0	Alright	The keys break easily, and the lock seized up after about a year of use, but it took me an hour and a half to saw through the lock with a hacksaw when I needed to get it off. I guess that means it's good?	negative
1	The Tales of Tiptoes Lightly	This is a wonderful book for 5 to 8 year olds. Children delight in Tiptoes' little adventures and friends. Each story is short and charming and the children want more and more. Every book in the Tiptoes series is delightful. The pictures are simple black and white drawings. Children will love to talk about Tiptoes and make their own colorful drawings of her and her friends. Our 5 year old shines with delight with every story.	positive
1	Aspire NAVIGATOR	I wanted to see this thing in person so I stopped by Aspire's home office in City of Industry, CA. to have a look at this bad boy. A gentleman by the name of Scott gave me a tour of the show room and I have to say that I was very impressed with the Aluminum NAVIGATOR case and all the bells and whistles. Scott dimmed the lights in the display room and the NAVIGATOR looked like it was coming in for a landing at LAX! I had planned to buy the black front but found myself really impressed with how the RED coordinated with the lighting and the black case. Scott informed me not to worry about the color because the price on the aluminum case included (2) additional colored scheme panels so I could change colors whenever I liked! I selected RED with my order and received black and silver as well. The aluminum case also comes with a 500 watt supply and additional cooling. All this was well worth the cost between the steel and aluminum cases. Overall I was extremely impressed.	positive
1	mr. dylan's revolution	mr. dylan again reinvents himself and again stirs a revolution. all right, so it's not newport and, no, not as many people were paying attention in 1992 when this album hit the stands, but it sent shockwaves through the musical world. bob dylan had gone back acoustic! this collection of folk songs and blues is powerful from start to finish, with mr. dylan reminding the world that he is an incredible musician, not just an icon. his guitar work is impeccable and his singing as eccentric as ever, but moving in its emotionalism. you feel the plight of the ballads' characters (highlights: frankie and albert, blackjack davey, and the chestnut, froggie went a-courtin'). the blues sound like they are right from the delta (check out "sitting on top of the world," in particular). mr. dylan's return to his roots reveal they are deep and healthy. enjoy the record!	positive
1	Other hippopotami	This short board-book consists of less than 50 words, but they are special words by one of the funniest poets who ever lived.Kids delight in the 14 pages of colorful Mark Corcoran watercolors, that illustrate the "moments dark and grim" of "how we look to him" and the fact that hippos probably "delight the eye/ Of other hippopotami."This literary feast for babies and toddlers is totally terrific! Alyssa A. Lappen	positive
1	What can I say but GREAT!	This book picks off right were daughter of the drow left off. The main characters from the first book come back (even Shakti). The plot was wonderful and cunnigham realy did a nice job with this book. and best of all the book gives you the feeling of a satisfactory ending. I'm not saying I hope there aren't more, cause I hope there are. But with Daughter of the Drow I felt the ending was a real cliffhanger, Cunninham realy improves here.	positive
0	No bang for the buck	I got this table to allow me to use the portable as a stationary at home. I looked at all the reviews over and over. I found it on Grizzly just a few dollars cheaper. This is way overpriced in the 1st place. Then it is without the tools it is to have with it. Most of all there was not one pic of set of instructions as to how this this goes together.I bought it mainly for the name and the fact I found no other table out there. I found you can placed the band saw in a vise and hold and operate it that way and much cheaper. I will return itI also found that you could not use the saw in up right or vertical because the saw has to be mounted up side down so the table is not usable.	negative
1	Alone on a distant world.	Imagine landing on a strange deserted planet then encountering a series of other beings whom are as marooned as you. The title refers to one of the characters not the Bard himself. On the psychedelic edge of sci fi.	positive
0	Advertisements Misleading	I bought the Church Supper Cookbook after seeing the ad that came in the mail with beautiful looking pictures. I also tried the Barbara's Peachy Chicken & it was delicious! However, once I received the book, I found out that there are absolutely NO pictures in the book at all. With all the pictures in the ad, it led me to believe there would be pictures in the book.I must admit that I am one of those non-professional every-day cooks that wants to see how it looks before I attempt to try it. So I was very disappointed.	negative
0	It didn't hold our attention	We decided to view this video before buying it. It is not worth buying to us. We view many animated movies and buy for ourselves or one of our families. We feel this video would not hold the interest of any child we know.	negative
1	Great set! Crappy price practices!	This is a really great set from Fox. The prints are fantastic and the extras are really interesting. The Moto films are forgotten classics and it is great that viewers can now discover or rediscover them!The only negative comment involves Amazon's pricing practices of late. Like many others, I preordered this from Amazon and was punished for doing so by being charged $42...today, the price went down to $36! Pick it up for this price, by all means. I will be cautious of preordering anything from Amazon in the future. I would recommend that you do the same.	positive
1	Good profile of the legendary singer	The most striking thing about this movie, and something that has been widely mentioned with good reason, are the spectacular performances of the movie's lead characters, Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon. Their acting is tremendous, but as Johnny Cash and June Carter they do their own singing as well, and pull it off remarkably well. I believe Cash's voice to be inimitable, but Phoenix makes a very good attempt.Most of the movie's entertainment value comes from the music--the singing throughout is certainly the highlight. The movie dragged a bit for me at times, but for the most part flowed fairly well, and some of the most interesting events in Cash's life (his introduction to Folsom while in the Air Force, touring with Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, and others, etc) are chronicled well. Johnny's pill-popping addiction seemed a bit drawn out to me, however. Despite this fact, however, this was a very entertaining movie and certainly worthwhile.	positive
1	Pilot was OK... But it's full speed ahead from there.	The early episodes really hit the ground running. Still shocked ABC didn't see the potential of this series. Mostly tied up with a Bow by the end of Season. Sad they didn't have a chance to work in more about the Nuke conspiracy. Course it was probably best to strick with the Crew... since they have to question if the Captain is right/wrong.	positive
1	A Great Soundtrack to a Classic Film	Being a lover of Stanley Kubricks' movies, I saw "Lolita" for the first time about a year ago and absolutely loved it!The soundtrack is a great compliment to the film. It took me quite sometime to get "Lolita Ya-Ya" out of my head after seeing the movie. The soundtrack also includes dialogue diectly from the movie which I thought was great. "Shelly Winters Cha-Cha" remains one of my favorite songs ever, and I always picture that scene whenever I hear the song play.The inlay of the CD is great and has extensive notes and pictures from the film and notes regarding the soundtrack. They really did a great job remastering the soundtrack. If you loved "Lolita" as much as I did, I would definitely pick up a copy of this soundtrack.	positive
0	Mind Bogglingly Bad	It's impossible to overstate how bad this movie is. Until this film came along, I'd never walked out of a movie in the theater before, but we were gone inside of 45 minutes. Watch at your own risk.	negative
0	If you've been given nothing-- its hard to give back	This book feeds pain bodies. The author gave me nothing but a string of negative incidents where her parents were neglectful and or feeding their addictions and being quirky and or mentally ill. It was boring. There is so much more to this story but Walls' holds back, most likely because it will be in another edition which her happy readers will buy into, and once again you will get only half a story. In my humble opinion it is half a book, and appeals to the voyeurs in us. If you are feeling sad in any way dont read this book.	negative

1	Manner of Death by Stephen White	Love it, I am catching up mid-series. Every book is such an easy read and suspenseful, love the characters!	positive
0	No Customer Service	These shears state that they have a lifetime warranty. Good luck getting one replaced. If you call the number all you get is the how important you are message. So far this time I have been listening to the message for over 25 min. If you purchase them plan on the handle breaking after a short while and then throwing them away. No customer service at all.	negative
1	Good Info	This book offered a lot of helpful information about detoxification through fasting. It gave me step by step, what to do to cleanse my body through fasting. However, I had read more than half of the book before I actually got any usable information. For such a small book, I thought it would be packed with info and how-to's on detoxification, but it constantly tells you to buy her other book "How to Feel Great All The Time". If you do lots of research on holistic health as I do, there is a lot of general information about eating healthy and such in this book, which I already know a lot about. If you know nothing about holistic health, this book will be an eye-opener.	positive
0	Put me to sleep... but now without trying my patience first!	I tried hard, really hard to like this book. After all I paid 8 dollars for it before boarding my plane. I like historical romances but this is among the cornier, least believable and carcicatured characters ever. If I had to read the male character say "oh god", "my god", "dear god" etc or talk about the lust in his loins one more time I would have thrown the book out the plane. And let's not even talk about manner in which the lead characters talk, completely out of place with the early 19th century. I suggest historical romance readers try Judith McNaught or Marion Chesney for their spunky, endearing characters with fun and lively plots.	negative
0	Don't be fooled by Amazon	They advertise the Toshiba 32DF46 32" Pure Flat, but they will deliver the Toshiba 32D46 32" which is a round tube. I had to send it back twice which took more than a month. They cancelled my order by saying they are correcting the problem, but as you can see they are still trying to bait and switch. No wonder the price is lower than other places.	negative
1	THIS WAS SOOO COOL! THIS ROCKS!	Coyotes and shapeshifters...whoa! I loved this book it was really good! I read it in one day! It made me feel I wanted to read on! The new characters were cool like Rose and it went into detail about the corpse which I love! The main characters like Buffy, Willow and Xander were so cool in this one and funny at the same time! I recomend this book to all Buffy fans! Shame I can't vote more than five! If you don't like this you suck! This book is the best! I loved the coyotes when they dug the graves up and how Buffy said to the carnie worker she wanted to hurl when she was snooping! The part when they said coyote moon was back as well was the best. So get out your house and buy this now! PS get child of the hunt as well!	positive
0	A waste of time	This movie was just terrible! Exactly the same as the very POOR The Thin Red Line. More of a Calvin Kline commercial than an entertaining movie. This director should not be allowed anywhere near a movie set!!	negative
1	Wonderful book for beginners	WIth some trepidation, I tried this with my daughter (nearly 5 yrs) who is very enthusiastic about learning recorder. It was a great success due to its clear, simple layout. It is very satisfying for beginners to feel they rapidly progress to playing 'real' tunes -- including tunes with two player parts and words! Also, basic musical concepts -- clef, rests, measures are systematically introduced. I learned recorder in the 70s and remember my book as being fairly simple, but it did not offer the swift learner satisfaction that this one does, while building a solid foundation. Because of the range of tunes introduced, I think it would also work perfectly well for adults without being boring, and can help anyone who previously hasn't learned notation. Strongly recommended all round.	positive
0	Towels	Popcorn 3-Piece Kitchen Towel Set, RedThese towels are nice-looking, but I won't buy them again. I use them as kitchen hand towels, and they aren't as thick as I would like. The red towel faded a bit in the first washing.	negative

1	Great Player, But No DTS	This is a great DVD player. Not going to echo all the great previous reviews, just wanted to say, believe them. A great player that plays almost anything.My one reservation is that this player doesn't play DTS audio.Specifically, it doesn't flag the DTS signal as it should. So many A/V Recievers won't recognize the DTS signal and play it. Some recievers are smart enough to figure out on their own that the audio signal is unflagged DTS and they will decode it properly, but many don't, so you're left with no DTS audio. This is an error that Philips really should correct, hopefully through a firmware update.So, if you're considering this for use in a DTS home theater setup, please keep this in mind. If not, then enjoy it. It's a great little machine.	positive
1	Patience CD	I was worried because I had ordered an old outdated CD and it was used as well. It arrived earlier than anticipated and I was thrilled to find out in exceelent condition.	positive
0	Good but very short life span	I bought 3 of these and also bought about 14 of the 5300 model. These more expensive cameras with an optical zoom lens seemed to be good at first but they all eventually failed in the same way. The video has gone completely black on all three after about a year. The audio stil works and I suppose I could still use them as a 2-way comunication device, but that expensive color video with zoom is now useless. I tried running one again today just in case... but no luck. Same problem. Looking on the web I see that others have the same problem. This is the most expensive d-link product that I have bought and most disapointing. I was hoping that someone out there may know a way to fix them but I have not seen an answer on the web.	negative
1	Can anyone answer this question????	Is The Master Mariner the same as The Master Mariner Running Proud. Their reviews look the same, and I wonder if it's the same book published with different titles. Can someone help me?	positive
1	Reviewing "Antigone"	I do believe I have become a true fan of the old Greek classics (and I am inspired to seek out classic Greek plays). "Antigone" is an excellent read, entertaining, and gives a detailed account into the lives and personalities of the daughters of Oedipus, expecially Antigone. Antigone, as portrayed in "Oedipus Rex" is a child who weeps for her parents, her brothers, and her country after the unfolding of tragic events. In "Antigone" she's up close and personal as a young woman brave and daring. She is willing to risk her life to defend what remains of family honor.	positive
1	good performances	the best terms to describe this performances are clean and spacious. Romeo and Juliet, recorded at Watford Town Hall, recieved 3 stars from penguin guide(3 being the highest score given by them). It is true that the The Tempest it is a little bit in the cool side, but still it's a good performance. It's kind of neat that these works were couple together as "Fantasias after Shakespeare" and for that price. I think it filled nicely that hole that I had in my collection.	positive
1	wish I'd started using it 5 years ago	I have two litter mates. One can eat anything with no problem. The other always vomits ten minutes after eating, no matter what she eats: canned or dried makes no difference and I've tried every store brand there is. Hairball treatments had no effect. I figured "cats throw up" and didn't worry about it. When I moved and switched vets the new vet asked if the cats ever threw up. When she heard about the one cat she said cats do NOT just throw up and told me to get the Science Diet sensitive stomach food. Yes, it's 4x the price of what I'd been buying, but I noticed a difference with the first bowl. Instead of throwing up ten minutes after literally every meal, now she throws up maybe once a month. If only I'd switched to this brand years ago we both would have been saved a lot of misery. Even tho it costs more I've noticed that the bag seems to last longer than the same amount of cat chow did.	positive
0	Not the quality of other supplements	My wife and I have been taking Natrol's 600 mg Alpha Lipoic Acid. I saw this "deal" on Amazon and decided to go for it. We have both noticed that the pill seemed to start dissolving about halfway down the esophagus. It distinctly burns on the way down. This was not the case with the higher dose from Natrol. I never once experienced that, but we both do with this one.I would steer clear of this one. I haven't tried everything out there, but was really happy with the Natrol.	negative
1	influential to the Quarrymen	Reading John Lennon biographies, I feel this is the kind of music that he enjoyed listening to. This is some of the best "Rock and Roll" that I've heard him or anyone, for that matter, play. This album is f****** great!	positive
0	Incompatable patched through VCR	Because the DVD Player only has RCA type A/V outputs I knew it would not be able to hook directly to my older TV that only has a single cable input, however I expected I could at least run it through my VCR's A/V connections first as a bridge to the TV. WRONG, The DVD player emits some kind of copyright protection signal that messes up your picture when patched through a VCR and it even says so in the instructions. Is this what copy protection has come to? Its unfortuneate because like me, many people purhacing a unit in this price are just looking for an inexpensive add on to thier same basic and common set up. There is a special adapter that can resolve this, but at a cost almost as much as the DVD player, whats the point?	negative
1	A brief critique of "Medical Harm"	This is a highly academic exacting discussion of how and why doctors damage some of their patients and the view of the profession of this type of injury. It is very accurate and well researched. It tends toward the end of the spectrum which blames the systems in place in medicine as opposed to the individual responsibility of the doctor. It is an important part of the debate about how to make medicine safer.	positive
0	Faulty equipment	I bought this for a flea problem i had but i got it and it was not hard to put together but the bulb blew out the next day i put it on and it would turn off during the night not sure if that is what it is supposed to do but I was not happy with it. Hope it worked for everyone else who got it. All i did was get Hot Raid bombs from walmart and flea powder and took my cat to get a flea bath and the fleas are all gone.	negative
1	Game	Great game, same style as old school and basic buttons not much to it but its still fun to play for hours	positive
1	Amazing woman	I loved this book. It was easy to read and extremely informative about the Jewish and Islamic way of life. It gave a great insight to life in the Middle East.	positive
1	Great Sterilizer	We bought this product based on the reviews that said it worked great with Dr. Brown's bottles. It does. After washing the bottles, we can fit 6 bottles and all the accessories for the bottles in this sterilizer and just pop it into the microwave (after adding the 7 ounces water which we measure with one of the bottles). We have not had any problems with the sterilizer, and it definitely beats boiling bottles. We have been very happy with this sterilizer, so much so that when we traveled somewhere for Christmas and didn't take it with us, we had to go to the store and purchase another one just to use while on vacation.	positive
1	A great deal.	I needed a dictionary for Scrabble.I really can't think of a better one to have for all occasions and uses.I got a great deal because the dust cover had a little tear that was repaired with tape.Paid less than half retail.I'm very happy with this purchase.	positive
0	Uhh...Was it just me or did nothing happen in this movie?	My first thought when the end credits started to role was: What the h--- was that? I wish I had read the reviews of this movie before I purchased it so I could have saved my [money] and bought a movie with a story. Granted this has everything every hard core anime fan wants; decapitations, dismembering and gratuitious sex, but there was just no point to the movie. Just as an interesting story starts to form, the movie's over. You never know anything about the main character except that he did something horrible in his past.... Then there's the ridiculously pointless assassin who shows up in the middle of the film.... Nothing explained, nothing concluded. Add the confounding pointlessness of this movie to the fact that it's not even 50 minutes long, and all you get is a big waste of money and bigger dissapointment. Two stars for creative deaths, zero stars for story and point. Bottom line: Don't bother....	negative
1	The British and their music	This CD offers an excellent sampler of traditional British music. If you have watched Chariots Of Fire you will recognize Jerusalem By Parry(the final scene at Harold Abraham's funeral). This is a beautiful selection. The Tam O'Shanter Overture dispells the often unjustified characterization of the stuffy Englishman and is a rousing piece. All in all a very enjoyable CD. Buy it!	positive
0	Not a very complete manual	Unfortunately I found this manual severely lacking. When working on a 1978 4.5hp the manual insists it has 2 sets of points, it has one. The information is too general to be of significant help.	negative

0	Failed to work properly	load up the carousel with 5 cd's and hit play, nothing happens. Cycle the power and it turns the carousel for awhile and hit play, nothing. When it does work, the repeat function fails. Sometimes it plays, most of the time it does not.	negative

1	The influence of intelligence on 20th-century war and politics	This is a rare wonderful, non-sensationalized, well-documented account of the influence of intelligence efforts--from traditional spying, through cryptology and high tech--on political and military currents in the 20th century. A notable aspect of the overarching story is the regularity with which credit for intelligence successes has been misappropriated by the ambitious and ruthless.	positive
0	COC made a lot of bad decisions regarding their vocalists.	Blind, paired with the previous EP (Technocracy), are easily COC's worst records. Both primarily because of embarassingly lousy vocalists. I don't know which is worse, Simon Bob Sinister's flacid & ineffectual whining on Tech, or Karl Agel's "No, really! I'm a rockstar!" godawful crooning on Blind. Now that I'm thinking about it, I'd really have to say that Blind is worse. It's a much longer recording. Still, Blind is almost worthwhile because of the one non-Karl song on it, Vote With A Bullet, which is sung by Pepper... the man who dragged COC out of the gutter and gave them a second chance.This album does have occasional moments of greatness in the instrumentation and songwriting, but for old time fans like me, it just screamed "HI, WE'RE CORROSION OF CONFORMITY, WE'RE TIRED OF BUSTING OUR HUMPS SLOGGING THE UNDERGROUND HARDCORE GRIND, AND WE'RE READY TO SELL OUT NOW, PLEASE!"	negative

1	Mambos, Sambas, Soundbites & Sirens...	Like fellow German, Funki Porcini, De-Phazz is a culture-vulture's pastiche dream! And you can't help but dance around the room to these upbeat snippety songs.The titular delight loops one chord progression and one sentence into a trippy trance that sends you right back to the "Ghost in the Invisible Bikini"-Don Kirshner "silly" songs of the sixties!It all ends with the slow croon, "Anchorless," which wouldn't be out of place on any adult-contemporary station. Those Germans have post-modernism down to a "T"!Also check out De-Phazz's "Death By Chocolate," and Funki Porcini's "Love, Pussycats & Carwrecks"!	positive

0	albert the apple eating appaloosa	I ordered this book because my grandson loves horses and is having trouble with reading. I thought this would be a great book for him to practice his reading. I was so disappointed when the book arrived. The packaging was fine but the text was terrible. The stories were disjointed and made no sense. I would not recommend this book to anyone. I could have returned the book for a refund but chose to keep it and use it as an example of the worst writing I have ever read in a published book.	negative

1	The Boggart, By Susan Cooper	In this book, Emily and Jessup come to see Castle Keep, and pick put furniture to bring home. By accident, the Boggart gets sent to their home too! With some friendship and courage, can Emliy and Jessup get the Boggart back home?I enjoyed this book because it was suspenseful and had a few funny parts. If you are into books about magic and tricky ghosts, you are in for a thrill when you read the Boggart, because that's what it's all about!	positive
0	Profiler preaches more than he probes	This book fufills the title's promise in that it provides an interesting if disturbing look at obessive and violent criminals, it fails to fulfill the promise, however, of telling us "How to Fight Back." Instead, the authors spend far too much time preaching about how shamefully we treat victims in this society (a premise with which I wholeheartedly agree). The authors' sharp and stilted writing style only serves to make this preaching feel more like an angry attack and less like an informed persuasive argument. I bought this book primarily for the "How to Fight Back" part the title promises and I was seriously disapointed as I read on and on, through all 384 pages of it, and never found more than the common sense instructions to be aware of my surroundings and to hopefully wait for society to take more responsibility for both victim and criminal.	negative
0	Does "No Mercy" ring a bell??	Didn't we see a bad Gere and Basinger movie in 1986 called No Mercy that was more or less like this one, even down to New Orleans. Besides that what was the author thinking...or maybe she wasn't thinking at all. God bless Remy, the amount of "trauma" in her life didn't make me empathize with her, but amused me because it was so contrived. If you want to enjoy a Brown, read "Where There's Smoke."Fat Tuesday is a whole of grease and no substance.	negative
0	My thoughts of this book	I realy didn't enjoy it that much. When it starts talking about golfing and about the characters its to borring. Well thats my opinion any ways. later on in the book it gets better. Oh ya there is also alot of punctuation eras in it.	negative
1	A strong and haunting movie	This powerful story takes up a few destinies that are affected by the horrors of the war and the oppressions that exist in a few conservative societies. The approach however is not a pessimistic one as there is strength and love that are derived from the difficult lessons and a light that is seen at the end of the tunnel.A strong and haunting movie.	positive
0	Cheap foam.	This seat is nothing more than low quality foam cut at an angle, but what did I expect for $14?I should have went with a higher quality one! I am just shocked at the great reviews, I have used mine for about a month now with no difference in my lower back and the cushion has really flattened a lot!!Hmm.. Sorry, but it didn't help me at all, if anything I feel worse off.	negative
0	not water proof	This item is not water proof in the least, a little rainy night on my way home from work and next day it was dead. Battery is a size I never seen before, cant find in stores. I gave a two because the lights worked find, the snap on system is sturdy - never fell off while ridding. I ended up going to my local bike shop and just saw a clip on light, bought it for a lot cheaper then this one and yes it is water proof.	negative
1	A Must Read for woman desiring a natural childbirth	I owe large part of my successful birthing experience to this book. I followed the advice helping me trust and reconnect with my body. I went into labor 9am and gave birth at 1pm.I gave birth at a birthing center which provided an environment that allowed me to be calm and apply the techniques that the book suggested. I am not sure this would have been the same in a hospital setting. But I will never know. My point is that it is important to be comfortable in you birthing environment in order to really connect with your body and apply the techniques. All I can say is I had a great experience and gave birth the way I wanted to, by applying the books advice. I highly recommend it to all my friends wanting a positive birthing experience.	positive

0	Obstacles to learning science	This book is organized well, but communicates its subjects poorly. It communicates so poorly, in fact, that it seems almost intended to throw obstacles in the way of learning.It is poorly written and includes (often) unhelpful illustrations. The text seems designed to obscure information rather than imparting information. It forces the reader to work too hard when searching for key information. Where tables would be helpful in comparing and contrasting key attributes of related phenomena, it includes few. Paragraphs often hide key points at the bottom, rather than using topic sentences and paragraph structures that help the reader.One would think the text was written in a foreign language and then translated into English. It seems like the "educators" who wrote this may be "experts" on education but novices at communication. The editorial staff must be asleep at the wheel, or more focused on style than substance.Truly awful.	negative
1	I Love your work! By far my all-time favorite author!	Since I was in middle school, I have became a huge fan of your work.

The only instructions that are included are in regards to the buttons on the player itself, and these instructions are extremely poorly written. I have asked to be able to return the player, but they will not accept it back. They say it has been too long since we bought it. But we were trying many times and many different ways to get the player to work, so that is why the time passed. Anyway, I am now stuck with this player that is absolutely worthless to me. Beware before purchasing this item!!! I would definitely not recommend it. My son has an Apple Ipod and it is extremely easy to use. Wish I had spent the extra money and bought one of those for my daughter.	negative

0	NOT even close to Training Day !!	Predictable, slow movie and extremely disappointing since TrainingDay was such the opposite.The "bad guys" were over the top. Particularly thefemale.The end was just stupid. Without being too detailed, there was arunning truck available. Why did the guy not use it ? That's only one of the many holes.Seems like they used lots of filler for little plot.The interaction between the two male leads was the only redeemingfeature of the movie, otherwise it's the same played out cops androbbers movie.Hope you enjoy it more than i did.	negative

0	2 stars...	I couldn't finish this regency.Though use of modern day langage in a regency is usually not a problem for me-it was so prevalent in this book that it severly took away from the story.Also,I found the idea of a gaming hell that not only let in, but actively sought out "ladies of quality" to gamble HIGHLY implausible. That, and the fact that this is a fresh faced 19 year old daughter of a Viscount in her debut season?!? That would have ruined her and any chance she had of a marriage to the hero, an Earl!If you're going to write a historical romance then the characters should behave and react as people would in that time period. The author needs to research regency language and behavior more for her next book.I'd say skip this book unless you can get it used or at the library.2 stars.	negative

0	Falls apart halfway through - Try John Coates	I don't expect Aiken to fool me into thinking that this is Austen's work, but I do expect a competent novel. This was initially promising, but it begins to descend into melodrama. The ending is very perfunctory; the heroine finds her "true love" with almost magically with little development of their relationship. What is there is quite good, it is just not substantial enough for me to believe that the moment Emma catches sight of him, she knows that they are going to be married.After reading this andLady Catherine's Necklace (A Jane Austen entertainment), Aiken's sequel to Pride and Prejudice, it appears to me that the author is rather bored with romances - I strongly recommend that she try writing something else. It is possible to write a historical novel of this period without leeching off of Austen.I strongly recommend John Coates' finishing of this fragment,The Watsons;: Jane Austen's fragment continued and completed by John Coates.	negative

1	INDY IS BACK!	I cannot speak for those who are having problems with this set, but my Widescreen set is terrific. I just have one thing to comment on about those who are saying that the transfers are terrible! These films are old. Please people get over it! If a speck of dirt appears, don't worry about it. Raiders in particular is never gonna look better!! Enjoy these films now and be thankful they are even available to enjoy. It's better than allowing these gems to sit in a room decaying beyond recognition. This set is wonderful, worked fine and there were no problems.	positive
1	Bach improvised	There is a unique genius to this kind of improvisation. From her other recordings, we know that Gabriela Montero is more than capable of giving superb "straight" performances of a wide range of classics from Bach to the present day. Here she improvises on many well known pieces by Bach. This is entirely within Bach's own tradition. For example we know that he improvised at the court of Frederick the Great on a theme provided to him by the king, which later became the theme of his Musical Offering. The range of Montero's spontaneous invention is staggering. Some of the pieces are more successful than others but one has to expect this in an improvised collection. It doesn't matter. The collection is thrilling and leaves one with a warm feeling of pleasure that this talent exists. Highly recommended.	positive
1	Special Use	I've used Santa Spray a number of times and discovered that it can only be applied to certain areas. I used it on my metal bookcase to surround a collectible train set on top and it looked fine at first, but later on it clumped up. However that might be from me spraying it all at once instead of spraying one layer at a time like the can advises. I plan to order more and see what happens.I also applied Santa Snow to an evergreen bush outside and it looks nice and frosty on top.So I recommend this product, but to use wisely.	positive
0	Couldn't set time	The instructions were easy enough but the watch would not respond when I pushed the buttons. It says to hold the 'set' button for 2 seconds and the seconds will begin flashing. Some of the time it did that but the hours would never respond when I hit 'mode'. I worked with it a long time and then finally returned it.	negative

1	OMFG STFU!	I was introduced to White Hot Odyssey at their first show, when they opened for the Cherry Poppin' Daddies (go figure) at the McDonald Theatre in Eugene, OR. Since then I've seen them a total of four times live, and each time I get more and more excited. I've never been more excited for a show than when I see WHOdyssey. But that's beside the point.This album is MIND BLOWING. Albeit, a little dirty, and not really for young ears. (Hopefully you could tell that by the titles of the songs). Steve Perry does it again, his voice is beyond incredible. And the guitar work, everything is astounding. If you're a Cherry Poppin' Daddies fan, or a glam rock fan, or... A ANYTHING fan, you must have this album.Buy it now, your life will never be complete without it.I'm not kidding.	positive
0	Disappointed in product quality and support	After returning the first version of this product because of constant paper jams, the replacement would not recognize the printer drivers from the first or allow me to replace them. In trying to overcome this through HP's support line, the recorded message said I would be directed to a representative and then promptly cut off the call (twice). Returned that version also.	negative
1	Good reading	I picked up "Mists of Avalon" after seeing ads for the TNT movie. I was intrigued by the idea of a retelling of the King Arthur saga from the female perspective. As a child I was fascinated with King Arthur story, but always wished there was more about the women.This book was so much more than I expected. I learned a lot about pagan and Druid religions and a lot about what the "new" religion of Christianity meant for these people.Morgaine (Morgan Le Fay) has always been portrayed as evil, but as the main character of this book, she was very sympathetic.The only complaint that I have of this book is the length. I am normally not intimidated by long books, but this one could have used some editing.I highly recommend it nonetheless.	positive
1	The evolution of all that remains	Ok, If you aren't already a fan All That Remains, now is the time to get with the program. This CD has it all; agression, excellent song writing, top tier production and most of all....actual due dillegence by the band in creating a CD worth purchasing.Unlike a lot of stuff out there nowadays where you can tell a band either didn't take the time to create a quality product (taking into account all the elements I mention above) or just plain tried to hard, All That Remains really came through on this one.For some time, this CD is going to be "all that remains" in my CD player.	positive
1	One of the South's finest	Well written chronicle of one of the South's finest soldiers.Too little has been introduced about the struggle between North and South in the Nations. This book is the best I have read on the subject.Watie and his gallant band are well represented in their struggle to defend their families and save their homes from ruin during the Yankee invasion.	positive
0	Extra Noise	One of the worst purchases I have made. The cords to the earbuds are fabric covered and rub against clothing, creating load rubbing background noise that is high decibel and louder than the music being delivered. I have to binder clip them to my collar to get them to be acceptible. Hate them.	negative

1	Skellig, The Miracle Worker	I think that this was a great book. It brought out the whole idea that angels were really true, yet it also brought the idea that there are things that are similar to angels. David Almond did a great job describing the work that angels do. Especially using a baby in need of help for her heart.This book was also very interesting. Since he used Mina, she seemed to be very observant. The way that she believd in poems and in myths were incredible. I also liked the way that he described Micheal, he was always so caring for his family, most of all his baby sister.	positive
1	Their best effort yet!	I was hoping this album would be at least on a level with their previous work, and was shocked this morning when I finally listened to it---it's amazing. BNL have finally grown famous enough that they can feel confident making an album as diverse and relaxed as this one is. There isn't a bad song on the disc--buy it.	positive

1	The best starting book I have found	My husband got this for me for Christmas and it has changed my life. I like many things about it and have recommended it many times to others. As a newbie to raw foods, this book did overwhelm me a bit at first. I could only take in part of it. I have gone back time and again and take in a bit more every time. This would get 5 stars if it was a bit more divided. For example, what is the best first step? In my mind it is recognizing what we eat that is processed. Separating foods by categories is maybe step 9 or something. This book includes food combining rules in the beginning. Keeping in mind that most people can only retain 3 things at a time, it would be good to break tips into sections more completely. That being said, this is the best there is for newbies right now.	positive
1	SAILOR MOON R!	Yeah, right on crouton! Sailor Moon R is the best movie I haveever seen out of the three. It is about all 5 Senshi and there is aninteresting plot there too. EVIL FLOWERS! Har har! Take that Martha Stewart! Ha ha ha! It is funny! There is a certain part though, when it seems that the VCR just paused. It's just Usagi and her amazing talant for holding her breath for 18 seconds. It's just a wonderful movie, Love, Action, Comedy... What more could anyone ask for. There is a nifty introduction to all the characters and we get to see Mamoru's past. Yay! Just forget about not knowing Japanese, it sounds nifty and theres subtitles. Have a nice day, and watch SAILOR MOON!	positive
0	Save yourself from wasting time!	I am by and large a big fan of Elizabeth George. I've read all of her books and couldn't wait until I read this one as well. I have to say I'm sorry I wasted my time! It was not up to her previous standard. All of her usual characters are barely mentioned while the reader is subjected to the "diary" of the self-absorbed violinist Gideon ad nauseum! The timing between the diary and the other narrative was confusing. But worst of all was the ending. After investing over 700 pages worth of my time, I couldn't believe the way the book ended!!!!!! It was the most unsatisfying conclusion to a book I can ever remember!!!! It you are a George fan and feel that you MUST read this book, do yourself a favor and just read the last two chapters. You'll be just as disappointed but you'll know all the pertinent facts without having wasted as much of your time.	negative

The Tales of Tiptoes Lightly

This is a wonderful book for 5 to 8 year olds. Children delight in Tiptoes' little adventures and friends. Each story is short and charming and the children want more and more. Every book in the Tiptoes series is delightful. The pictures are simple black and white drawings. Children will love to talk about Tiptoes and make their own colorful drawings of her and her friends. Our 5 year old shines with delight with every story.

Aspire NAVIGATOR

I wanted to see this thing in person so I stopped by Aspire's home office in City of Industry, CA. to have a look at this bad boy. A gentleman by the name of Scott gave me a tour of the show room and I have to say that I was very impressed with the Aluminum NAVIGATOR case and all the bells and whistles. Scott dimmed the lights in the display room and the NAVIGATOR looked like it was coming in for a landing at LAX! I had planned to buy the black front but found myself really impressed with how the RED coordinated with the lighting and the black case. Scott informed me not to worry about the color because the price on the aluminum case included (2) additional colored scheme panels so I could change colors whenever I liked! I selected RED with my order and received black and silver as well. The aluminum case also comes with a 500 watt supply and additional cooling. All this was well worth the cost between the steel and aluminum cases. Overall I was extremely impressed.

mr. dylan's revolution

mr. dylan again reinvents himself and again stirs a revolution. all right, so it's not newport and, no, not as many people were paying attention in 1992 when this album hit the stands, but it sent shockwaves through the musical world. bob dylan had gone back acoustic! this collection of folk songs and blues is powerful from start to finish, with mr. dylan reminding the world that he is an incredible musician, not just an icon. his guitar work is impeccable and his singing as eccentric as ever, but moving in its emotionalism. you feel the plight of the ballads' characters (highlights: frankie and albert, blackjack davey, and the chestnut, froggie went a-courtin'). the blues sound like they are right from the delta (check out "sitting on top of the world," in particular). mr. dylan's return to his roots reveal they are deep and healthy. enjoy the record!

Other hippopotami

This short board-book consists of less than 50 words, but they are special words by one of the funniest poets who ever lived.Kids delight in the 14 pages of colorful Mark Corcoran watercolors, that illustrate the "moments dark and grim" of "how we look to him" and the fact that hippos probably "delight the eye/ Of other hippopotami."This literary feast for babies and toddlers is totally terrific!

What can I say but GREAT!

This book picks off right were daughter of the drow left off. The main characters from the first book come back (even Shakti). The plot was wonderful and cunnigham realy did a nice job with this book. and best of all the book gives you the feeling of a satisfactory ending. I'm not saying I hope there aren't more, cause I hope there are. But with Daughter of the Drow I felt the ending was a real cliffhanger, Cunninham realy improves here.

No bang for the buck

I got this table to allow me to use the portable as a stationary at home. I looked at all the reviews over and over. I found it on Grizzly just a few dollars cheaper. This is way overpriced in the 1st place. Then it is without the tools it is to have with it. Most of all there was not one pic of set of instructions as to how this this goes together.I bought it mainly for the name and the fact I found no other table out there. I found you can placed the band saw in a vise and hold and operate it that way and much cheaper. I will return itI also found that you could not use the saw in up right or vertical because the saw has to be mounted up side down so the table is not usable.

Advertisements Misleading

I bought the Church Supper Cookbook after seeing the ad that came in the mail with beautiful looking pictures. I also tried the Barbara's Peachy Chicken & it was delicious! However, once I received the book, I found out that there are absolutely NO pictures in the book at all. With all the pictures in the ad, it led me to believe there would be pictures in the book.I must admit that I am one of those non-professional every-day cooks that wants to see how it looks before I attempt to try it. So I was very disappointed.

Great set! Crappy price practices!

This is a really great set from Fox. The prints are fantastic and the extras are really interesting. The Moto films are forgotten classics and it is great that viewers can now discover or rediscover them!The only negative comment involves Amazon's pricing practices of late. Like many others, I preordered this from Amazon and was punished for doing so by being charged $42...today, the price went down to $36! Pick it up for this price, by all means. I will be cautious of preordering anything from Amazon in the future. I would recommend that you do the same.

Good profile of the legendary singer

The most striking thing about this movie, and something that has been widely mentioned with good reason, are the spectacular performances of the movie's lead characters, Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon. Their acting is tremendous, but as Johnny Cash and June Carter they do their own singing as well, and pull it off remarkably well. I believe Cash's voice to be inimitable, but Phoenix makes a very good attempt.Most of the movie's entertainment value comes from the music--the singing throughout is certainly the highlight. The movie dragged a bit for me at times, but for the most part flowed fairly well, and some of the most interesting events in Cash's life (his introduction to Folsom while in the Air Force, touring with Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, and others, etc) are chronicled well. Johnny's pill-popping addiction seemed a bit drawn out to me, however. Despite this fact, however, this was a very entertaining movie and certainly worthwhile.

Pilot was OK... But it's full speed ahead from there.

The early episodes really hit the ground running. Still shocked ABC didn't see the potential of this series. Mostly tied up with a Bow by the end of Season. Sad they didn't have a chance to work in more about the Nuke conspiracy. Course it was probably best to strick with the Crew... since they have to question if the Captain is right/wrong.

A Great Soundtrack to a Classic Film

Being a lover of Stanley Kubricks' movies, I saw "Lolita" for the first time about a year ago and absolutely loved it!The soundtrack is a great compliment to the film. It took me quite sometime to get "Lolita Ya-Ya" out of my head after seeing the movie. The soundtrack also includes dialogue diectly from the movie which I thought was great. "Shelly Winters Cha-Cha" remains one of my favorite songs ever, and I always picture that scene whenever I hear the song play.The inlay of the CD is great and has extensive notes and pictures from the film and notes regarding the soundtrack. They really did a great job remastering the soundtrack. If you loved "Lolita" as much as I did, I would definitely pick up a copy of this soundtrack.

If you've been given nothing-- its hard to give back

This book feeds pain bodies. The author gave me nothing but a string of negative incidents where her parents were neglectful and or feeding their addictions and being quirky and or mentally ill. It was boring. There is so much more to this story but Walls' holds back, most likely because it will be in another edition which her happy readers will buy into, and once again you will get only half a story. In my humble opinion it is half a book, and appeals to the voyeurs in us. If you are feeling sad in any way dont read this book.

Good Info

This book offered a lot of helpful information about detoxification through fasting. It gave me step by step, what to do to cleanse my body through fasting. However, I had read more than half of the book before I actually got any usable information. For such a small book, I thought it would be packed with info and how-to's on detoxification, but it constantly tells you to buy her other book "How to Feel Great All The Time". If you do lots of research on holistic health as I do, there is a lot of general information about eating healthy and such in this book, which I already know a lot about. If you know nothing about holistic health, this book will be an eye-opener.

Put me to sleep... but now without trying my patience first!

I tried hard, really hard to like this book. After all I paid 8 dollars for it before boarding my plane. I like historical romances but this is among the cornier, least believable and carcicatured characters ever. If I had to read the male character say "oh god", "my god", "dear god" etc or talk about the lust in his loins one more time I would have thrown the book out the plane. And let's not even talk about manner in which the lead characters talk, completely out of place with the early 19th century. I suggest historical romance readers try Judith McNaught or Marion Chesney for their spunky, endearing characters with fun and lively plots.

Coyotes and shapeshifters...whoa! I loved this book it was really good! I read it in one day! It made me feel I wanted to read on! The new characters were cool like Rose and it went into detail about the corpse which I love! The main characters like Buffy, Willow and Xander were so cool in this one and funny at the same time! I recomend this book to all Buffy fans! Shame I can't vote more than five! If you don't like this you suck! This book is the best! I loved the coyotes when they dug the graves up and how Buffy said to the carnie worker she wanted to hurl when she was snooping! The part when they said coyote moon was back as well was the best. So get out your house and buy this now! PS get child of the hunt as well!

Wonderful book for beginners

WIth some trepidation, I tried this with my daughter (nearly 5 yrs) who is very enthusiastic about learning recorder. It was a great success due to its clear, simple layout. It is very satisfying for beginners to feel they rapidly progress to playing 'real' tunes -- including tunes with two player parts and words! Also, basic musical concepts -- clef, rests, measures are systematically introduced. I learned recorder in the 70s and remember my book as being fairly simple, but it did not offer the swift learner satisfaction that this one does, while building a solid foundation. Because of the range of tunes introduced, I think it would also work perfectly well for adults without being boring, and can help anyone who previously hasn't learned notation. Strongly recommended all round.

Great Player, But No DTS

This is a great DVD player. Not going to echo all the great previous reviews, just wanted to say, believe them. A great player that plays almost anything.My one reservation is that this player doesn't play DTS audio.Specifically, it doesn't flag the DTS signal as it should. So many A/V Recievers won't recognize the DTS signal and play it. Some recievers are smart enough to figure out on their own that the audio signal is unflagged DTS and they will decode it properly, but many don't, so you're left with no DTS audio. This is an error that Philips really should correct, hopefully through a firmware update.So, if you're considering this for use in a DTS home theater setup, please keep this in mind. If not, then enjoy it. It's a great little machine.

Good but very short life span

I bought 3 of these and also bought about 14 of the 5300 model. These more expensive cameras with an optical zoom lens seemed to be good at first but they all eventually failed in the same way. The video has gone completely black on all three after about a year. The audio stil works and I suppose I could still use them as a 2-way comunication device, but that expensive color video with zoom is now useless. I tried running one again today just in case... but no luck. Same problem. Looking on the web I see that others have the same problem. This is the most expensive d-link product that I have bought and most disapointing. I was hoping that someone out there may know a way to fix them but I have not seen an answer on the web.

Reviewing "Antigone"

I do believe I have become a true fan of the old Greek classics (and I am inspired to seek out classic Greek plays). "Antigone" is an excellent read, entertaining, and gives a detailed account into the lives and personalities of the daughters of Oedipus, expecially Antigone. Antigone, as portrayed in "Oedipus Rex" is a child who weeps for her parents, her brothers, and her country after the unfolding of tragic events. In "Antigone" she's up close and personal as a young woman brave and daring. She is willing to risk her life to defend what remains of family honor.

good performances

the best terms to describe this performances are clean and spacious. Romeo and Juliet, recorded at Watford Town Hall, recieved 3 stars from penguin guide(3 being the highest score given by them). It is true that the The Tempest it is a little bit in the cool side, but still it's a good performance. It's kind of neat that these works were couple together as "Fantasias after Shakespeare" and for that price. I think it filled nicely that hole that I had in my collection.

wish I'd started using it 5 years ago

I have two litter mates. One can eat anything with no problem. The other always vomits ten minutes after eating, no matter what she eats: canned or dried makes no difference and I've tried every store brand there is. Hairball treatments had no effect. I figured "cats throw up" and didn't worry about it. When I moved and switched vets the new vet asked if the cats ever threw up. When she heard about the one cat she said cats do NOT just throw up and told me to get the Science Diet sensitive stomach food. Yes, it's 4x the price of what I'd been buying, but I noticed a difference with the first bowl. Instead of throwing up ten minutes after literally every meal, now she throws up maybe once a month. If only I'd switched to this brand years ago we both would have been saved a lot of misery. Even tho it costs more I've noticed that the bag seems to last longer than the same amount of cat chow did.

Not the quality of other supplements

My wife and I have been taking Natrol's 600 mg Alpha Lipoic Acid. I saw this "deal" on Amazon and decided to go for it. We have both noticed that the pill seemed to start dissolving about halfway down the esophagus. It distinctly burns on the way down. This was not the case with the higher dose from Natrol. I never once experienced that, but we both do with this one.I would steer clear of this one. I haven't tried everything out there, but was really happy with the Natrol.

Reading John Lennon biographies, I feel this is the kind of music that he enjoyed listening to. This is some of the best "Rock and Roll" that I've heard him or anyone, for that matter, play. This album is f****** great!

Incompatable patched through VCR

Because the DVD Player only has RCA type A/V outputs I knew it would not be able to hook directly to my older TV that only has a single cable input, however I expected I could at least run it through my VCR's A/V connections first as a bridge to the TV. WRONG, The DVD player emits some kind of copyright protection signal that messes up your picture when patched through a VCR and it even says so in the instructions. Is this what copy protection has come to? Its unfortuneate because like me, many people purhacing a unit in this price are just looking for an inexpensive add on to thier same basic and common set up. There is a special adapter that can resolve this, but at a cost almost as much as the DVD player, whats the point?

A brief critique of "Medical Harm"

This is a highly academic exacting discussion of how and why doctors damage some of their patients and the view of the profession of this type of injury. It is very accurate and well researched. It tends toward the end of the spectrum which blames the systems in place in medicine as opposed to the individual responsibility of the doctor. It is an important part of the debate about how to make medicine safer.

Faulty equipment

I bought this for a flea problem i had but i got it and it was not hard to put together but the bulb blew out the next day i put it on and it would turn off during the night not sure if that is what it is supposed to do but I was not happy with it. Hope it worked for everyone else who got it. All i did was get Hot Raid bombs from walmart and flea powder and took my cat to get a flea bath and the fleas are all gone.

Great Sterilizer

We bought this product based on the reviews that said it worked great with Dr. Brown's bottles. It does. After washing the bottles, we can fit 6 bottles and all the accessories for the bottles in this sterilizer and just pop it into the microwave (after adding the 7 ounces water which we measure with one of the bottles). We have not had any problems with the sterilizer, and it definitely beats boiling bottles. We have been very happy with this sterilizer, so much so that when we traveled somewhere for Christmas and didn't take it with us, we had to go to the store and purchase another one just to use while on vacation.

Uhh...Was it just me or did nothing happen in this movie?

My first thought when the end credits started to role was: What the h--- was that? I wish I had read the reviews of this movie before I purchased it so I could have saved my [money] and bought a movie with a story. Granted this has everything every hard core anime fan wants; decapitations, dismembering and gratuitious sex, but there was just no point to the movie. Just as an interesting story starts to form, the movie's over. You never know anything about the main character except that he did something horrible in his past.... Then there's the ridiculously pointless assassin who shows up in the middle of the film.... Nothing explained, nothing concluded. Add the confounding pointlessness of this movie to the fact that it's not even 50 minutes long, and all you get is a big waste of money and bigger dissapointment. Two stars for creative deaths, zero stars for story and point. Bottom line: Don't bother....

The British and their music

This CD offers an excellent sampler of traditional British music. If you have watched Chariots Of Fire you will recognize Jerusalem By Parry(the final scene at Harold Abraham's funeral). This is a beautiful selection. The Tam O'Shanter Overture dispells the often unjustified characterization of the stuffy Englishman and is a rousing piece. All in all a very enjoyable CD. Buy it!

The influence of intelligence on 20th-century war and politics

This is a rare wonderful, non-sensationalized, well-documented account of the influence of intelligence efforts--from traditional spying, through cryptology and high tech--on political and military currents in the 20th century. A notable aspect of the overarching story is the regularity with which credit for intelligence successes has been misappropriated by the ambitious and ruthless.

COC made a lot of bad decisions regarding their vocalists.

Blind, paired with the previous EP (Technocracy), are easily COC's worst records. Both primarily because of embarassingly lousy vocalists. I don't know which is worse, Simon Bob Sinister's flacid & ineffectual whining on Tech, or Karl Agel's "No, really! I'm a rockstar!" godawful crooning on Blind. Now that I'm thinking about it, I'd really have to say that Blind is worse. It's a much longer recording. Still, Blind is almost worthwhile because of the one non-Karl song on it, Vote With A Bullet, which is sung by Pepper... the man who dragged COC out of the gutter and gave them a second chance.This album does have occasional moments of greatness in the instrumentation and songwriting, but for old time fans like me, it just screamed "HI, WE'RE CORROSION OF CONFORMITY, WE'RE TIRED OF BUSTING OUR HUMPS SLOGGING THE UNDERGROUND HARDCORE GRIND, AND WE'RE READY TO SELL OUT NOW, PLEASE!"

And you can't help but dance around the room to these upbeat snippety songs.The titular delight loops one chord progression and one sentence into a trippy trance that sends you right back to the "Ghost in the Invisible Bikini"-Don Kirshner "silly" songs of the sixties!It all ends with the slow croon, "Anchorless," which wouldn't be out of place on any adult-contemporary station. Those Germans have post-modernism down to a "T"!Also check out De-Phazz's "Death By Chocolate," and Funki Porcini's "Love, Pussycats & Carwrecks"!

I ordered this book because my grandson loves horses and is having trouble with reading. I thought this would be a great book for him to practice his reading. I was so disappointed when the book arrived. The packaging was fine but the text was terrible. The stories were disjointed and made no sense. I would not recommend this book to anyone. I could have returned the book for a refund but chose to keep it and use it as an example of the worst writing I have ever read in a published book.

In this book, Emily and Jessup come to see Castle Keep, and pick put furniture to bring home. By accident, the Boggart gets sent to their home too! With some friendship and courage, can Emliy and Jessup get the Boggart back home?I enjoyed this book because it was suspenseful and had a few funny parts. If you are into books about magic and tricky ghosts, you are in for a thrill when you read the Boggart, because that's what it's all about!

Profiler preaches more than he probes

This book fufills the title's promise in that it provides an interesting if disturbing look at obessive and violent criminals, it fails to fulfill the promise, however, of telling us "How to Fight Back." Instead, the authors spend far too much time preaching about how shamefully we treat victims in this society (a premise with which I wholeheartedly agree). The authors' sharp and stilted writing style only serves to make this preaching feel more like an angry attack and less like an informed persuasive argument. I bought this book primarily for the "How to Fight Back" part the title promises and I was seriously disapointed as I read on and on, through all 384 pages of it, and never found more than the common sense instructions to be aware of my surroundings and to hopefully wait for society to take more responsibility for both victim and criminal.

Does "No Mercy" ring a bell??

Didn't we see a bad Gere and Basinger movie in 1986 called No Mercy that was more or less like this one, even down to New Orleans. Besides that what was the author thinking...or maybe she wasn't thinking at all. God bless Remy, the amount of "trauma" in her life didn't make me empathize with her, but amused me because it was so contrived. If you want to enjoy a Brown, read "Where There's Smoke."Fat Tuesday is a whole of grease and no substance.

A strong and haunting movie

This powerful story takes up a few destinies that are affected by the horrors of the war and the oppressions that exist in a few conservative societies. The approach however is not a pessimistic one as there is strength and love that are derived from the difficult lessons and a light that is seen at the end of the tunnel.A strong and haunting movie.

A Must Read for woman desiring a natural childbirth

I owe large part of my successful birthing experience to this book. I followed the advice helping me trust and reconnect with my body. I went into labor 9am and gave birth at 1pm.I gave birth at a birthing center which provided an environment that allowed me to be calm and apply the techniques that the book suggested. I am not sure this would have been the same in a hospital setting. But I will never know. My point is that it is important to be comfortable in you birthing environment in order to really connect with your body and apply the techniques. All I can say is I had a great experience and gave birth the way I wanted to, by applying the books advice. I highly recommend it to all my friends wanting a positive birthing experience.

Obstacles to learning science

This book is organized well, but communicates its subjects poorly. It communicates so poorly, in fact, that it seems almost intended to throw obstacles in the way of learning.It is poorly written and includes (often) unhelpful illustrations. The text seems designed to obscure information rather than imparting information. It forces the reader to work too hard when searching for key information. Where tables would be helpful in comparing and contrasting key attributes of related phenomena, it includes few. Paragraphs often hide key points at the bottom, rather than using topic sentences and paragraph structures that help the reader.One would think the text was written in a foreign language and then translated into English. It seems like the "educators" who wrote this may be "experts" on education but novices at communication. The editorial staff must be asleep at the wheel, or more focused on style than substance.Truly awful.

worthless

I bought this player for my 15 year old daughter. There are no instructions on how to get the music from your computer in to the player. The only instructions that are included are in regards to the buttons on the player itself, and these instructions are extremely poorly written. I have asked to be able to return the player, but they will not accept it back. They say it has been too long since we bought it. But we were trying many times and many different ways to get the player to work, so that is why the time passed. Anyway, I am now stuck with this player that is absolutely worthless to me. Beware before purchasing this item!!! I would definitely not recommend it. My son has an Apple Ipod and it is extremely easy to use. Wish I had spent the extra money and bought one of those for my daughter.

Predictable, slow movie and extremely disappointing since TrainingDay was such the opposite.The "bad guys" were over the top. Particularly thefemale.The end was just stupid. Without being too detailed, there was arunning truck available. Why did the guy not use it ? That's only one of the many holes.Seems like they used lots of filler for little plot.The interaction between the two male leads was the only redeemingfeature of the movie, otherwise it's the same played out cops androbbers movie.Hope you enjoy it more than i did.

2 stars...

I couldn't finish this regency.Though use of modern day langage in a regency is usually not a problem for me-it was so prevalent in this book that it severly took away from the story.Also,I found the idea of a gaming hell that not only let in, but actively sought out "ladies of quality" to gamble HIGHLY implausible. That, and the fact that this is a fresh faced 19 year old daughter of a Viscount in her debut season?!? That would have ruined her and any chance she had of a marriage to the hero, an Earl!If you're going to write a historical romance then the characters should behave and react as people would in that time period. The author needs to research regency language and behavior more for her next book.I'd say skip this book unless you can get it used or at the library.2 stars.

Falls apart halfway through - Try John Coates

I don't expect Aiken to fool me into thinking that this is Austen's work, but I do expect a competent novel. This was initially promising, but it begins to descend into melodrama. The ending is very perfunctory; the heroine finds her "true love" with almost magically with little development of their relationship. What is there is quite good, it is just not substantial enough for me to believe that the moment Emma catches sight of him, she knows that they are going to be married.After reading this andLady Catherine's Necklace (A Jane Austen entertainment), Aiken's sequel to Pride and Prejudice, it appears to me that the author is rather bored with romances - I strongly recommend that she try writing something else. It is possible to write a historical novel of this period without leeching off of Austen.I strongly recommend John Coates' finishing of this fragment,The Watsons;: Jane Austen's fragment continued and completed by John Coates.

Bach improvised

There is a unique genius to this kind of improvisation. From her other recordings, we know that Gabriela Montero is more than capable of giving superb "straight" performances of a wide range of classics from Bach to the present day. Here she improvises on many well known pieces by Bach. This is entirely within Bach's own tradition. For example we know that he improvised at the court of Frederick the Great on a theme provided to him by the king, which later became the theme of his Musical Offering. The range of Montero's spontaneous invention is staggering. Some of the pieces are more successful than others but one has to expect this in an improvised collection. It doesn't matter. The collection is thrilling and leaves one with a warm feeling of pleasure that this talent exists. Highly recommended.

Special Use

I've used Santa Spray a number of times and discovered that it can only be applied to certain areas. I used it on my metal bookcase to surround a collectible train set on top and it looked fine at first, but later on it clumped up. However that might be from me spraying it all at once instead of spraying one layer at a time like the can advises. I plan to order more and see what happens.I also applied Santa Snow to an evergreen bush outside and it looks nice and frosty on top.So I recommend this product, but to use wisely.

OMFG STFU!

I was introduced to White Hot Odyssey at their first show, when they opened for the Cherry Poppin' Daddies (go figure) at the McDonald Theatre in Eugene, OR. Since then I've seen them a total of four times live, and each time I get more and more excited. I've never been more excited for a show than when I see WHOdyssey. But that's beside the point.This album is MIND BLOWING. Albeit, a little dirty, and not really for young ears. (Hopefully you could tell that by the titles of the songs). Steve Perry does it again, his voice is beyond incredible. And the guitar work, everything is astounding. If you're a Cherry Poppin' Daddies fan, or a glam rock fan, or... A ANYTHING fan, you must have this album.Buy it now, your life will never be complete without it.I'm not kidding.

Good reading

I picked up "Mists of Avalon" after seeing ads for the TNT movie. I was intrigued by the idea of a retelling of the King Arthur saga from the female perspective. As a child I was fascinated with King Arthur story, but always wished there was more about the women.This book was so much more than I expected. I learned a lot about pagan and Druid religions and a lot about what the "new" religion of Christianity meant for these people.Morgaine (Morgan Le Fay) has always been portrayed as evil, but as the main character of this book, she was very sympathetic.The only complaint that I have of this book is the length. I am normally not intimidated by long books, but this one could have used some editing.I highly recommend it nonetheless.

Ok, If you aren't already a fan All That Remains, now is the time to get with the program.

I think that this was a great book. It brought out the whole idea that angels were really true, yet it also brought the idea that there are things that are similar to angels. David Almond did a great job describing the work that angels do. Especially using a baby in need of help for her heart.This book was also very interesting. Since he used Mina, she seemed to be very observant. The way that she believd in poems and in myths were incredible. I also liked the way that he described Micheal, he was always so caring for his family, most of all his baby sister.

The best starting book I have found

My husband got this for me for Christmas and it has changed my life. I like many things about it and have recommended it many times to others. As a newbie to raw foods, this book did overwhelm me a bit at first. I could only take in part of it. I have gone back time and again and take in a bit more every time. This would get 5 stars if it was a bit more divided. For example, what is the best first step? In my mind it is recognizing what we eat that is processed. Separating foods by categories is maybe step 9 or something. This book includes food combining rules in the beginning. Keeping in mind that most people can only retain 3 things at a time, it would be good to break tips into sections more completely. That being said, this is the best there is for newbies right now.

Save yourself from wasting time!

I am by and large a big fan of Elizabeth George. I've read all of her books and couldn't wait until I read this one as well. I have to say I'm sorry I wasted my time! It was not up to her previous standard. All of her usual characters are barely mentioned while the reader is subjected to the "diary" of the self-absorbed violinist Gideon ad nauseum! The timing between the diary and the other narrative was confusing. But worst of all was the ending. After investing over 700 pages worth of my time, I couldn't believe the way the book ended!!!!!! It was the most unsatisfying conclusion to a book I can ever remember!!!! It you are a George fan and feel that you MUST read this book, do yourself a favor and just read the last two chapters. You'll be just as disappointed but you'll know all the pertinent facts without having wasted as much of your time.
