Title: Classic style
Review: I read this book twice. The first time it seemed a lovely story with vivid characters, and I saw myself reading it to my grandkids. The second time I read it for myself, to understand the story deep within the book and the messages.I equate this book with Charlotte's Web and The Velveteen Rabbit for its appeal to all ages.

Title: Lovely and refreshing.
Review: I liked this book very much. My favorite pages were 62 and 63. Very thoughtful and special message there for all. The prayer Little One prayed is one to remember. Very lovely and refreshing - a nice break from reality. Thanks to Ann Marquette for giving us this book. I think both children and adults can appreciate it.

Title: A Fraud
Review: "Crying Wind" is a fraud. The story is not true and she is not Native American. Her story was thoroughly debunked years ago (Moody Press pulled the book from their line as a result) yet people continue to be taken in by it. Enjoy it as fiction if you like but please don't view it as anything other than the fanciful creation of Linda Stafford.

Title: Nothin' But a Bad Time
Review: You don't want this. Trust Me. Poison made a good party band. Their ability to headline tours nearly 20 years since their prime will attest to that. However, when they tried to take themselves too seriously, the party was over. With Native Tounge, CC Deville was gone, they brought in a guitar prodigy (Ritchie Kotzen) and they tried to get bluesy. No thanks. Unless you already have Poison's first two partied-up releases, their third so-so release, and you just have plain bad taste in music, leave this turkey in the cut-out bin.

Title: OKAY!
Review: I owned this C.D. for A couple of years , and well with the exception oftwo Songs I never cared for the C.D. . It was not the Poison that I fellIn Love with in 1986 "Look What The Cat Dragged In" . However like I said two songs on this C.D. I did like , yet "Stand" the only one of thetwo that was ever released , or played much of . It is my Opinion thatthe Song " Bodytalk" should have been another Hit from this C.D.

Title: I was proud of the guys
Review: I know it must have been such a shock for the guys in Poison to experience C.C.'s departure. Considering all the years they had been together! I was really proud of the guys for 'picking up the pieces,' moving forward and putting out this new album. I was attending college at the time and a local radio station broadcast the entire album live from start to finish. It was late at night but I still wanted to stay up to hear the new disc. Although "Native Tongue" Poison was certainly a different sounding band than their prior records, I was pleased with the results. Years later I am still fascinated with these songs, especially, "Bastard Son of 1000 blues," "Theatre of the Soul" and "Until You Suffer Some."

Title: Not Poison - Which is a good reason to like it.
Review: Here's my thing: When you think of "Poison," you think of 80's glam/punk. This album is NOT from that, ummmm, idiom. The songs on Native Tongue are just damn good - meaningful lyrics, mature song structures, and loaded with hooks. The guitars are both blues-inflected and shred-era based, which makes Richie's style and sound both fresh and familiar at the same time. This album is NOT the Poison you may know and love, but then, for me that's a good thing.

Title: Great idea, poor design
Review: This started out as a great little item. I ended up returning it the first time I had to replace the batteries (about 2 months later). Once the old batteries were removed, everything was reset, and I had to reset the time, month, year, and even had to re-calibrate the compass. What a pain, and not worth the money. If I only had to reset the calendar, that would be fine, but having to re-calibrate the compass is a pain.

Title: Worth the money
Review: I have been using the product for a few years now for painful knees. I am now back to jogging every day and I believe this product helped me recover. The company is bit pushy, but they have the best product in my opinion if you believe you have damaged cartilidge.For a problem like this, which is related to damaged cartilidge, recovery can take a long time. Patience is key, as is doing the right type of exercises. If you have painful knees, strengthening the quadriceps is very important. Try going up stairs backwards, jogging backwards. This pulls the patella upwards, very crucial to healthy knees. Also, do not run with fancy overly cushioned shoes. Use minimal shoes: I recommend the book "Born to Run" by McDougal[...].

Title: Not worth it
Review: I'm a runner who regularly uses hyaluronic acid as part of my daily supplements and exercise regime. I normally buy the hyaluronic/glucosamine compound from another manufacturer (Source Naturals), but I had heard a program on my local talk radio station in which they advertised this H.A. Joint complex by Purity Products as the best in the market. I decided to give Purity Products a try. It is all a LIE! After almost a month of taking this sugar pill, my joints (especially my knees, shoulders and hands) are more stiff and achy than normal. Don't spend money on this, it just doesn't work. Even after taking the recommended dosage, and I'm still in a lot of pain, and now have developed little bruises on my knees after exercising or running. I'll never purchase this product again. I'm going back to the product I used before, which has noticeable effects after about 2 days of use. Don't waste your money on this...

Title: It works for me
Review: I avoided the "free" offer that others have complained about, and that probably adds a lot to my rating of this product. I had to take it for several weeks before it had any effect, and I am not entirely convinced that it wasn't just the passage of time that cured my aching joints, but I have been pretty much ache-free for many months now, so I plan to keep buying it for now. This is not a rave review, but overall it seems to be pretty good.

Title: A beautiful read
Review: A travel memoir written in the late 1930s - and 1000 years ago. It's a beautifully written, gentle book of a harsh land and its tribal peoples. Stark, is both poet and pragmatist. More musings and personal interactions than places and things, the book is a pleasure to read and savor. I wonder if the history of the Middle East wouldn't be improved had the colonial powers been guided by her sympathetic but unblinking understanding of Arab village and bedouin cultures.

Review: This is an excellent book written in the form of a memoir. Sue Silverman can weave together words quite eloquently. You can sense her soul as she tell the most horrific abuses she endured at the hands of her own father. It is sad, and will bring tears to even the most hardened of souls. I commend her for being courageous and sharing her most painful moments with us readers. She is worthy of praise.

Title: I Know Its A True Story, But...
Review: I know this is a true story, but it was so boring. The author was beating around the bush in telling the story. The reader just had to really assume what the father was doing to her. I was so frustrated with the book that I never even finished it. When I'm reading I want the whole story; do not beat around the bush with me. I tried very hard to stay focused. I read two long chapters and I couldn't take it anymore. Sorry, but it didn't keep my attention.Later...

Title: The Best Book I've read about Sexual Abuse
Review: There is a reason why this book has such a high customer rating. I have never read such a well written and beautifully articulated story of horrendous abuse. I read ALOT of books on this subject. None can compare. It addresses the subject of incest by a father and an enabling mother. It speaks of her relationship with her parents well after the abuse has ended. Anyone who must, or choose, to stay in relationship with their abuser will relate to this. There is much to connect with in her story. Buy it quickly!

Title: Fluke 971
Review: I am an HVAC contractor and check condenser charges multipe times a day. My 971 is off by 4.7 degrees on dry bulb and I now question if the wet bulb reading is correct. I have owned this meter for less that 2 years and I am displeased that it has gotten out of calibration or the capacitance sensor is out all ready. I sent Fluke an email asking what the cost of repair is, have not gotten a reply yet. I must buy another for my business and cannot wait for the time span of repair. I am looking at an Extech RH350.

Title: Great information that puts things in perspective
Review: "Getting a Clue" is actually a very informative. I was amazed at the concepts being addressed and how easily the subject was to understand. This book is a real eye opener and a fantastic tool for anyone that works with teenagers. I was a bit put off by the price however found the information worth the cost. This is one of those books you will want to keep around because it applies to so many people. I thought it was great to identify the behavior issues in my co-workers. It is written to deal with teens but it works on adults also. Good book for managers or anyone that supervises others.

Title: Based on Fallacy that reading IS natural!
Review: Spelling and reading have only been around for about 5000 years. Language is innate because it has been around for 30,000 to 40,000 years. Spelling and reading aren't natural. Ask any dyslexic. If we treat all children as if the act of reading is natural and they'll just 'soak' it up... then we are dooming 15-20% of them to failure. Both basal and whole language programs FAIL these children. Wake up and teach them, please.Check out realspelling.com with Melvyn Ramsden. Spelling is cognitive in conception and execution. TEACHING IT IS ESSENTIAL FOR MANY STUDENTS'SUCCESS.

Title: unjustly maligned record
Review: I am surprised at the beating the Quintessence releases have received. Stan and his band are in fine form, so even without Chet Baker this would be a solid CD. True, Chet's contributions are minimal in parts but he gets plenty of opportunities to shine--and Getz rarely steps over him, as many have stated. Perhaps the knowledge of underlying tension between Getz and Baker cause many to not listen with an open mind. That would be a shame, since even though Getz/Baker were not a match made in heaven as it would have seemed, this release is a valuable document of a collaboration that would soon end--much to the dismay of this listener.

Title: A Classic in the Study of Jesus
Review: "Consider Jesus" is a rather short, deceptively humble book that covers every theory in answering that crucial question Jesus asks his followers and those who may have heard of him: "Who do you say I am?"I have studied this book as part of a college theology class and then more slowly read it on my own. Elizabeth Johnson presents a well-considered feast for the intellect and the soul in presenting her own theological reflections in answer to that important question.This book is small but it is a classic in modern theology.

Title: Undreaded
Review: I took a shot at this CD based on the reviews, hey the used ones were cheap, but I didn't like it. I'm a Zep & Elvis fan, but not a Bob Marley fan, maybe that's why I found the Reggae & Hindu beats ponderous. The goofy sound effects were a bit too much for me-they took me right out of the music and sound like something a stoned pothead would want to listen to while smokin' his stuff. There's something strangely natural about a combination of Elvis & Led Zeppelin, maybe it's because Zep loved to do the King's songs at their live shows, I dunno, but this CD would have appealed to me more if it had been done as a straight up Elvis impression of Zeppelin songs without the sound effects, breaks, and nonsense. The band seems to have the skills to sound good, they just waste their talent on this half-baked album.

Title: I've found a new place to dwell... it's called Heartbreaker Hotel
Review: What a riot! Part parody, majorly in homage, DREAD ZEPPELIN is a great band! If you are a fan of LED ZEPPELIN, you will appreciate the subtle referencing on this album (such as the opening guitar moan of "In My Time Of Dying" appropriated to open "Your Time Is Gonna Come.") DREAD ZEPPELIN is indeed a cover band that interprets their ZEPPELIN covers through Reggae with an ELVIS impersonator for a frontman. Much better than it sounds, and almost certainly a must for LED fans, you will be glad you took the chance; doubt it? Check out DREAD ZEPPELIN's "Heartbreaker" video at youtube, a track which interpolates "Heartbreaker" with "Heartbreak Hotel." Just great Rock 'n Roll!

What's not to love?Well, unless you're not into one of the triumverate mentioned above, or don't have a sense of humor about them.But it's worth a spin - the Dreads and Tortelvis are musically talented, and , context aside, the album's got a good beat, and you can really bug out to it.It would be 5 stars, but that would require a guest appearance from either the King, John Bonham, or Bob Marley.

Title: annoying
Review: While the box looks pretty good, it mostly delivers confusion. Like any 3D program it will take a lot of computer to run the program quickly in 3D, which can be annoying after spending an hour designing your house. The symbols for furniture, fixtures and cabinets often insert at odd angles and are almost impossible to get squared up with the walls. I have even had a bug where it will not display all colors in the 3D mode (you enter you roof and wall colors). Looked good in 2D, but everything was shades of green in 3D. My advise: save your money and buy some graph paper and a pencil. This is a sketching program only, and it doesn't do it very well.

Title: Does NOT perform as the 'box' claims it will
Review: I was very disappointed with this product. Not only was it the most expensive home product, but it was the largest waste of money. Forget 'designing' the interior of your house! NO paneled doors, no arched windows, no french doors, only one type of shower, no washer or dryer to be placed in the house just to name a few things missing from their 'large selection.' The 'furniture design suite' is not easy to operate. The so-called instruction manual fails to give any instructions. My computer is a Pentium 500 and I have 64 megs ram-the program still would not let me do 3-D walkthrough-it was 3-D standstill. The paint,fabric,floor options were from 1960 (all 10 of them). This program is terrible! I will be purchasing something else for sure! A plus side: lets you scan in a plan and trace it. After you trace the plan, the fun is over. Forget doing anything but outlining you "dream home."

Title: Okay for beginners....
Review: This is the first home planning software I've ever bought. I found most of it difficult to use until I got accustomed to the program. There are some features I wish it had such as more 'undo' options and more home plans. I wouldn't have bought it if I'd known beforehand that it only had 20+/- of it's own house plans that you could alter. Several other similar programs boast 100's of home plans that you can alter to your tastes. Regardless, it's a good program if you want to be able to "build" your home, design the interior, and landscape the outside and fairly simple to use.

You'll notice that all the samples have the same roof lines. You cannot create true gables. You cannot create anything pretty much out of the ordinary in fact. Try drawing a barn for example. And walls are a problem when you want anything that is not ordinary. Try drawing a knee wall. You cannot specify individual wall height. They have a good concept and an easy api, but ease of use is no substitute for basic features. I am disappointed.

Title: Just a toy; a broken toy
Review: I really hate to be so critical but the thing with Punch is they promised so much and just didn't deliver. One reviewer mentioned that they offer a nice variety of doors, windows, etc. Well, there were three deck shapes to choose from. Is that Variety? And while you could adjust the shapes somewhat, I couldn't get it to accept exact measurements. Now how can you build something without exact measurements? Oh, did I mention I live on a slope? Punch doesn't do decks on a slope. Everytime I tried to adjust the deck to the slope - it started to build a house with a basement. There were only a few stair types and only 1-2 places I could place the stairs. Forget about stairs with a landing that change direction. And all the stairs had fixed heights - which is really ridiculous. This software was time consuming and a waste of money.Let me add, I did not try the scanning feature - so I can't say how that works.

Title: too hard!
Review: ok i totally want to be a home desinger/architect when i grow up. So i asked my brother for design stuff and he gave me this. I thought it was easy at first with the walls, windows and doors. But the flooring thing never works and staring at the 12 chapter "help" booklet doesnt "help" very much. they tell you what to do but not how. I'm sure this isnt a kids game but my dad is a genius and he tried it an he cant even figure it out. I wouldnt tell other people to buy it.

Title: Severely broken
Review: I bought this software 2 weeks ago, and I have yet to get it installed in a way that makes the "3D Furniture Workshop" part of it functional. When I launch that component (which is required in order to resize the stock furniture pieces or create new ones) it tells me the names of two DLLs that it is unable to load, even though they do exist in c:\windows and c:\windows\system, respectively. Since it cannot locate these DLLs, all 3D rendering is disabled, and in fact 2D viewing also displays only a blank screen. Punch's supoort e-mail takes 3 days to reply to e-mail, and the telephone support number is not open on week-ends or evening.I cannot return it to the store, because I had thrown out thepackage before I realized the problem. Based on the information in the reviews here on Amazon, I will ask Punch for a refund.

Title: Don't waste your money!!
Review: I only bought this because I want to put new siding on my house and this listed so many custom colors... on the outside of the box. However, it is false. It gives you a handful of siding colors and that is IT!!, Interior you can do multiple colors to your walls, exterior LIMITED, LIMITED, LIMITED. You can't even add a trim piece to the exterior. Would never use to actually plan and build a house - EVER. Not good for much except frustration.

Title: NT Users Beware
Review: I have a fairly high-speed NT system, and although the 3.51 product is advertised as being compatible with NT, it's not. The software completely hangs up my computer every time I do a 3-D viewing. Customer service was polite, but useless. I'm glad there's a money-back warrantee!

Title: Worst movie ever
Review: I'm sorry, but this movie is pure and utter [unacceptable material]. ... The acting and the screenplay is horrible, with lines like "You're belly is like a sack of hay," not to mention Burt Lancaster walks around like he's bigfoot toward the end of the movie. Get serious people, go see a "good" movie. ... If you want to know how "The Swimmer" was meant to be shown, go read the short story. It's a lot better.

Title: Frank Perry Magic
Review: Much of this film was shot In Connecticut near the Wilton Ct. area.This was in 1966, scenes were added/ directed by Sidney Pollack . Columbia execs did not know what to do with this film at all. After a brief theatrical release in 1968/9 it was syndicated to ABC, which was showing late movies at the time.The Late Frank Perry also did " Last Summer" 1969 , a haunting film that is a must see as well as " David and Lisa" 1962.Joan Rivers:( to Lancaster ne Ned Merril) " What are you doing"? Merrill" I,m swimming home" Rivers: "I,ve never heard that before" Merrill:" Come with me be my love"! Rivers: "THAT..I.,ve heard before"Thats just a sample of the abstract dialogue.. A superb first score by Marvin Hamlisch.Great Film

Title: dude, this is must see tv!
Review: i totally thought that biodome was the most excellent movie, but that was until i rented the swimmer. i gotta give props to burt lancaster! he rocks! the experience was life changing. once as a younger man i tried to swim across my own pool and was sadly defeated and to think that this dude made it across ten. like whoa! swimming is not easy. that part where the llama comes out of nowhere and chases him, that was so intense, i was so scared. luckily for him that chinchilla was around to save the day. the way the blood poured out of that llama, not for those with weak stomachs. that's not even the best part, but if you want to know the rest rent the movie. two tumbs way up. quality entertainment. love and peace out.

Title: KEEP THESE BOOKS IN PRINT
Review: If he just kept these books in print then everyone could "enjoy" his work, but instead anythig with the Mark Ryden name is quickly grabbed up and hocked on eBay at ridiculously inflated prices. And ENOUGH with the creepy little girl paintings already. Is this something Mr. Ryden picked up when he did the album artwork for Michael Jackson "Dangerous"? So overrated, total HYPE. Like (some of) the art; hate the BS hype machine he drives.

Title: Awfully boring
Review: I read this because the author was born near where I live, and is a well-known Iowa author. It tells of a minister and his family coming to the new Iowa town and staying two years. There is nothing except blandness for the first 200 pages and very little excitement even after that. Most of the time is spent telling how a six year old boy is infatuated by the minister's six year old daughter. Other than being bored spitless by the non-happenings related, one can revel in what life was like before cars in an Iowa small town. There will be no shock to your sensibilities in this book, and when you get to the last page you will be glad so that you can read something less bland.

Title: Clunky.. Shovel-ware
Review: Be Warned They CHARGE for Call in support now!!In my opinion; Norton used to make some great products. I used to recommend their Norton Utilities and Anti Virus programs to friends and install them on computers I assembled for them. Sadly, this has changed. They now have an online forum where you are forced to ask your questions. They may even get around to answering your question, but it takes days to get correct answers (if ever). The quality of their software has plummeted also. Several other companies make similar products that are FAR superior. Not only do I not give them a positive review, I strongly recommend you do NOT use them.

Title: Dress up a 10/22 a little...
Review: The recoil from a 10/22 isn't going to hurt anyone no matter how many rounds you fire. I got this because it adds an extra 1.5" to the length of pull on this tiny little gun, and it serves that purpose very well. It screwed in as a direct replacement for the metal butt-piece, and matches up fairly close to the stock. There are some edges and bumps where it doesn't fit all that well, but that doesn't affect function. A useful piece if you are a tall person who likes to plink and doesn't want to buy a custom stock.

Title: Caution about the Title
Review: When I purchased this book (incidentally, it's a paperback), I believed that it would be a history of Stewart and Hyder. Actually, it is more of a church history of Stewart and Hyder. It was interesting to browse through since I had visited this area, but I was more interested in the town history rather than religious activity in the area.It's a paperback book, the cover is a color aerial view of Hyder and Stewart, there are some black and white photos in the book.

Title: My cat LOVES this toy!
Review: My cat has a fetish for stuffed and padded things (hangers, bras, stuffed animals). She's destroyed 2 of these over the course of a couple of years, so I've just ordered several more. They're fairly durable considering that she gnaws on poor ol' Dubya like he's beef jerky. A really good toy for chewers.

Review: This CD is the best collection of Japanese lullabies/children's songs I have come across. Both the singing and the koto accompaniment have a beautiful dreamlike quality. I also appreciate that many of the songs are sung both in Japanese and English, which helps introduce Japanese to my American-born children.

Title: Charles McClain is the best that ever did it!
Review: I agree with the other reviewers Wiillie Neal Johnson and the Gospel Keynotes were a awesome gospel group .I grew up listening to the gospel keynotes and this album is one of their best compilation of those old favorites but I do disagree with one reviewer whosays that Paul Beasley was the best high tenor ever well I beg to differ Charles McClain was the Best that ever did it he had more range and could hold that note until he or Willie was ready for him to turn it a loose.Charles McClain came from a family gospelmusic group called the Gospelaires from Dayton Ohio he joined the group for a short period after Paul Beasley left the group.Rev. Charles McClain in my opinion the Best of the Best.

Title: Not very kid friendly
Review: My eight year old son has a great interest in cooking, is a good reader, and a very knowledgable computer nerd :-). But even so, this CD was poorly organized and required constant intervention and help from me. We both quickly lost interest. My son learns more about cooking and recipes from watching the cooking section on "ZOOM". This was a real disappointment because I use DVO's Recipe/Meal Planner software and was very impressed with that. However, this is not the same quality as the adult software DVO makes.

Title: McGuffey's Electric Readers: Phonetic Edition
Review: I highly recommend this particular edition of McGuffey because it included the self-pronouncing (dictionary diacritical) marks. The original edition lacks this important feature. I also recommend the Spelling Book that goes with this edition. The value of the self-pronouncing edition is that the students will learn to read with phonic-first. This eliminates guessing from memorized sight-words and context that plagues practically all of today's school reading methods.
