Big on marketing, short on details
I have over 30 year of woodworking experience building tables, chests etc. I bought this book as it sounded like everything I ever needed to know about box making. The book was a big disappointment. It has lots of colorful pictures on nice glossy thick paper, but lacks the detailed instructions of how to build a box. Normally the Taunton Press (Fine WoodWorking Magazine) has excellent articles, but this book falls short of giving you the 'know how' to build a box.

Pretty lousy effort
The Eagles' last A very lackluster effort. Even the hits aren't all that great. "Heartache Tonight" lacks sufficient punch. "I Can't Tell You Why" is just plain boring, too slow, and way too long. "The Long Run" was a hit but is of B-side quality.Too bad this was the Eagles' last studio effort. They certainly missed their opportunity to go out with a bang.

Very good tale
There is no fabrication or romaticizing in this book. An honest, straight forward story who I think would have been a good bloke to go hunting with.

It's a great change that shows how the guys have matured.
Well first I'd like to say that this CD really has a lot of differences from the older ones. This one has a lot more orchestral music in the back round and the guys even wrote some of their own music. Of course, "The Perfect Fan" is completely sweet from Brian and the rest of the guys to their mothers. And "Back to Your Heart" has got to be my favorite song! I think it's great that Kevin got a chance to write a song, and it turned out really great. I also like how they pretty much evenly distributed the solos, so Kevin and Howie got their fair share, because, of course, AJ, Brian, and Nick, always got the solos before. I didn't mind, because they all have great voices, but it upset me that they did not give the others (Kevin and Howie) and chance to show their full musical talent. Now I think we have a full understanding about why all these men got picked for this group.

non-pan and non-scan
I found this DVD very difficult to watch - and not because of its violent content. The manufacturers have chosen not to present it in widescreen - fair enough - but their idea of pan-and-scan seems to be to point whatever it is they point at the middle of the frame and keep it there without moving, so a lot of dialogue comes from characters who are off the edges, and it's basically a matter of luck as to whether or not important action ends up in frame.

Worth purchasing
I purchased this piece last year. I am glad I did. The item wasn't easy to install, but that shouldn't let you not buy it. I hadn't considered it as a factor in my decision. I love using all the various options it has. I feel great after my cardio workout on this elliptical machine. It gives you a sense of feeling that you are climbing a mountain..starting out easy and then gets challenging. Fun!! I am happy with this purchase.

True, it doesn't hold 4 cups
I really like this coffee maker. I haven't had trouble with the clock, it keeps the time just fine. I used the timer option and my coffee was ready when I wanted it. The coffee maker turns off after 1 hour, which is nice for me because I always worried that I didn't turn off my old coffee maker. One less thing for me to think about on my way to work. I saw the reviews that stated the coffee maker doesn't hold 4 cups. This is a fact, I tested it myself and is the reason that I gave it 4 stars. It actually holds just over 3 measured cups of water. So if you have your heart set on exactly 4 cups of coffee, don't buy this coffee maker. I don't drink a ton of coffee every day so this doesn't upset me all that much. I just enjoy a large cup in the morning on my way to work and a few cups on the weekend. I find that this coffee maker does what I need it to do, even if it doesn't make exactly 4 cups of coffee.

Excellent primer on Judaism
Phenomenal overview of Judaism for anyone who is wanting to learn a little about this religious tradition. There's a little of everything in this book without it getting too in the weeds. It's a great primer and then more detailed study can come thereafter, if desired.

Foundational Theology is Taught Here!
It's a shame so many churches have abandoned these old songs. Its a sign of the times, I'm afraid, that people don't really want to worship God, just themselves. The modern songs sung in so many services talk about "Me" and don't focus on the attributes of God. That's probably why this book is so hard to locate. I own the piano version with the spiral spine and hard cover. It is my favorite hymnal by far. The hymns reach to the soul and touch us with who God is, His power, His Love and His plan of redemption. Singing these songs is true worship and helps me to focus on who God is and why I should praise Him. I highly reccommend it!

Faithful, yet faithless
It truly is great to see a movie made version of a book, and this one is pretty close. I must say though, this movie was not scary. Danny looks like a chipmonk, and Jack is not fit for the role(he looks like an ugly girl on the cover). The film is too long, and cannot be compared to the classic version with Jack Nicholson. This movie was pretty low-budget if you ask me, and dont listen to any of the good reviews. Rent the older one, and you'll be more pleased with youre choice. Why do you think it was a "made for t.v movie?" It was too crappy to be let out in theaters, so they released it on t.v, and hardly anybody knew about it. Those who did know, barley cared.

Great but please take note!
Great sounding speakers, they look good too and they were delivered nice and fast.I really am happy - to the point where I purchased some more for inside the boat :)The only thing I would like to point out is that after having them fitted in my cockpit for a while I noticed that the screws had started to rust - slightly disappointed that they werent stainless considering the main use of these as marine speakers.Still, a quick trip to the hardware store and less than 2 dollars later I had 8 stainless steel screwsSo, buy them for sure but change the screws out with stainless :)

Great movie, bad DVD
In an era when we are getting great DVDs for many films with different versions available (think Abyss and the Alien 9 disk series) it is a shameful that perhaps the greatest Sci-Fi movie ever made is not available in its original version, only in the director's cut. Whether or not you like this version better, the lack of availability of the original is a crime to any film lover.

No need to hit fast forward on your CD player with this album
This is easily one of my favorite albums and one that I could listen to from top to bottom without having to skip any weak spots.The driving rhythms of this album will make the miles fade away if you pop this in your your CD player during a long trip. Bluesy (Baby Did A Bad Bad Thing), haunting (The End Of Everything), hopeful (I Believe), powerful (Shadows In A Mirror).Think Dylan/Springsteen without the occasional rambling, but all of the emotion and then some.

Gag! Migraineurs, asthmatics, and sinus headache sufferers beware....
I enjoy hot baths for relaxing after a stressful day and for headache relief. Breathing in hot steam is theraputic and I often enjoy a lightly-scented bubble bath. The scent in this product, however, CAUSED a headache and is overpoweringly obnoxious. My husband has scrubbed the tub to no avail trying to remove any residual ODOR and we have the bathroom vent along with two air purifiers running simultaneously in the bathroom...24 hours after using the sex bomb...trying to rid our home of the fumes. After breathing the thick, contaminated air permeated by this product, we feel like we've coated our lungs with something really, really noxious. Sex bomb? No way! This would make a better BUG BOMB!

I was wanting a good small flash light I can use when working on my car, having previous bought a Maglite 3-D flash light, I wanted to buy another Maglite. But this mini flash light is not bright at all, and the beam is very small. The cheap Chinese flash lights I buy are brighter then this one. Overall I am very unsatisfied with this product.

Poor Storyline: Skip It, Save Time
The cast is good, but the story is very weak, a teenager could have written it. Often cheesy as well. Moreover, it's hard to believe DSS will retain such an employee who is going through serious personal issues. One can't blame the technicians if the design itself is crappy. This is a crappy movie, despite the top tier cast, simply because the story was not properly set.

Cheap copy of the original
I have owned a LockJaw brand clamp for several years and really like it. Apparently LockJaw sold out to CH Hanson who makes a poor copy of the original. I sent mine back. Virtually not useable. You will spend more time trying to get the clamp closed than you will actually working. Save your money.

Great monitor set!
We do not have a nursery or a baby, but we purchased this to monitor the screened-in pool area where our 4 cats hang out. There have been incidents such as cats taking a swim (um, unintentionally!) and cats fussing with other cats "visiting" on the other side of the screen, so this monitor system is perfect for us to know when we need to run to the rescue if anything happens out there. The reception is terrific, quiet, no interference, and picks up extremely well. We can even hear the birds singing in the distance out there. I would highly recommend this item for nursery, and certainly for unique purposes such as ours. Great price, too!

Classic comedy!!!
Steven Wright is a hilarious comedian with a bland, straight delivery that might not be for everybody. But if you are a Steven Wright fan, this is the only comedy cd that he has released. This CD is old, probably 20 years old, so some of the stuff may be a bit dates, but it is still hilarious. Wright has gone on to do some acting and has appeared on talk shows. There are also many jokes attributed to Wright on the internet. Many of those sound like they could be, but really aren't. For true steven wright comedy, check out this CD. While there may be some sexual innuendo in a few jokes, the humor is really clean and not any bad language that I can remember.

This was the turning point...
In my opinion, this is the second worst album that ICP as ever put out, second only to the Wraith:Shangri-La. The only good songs on the entire album are "Cherry Pie," which is a remake of "I Need A Freak," and "Crystal Ball" which features Twiztid. The hidden skits and songs are pretty funny, but the rest of the stuff if a pathetic attempt to sell out to the mainstream. If you're a die hard ICP fan, you will probably like this, but if you love music and have a brain of your own, then you will see this for what it is.

Best water source for cats
My cats love this watering system and the large reservoir means I only need to refill it every two weeks or so. If only it were stainless steel instead of plastic! The plastic that isn't constantly under water gets rough and attracts dust that just doesn't come off. For the price, replacing it is not a big deal, and I get years of use before that is imperative.

Native Music Done A New Way
I bought this album after getting a free sampler from the record company after buying another title. May You Walk In Sunshine was on the free C.D., and I thought I would give it a try. I was very impressed with the album. Excellent music with Native American chants. I was a bit leary about getting such an album, but after listening to it, I am very glad I bought it. I listen to it after hard days at work, and the next thing I know I am ready to go. In order to keep this review short, I will just say this: GET THIS ALBUM NOW !! You will not be sorry. Enjoy !!

Awesome
This is one of my most favorite rock and roll albums. The power, intensity and emotion can be felt from the opening note to the grand finale. If you want a rock and roll treat with excellent vocals, keyboard, electric AND acoustic guitar work this is the record for you. Badfinger really put it together on this one. This album is a true testament to the fact that it does not need to make the radio to be absolutely incredible and awesome.

The CD looks very good but I'm dissapointed that 'I got the fever', 'Take Me Away', 'Round our way' are not on. I'll probably have to make my own CD with the album on but with some of the songs like 'Headshrinker' replaced. Looks good though.

Don't buy unless you own a supercomputer
Enticed by the dazzling new graphics and advertisments, I upgraded to this Flight Simulator X from Flight Simulator 2004. What a mistake. Although the scenary and cockpits look better, the program is jerky and slow. The program takes 10 minutes to boot up and at least 6 minutes to load a flight.In order to have smooth flight, you have to have the graphic settings on low. And the scenary looks crappy that way. So I'm playing a newer game that looks and feels like an older version. And, yes, I did update my graphix card driver. And this is with a computer that's only a year old!So, you know all that beautiful new detailed content - all those highly detailed cities and beautiful new lush scenery? Well, you won't be able to see it. Unless you own a supercomputer.Microsoft should indicate that a new gaming computer is required with this purchase!!

For wussy garlic only!!
I actually bought one of these from my local Lechter's store, but as I had such a bad experience with it, I wanted to write a review to protect other hapless consumers.In short: this press is feeble. It can't handle more than a clove, and since it's made cheaply (with a plastic core) it can't generate the force needed to crush even that adequately. The handles bend if you push too hard, and it doesn't fully crush even the one clove it can handle. Mine - after much frustration on my part - finally broke off at the hinge a couple days ago, so now I'm back on the market for a new one.Ironically, the cheap, all-aluminum press my parents have had as long as I can remember is still fully functional.Do yourself a favor: don't buy this unless you plan only to press garlic that's already half mush.

Disappointed
I have to admit that I was very disappointed with the novel after reading the glowing reviews. This book was probably one of two books I have never finished. I just could not bring myself to complete it. I honestly found no character that pulled me in emotionally. Everyone seemed to be caricatures of one fault or another, including the father and daughter. In all honesty, my opinion of almost every book or movie rests with the abilty to care about at least one character. In this book, I found no one. I was turned off by every person in the story. And as for the chills, I did not see what the other reviewers saw.I have never been one to put someone off of something. But this time I just had to write something down. Judging by all of the other reviews, I am in the extreme minority. I may give another of Tamara Thorne's novels a try. It may have just been this particular book.

spotty coverage of commonly used words
Without an ability to review the book personally, I bought it with the hopes that it would be an adequate dictionary for the intermediate ESL student in terms of building rather simple English vocabulary. It was far from my expectation.This is not the book if you are looking for a comprhensive dictionary, nor for quite commonly used words. A big disappointment. Virtually useless. And the size of the font, layout is terrible as well. Even if it contained the basic translations a person would need, you'd have a hard time reading the text. I'd say it is not even adequate for travelers to Cambodia.

Glorified Historical Fiction
The Battle of New Market, VA was an unusual event in the Civil War, because it was the only time in American history that active military school cadets participated in battle. So, I wanted to get more information on this battle, and when I got this book, I was excited to read it. Unfortunately, that excitement did not last long. The author chose to write this account of the battle in the style of a novel, even down to putting words in the characters' mouths in the form of running dialogue. I do not question Mr. Gindlesperger's sources, and the appendix was intersting to me. The book just read more like "The Killer Angels" than a factual account of a battle.

Bad hardware!!
Piece of junk. Support says something wrong take out hard drive, unplug everything, take out power cord and the wait and restart the thing. Whereafter you will buy yourself 15 minutes of access to you data before the drive locks you out again. Linksys is well aware of this and there has been no fix offered only suggestion is send it back exchange for another one. Whig of course will do the exact same thing, by the technicians own admission.Having access for 15 minutes at a time we. All tell that a working NAS file server with Media Server would be great to have and we will be getting another brand and one that is not purchased based hardly on low price.With this product it is NO BARGIN!

MELODIC EMO AT IT'S BEST
Wow, what an amazing album. The Ataris are a perfect mix between NOFX, Jimmy Eat World, MxPx, and the Get Up Kids. Every song on the album is solid, and their sense of melody is amazing. I'll admit that almost all of the songs are similar, but I love them all. This is probably one of my favorite emo CDs, right up there with "Clarity" by Jimmy Eat World, "Something to Write Home About" and "Four Minute Mile" by the Get Up Kids, and "Do You Know Who You Are?" by Texas is the Reason.The Ataris are a very, very tight band, and I can't wait for "End Is Forever" to come out.

Fan of the show since it came out
OK I've been collecting all the DVD's since they started to release them.My question is what happened with the specail edition ones? You know the ones with the plastic heads of each family member, so far the only ine that is missing is Bart. Why did they stop or is the one that Amazon showing for season ten the box one and will show the special edition one when it comes out? Seems unfair to start having special edition of each family members head only to stop with one last character.In any case, I can not wait for season ten to come out, regardless of some negative comments about the later seasons, I still enjoy watching them and will collect all the seasons as the come out until the show stops.

Numerous Basic Errors
The error start in the second and third formulae in Chapter 1 (page 4). Both confuse the number (mol) and concentration (molarity), which any person who has had general chemistry should discover. In addition, it incorrectly states that it is 1 in 5 million molecules of water dissociate; it is correctly 1 in 555 million, which any person capable of basic math should discover. Numerous basic errors repeat to the end of the text. The number of basic errors in the text should cause doubt of its validity. Use Berg or Lehninger or Devlin.

A GOOD ASSISTANT FOR DEVELOPERS
The purpose of "Java Enterprise Best Practices" is to assist Java developers in getting around the complexities, which are part of a typical enterprise system.The neatly summarized chapters of this book harbour concise and comprehensive outlines, which should guide developers in designing and coordinating projects, using the Java Enterprise APIs.Despite its small size, this book did a good job on JavaMail, JavaServer Pages, Enterprise JavaBeans, Performance tuning, JDBC, and RMI/CORBA. However, some users may not be satisfied with the rather short information it provided on both XML and Custom Tag Libraries.

Absolutely amazing, breathtaking, and inspiring.
I will make this short and sweet. I have seen the group in a wonderful small club in Murfreesburo, TN. The atmosphere of the club at first glance, is that of a pool hall slash bar. When filled by the voice of Fleming, and the instrumental sounds of the band, it change into a club less interested in a game of pool and rounds of beer, to an environment where everyone was entranced by the overwhelming sounds they were hearing. Their music is full of emotions for whatever mood you are in. After hearing them live, I went out and baught the cd. One of my best purchases. I hope to see them again.

The Restless Gun
We purchased The Restless Gun on 6/7/12, three DVD set with 24 episodes. We have until now completed the first disc and part way through the second, we have enjoyed each episode so far with very good storyline, acting with John Payne playing his role so well, and no doubt the quality of the picture and sound, no surprise there as this is what we receive each time with Amazon and Timeless Media Group. For those that like Westerns this is a good quality product.

Don't hate it but I don't like it.
This stuff doesn't do anything for me. I have probably used about 40/60 of the wipes, and I've been waiting for results that are just not going to come. First of all, I have very annoying, acne prone skin. It's oily on the t-zone, but is very dry on the cheeks. So I guess it would be called "combination skin." I don't have very bad acne, but I do have bumpy, un-smooth skin, with a couple of pimples at a time. When I started using this I loved the convenience of it, so of course I was praying it would work for me. Daily, I'd get out of the shower, quickly take a pad, rub all over my face, apply lotion, then be done and moving on to other things. But that's about the only thing I can say I really like about this. It just doesn't work for me at all.

A worthy attempt
A very difficult undertaking, this film came off very well. Many complain that it takes too long for it to get off the ground, but I rather like the slowness to it. There's an expectation that for a film like this, you're going to have to cover the bases and develop characters, background, history, etc. The effects for the time are very solid and Reeve does a bang-up job as Superman. In compilations of bext movie scenes ever, the helicopter rescue sequence is right up there with pure adrenaline. Despite the ridiculous sequence involving Superman literally making the world go back in time by spinning the planet in reverse direction, the film is enjoyable. Great perfomances by all.

Maybe Dave Coutts wants his old job back!!
Tool is the best band nowadays, for the one, sorely sensitive reason that stp are failures: as stp's career has furthered itself, their albums have died. Tool, on the other hand, only continue to get better with each release. STP NEEDS to stand to take a lesson from Tool's page, and stop putting out fearsomely abnormal pop garbage. To every mistaught, five-star reviewer: you should employ excessively MORE virtuous standards, like the Tool analogy, in your spitefully self-righteous, hidden agenda reviews, where you fake that stp's shangri-la is buyable.

Not even bite sized cookies, so they came out not even shaped like a bone and looked like a mis-shapened squiggle! Not cool

It was scratched
The CD I purchased was badly scratched, the playback was terrible, and it was shipped at the end of the waiting period. There was also no distinction from the shipper whether or not the album was the old CD or the newly remastered album.

Manhunt: The 12-Day Chase To Catch Lincoln's Killer
Overall, I liked this book. Mr. Swanson humanized John Wilkes Boothe quite well. At the same time, it is my one criticism as well. Boothe was a daring and cold-blooded killer, not a sympathetic character, and it seemed as though the author went to some length to create a Boothe that became almost a co-victim with Lincoln. However, the details -- and blunders -- involving the manhunt, the Confederate sympathizers who aided Boothe in his escape attempt made for a fascinating and enjoable read.

don't bother unless you love goa trance
this is basically a goa trance mix with some filmic interludes. there are much better options from oakenfold out there, like the global underground set.

The River
This book is an adventure book so if you dont like them you wont like The River. "We want you to do it again", says Derek Holtzer a goverment physiologist who studies how to live in the wilderness. He and Brain are going to the wilderness togther. One nightwhile they are sleeping Derk is struk by lighting and put in a coma. Brain had a close incounter with a moose it might just happen again. Some diffrences from this story from the last are that Brain has a knife not a hatchet,his plane didn't crashand, has a partner.I dont like this story because all Brain ever thinks is I think I should do this I think I should do that. I wouldnt recomend this book to young kids because they can get confused with whos who and whats what.Here are some other boooks you might want to read by Gary Paulsen, Hatchet And Brains Winter.

Tom Tran is the missing piece to an epic war story!
Tom Tran's roll as the village boy sets the standard for movies such as Platoon and Full Metal Jacket. I can only ask: Where were the Academy Award nominations? Good luck Tom, and see you at the movies!

Be prepared!
Amy goes through each combo several times so you really get a chance to get the hang of it. I just fudge it until I get the moves down which is a source of much entertainment for my husband who loves to watch me fumble around! It isn't so hard it's impossible, but you definitely have to be an experienced stepper and in excellent shape to do this workout.

It is very poorly made and cheap feeling
We tried to use this steam vac the day we received it following all the instructions to the letter. It started leaking from several spots on the several of the seams where the plastics met. We called Hoover and they said it was common and we would need to take it into a service center. When we did that the service center told us it would be at least a week before they could work on it. I am so thankful that Amazon has such a great return policy and they are so easy to use. I am going to send it back and get a refund and buy a bissell steam vac.PS I did what some of the people who said that if it leaks that you need to press the trigger and the surge button. I tried it for about ten min and was not able to get anything to snap like what other reviewers said to do.

Miracle Harness!!
Wow. I am amazed at how much difference this harness makes. My 40 lb German Shorthaired Pointer was practically dragging me down the road with a collar and leash. She gets distracted by EVERYTHING. Not only that, but to get her attention, I had to pull pretty hard on the leash (which didn't seem good for her neck). We took our first walk with the EasyWalk Harness lastnight. She still tries to lead me, but I am in total control. She's not able to pull me around like before. As soon I pull back on the leash she slows down and comes back to me. Not only does she stop bolting; depending on which side pulling towards, the harness will automatically correct her to walk straight. For fifteen bucks, this is the best investment if your dog's walking YOU. Plus it was at my doorstep less than 2 days after I ordered with Amazon Prime w/free shipping.

Rehash of a second rate sci-fi horror movie
Walter Mosley's "Easy Rawlins" series is well plotted, the characters are well thought out, and the stories are very original. I am a fan of his new "Fearless Jones" series, which does a lot to explain racism in 1950s Los Angeles.Nothing I've read about Walter Mosley explains why he would want to write this piece of trite. This book is the worst rehash of bad 1950s sci-fi movies that I've read in years. I've been reading sci-fi for forty years and this is about as bad as it gets. The story is totally trash, you know the ending before you get past the beginning, the characters are ridiculous, and the sex scenes are even worse (hard to ruin sex, but he does it).If this was by anyone else it never would have gotten published. It would be a favor to him and all his fans to buy back every copy that exists and bury them.

Very Disappointing
I loved to listen to Milo when he did the White Sox games on WCFL in the early 60s. I enjoyed Milo when he was interviewed by Roy Firestone on the old Mazda Sports Look on ESPN back in the late 80s/early 90s.I agree with a previous reviewer that it seems like a book written by a grumpy old man. I might add that it's a pretty self-indulging book. I read the reviews before I got the book from the library, and only made a special request because I loved Milo hoping that I would enjoy the book. Although writing the book for Milo might have been therapy for him, Milo should have then thrown it out. Milo's thoughts would have been better left unsaid. I might add that I'm not a fan of Harry Carey & other announcers that he trashed in the book. Actually there aren't many people that Milo didn't trash.

Great, But Naming Conventions Missing
Don't volunteer to design a database until you've read this book! It provides a firm foundation on the theory behind database design, for mere mortals such as myself. ONE WARNING: This book did not cover naming conventions in any detail. The author does provide some "content defining" guidelines, such as make the name relevant to the organization, etc., but information about consistent use of prefixes to identify tables/forms/macros, etc., aren't covered. Even an appendix would help! I'm using the L/R Naming Standard, I'm sure there's others.

Nice screen - measures just shy of 68"
I needed a screen shorter than 70". This lists the height as 69", but it's actually just shy of 68" (just measured it). That's fine with me.It's solidly built, attractive - a nice buy. Realize, the fact that it has shutters means that you can still see through it a bit. Something I have to live with because I needed something a particular height - it's hard to find screens that are less than 70" tall.

Here in my car, I feel safest of all
High school nerd sees the car of his dreams and has to have it, ignoring the history of deaths that come along with the purchase. But this is no ordinary car, it's alive. Follows up with the predictable development: parents don't like car, bullies trash car, car gets even. Some of the cast choices are good but whatever talent this movie has, it needs a better screenplay. Preston is wife of John Travolta and you can see the bum Blossom in HOME ALONE.

The Quiet Man
Immortal director Ford directed this Oscar-winning valentine to his ancestral home, a love story that soars thanks to Ford's resplendent shooting and a solid, flavorful performance from the Duke. O'Hara radiates an untamed red-haired beauty playing Wayne's love interest, while McLaglen is a joy as the blustery Red Will.

Very good product. the only thing that be aware that it only fit certain bikes. It did not fit my kid's bike properly but I still put it on and it is solid. My kid is big and it takes his weight with no problem. The previous ones that came with the bike broke.

Short and Sweet
I really enjoyed reading these short stories. This was my first Russo work and it reminded me of John Stienbeck - the writing was colorful, sharp, and emotionally raw. It was a bit tiring to have all the stories revolve around broken relationships, but it was interesting to see all the different twists he worked into each story. I recommend.

Ancient curses
Have read good reviews about the Pendergast series, so decided to dive in with the first book, and found it a thrilling ride indeed. Reminded me a bit of Crichton's early work. Every time I see an exhibit in a museum, anywhere in the world, I am reminded of how much of the stuff was stolen and/or plundered. How can displaying mummies be anything other than grave-robbery? And yet, I appreciate the privilege that museums afford me. This story is about the "curse" of moving things to places they do not belong.

Definitive Indeed
This Delfonics CD is the one to get if you have to choose. Wish some of their early recordings were included like (Baby I love you) And (He don't really love you) But this CD is a well put together collection of hits and fantastic love songs. How these guys sang with such tight harmony is mind blowing.

Doesn't make you sweat - too easy
This workout, to me, seems geared toward kids even younger than teens. The workout was way too easy that I think middle school kids would benefit more.Everything seemed in slow motion, and you do not sweat. There's no cardio element. You kind of stop and start, and the instructor's movements are so slow that I needed to go even faster and not follow what she was doing.I'm in my mid 20s, but I don't think teenagers would like this.

Go elsewhere for Econ theory
This book is outstanding at taking a difficult subject and making it even more inaccessible. Textbooks like this are why kids don't want to study Econ today. Dry writing, poor examples, and errors make this book a chore to learn from. If it were possible to give it zero stars, I would.A better resource for your rusty Calc will be Haeussler, Paul, and Wood's Introductory Mathematical Analysis - which includes a section on the Lagrangian method. This is a really great (and fun, yes, fun) calc book.A better microeconomic theory book is the Wetzstein Microeconomic Theory text.Finally, for lighter introduction check out any of the recent econ books such as "The Undercover Economist", "Undressing the naked science", etc.There are much better ways to make micro interesting to learn than from this book...

A Children's Movie With Racist Comments
This movie, while entertaining, has a racist theme. The phrase "cracker lackin" is uttered again and again. Can you imagine the contoversy, if this were an equivilent racial slur against black, or any non-white race of people? I suppose that "cracker lackin" means "a place without white people," because of the context that it is used in. Because of its repeated use, I have deducted two stars. I deducted one more because the movie was not as entertaining as the original.
