0	Lousy	Sound quality is about like hearing someone trying to talk to you with a pillow shoved over their face. Terrible. I got it as a "bargain" along with a rebate. Tomorrow it goes into the Dumpster.	negative
0	Not for GWTW fans!!	I have read both the original GWTW as well as Alexandria Ripley's, Scarlett, watched both movies and listened to the book on tape of "Scarlett" and while I think it is an ok follow-up not for the die hard GWTW fans!! We know what her personality was supposed to be, what Margaret Mitchell intended her to be. I think she was playing to be helpless but she really wasn't helpless. You also cannot simply follow Vivian Leigh or Clark Gable. Joanne Whaley-Kilmer and Timothy Dalton acting was ok, but just ok. It was ok for a made for tv movie wrote like a soap opera, but not for a follow up to GWTW. It would have been better to not have been made like making a sequel to "The Wizard of Oz", just can't be done. I think Marageret Mitchell would have been mortified or as in her words, it would have given her the "vapors'!	negative
0	Static or other people	This monitor is awful. Do not waste your money. It certainly isn't "crystal clear." I can't hear my son in the next room. Often times I will wake up to another family waking up. How awkward.	negative
1	Why not subscribe and save?	Bought this to put in my fridge, and it was easy to install and works great. No problems there, however, since this is an item that you should change every six months, I think it would be helpful if this could be a Subscribe and Save item. I'd sign up so I wouldn't have to write the date on it and enter it into my calendar. First world problems, yes, but it would be helpful.	positive
0	First DC dvd I actually turned off	I love traditional animation and use to look forward to these dc direct releases but something has changed since first 5-6 releases. Sad use of talented Nathan Fillion in this, the stories just are not interesting. Feels like a rushed collection of boring mini stories to tie into a movie. The problem is for me BTAS, Batman Beyond and Justice League set such a standard I can watch them every year and enjoy them. The releases lately are not the same caliber. I dont know if their hands have been tied now. I wish they would stop playing amateur hour with voice acting when they have much better va options, Kilowog made no sense to me in this, sounded way too human.	negative
1	if you are intrigued by the emotion and science behind music, you will like this film	I had the pleasure of working on this film as both the online editor and colorist so I have watched it many times. The film tries to get to the "heart" of what music is and how it affects us on so many levels. While not a fast paced film, it still manages to grab and hold the viewers attention because the subject matter is so intriguing- How does one describe "music"? It brings forth both a visceral and physical response and the many interviewees are funny, thoughtful and insightful. If you are a musician or just love music than give this film a viewing!	positive
0	Unsafe and Broke In First Use	I bought these for my 21 month old son. I liked that they were simple, colorful, seem sturdy, and are non-toxic. However, these are VERY HEAVY items and NOT very STURDY at all, it turns out. He dropped the airplane twice the first day he was using it, and one of the wings came off immediately. He dropped the truck on his foot the other day and was in pain for a while after. I have taken them away and do not plan to give them back until he is much older -- I would say over 5 yrs of age. I may use them as decoration on a high shelf in his room but I would not let him play with them again until he is much older. And the box says "for 1+" !!!! ABSURD! I will look to other eco-friendly, non-toxic toys in the future, but no more Melissa and Doug.	negative
1	Wow	This album by shoegazers Slowdive is, in my opinion, an overlooked masterpiece. With some help from Brian Eno, Slowdive created a lush yet stark collection of subtle pop hooks and synth experimentation. It is unfortunate that MBV's Loveless seems to outshine everything else from the 1990s shoegazing scene when it comes to praise and recognition. Albums such as Souvlaki often get left behind.I enjoy the dreamy aura surrounding this album. Songs like "Allison" can get stuck in your head for days. There is much creative playing on the synths throughout. Bass work is excellent. Overall, I guess one can classify this great album as a dream pop album...one of the very best.The added bonus EP is great as well. The beat-heavy ambient electronic tracks are a pleasure to listen to. The band's cover of "Some Velvet Morning" is top-notch.	positive
0	Terrible	Brand new item that BUZZES loudly regardless of audio input (or lack of audio). Was forced to return the item immediately.	negative
1	Great book!	I bought this for my nine year old grandson's birthday. What a fun book. I would recommend this book. Has lots of fun and interesting airplane facts in it.	positive
1	Good ergonomic design.	Trackball type mice are becoming more expensive and harder to find, for some reason, in recent times. Especially the NON-Wireless (USB) ones.I have used the Logitech Trackball series of mice with great results, for a long time.However, this Microsoft USB Trackball Explorer mouse is really worth a look.All of the controls are very well placed, the right size and just the right amount of key travel and tactile feel.Quite recommended.	positive
0	Uninteresting writing, great cast	It was watchable, but there were many times when I was dying for the scene to be over and the next to start. The story was good, the actors were great. Reese Witherspoon is adorable and played the part well. Paul Rudd did a great job. But the dialog and the pace were not good. And poor Jack Nicholson. I wish he had better lines.My GF liked it and I didn't mind sitting through it, but it is two or three stars at best.	negative
1	The Kindle works	I bought the Kindle for my wife, primarily for her to use with her book club. She was thrilled on Christmas day; the setup and book ordering process went smoothly and after getting a cover to protect the device she's been happily carrying it around and using it regularly. My only complaint is the limited number of titles for sale.	positive
0	Disappointment	Being a huge Rosanne Cash fan, I found this CD disappointing, following on the heels of the masterpiece "Rules Of Travel", she changes to a more alt/rock type style. Her lyrics are cerebral, but one song she disses the faith that Johnny and June embraced. I understand the difficult time she has been thru. Mostly, the sound quality prevents me from enjoying it. Instead of letting Capital Records master it, she got someone who does hard rock records master, so it is overcompressed and full of distortion, when you compress a whole mix , you take away from the dynamics of the music. There are some songs like "Good Intent" that I probably would have enjoyed, but I can't listen to it. Looks like I am am the minority here, but I still am a Rosanne fan and probably will love her next record.	negative
0	Clean mids and highs, but no bass	If you like the sound of good quality bookshelf speakers - with the woofers removed - you'll love the ER6i's. There's a whole ritual involved in getting them inserted correctly (the casual observer might think you're having a seizure) and even the slightest difference in the way they're inserted causes significant changes in the sound, which goes from thin to thinner. Etymotic claims audiophile pleasing accuracy, but I don't consider it accurate when you completely chop off the whole lower end of the audio spectrum.The wires russling against your clothing cause an distractingly loud noise in your ears as well.I bought the Ultimate Ears SuperFi 5 earphones a few weeks after giving up on the Etymotics and, even though the price of the UE's is somewhat higher, the quality and extended range of their sound (full, deep, balanced bass, warm mids and clean highs) made it well worth it to me.	negative
0	Giant Disappointment	Hilary Mantel has a unique ability to tell a story through the conversations of her characters. The book is carried along by each character's thoughts and words. This story told in the Irish dialect of its subjects, is at times amusing and often poignant, but ultimately depressing. Frankly there were no surprises in this story. It ground along with the giant and his retinue heading for their predictable end.After reading Mantel's last book, Bring Up the Bodies, I was really disappointed in this one. She has certainly honed her craft since this early work.	negative
0	Saddest commentary	I am sad to say that my expending 35.00 for this book is a travesty. The author is not interested in seeing Edward de Vere, except through the eyes of antagonism and hostility. What accounts for this one can only wonder. Tagging this as a "biography" perpetuates the injustice from those that simply cannot let the large probability of deVere as Shakespeare exist. Methinks he doth protest way too much.	negative
0	Disappointed from Texas	If I had read some of the reviews I would never had purchased the book. When I looked at it closely I realized that it was something I really couldn't use because it did not include the up to date building requirements. If the title shown had mentioned 1932 edition it would have helped in my decsion whether to purchase the book or not. One thing I learned was that I need to check and double check before I purchase.	negative
1	Great Album	This album is definitley Alice In Chains' greatest and is a great album overall. It includes such hits as "Them Bones", "Rooster", "Angry Chair", and "Would?", but also includes non-singles which are worthy of talk-like "Dam That River".	positive
1	Where there's smoke there's usually fire...usually	Smokin Aces is a good action movie for those people that like action movies. It's funny, smart, and packed with good scenes that make it worth watching. There are enough twists and there is enough violence to liken it to other similar movies like Snatch, Ronin, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, and I enjoyed it. The HD-DVD combo worked well in my 360 HD-DVD player and showed marked improvement. I would recommend this to the action movie fan easily as well as anyone looking for a good HD-DVD to add to their collection.	positive
1	It's still the best~!	This keyboard replaces the same kind of keyboard...except that this one doesn't have the letters worn off, or the feet broken off, or other wear and tear problems. Despite the abuse it took over the years, my old Microsoft 4000 keyboard never missed a beat. I have been using the MS ergonomic keyboards for so long I can't type on a regular keyboard, nor would I ever want to again.Electronica Direct were the best too. Their price was substantially lower than other outlets which appeals to an old New Englander like me.At the EXACT same time I got the e-mail from Amazon telling me that the keyboard had been shipped, the UPS driver was on my stoop with the keyboard. That's not only quick, it's amazing~! Keep up the good work Electronica, and I hope to do more business with you in the future.Peace, Jeffrey	positive
0	sorry to say this...................	First of all, i`m a huge fan of BOC since secret teatries, but... DON'T waste your money in this piece of garbage, all the cd it's boring, boring,. ( it would be nice to see again the original BOC, with s.pearlman and the bouchard brothers)	negative
1	nick of time	I really like this book. The characters where 3 dimensional and the relationship was center of the storyline. The storyline was very interesting.	positive
1	Soup Thermos	The product is great for my kids to take soup to school, chichen nuggets or anything that needs to be kept warm. The only problem is my 5 year old has some trouble opening the wide lid, but can always get help.	positive
1	AWESOME BOOK!!!!	MY SON AND I LOVE THIS BOOK AND ALL THE MAGIC TREE HOUSE BOOKS ~ A MUST BUY FOR KIDS!!	positive
1	Entertaining	Is this a first time novelist you could never tell. This novel was well written and put together. Can't wait for her next one. CHEERS to Sungee	positive
1	YOU ARE A TOY!!	This is Disney/Pixar's first computer made movie. And is one of the best ever. This movie is awesome, love the characters and the story.	positive
0	One for obsessive fans	I was disappointed by this poorly made documentary. It consists mainly of talking heads that tend to repeat themselves. There is very little footage of Leonard Cohen and the obvious filler bits are irritating. 'I'm Your Man' and 'Ladies and Gentleman' are more worthwhile purchases.	negative
1	A spectular cinematic production!!	Product arrived promptly and in excellent condition. After watching the movie, I am inspired to read the relevant books and order any additional DVDs that are similar to this one.	positive
1	Tough but doable!	With several ballet conditioning exercises available it can be a difficult choice, but this is one of the best I've used. I have limited ballet experience but that is no matter with this DVD. It's easy to follow with instructions and counts, only hindrance for me was the inability to follow the rear leg lifts exactly. However I expect this to not be an issue with time and practice. The core workout was great! I could handle a bit more of it though. I expect to use it every other day in between cardio and weights.	positive
0	Cable Defective, Worked Intermittently	Cable Defective, Worked Intermittently. So, I threw it away. I gave the company a bad evaluation, and they credited me back. So, I guess that's something.	negative
1	One of my best dates involved this book	If all the 5 star reviews aren't enough, here's how this book touches children's lives: I was driving with a guy and had bought this for my friend's kid. He went ballistic with excitement when he saw it in the car, about how he'd had it as a child, and proceeded to read the book as we drove.The kid I bought it for loved it almost as much, and perhaps he will look back in 40 years with the same excitement.It's a classic and a nice way to get the message of looking at the brighter side of things to a kid.	positive
0	OK OK I'll try and be nice.	Let me put it this way, I tried walking out of the theater 3 times if it wasn't for my friend, he was having a nice nap and I didn't want to wake him. People, this is the most boring movie ever made in the history movies. From the story, if u want to call it a story, to the music, to the acting, everything was bad, trust me I'm being nice with the word bad. What was the director thinking? I'll stop here because I have nothing good to say, if your going to spend the money spend it on something good, not this movie.	negative
0	enjoyed the show	decided to watch after several seasons of emmy awards. More importantly, I have adjusted to the grim reminders of how it was for women (me) in my early adult careers;However, I paid for 1st season and only got 1st episode.... way too expensive to continue. Good thing my library loans it for free!	negative
1	very good keyboard and mouse	Being a woman i have shorter arms so at times i have to remind my body how to be best postured for using these, but overall they are great!	positive
1	Bible Prophecy for kids	Awesome book!! Can't wait to do a series teaching in children's church. It really breaks down revelation in away that children can grasp the words.	positive
1	buy this book!	i am very excited about this book. there are so many cute ideas for reconstructing your tshirts. i like how the projects are rated s-xl (s being simple, xl being more difficult) so beginners like me will know what projects i can tackle right away and what will need to wait until i am more experianced.	positive
1	Very Good	This product is very helpful when driving...I recommend it for anyone who drives and talks on the phone fequently.	positive
1	Perfect jeans	I hesitate to order jeans on-line, but Lucky jeans seems to fit me well, so I tried these. Awesome! May order another pair!!	positive
0	not what it looks like	this is not at all what it looks like I thought there were diamonds on it and it was just metal waste of money	negative
1	Volume Five As Brilliant As Ever	Bryan Lee O'Malley continues to shine; this latest volume is as grand as his first volume. The character dialogues/development are brilliant, per usual. If you've made it this far in the series you will not be disappointed by this latest installment. O'Malley's drawings are even more stunning than its predecessors.Then prepare yourself for the last of the epic volumes of Scott Pilgrim and the movie (in development) that is set to release with Michael Cera starring as Scott Pilgrim. It's sweeping the world; jump on board.	positive
1	Good Project !!!	Not as good as "Live in London" but still a very good project. CD and DVD are a part of my collection. Lots of Spirit-filled songs for the soul.	positive
0	Junk	Poorly made and never worked rite.Pops out the lighter plug all the time in all cars I tried it in.Not worth the headache or money to return so just cut my losses.Only good part was it was delivered fast...	negative
1	Great idea, but may need more pillows towards the end	I liked this pillow when I first got it. It's true the pillow cases do separate at the middle after a few washes, but it does a good job. Of course in the summer months, it feels bulky and uncomfortable, but then it's very hard to find relief at the end of pregnancy and in this heat too! I do recommend buying this pillow. It's snug and you can use it in many different ways, even if you use it for breast feeding once the baby is born.	positive
1	PD + Rescue Saved my life.	I somehow accidentally erased years of irreplaceable dj mixes from my computer. I was able to pull all of it off my ipod including the playlists back into my computer. This software works very simply and easily. I'm not in the least techy. If you own an ipod, you'd be foolish not to own this software. Absolutely essential software. I use this on a Mac.	positive
1	Must have!	Makes it possible to wear the ForeRunner outside the sleeve of your jacket - the extender even makes it fit outside several layers of clothing and above the wrist.I used the ForeRunner to navigate home on ski through whiteout conditions in the mountains - having it on my arm so that I could see it all the time without having to take off my gloves or put aside my skiing poles. In -10 degrees C (14 degrees F) that is kind of nice. Looking for a really useful GPS unit? Make sure you can use it in really cold conditions without freezing your fingers to icicles ...For normal use, I find this strap works much better than the regular plastic wrist strap which comes with the unit, and is very comfortable - especially on sweaty skin.Note: I would not recommend the ForeRunner as your only or primary wilderness GPS (one reason being that the battery is not replaceable). And don't leave home without a map and a compass - and the knowledge to use them ...	positive
1	Great movies that age very well	I love this box set and if you are a James Bond fan who always thought about buying the dvds now is your chance to have all of them at once!	positive
0	think twice	I purchased one of these three years ago - lightweight, heated.At this point, the bath itself is stained - unable to be cleaned.The footed legs have rusted off.The heating element has separated from the bath.	negative
1	You must pick this up!	I'm a third-year medical student, and I've been worrying for some time now about how I'd decide what specialty to go into. Of course, nothing substitutes for some good, old-fashioned soul-searching, but Dr. Freeman's book will certainly kick your inner dialogue into gear.What impressed me most about this book was the quality of information--everything was accurate, up-to-date, and written in an engaging way. I learned many things about each of the specialties I am consdering that I'd never read anywhere else. I also appreciated the fact that each specialty chapter is written by someone who's actually "been there, done that"--they're all written by residents.Overall, I highly recommend this book to any medical student who is pondering what specialty to choose.	positive
1	Great gift Idea	My grandpa loves this sign...he keeps it hanging on the fence in his driveway all year long!!!	positive
0	Don't waste your money.	This book is not worth toilet paper - which is long on fiction and short on fact. Don't waste your money.	negative
1	I love Michael Gettel	His music is absolutely beautiful, especially one song of his, called "Through Bucky's Eyes," it's kind of a sad, haunting tune, but it's good! I love all of Michael Gettel's stuff.	positive
0	Cheap product......	After 3 times it broke in pieces, end up buying something more reliable that lasted the whole ski season and many more to come......pay extra for a better item, cheap materials. Disposable glasses!	negative
0	Plastic bucket cracked to smitherines	We really enjoyed making ice cream last summer with this product. But this summer, when I took it out to use, the plastic bucket was filled with cracks, making it useless. Maybe it was from the salt last year, but I washed it really well before storing it. Not worth the money, in my opinion.	negative
1	Brillant, best buy for saves the day fans!	Excellently written both musically and lyrically. True it is different from the other albums but like people, band's music evolves and this is good example of that change.Any Saves the Day fan who can understand that will love the new album. On first listen I couldnt decide whether this was an album I would love but after the second listen I found myself humming the tune and singing along. A more mellow sound but still captures Chris Conley's outstanding talent and the band's quality of music is still as incredible as always.	positive
1	My favorite Beatle.	I did not realize until after George Harrison died, that his mustic was some of my favorite Beatle music. For some reason, I thought a few of his songs were John Lennon's. Until I bought this CD I did not give him the credit he deserved. Sorry about that George, better luck in the after life.	positive
1	Saves money and does a good job	I've been using the reusable k-cup every day since Christmas. Unlike some reviewers here I use it with the Mr Coffee Keurig Brewer since I do not own the Keurig coffee brewer. The reusable filter is easy to use. I have not experienced splashing like others have mentioned. I did notice a stronger cup with using fine grain coffee. I had trouble finding fine grain coffee or espresso for a decent price, but finally found Cafe Bustelo. It's a good quality, fine grain espresso for a cheap price! Check the reviews & you'll see it has between 4 1/2 to 5 star review average. I highly recommend it.	positive
1	wonderful book	i read this book after I know this much is true and was not dissapointed. this is a really lovely book. the story is really good and its a page turner. I really wanted to know: what will happen to dolores? the ending was slightly dissapointing, but this should be ignored - the rest of the book is fabulous.	positive
0	low quality printing, margins are differ and NO TRANSCRIPTION	I disappointed with this dictionary, I ordered this one cause it has very good rating, but it appears to worth less then it cost:paper quality too lowprinting quality too low, it even hard to read some pagesmargins are differ from page to pagethere is neither russian nor english transcriptions, which makes hard to guess for learnersdefinitely not recommended	negative
0	2 ripped on me	I love the style, the color, and the functionality, but I had one and the large pocket frayed and ripped. I returned it for another one and it did it again.	negative
1	yellow love	this is a great shoe - super comfy and love the pop of color on my feet. i normally wear a 9.5 and order an 8.5 and that was perfect.	positive
0	Unspeakably bad	This album is very unsatisfactory. The singing, above all, is not of an acceptable standard. None of the renditions are good. Most, in fact, are unspeakably bad.This certainly is among the worst vocal releases that I've ever heard. (And I've heard hundreds of them.)	negative
0	Keyboard is O.K. but mouse does not work well!	I am very disappointed in the mouse performance. It is jittery, jerky and often unresponsive.I am running Windows 7 and have loaded the CD , adjusted everything using the control panel mouse section, changed the usb to the front of the processor and done everything I know to do. It just doesn't work as well as my old Logitech.	negative
1	Good, sturdy collar	I got this to keep my cat from licking off a dip after baths when he had a skin infection. Other collars would bend and he could still lick his flanks. This collar was sturdy/more rigid and he couldn't lick off the dip. Other collars also irritated him. This one didn't bother him while he wore it- he did not try to get it off.	positive
0	this cart is not strong enough	although we use it just for weekend shopping, after one month,part of the cart broken.i think this cart is not strong enough and don't worth the price.	negative
1	stereo cd clock radio alarm	bought this as a x-mas gift for my son. He loved it and it works great.It's very loud so it gets them up when needed.	positive
1	gets the job done	We live off the grid and sometimes need a heavy duty drill to do farm repairs. Our nice little 14 volt is great for small jobs, but for those times when we need to drill into fence posts and have alot of power with a battery that lasts, this was our solution. The drill is heavy so we still need our 14 volt (also a Dewalt) for roofing screws and small jobs. The XRP battery is so long lasting that we do not need to spring for a lithium battery.	positive
0	Leaked Quickly With First Use	We never got to sleep on this bed, although it seemed like it would have been quite comfortable, except for one major issue: After following the set-up and inflation instructions carefully, the bed began leaking like a sieve. It wouldn't stay inflated for more than 3 hours, let alone an entire night. The manufacturer could offer no specific help, and instructed us to return it to Amazon.	negative
0	Great tool, but craftmanship is poor	Believe me I love his calculator for all it cando. But unfortunetly it is not built well enough. The LCD screen on my calculator cracked spilling the blue fluid inside my calculator. Ironically, it fell while my case was ON.	negative
1	Very complete	I have to admit, I was surprised to see the emphasis on native plants and was so glad I did. In past books by Rodale Press they didn't pay attention to this and it really bothered me. This book is great though- it talks to all sorts of different needs of birds - from nesting areas to food/water. It has lots and lots of fun facts about birds and their lifestyles/needs and info on feeders. And of course its packed with all sorts of great gardening ideas (bushes, hedgerows, "weeds", benefits of leaf piles, etc). Attention is given to different regions of the country as well. Super book for any bird lover!!	positive
1	Good sauce pot heavy but lid doesnot fit tightly	This sauce pot does the job and very good at that but the only complaint I have is the lid is very loose and the lid end goes in to the pot for something like 5mm only. Hence be careful when you move the pan, the lid might slide off and fall and hurt your toe. Hence 4 four stars otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.The bottom of the pan has honey comb pattern for even heat conduction and does a good job.It is a good sauce pot and worth the money.	positive
0	Overall disappointing....	I was very disappointed by this film. As an avid Dostoyevsky admirer, I was hoping for a cerebral, much more thought provoking film. Instead, I was dealt with a film that felt liked dumbed down Dostoyevsky. The filmmakers should have known that a film like this would have had only a limited audience, and should have done a full blown Dostoyevsky adaptation, with all the despair and grief and joy that accompanies his novels and short stories. They played it way too safe. The ending of the film is rather pretentious as well. On the plus side, Henry Czerny is very good as the title character. He is an intense, brooding actor that fits in well with Dostoyevsky's machinations. Sheryl Lee is good as the prostitute who the underground man "saves", then abandons. The rest of the film has awkward fantasy sequences and bland performances. Read the novella instead.	negative
0	Therapeutic for the author, but too fluffy for the reader	The author wrote this booklet and drew the illustrations to help her work through her depression. I'm glad it helped her, but I found it to be an extremely thin and repetitious "don't give up." That's an important message for people suffering through depression, but I found no insights worth holding on to.	negative
1	awesome album	From zero, lostprophets, and unloco are all coming along incredibly well, and I think they will be the next wave of metal following the footsteps of godsmack, sevendust, system of a down, and korn. The best songs on this album are: check ya, erase, jeer, and otherside. The rest of the tracks are still worth playing, and they certainly aren't filler tracks. Every song on this album is unique in its own way, and they distort almost as well as incubus.	positive
0	Jane Austen series; Misrepresentation of closed caption	All six DVD's in the Jane Austen Collection [Sensibility / Emma / Persuasion / Mansfield Park / Pride and Prejucice /and Northanger Abbey] have closed caption [cc] and [subtitles are in English] printed on their jackets. When played, not one of the six DVD,s have closed caption on the disk itself. I and millions of people depend on closed caption in order to view a movie. Why are companies allowed to get away with these discrepancies? This is a frustrating problem for the deaf and the hard of hearing. Can anything be done with these discrepancies?I am very pleased with being a customer of Amazon.com. When I contacted Amazon.com and stated the problem with the disks, they picked up the Jane Austen Collection the next day and I am getting a full refund. You can't beat service like that.	negative

0	Disappointing	Like the other books following the original Dragonlance series and the "War of the Twins" books, this disappoints. Why do Weis and Hickman think a world without magic will interest fantasy fans? We get that in real life. The inglorious endings of beloved characters are extremely unsatisfying. One must wonder if the authors are simply tired of writing this series.	negative
1	Great resource on the Grail Lore	Ronan Coghlan has done a who's who on Grail Lore, with wonderful illustrations by Courtney Davis. Very readable, it lists all the characters surrounding Arthur and the myths and legends legends of the Knight of the Round Table. Coghlan is the Author of other useful books, Dictionary of Irish Myths and Legends and Irish Christian Names. Just not a list of people with a footnote of who they were, he fully references the listing with other writers of fiction and history.So not only is this a super reference to Grail lore is a good interface in history as well.It also covers places as well as people.

1	Amazing	This product has saved the day on more than one occasion. Simply toss the affected item in the washer along with some of Nature's Miracle and allow it to soak for a few hours. Then wash as normal.Also a great product if you've inadvertently allowed wet towels to sit too long.	positive
0	It takes over your computer.	I'm a professional and have purchased QuickBooks versions every year since 2002, and additional years prior to 2002. That said, the 2007 version has an entirely different front-end design which one has to get used to. But more importantly, I suspect this new version interferes with the operation of XP Profesessional on my computer. I'm not an IT guy, but that's my take.I resent software which installs user IDs on a computer and modifies the computer's normal operation. I've only used the software briefly for one client, but I know this...my computer will not shut down normally. I now have to click "turn off" twice. And when I boot up, I now have to select myself as user because QB2007 installed a user for itself.Sometimes developers should just leave well enough alone. I can't wait to uninstall this thing.	negative
0	rehash rehash rehash!	i saw this book at a book store and picked it up after reading the intro. great intro, btw. i bought it on amazon later, and when it arrived i started reading it.why does she repeat herself OVER and OVER again?it's very annoying! she introduces an idea and just when you think she's done, she's saying the same thing AGAIN. the actual amount of content in the book isn't all that great. it only has the number of pages that it has because of its repetitive nature. the book should fit in half the number of pages that it has.also, the book feels like a good college research paper. she's done research and managed to pull together some info and slapped it into a book. there doesn't really seem to be much original idea in it.it's horrible.	negative
1	"Laundry Service" shows Shakira's unique style	Shakira has succeeded in creating an innovative style that is unlike any other genre today. In her CD, "Laundry Service," she mixes pop, Latin techniques, and even Arabic influences. In her song, "Ojos Asi," she fuses Arabic lyrics and music with her own unique style to create a work that is not corny at all but rather one of the CD's best songs. Using a variety of instruments and rhythms, Shakira produces all of her own songs and lyrics. Her voice is part of her superb style. When she sings, her voice is completey real and her lyrics are even more genuine. This is something that most female "sensations" of today cannot say. She sings beautiful ballads in both English and Spanish. Three of her songs on this CD have become hits. Though not all of the songs on the CD are award winners, most are good and more than half are of superior quality.	positive
1	Indispensable	We have 2 copies of 40 studies about the house.

0	A beautiful, empty glass	I agree with all those who said that it took at least 100 pages to become engaged with this novel. And that may not, ultimately, been worth the effort. Many, many of Harrison's sentences and descriptions are breathtaking. Those sentences, those descriptions, are so beautiful. Beyond those glittering things there is, sadly, not much else.	negative
1	The Beginning	This is where the dark saga of the band previously known as Purgatory began. Iced Earth puts out some great songs on this album despite the bad vocals of Gene Adams and bad production (not as bad as Killing's my Business, but still...) I mean come on. Which guy told Gene Adams he could sing? Ugh. Anyway, true classics of metal are put out on this record. The namesake track, Colors, Life and Death, Funeral, and When The Night Falls are my favorite tracks. When the Night Falls is my favorite Iced Earth song by far and away, probably tied with Melancholy. For die hard Iced Earth fans,you already own this so why should I tell you to get it? For fans looking to get interested in the band, I recommend Dark Saga or Something Wicked before this one.	positive
1	I couldn't put it down!	I read this book in three days..which never happens for me! I simply could not put it down! Zadie's witty comments and thoughts on life made me laugh out loud! Some of the characters are how I picture LA and why I don't want to go, but then if there are people there like Zadie..then I should be on the next flight out. This would make a PERFECT movie, I hope it happens! I recommend this book to any woman, younger or older, because it will simply make you smile, laugh, and crave more!	positive
1	Last of a great Product.	This Pioneer magazine cd changer is the last of great home electronics products. The design is sleek and the sound is amazing. They focus on the fact that this is a cd changer and tried not to do more than what they should have. The fact that it is a magazine and not a carousel keeps my cd's from being scrached or spinning freely making that horrible griding sound like in other cd changers. I would recommend this to anybody that wants a great and fun design, with great quality sound!	positive

1	fabulous resource	This is a fabulous book, whether you are interested in Sumter County history or not. The stories are interesting, the information is helpful, and the topics are diverse. The real extra value is the explanation of WHY things were happening. This is not your standard chest-thumping local history, but includes a thought provoking explanation of the dynamic Southern mores. It is easy to be judgemental from the distance of time, but it is another to see the evolution of certain practices and habits. It opened my eyes to a whole other level of understanding of Southern history. A wonderful book!	positive

1	Good lawyer/detective book	I don't normally read books about lawyers for the same reason my father, a World War II vet, refused to watch army movies: we've lived the life, so there's no reason to read about it in fiction. My wife, however, read this book and recommended it highly to me, and I couldn't tell her no. I'm happy to have read it, for it's well written and quite interesting, from the beginning to the rather surprising ending. Now I'm not one who usually tries to figure out "whodunnit" as I go along, for I assume that the author will eventually reveal all. In this case, even my incipient suspicions were dashed constantly by the twists and turns of the plot, and it kept me very interested in what was happening. Luckily, there's more of the "detective" mode to this book than the "lawyer" mode, which suited me just fine. I've never practiced in the courts in Philadelphia, but just reading about it makes me very happy that I work in the rural areas. That's too fast-paced a life for me!	positive
1	Black and Decker Never Disappoints	I give this book high marks for clear, concise, step-by-step explanations and LOTS of pictures.

Not for GWTW fans!!

I have read both the original GWTW as well as Alexandria Ripley's, Scarlett, watched both movies and listened to the book on tape of "Scarlett" and while I think it is an ok follow-up not for the die hard GWTW fans!! We know what her personality was supposed to be, what Margaret Mitchell intended her to be. I think she was playing to be helpless but she really wasn't helpless. You also cannot simply follow Vivian Leigh or Clark Gable. Joanne Whaley-Kilmer and Timothy Dalton acting was ok, but just ok. It was ok for a made for tv movie wrote like a soap opera, but not for a follow up to GWTW. It would have been better to not have been made like making a sequel to "The Wizard of Oz", just can't be done. I think Marageret Mitchell would have been mortified or as in her words, it would have given her the "vapors'!

Why not subscribe and save?

Bought this to put in my fridge, and it was easy to install and works great. No problems there, however, since this is an item that you should change every six months, I think it would be helpful if this could be a Subscribe and Save item. I'd sign up so I wouldn't have to write the date on it and enter it into my calendar. First world problems, yes, but it would be helpful.

First DC dvd I actually turned off

I love traditional animation and use to look forward to these dc direct releases but something has changed since first 5-6 releases. Sad use of talented Nathan Fillion in this, the stories just are not interesting. Feels like a rushed collection of boring mini stories to tie into a movie. The problem is for me BTAS, Batman Beyond and Justice League set such a standard I can watch them every year and enjoy them. The releases lately are not the same caliber. I dont know if their hands have been tied now. I wish they would stop playing amateur hour with voice acting when they have much better va options, Kilowog made no sense to me in this, sounded way too human.

if you are intrigued by the emotion and science behind music, you will like this film

I had the pleasure of working on this film as both the online editor and colorist so I have watched it many times. The film tries to get to the "heart" of what music is and how it affects us on so many levels. While not a fast paced film, it still manages to grab and hold the viewers attention because the subject matter is so intriguing- How does one describe "music"? It brings forth both a visceral and physical response and the many interviewees are funny, thoughtful and insightful. If you are a musician or just love music than give this film a viewing!

Unsafe and Broke In First Use

I bought these for my 21 month old son. I liked that they were simple, colorful, seem sturdy, and are non-toxic. However, these are VERY HEAVY items and NOT very STURDY at all, it turns out. He dropped the airplane twice the first day he was using it, and one of the wings came off immediately. He dropped the truck on his foot the other day and was in pain for a while after. I have taken them away and do not plan to give them back until he is much older -- I would say over 5 yrs of age. I may use them as decoration on a high shelf in his room but I would not let him play with them again until he is much older. And the box says "for 1+" !!!! ABSURD! I will look to other eco-friendly, non-toxic toys in the future, but no more Melissa and Doug.

Wow

This album by shoegazers Slowdive is, in my opinion, an overlooked masterpiece. With some help from Brian Eno, Slowdive created a lush yet stark collection of subtle pop hooks and synth experimentation. It is unfortunate that MBV's Loveless seems to outshine everything else from the 1990s shoegazing scene when it comes to praise and recognition. Albums such as Souvlaki often get left behind.I enjoy the dreamy aura surrounding this album. Songs like "Allison" can get stuck in your head for days. There is much creative playing on the synths throughout. Bass work is excellent. Overall, I guess one can classify this great album as a dream pop album...one of the very best.The added bonus EP is great as well. The beat-heavy ambient electronic tracks are a pleasure to listen to. The band's cover of "Some Velvet Morning" is top-notch.

Especially the NON-Wireless (USB) ones.I have used the Logitech Trackball series of mice with great results, for a long time.However, this Microsoft USB Trackball Explorer mouse is really worth a look.All of the controls are very well placed, the right size and just the right amount of key travel and tactile feel.Quite recommended.

Uninteresting writing, great cast

It was watchable, but there were many times when I was dying for the scene to be over and the next to start. The story was good, the actors were great. Reese Witherspoon is adorable and played the part well. Paul Rudd did a great job. But the dialog and the pace were not good. And poor Jack Nicholson. I wish he had better lines.My GF liked it and I didn't mind sitting through it, but it is two or three stars at best.

I bought the Kindle for my wife, primarily for her to use with her book club.

My only complaint is the limited number of titles for sale.

Disappointment

Being a huge Rosanne Cash fan, I found this CD disappointing, following on the heels of the masterpiece "Rules Of Travel", she changes to a more alt/rock type style. Her lyrics are cerebral, but one song she disses the faith that Johnny and June embraced. I understand the difficult time she has been thru. Mostly, the sound quality prevents me from enjoying it. Instead of letting Capital Records master it, she got someone who does hard rock records master, so it is overcompressed and full of distortion, when you compress a whole mix , you take away from the dynamics of the music. There are some songs like "Good Intent" that I probably would have enjoyed, but I can't listen to it. Looks like I am am the minority here, but I still am a Rosanne fan and probably will love her next record.

Clean mids and highs, but no bass

If you like the sound of good quality bookshelf speakers - with the woofers removed - you'll love the ER6i's. There's a whole ritual involved in getting them inserted correctly (the casual observer might think you're having a seizure) and even the slightest difference in the way they're inserted causes significant changes in the sound, which goes from thin to thinner. Etymotic claims audiophile pleasing accuracy, but I don't consider it accurate when you completely chop off the whole lower end of the audio spectrum.The wires russling against your clothing cause an distractingly loud noise in your ears as well.I bought the Ultimate Ears SuperFi 5 earphones a few weeks after giving up on the Etymotics and, even though the price of the UE's is somewhat higher, the quality and extended range of their sound (full, deep, balanced bass, warm mids and clean highs) made it well worth it to me.

Giant Disappointment

Hilary Mantel has a unique ability to tell a story through the conversations of her characters. The book is carried along by each character's thoughts and words. This story told in the Irish dialect of its subjects, is at times amusing and often poignant, but ultimately depressing. Frankly there were no surprises in this story. It ground along with the giant and his retinue heading for their predictable end.After reading Mantel's last book, Bring Up the Bodies, I was really disappointed in this one. She has certainly honed her craft since this early work.

Saddest commentary

I am sad to say that my expending 35.00 for this book is a travesty. The author is not interested in seeing Edward de Vere, except through the eyes of antagonism and hostility. What accounts for this one can only wonder. Tagging this as a "biography" perpetuates the injustice from those that simply cannot let the large probability of deVere as Shakespeare exist. Methinks he doth protest way too much.

Disappointed from Texas

If I had read some of the reviews I would never had purchased the book. When I looked at it closely I realized that it was something I really couldn't use because it did not include the up to date building requirements. If the title shown had mentioned 1932 edition it would have helped in my decsion whether to purchase the book or not. One thing I learned was that I need to check and double check before I purchase.

Where there's smoke there's usually fire...usually

Smokin Aces is a good action movie for those people that like action movies. It's funny, smart, and packed with good scenes that make it worth watching. There are enough twists and there is enough violence to liken it to other similar movies like Snatch, Ronin, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, and I enjoyed it. The HD-DVD combo worked well in my 360 HD-DVD player and showed marked improvement. I would recommend this to the action movie fan easily as well as anyone looking for a good HD-DVD to add to their collection.

It's still the best~!

This keyboard replaces the same kind of keyboard...except that this one doesn't have the letters worn off, or the feet broken off, or other wear and tear problems. Despite the abuse it took over the years, my old Microsoft 4000 keyboard never missed a beat. I have been using the MS ergonomic keyboards for so long I can't type on a regular keyboard, nor would I ever want to again.Electronica Direct were the best too. Their price was substantially lower than other outlets which appeals to an old New Englander like me.At the EXACT same time I got the e-mail from Amazon telling me that the keyboard had been shipped, the UPS driver was on my stoop with the keyboard. That's not only quick, it's amazing~! Keep up the good work Electronica, and I hope to do more business with you in the future.Peace, Jeffrey

With several ballet conditioning exercises available it can be a difficult choice, but this is one of the best I've used. I have limited ballet experience but that is no matter with this DVD. It's easy to follow with instructions and counts, only hindrance for me was the inability to follow the rear leg lifts exactly. However I expect this to not be an issue with time and practice. The core workout was great! I could handle a bit more of it though. I expect to use it every other day in between cardio and weights.

One of my best dates involved this book

If all the 5 star reviews aren't enough, here's how this book touches children's lives: I was driving with a guy and had bought this for my friend's kid. He went ballistic with excitement when he saw it in the car, about how he'd had it as a child, and proceeded to read the book as we drove.The kid I bought it for loved it almost as much, and perhaps he will look back in 40 years with the same excitement.It's a classic and a nice way to get the message of looking at the brighter side of things to a kid.

Let me put it this way, I tried walking out of the theater 3 times if it wasn't for my friend, he was having a nice nap and I didn't want to wake him. People, this is the most boring movie ever made in the history movies. From the story, if u want to call it a story, to the music, to the acting, everything was bad, trust me I'm being nice with the word bad. What was the director thinking? I'll stop here because I have nothing good to say, if your going to spend the money spend it on something good, not this movie.

Great idea, but may need more pillows towards the end

I liked this pillow when I first got it. It's true the pillow cases do separate at the middle after a few washes, but it does a good job. Of course in the summer months, it feels bulky and uncomfortable, but then it's very hard to find relief at the end of pregnancy and in this heat too! I do recommend buying this pillow. It's snug and you can use it in many different ways, even if you use it for breast feeding once the baby is born.

Must have!

Makes it possible to wear the ForeRunner outside the sleeve of your jacket - the extender even makes it fit outside several layers of clothing and above the wrist.I used the ForeRunner to navigate home on ski through whiteout conditions in the mountains - having it on my arm so that I could see it all the time without having to take off my gloves or put aside my skiing poles. In -10 degrees C (14 degrees F) that is kind of nice. Looking for a really useful GPS unit? Make sure you can use it in really cold conditions without freezing your fingers to icicles ...For normal use, I find this strap works much better than the regular plastic wrist strap which comes with the unit, and is very comfortable - especially on sweaty skin.Note: I would not recommend the ForeRunner as your only or primary wilderness GPS (one reason being that the battery is not replaceable). And don't leave home without a map and a compass - and the knowledge to use them ...

You must pick this up!

I'm a third-year medical student, and I've been worrying for some time now about how I'd decide what specialty to go into. Of course, nothing substitutes for some good, old-fashioned soul-searching, but Dr. Freeman's book will certainly kick your inner dialogue into gear.What impressed me most about this book was the quality of information--everything was accurate, up-to-date, and written in an engaging way. I learned many things about each of the specialties I am consdering that I'd never read anywhere else. I also appreciated the fact that each specialty chapter is written by someone who's actually "been there, done that"--they're all written by residents.Overall, I highly recommend this book to any medical student who is pondering what specialty to choose.

Brillant, best buy for saves the day fans!

Excellently written both musically and lyrically. True it is different from the other albums but like people, band's music evolves and this is good example of that change.Any Saves the Day fan who can understand that will love the new album. On first listen I couldnt decide whether this was an album I would love but after the second listen I found myself humming the tune and singing along. A more mellow sound but still captures Chris Conley's outstanding talent and the band's quality of music is still as incredible as always.

I've been using the reusable k-cup every day since Christmas. Unlike some reviewers here I use it with the Mr Coffee Keurig Brewer since I do not own the Keurig coffee brewer.

I had trouble finding fine grain coffee or espresso for a decent price, but finally found Cafe Bustelo. It's a good quality, fine grain espresso for a cheap price! Check the reviews & you'll see it has between 4 1/2 to 5 star review average. I highly recommend it.

2 ripped on me

I love the style, the color, and the functionality, but I had one and the large pocket frayed and ripped. I returned it for another one and it did it again.

Unspeakably bad

This album is very unsatisfactory. The singing, above all, is not of an acceptable standard. None of the renditions are good. Most, in fact, are unspeakably bad.This certainly is among the worst vocal releases that I've ever heard. (And I've heard hundreds of them.)

Keyboard is O.K. but mouse does not work well!

I am very disappointed in the mouse performance. It is jittery, jerky and often unresponsive.I am running Windows 7 and have loaded the CD , adjusted everything using the control panel mouse section, changed the usb to the front of the processor and done everything I know to do. It just doesn't work as well as my old Logitech.

Good, sturdy collar

I got this to keep my cat from licking off a dip after baths when he had a skin infection. Other collars would bend and he could still lick his flanks. This collar was sturdy/more rigid and he couldn't lick off the dip. Other collars also irritated him. This one didn't bother him while he wore it- he did not try to get it off.

gets the job done

We live off the grid and sometimes need a heavy duty drill to do farm repairs. Our nice little 14 volt is great for small jobs, but for those times when we need to drill into fence posts and have alot of power with a battery that lasts, this was our solution. The drill is heavy so we still need our 14 volt (also a Dewalt) for roofing screws and small jobs. The XRP battery is so long lasting that we do not need to spring for a lithium battery.

Leaked Quickly With First Use

We never got to sleep on this bed, although it seemed like it would have been quite comfortable, except for one major issue: After following the set-up and inflation instructions carefully, the bed began leaking like a sieve. It wouldn't stay inflated for more than 3 hours, let alone an entire night. The manufacturer could offer no specific help, and instructed us to return it to Amazon.

Great tool, but craftmanship is poor

Believe me I love his calculator for all it cando. But unfortunetly it is not built well enough. The LCD screen on my calculator cracked spilling the blue fluid inside my calculator. Ironically, it fell while my case was ON.

Very complete

I have to admit, I was surprised to see the emphasis on native plants and was so glad I did. In past books by Rodale Press they didn't pay attention to this and it really bothered me. This book is great though- it talks to all sorts of different needs of birds - from nesting areas to food/water. It has lots and lots of fun facts about birds and their lifestyles/needs and info on feeders. And of course its packed with all sorts of great gardening ideas (bushes, hedgerows, "weeds", benefits of leaf piles, etc). Attention is given to different regions of the country as well. Super book for any bird lover!!

Good sauce pot heavy but lid doesnot fit tightly

This sauce pot does the job and very good at that but the only complaint I have is the lid is very loose and the lid end goes in to the pot for something like 5mm only. Hence be careful when you move the pan, the lid might slide off and fall and hurt your toe. Hence 4 four stars otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.The bottom of the pan has honey comb pattern for even heat conduction and does a good job.It is a good sauce pot and worth the money.

Overall disappointing....

I was very disappointed by this film. As an avid Dostoyevsky admirer, I was hoping for a cerebral, much more thought provoking film. Instead, I was dealt with a film that felt liked dumbed down Dostoyevsky. The filmmakers should have known that a film like this would have had only a limited audience, and should have done a full blown Dostoyevsky adaptation, with all the despair and grief and joy that accompanies his novels and short stories. They played it way too safe. The ending of the film is rather pretentious as well. On the plus side, Henry Czerny is very good as the title character. He is an intense, brooding actor that fits in well with Dostoyevsky's machinations. Sheryl Lee is good as the prostitute who the underground man "saves", then abandons. The rest of the film has awkward fantasy sequences and bland performances. Read the novella instead.

Therapeutic for the author, but too fluffy for the reader

The author wrote this booklet and drew the illustrations to help her work through her depression. I'm glad it helped her, but I found it to be an extremely thin and repetitious "don't give up." That's an important message for people suffering through depression, but I found no insights worth holding on to.

awesome album

From zero, lostprophets, and unloco are all coming along incredibly well, and I think they will be the next wave of metal following the footsteps of godsmack, sevendust, system of a down, and korn. The best songs on this album are: check ya, erase, jeer, and otherside. The rest of the tracks are still worth playing, and they certainly aren't filler tracks. Every song on this album is unique in its own way, and they distort almost as well as incubus.

Jane Austen series; Misrepresentation of closed caption

All six DVD's in the Jane Austen Collection [Sensibility / Emma / Persuasion / Mansfield Park / Pride and Prejucice /and Northanger Abbey] have closed caption [cc] and [subtitles are in English] printed on their jackets. When played, not one of the six DVD,s have closed caption on the disk itself. I and millions of people depend on closed caption in order to view a movie. Why are companies allowed to get away with these discrepancies? This is a frustrating problem for the deaf and the hard of hearing. Can anything be done with these discrepancies?I am very pleased with being a customer of Amazon.com. When I contacted Amazon.com and stated the problem with the disks, they picked up the Jane Austen Collection the next day and I am getting a full refund. You can't beat service like that.

Disappointing

Like the other books following the original Dragonlance series and the "War of the Twins" books, this disappoints. Why do Weis and Hickman think a world without magic will interest fantasy fans? We get that in real life. The inglorious endings of beloved characters are extremely unsatisfying. One must wonder if the authors are simply tired of writing this series.

Great resource on the Grail Lore

Ronan Coghlan has done a who's who on Grail Lore, with wonderful illustrations by Courtney Davis. Very readable, it lists all the characters surrounding Arthur and the myths and legends legends of the Knight of the Round Table. Coghlan is the Author of other useful books, Dictionary of Irish Myths and Legends and Irish Christian Names. Just not a list of people with a footnote of who they were, he fully references the listing with other writers of fiction and history.So not only is this a super reference to Grail lore is a good interface in history as well.It also covers places as well as people. Highly recommended for all Grail Library.

This product has saved the day on more than one occasion. Simply toss the affected item in the washer along with some of Nature's Miracle and allow it to soak for a few hours. Then wash as normal.Also a great product if you've inadvertently allowed wet towels to sit too long.

It takes over your computer.

I'm a professional and have purchased QuickBooks versions every year since 2002, and additional years prior to 2002. That said, the 2007 version has an entirely different front-end design which one has to get used to. But more importantly, I suspect this new version interferes with the operation of XP Profesessional on my computer. I'm not an IT guy, but that's my take.I resent software which installs user IDs on a computer and modifies the computer's normal operation. I've only used the software briefly for one client, but I know this...my computer will not shut down normally. I now have to click "turn off" twice. And when I boot up, I now have to select myself as user because QB2007 installed a user for itself.Sometimes developers should just leave well enough alone. I can't wait to uninstall this thing.

rehash rehash rehash!

i saw this book at a book store and picked it up after reading the intro. great intro, btw. i bought it on amazon later, and when it arrived i started reading it.why does she repeat herself OVER and OVER again?it's very annoying! she introduces an idea and just when you think she's done, she's saying the same thing AGAIN. the actual amount of content in the book isn't all that great. it only has the number of pages that it has because of its repetitive nature. the book should fit in half the number of pages that it has.also, the book feels like a good college research paper. she's done research and managed to pull together some info and slapped it into a book. there doesn't really seem to be much original idea in it.it's horrible.

"Laundry Service" shows Shakira's unique style

Shakira has succeeded in creating an innovative style that is unlike any other genre today. In her CD, "Laundry Service," she mixes pop, Latin techniques, and even Arabic influences. In her song, "Ojos Asi," she fuses Arabic lyrics and music with her own unique style to create a work that is not corny at all but rather one of the CD's best songs. Using a variety of instruments and rhythms, Shakira produces all of her own songs and lyrics. Her voice is part of her superb style. When she sings, her voice is completey real and her lyrics are even more genuine. This is something that most female "sensations" of today cannot say. She sings beautiful ballads in both English and Spanish. Three of her songs on this CD have become hits. Though not all of the songs on the CD are award winners, most are good and more than half are of superior quality.

We have 2 copies of 40 studies about the house. When reading any introductory psychology book, I find it more fun to look up the original research than to read the summary(sometimes incorrect summary) as written by the author of the introductory psychology textbook. Cindy Marriott

A beautiful, empty glass

I agree with all those who said that it took at least 100 pages to become engaged with this novel. And that may not, ultimately, been worth the effort. Many, many of Harrison's sentences and descriptions are breathtaking. Those sentences, those descriptions, are so beautiful. Beyond those glittering things there is, sadly, not much else.

The Beginning

This is where the dark saga of the band previously known as Purgatory began. Iced Earth puts out some great songs on this album despite the bad vocals of Gene Adams and bad production (not as bad as Killing's my Business, but still...) I mean come on. Which guy told Gene Adams he could sing? Ugh. Anyway, true classics of metal are put out on this record. The namesake track, Colors, Life and Death, Funeral, and When The Night Falls are my favorite tracks. When the Night Falls is my favorite Iced Earth song by far and away, probably tied with Melancholy. For die hard Iced Earth fans,you already own this so why should I tell you to get it? For fans looking to get interested in the band, I recommend Dark Saga or Something Wicked before this one.

I couldn't put it down!

I read this book in three days..which never happens for me! I simply could not put it down! Zadie's witty comments and thoughts on life made me laugh out loud! Some of the characters are how I picture LA and why I don't want to go, but then if there are people there like Zadie..then I should be on the next flight out. This would make a PERFECT movie, I hope it happens! I recommend this book to any woman, younger or older, because it will simply make you smile, laugh, and crave more!

Last of a great Product.

This Pioneer magazine cd changer is the last of great home electronics products. The design is sleek and the sound is amazing. They focus on the fact that this is a cd changer and tried not to do more than what they should have. The fact that it is a magazine and not a carousel keeps my cd's from being scrached or spinning freely making that horrible griding sound like in other cd changers. I would recommend this to anybody that wants a great and fun design, with great quality sound!

A BLACK AMERICAN CLASSIC

This is an excellent movie. We all have known of a charter like this or actually met this character in our own lives. I love this movie because the people are real. You can feel what is going on and as usual Sheryl Lee Ralph is beautiful and an excellent actress. Sheryl is so underrated. This is a family movie that you will treasure.

fabulous resource

This is a fabulous book, whether you are interested in Sumter County history or not. The stories are interesting, the information is helpful, and the topics are diverse. The real extra value is the explanation of WHY things were happening. This is not your standard chest-thumping local history, but includes a thought provoking explanation of the dynamic Southern mores. It is easy to be judgemental from the distance of time, but it is another to see the evolution of certain practices and habits. It opened my eyes to a whole other level of understanding of Southern history. A wonderful book!

Good lawyer/detective book

I don't normally read books about lawyers for the same reason my father, a World War II vet, refused to watch army movies: we've lived the life, so there's no reason to read about it in fiction. My wife, however, read this book and recommended it highly to me, and I couldn't tell her no. I'm happy to have read it, for it's well written and quite interesting, from the beginning to the rather surprising ending. Now I'm not one who usually tries to figure out "whodunnit" as I go along, for I assume that the author will eventually reveal all. In this case, even my incipient suspicions were dashed constantly by the twists and turns of the plot, and it kept me very interested in what was happening. Luckily, there's more of the "detective" mode to this book than the "lawyer" mode, which suited me just fine. I've never practiced in the courts in Philadelphia, but just reading about it makes me very happy that I work in the rural areas. That's too fast-paced a life for me!
