1	CLASSICAL BUT INNOVATIVE PSY-TRANCE	WITH HIS NEW ALBUM D.YOUNG(CHI-AD) PUT HIMSELF INTO THE WORLD'S BEST PSY-TRANCE PRODUCERS."ANNO DOMINI" BECAME ONE OF MY BEST CD'S FOR 1999.TRACKS LIKE "THE FLAME OF ETERNAL LIFE","MOONART","SHADOW SPIRIT","REDIVIDER" TRAVELLED ME INTO GREAT THOUGHTS.I BELIEVE THAT CHI-AD IS THE GROUP WHICH REACHED TOO CLOSE TO THE WONDERFULL FEELING OF THE LEGENDARY "TRANSWAVE".I SUGGEST THIS ALBUM TO EVERYONE WHO WANTS A CLASSIC CD IN HIS CD COLLECTION.	positive
1	Near the Beginning of Jazz	My dad had an old vinyl E.P. of Louis' Hot Five, and those wonderful 4 songs are on this set.I'm very happy with the sound (considering the primitive state of recording in the mid/late 1920s) and very happy with the information in the booklet (although most of the songs' composers aren't mentioned).Such an education, to see the beginnings of Jump & Swing and even scat vocals. I think Louis was just as good a singer as he was a cornet & trumpet player.Amazing to hear how the rhythm went up a big notch with the arrival of Lonnie Johnson and Earl Hines.Yeah, if you wanna hear the beginnings of Jazz (and how cool it was even back then), then this a great education and musical delight.	positive
1	Glass teapot	Very nice packaging. The glass teapot is tea for one with flowers provided. Made a nice gift at Christmas.	positive
1	Kelp was just what I expected	This Swanson's kelp is a good product. It got here in good time and was as expected at a good price.	positive
1	beautiful	A great representation of race relations in america (in the revolutionary '60's as well as representative of today), man's relation to woman, and the irony and tension that is comes package in. For no other reason, the mythology and theological references are delightfully handled. Sadly, this work is one of the most underrated and underread works of the 20th century.	positive
0	Disappointing	Big fan of Todd Duncan.....Was not impressed with book.....clearly some of his earlier work where he has fully deveoped his writing voice and style.	negative
1	If you're a naval history buff this is a MUST READ!	I am a Navy officer and I have read a tremendous amount about the battle of Midway. I thought this book was SPECTACULAR because I learned a lot of new insights! First, the authors do a great job convincingly overturning some myths about the battle. Second, in the process of telling the story they explain some details of Japanese tactics and procedures (particularly flight deck procedures and air wing operations) that were (a) significantly different from USN procedures and (b) had an impact on the battle's outcome.Be forewarned - this is a somewhat technical book and is probably best read if you already are familiar with the battle.I thought this was an exceptionally well researched book that brought new insights into this important battle.	positive
0	Badly Needs Updating	As and introduction to technical analysis techniques and their application, this book is satisfactory. Unfortunately, it was written pre-internet and pre-laser printer (mid/late 80's). The example charts are a bit ragged - they look like they were printed on an old dot matrix printer - and they aren't especially clear. And much of the book is dedicated to step-by-step proceedures for doing the calculations - not terribly useful information when all this analysis is now available for free via the internet.Given the price, I would recommend more recent books by Martin Pring or the updated classic by John Murphy. The practice of technical analysis has changed dramatically since Eng authored his book.	negative
1	Good looking boot, hopefully performs as touted!	So far, I haven't put too many miles on this Keen Targhee II Mid, but I do love the look of it. It didn't have the best feel when I put the boot on, but throughout the first day it seemed to meld to my foot. I am satisfied with the purchase, and hope that the boot will be durable and comfortable for the long term.	positive
1	Better than a therapist for my 2 year old.	This video was instrumental in getting my two year old to talk. She was born four months early and started speech therapy when she turned two. She was in therapy four months before I bought the video. Within three days of watching the video she was repeating 90% of the words. She also memorized the order of events and would make the sounds early in anticipation. Her speech therapist was floored. She said her first two words together "on top" within three days of listening to this video. I saw faster results from this video than four months of therapy twice a week. I am grateful for this fun video. She is almost three now and still loves to watch it.	positive
0	Crummy.	Broke when it fell off of the counter. Just shattered. Pretty silly item anyway. You don't need one of these and you don't need a sterilizer. Stick to Momma's methods.	negative
1	Doesn't reconize the drivers for my computer	It do not recognize the drivers but it still works! It nothing much i could say the my little brother destroy the original cable and i needed an replacement cable fast. Thank you amazon.	positive
0	Tapestry	I didn't realize that "Import" meant that the CD would not be an original but a re-recorded CD. Am not happy and have not decided whether I will bother to return the CD or not.	negative
0	wheres the songs that made them great?	very lame concert, nothing from there catalog that made them what they aretoday. very disappointing, if all goes wrong, is the perfect title, i love the PUMPKINS, but this is a dvd i will be "SMASHING".more acoustic than electric, too many new weak tracks.felt sorry for the crowd, they looked bored and confused many times during the concert, my review will probably upset many fans,for which im sorry, but i refuse to kiss corgans behind, like many already have on this dvd. the track list just plain sucks!wont waste my time on the documentary, like i did driving to the store to buy this....	negative
0	Not Season 3	This was a bad buy. It isn't season 3. It is a combination of season 2 and 3 and the episodes aren't in order.	negative
0	Terrible from first try	I was excited for this new player for basic use. I am not happy with how often it skips. I have ice issues from day one. Should have spent more money on a nicer player.	negative
1	I LOVE FRIENDS!	It's so sad that Friends is now off the air. But I loved this show and still watch reruns. I too own all the Friends episode and it's definately worth the 30 dollars if you preorder from amazon. I love this show and this season was by far one of the better ones. Oh, baby Emma. LOL, that was great and Chandler in a bunny costume. I would totally spend that money on something I know I will have for a long time. Friends is a classic and will probably be in reruns for years to come.	positive
0	Terrible!	This is a total waste of money! Very poorly made, the holes didn't even line up where they were suppose to be. I couldn't keep the shelves from falling off. Very frustrating, plus the shipping costs nearly as much as the product. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!	negative
0	Three of six have broken with little use	I am surprised that a Stanley Product would be made so cheaply.The black locking lever on the bottom has a very weak hinge point, and breaks with very little use.I have thrown away (recycled) four of these so far. I used the last one (brand new) for less than two weeks.I think I am going to start buying my products from local stores.Returns on Amazon are next to impossible, and a waste of time!	negative
1	Works as described	Good price, seems to be good quality. I have had them hooked up for about a month and no problems.	positive
0	Dude	I think I hated it moreso because it was a psychology book. so not my favorite subject. but, if you like psychology and understanding the mind, by all means, get this!	negative
0	Wristband broke in the first week.	The wristband broke the first week I wore the watch. I have had 2 of these watches in the last 20 years and both performed very well. Hopefully I can return it for a new one....	negative
0	Extremly desapointing!!	I first read "Kane & Abel" also by J. Archer, this one book was so good that even though I know that second parts are not as good as first parts I wanted to read it.This turn out to be an incredibly disapointing book, so much that I had to make a huge effort to keep reading and dont put the book on the trash.More than half of the book only repeats what we already knew from "Kane & Abel", and the rest was just the worst plot ever.How can someone writte so well first and then just be the worst writter ever?I just regret to have buy this book in the first place.	negative
1	A True Romance - One of Garwood's Best	I absolutely loved this book and could not put it down. The heroine - Gillian - was full of courage and didn't back down when faced with problems. Laird Buchanen - the hero - is all man - but you can feel how much he cares for Gillian. At the same time - there are 3 or 4 other storylines taking place that culminate in the resolution of Gillian's main problem - will she get to see her sister? does she find the treasure? how will she get Alec to his home after he is kidnapped? who is the traitor to the Sinclairs? and more! I read this book in 2 sittings - and it left me feeling happy!	positive
1	Must have upgrade!	The Seige Pack is a must have upgrade. It not only gives you additional maps and allows you to design your own battles, it also gives a significant upgrade to the AI in the game. The only thing it lacks is a map editor.	positive
1	Greate	As vegiterian I always belived natural food is way to go, but i always excused my self being vegiterian in us means eating fries and nachos out side ... This changed my prespective. I stopped my self from buying jucer just yet but using my blender to do the job. It is going great for 4 days I am not on 100% juce but 95% with few (5 piece) chips or some salted sproutsalong to stop salt carving. I feel little tired and swetty often but I am sure it will get better in few days.	positive
1	Excellent Introductory Book on B2B	If you are new in B2B world and looking for demystification of terms used in this field, this is an ideal book. The best part about this book is simple and effective langauge that makes this book very easy to read and understand.Another good aspect is relevant examples and pointers that are provided with each category (trading model, business model, ownership model).Using those examples I could visit the web sites and could understand what exactly a model means.I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning about this domain. This book is not about technologies that are used for building B2B exchanges. So do not expect details of how J2EE or XML can be used to build B2B exchange.	positive
0	Do not order this item if you want what is described	They shipped the Phosphorescent version of this compass even though they list the Tritum version here and will keep your shipping charges and make you pay the return freight. The vendor has been notified several weeks ago and has not corrected the error. Avoid this item and find a better vendor.	negative
0	Poor quality, but fun otherwise	My daughter received this toy and was putting the shirt on the boy doll for the first time when the doll broke apart into many pieces. She wasn't doing anything rough, but it just came apart. She's enjoying the rest of the set, but is disappointed with how quickly it breaks.	negative
0	Nice idea, shame about the build quality	The ergonomic design of this mouse has certainly helped my RSI. However, the APPALLING build quality let things down as it broke within just a few months. Considering the high price the quality of the construction is just a bad joke. I am now looking elsewhere for a more robust mouse using the vertical grip design...	negative
0	Bill Maher has D'Souza's number--Coward	From Salon.ComSALON: You only made your comments [about the courage of the 9/11 hijackers] as a response to one of your guests, conservative author Dinesh D'Souza, who was the first to say that he disagreed with President Bush's assertion that the 9/11 hijackers were cowards, and went so far as to call them "warriors." Why do you think D'Souza escaped criticism?MAHER: That is a question I have been asking. Because I like Dinesh but boy, he took a cab after that. I never heard from him. He never stuck his head up, and he'd been a guest on our show many times. Lots of people came to my defense -- people you never would have thought, like Rush Limbaugh. But Dinesh stayed way under the radar. He is not a warrior.	negative
0	Just one "good" song....	This album is centered around just the one song, "You're Beautiful". That song, while lyrically confusing, is musically good, and entertaining. To be sure, Blunt's unusual singing voice is at times a breath of fresh air compared to other "singers" who just shout...but it is also his downfall. The whole album is sappy. "High" is only an "ok" song and "goodbye my lover" just oozes with sap....and it's getting pretty thick. If you're into that sort of stuff, then this is a good album. But be prepared to not feel much happiness in this album. I don't know what did it....Blunt is a former British military officer, but his music style is too wussy. Key point: while you may have a "beautiful" singing voice, as some say, your song content doesn't have to be as effeminate. But the album altogether isn't horrible...and may be a welcome change of pace.	negative
1	Performed well	To be honest, the trimmer performed better than I anticipated. It did just about everything it purported to do.	positive
0	Router gone bad after 4 months	The router seemed to work fine in the beginning but then I upgraded the firmware to the latest version 5.02 and the router has now gone bad. I have much lost time trying to resolve this and now have to pay shipping fees to send out the bad router for RMA. This does not seem fair since the router is only 4 months old. I will be very wary of Netgear products in the future.	negative
0	There should be a law...	Against rewriting the same book and repackaging it with a new title. The guys are hacks who keep spewing the same think positive message only they've coupled it with new age mumbo jumbo. Cmon Ron, you sell tea, it ain't some surreal experience. If you read enough reviews about his books you'll find out that his students are required to reveiew all of his books and give good ratings...how else could this repackaged garbage keep getting 5 stars?	negative
0	This is not a review, this is a warning	There are 2 interesting things in this book:1. The cover, shamelessly ripped off by the Simmons' Hyperion artist.2. The premise of a planet civilization based around games, something worked out flawlessly in Banks' Player of Games.However, the cover will only take you as far as page 1 and the games at around page 20. Because, then Harrison does a "Deathworld", unfortunately by orders of magnitude less interesting than the original Deathworld (which was not ground breaking SF to start with). End of warning and zero stars.	negative
1	Bali Live it up Seamless underwire bra	Dont like the bra's that have replaced these in the stores. These bras give better support, the straps don't cut into my shoulders, and the cups fit much better.	positive
0	Blu-ray, Not Worth the Cost	I'm not going to go into the plot of FLCL, other sites and reviewers have that covered, but here is the deal, Funimation will yet again release another upscaled piece of garbage.The video is grainy, lines are blurry in parts and pixelated in others, partly interlaced, distinctive gradient banding, it windowed (black bars on all sides; caused by 16:10 screens, not present in 16:9 ones) so the video isn't even 1080 by 4x3 standards, etc. See my comments on page 3 for screenshots, as well as the above image section.This honestly is not worth your time or money, especially if you own the DVDs already. You will get the same quality playback on your Blu-ray player with the DVDs as you would this, as most all Blu-ray players upscale DVD anyways. Buy the DVDs or don't buy it at all.This is being return the very next day as it is pure garbage. I really wish Funimation had their licences pulled for making these terrible releases.	negative
1	This book reviews the way we all should act, like Robert.	This book reviews over the values of life from a boy's point of view. A boy named Robert recieves a pig, and even though the pig cannot think for itself, the pig teaches Robert how to bcome a man. The pig eventually dies, but Robert has learned a great thing that will help him throughout life.	positive
1	Brad Pitt YUM YUM	IF DEATH WAS GOING TO TAKE SOMEONE I KNEW I WOULD WANT THEM TO LOOK JUST LIKE JOE BLACK,HE WAS SO GENTLE TO ALLISON, THE LOVE SEEN WAS SO INNOCENT I HAD TO STOP MYSELF FROM CRYING. WHEN THEY MEET IN THE COFFEE SHOP FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THEY WERE LEAVING AND LOOKING BACK AT EACH OTHER AND THEY KEPT MISSING EACH OTHERS GLANCES AND THEN THE TRUCK- OOPS ALMOST GAVE IT AWAY-	positive
0	Josh Groban's "Greek" is disappointing	I don't know if I'll keep my "Live at the Greek" DVD yet, but I'm close to returning mine too. It just isn't a fitting second concert for the young man with the gorgeous voice. Duh--we know it's LIVE. Another DUH---we know it's OUTDOORS. The producers knew that too!! What's aggravating is that they decided to record Josh Groban at the Greek knowing his performance could be affected. What's unforgivable is that they released it knowing Groban's performance was less than good. The fact that most of the songs are just repeated here from previous recordings makes it less desirable. The fact that Josh sounds so poor makes it tragic.	negative
0	acurate and complete but it will seriousely put you to sleep	I read part of chapter 1 and didnt read any more.. extremely dull. Good for reference,not for reading	negative
0	It crashes my PC and no support from Roxio	The software crashes my PC. I have downloaded newest video card driver and installed Roxio's update patch. Still has the same problem. I tried to get tech support on their web site. They said my support ID# came with package is invalid. E-mailed their customer service, it has been two week did not receive any response.	negative
1	The Ezekiel Option	This was a truly excellent book. Dispite my very busy schedule, I read it in less than a week...I could hardly put it down. While the story was fictional, it was predicated on many historical facts and excerpts from well-know authors. Joel Rosenberg succeeded in presenting a very realistic prediction of future events based on these facts and on Biblical and other prophecies that have already occurred. The story was quite intriguing, well-written, and thought-provoking. I highly recommend this book.After reading it, I purchased the unabridged audio tapes of The Ezekiel Option so that my husband and I could listen to it as we traveled. My husband also thoroughly enjoyed Joel's book.	positive
0	Not for the financially astute	While there are some interesting aspects to this book, it really only makes sense for the financially challenged reader. If you already have and follow a budget, save monthly, live well within your means, know what insurance you need and don't need, and invest for the long term in diversified and low cost index funds then you won't get much from this book. The personal finance portion is little more than Personal Finance 101. I have no doubt the book would be useful for people who are struggling to earn, save and invest but not for those with even a modest level of personal finance acumen.	negative
1	Great rake for hair mats in Labradoodle	This rake worked great in getting out the many fur mats in our Labradoodle.Would recommend it.	positive
1	Excellent CD!!!	Wow ... This is an Excellent CD! I can not believe that there is something like this being done! I have been a performing artist for nearly 20 years and I am completely amazed that someone made a tribute CD to Rush (of all people) in this format! I am a 1st violinist in the Symphony and I am secretly a Rush fan, also .... and to my amazement I find this CD, buy it and it is simply astonishing. Then I find out that there's string tributes to just about everyone. I'm here to let you know that this CD is fantastic and is a masterpiece that you will enjoy forever. I am also here to pick up about 10 more string tribute CDs and a couple more 2112s for gifts.	positive
1	It's Different--and fun!	I got this book because I need to get in better shape for my Martial Arts class (IMHO Martial Arts and dance have a lot in common), and I love it. The exercises are intense but not necessarily strenuous, and they seem to have a certain meditative quality to them. Hey--if Ballet worked for NFL Hall of Famer Lynn Swan(P.S. There's a workout for Football in this book), why can't it work for me!	positive
0	Speak review	SpeakLaurie Halse AndersonReviewed by: Alex RohrLaurie Halse Anderson's book Speak is not a very good book. I would not recommend it to anyone who doesn't like to read female driven novels. This book was not at all geared towards guys and therefore hard for me to relate too.The story is about a girl who is an outcast from the very start of her freshman year at high school. She is an outcast as result of something that occurred during the summer right before school started. It is a relatively accurate view of teenage life but it was not the kind of book I enjoy. She is a very unhappy girl who speaks very little. This was depressing because Melinda, the main character, was always sad and alone. If she had sought help for her problem, her life would have been a lot easier.	negative
1	andy gibb:behind the music	andy gibb had three #1 hits in the late '70s. those hits were i just want to be your everything,(love is) thicker than water, and shadow dancing. his other hits were an everlasting love,(our love) don;t throw it all away,desire,i can't help it (with olivia newton-john),and after dark. all of those songs are on this album. there is also an unreleased song called man on fire,that you sould hear. ed wilson	positive
1	Love this movie	The comedic absurdity of Monty Python, Cheech & Chong, and Mel Brooks all in one? Winner.	positive
0	New keepcase edition is poorer....	Warner issued this way back in 2002 with a better cover and in the old 'snapper' case but what was excellent was that that edition was in the original 2.35:1 ratio as opposed to this 1.77 to 1 ratio. The picture quality of the older edition is better and as intended to be views by Nicholas Meyer, the director. One can still pick up the older edition here at Amazon but not for long...Time After Time	negative
0	unfavorable	About 4 mo.s ago upon receiving the T4 from this vendor (sword demon), I noticed the item had been used. I didn't mind so long as the flashlight worked and continued to work for a long time. A week ago I began to have problems with getting it to charge. Now it will not charge at all. I've tried a new charger and a new battery without any improvements. I have tried contacting vendor, and in five days I have not gotten a reply. I will now try to get some service from the manufacturer.	negative
0	great for about 6 weeks..then dead	As the tittle suggests this product worked great for about 6 weeks but then the screen just faded out to nothing pretty much over night. I'm going to see about warranty replacement but we'll see how that goes.	negative
1	So far So good!!	Good company.They delivered on time.I tested a patch of this oil.It made my hair really soft and shiny.Cant wait to give another update!	positive
0	hmm...	Well, it looks as if I'm in the minority here but I have to say that I didn't think this book was that great. It was very predictable and I never found myself really caring much about the characters.The references to Silence of the Lambs made me laugh once I had finished the book. Starling's characters come nowhere near the complexity of those in the Harris novels. I do agree however that it follows Seven very closely.The one good thing I have to say is that the book is a quick read and easy to follow.	negative
1	Understanding Bible Geography	Then and Now Bible Maps is an excellent resource for helping put Bible locations in perspective / make them come alive for the Bible reader. Even though I am not "tuned in" to geography, this book shows me where Old Testament and New Testament events occurred, what the places were named years ago, and what the places are now named. A rather short book of 16 actual map pages (with additional information), this book does help the Bible reader gain a better understanding of the world in Biblical times as well as aid in understanding how those long-ago events and places relate to Bible prophecy and what is going on in our world now. I purchased this book along with Rose Book of Bible Charts, Maps, and Time Lines. I recommend both books. In fact, I have purchased several more copies of each book to give as gifts!	positive
1	this is the most powerful tool that's out there.	This audio book is the best resource for anyone who has had the experience of loosing an animal friend. Teresa heart was poured into this work which makes it even more powerful.	positive
1	Wonderful story well written	In addition to telling a wonderful story, this author is able to create the sense of a desperate and alien world for the reader that makes the tale even more "chilling." The writing is clear and unembroidered, yet still draws striking portraits of the men and their environment. I was unfamiliar with the story so read eagerly to find out how it ended, and was amazed at the final, seemingly impossible outcome.I recommend this book for a suspenful story well told.	positive
0	Definitely Manufacturing Issue with the disk	I've gone through two DVD's already of the 2 sided release of this movie and both DVD's start skipping around chapter 15. Don't buy this DVD until they come out with a fixed release.	negative
1	Manduka Travel Mat	I have been a yoga student for 8 years and over time have used several different mats; nike, lululemon etc..A month ago my yoga teacher suggested I buy a manduka travel-light mat for a firmer support under my feet; ILOVE IT! It is light and easy to carry and most importantly my balance has improved. It is firm but very comfortable! You will not be disappointed.	positive
1	Excellent buy	Connected easily and worked in original XBOX. Definate improvement in quality from plain RCA cables	positive
1	Just what I ordered	The disposable liners were just what I needed. Our local pet store doesn't carry the product anymore and with free shipping, they were cheaper with Amazon anyway! I did expect them all in one box, but received several to my surprise and shock at a waste of shipping resources.	positive
0	This has to be a joke.	Being a published writer myself, I consider myself by far most a avid reader. I'll read whatever I can get my hands on, but this book left something less to be desired, Who edited this book? I had to read and reread passages when all that was missing was a comma or something fundamental as that. My advise to those who hasn't read this book--save your money.	negative
1	Good for part 2 in a trilogy	This second book is all about transition, they move on to the place where the battles will happen. The second romance is believable but not as anticipated and unpredictable as the third will be. Moira and Cian should prove an interesting couple. The last book should be fantastic - final battle, resolution and highly unlikely romance.	positive
1	I am haunted my Mr. McLean	Having originally read A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT years before Redford's film or the recent hipness of flyfishing, I find myself still drawn to Mr. McLean's haunting and rich story of love, loss, and acceptance of the realities of life. It is not a "book about flyfishing", but rather uses fishing as framework for defining and illuminating the passage of time and the connectedness he shares with his world and those he knew and loved. One does not need to know anything of fishing to appreciate this monumental work. From the oft quoted opening lines..."In our family..." to the final paragraph, which, by the way after several readings still makes me cry deeply, I find this book to be filled with joy, pain, loss, love, and most importantly art, which never comes easily. Get beyond the fishing thing and experience the immense depth of this one man's life.	positive
1	Really good product	I got the petmate drinking fountain because my kitten wouldn't drink water that wasnt moving, She now drinks more water. I like the fact that the fountain is silent. the only time I hear anything is if I let it run to low of water and the pump is sucking air. I eventually want to get the one that you can hook up a water supply to it and so I wont have to worry about filling it. But over all I am very happy with it and glad I got it for my little baby kitty.	positive
0	Terrible	Do not buy this box. The first one arrived damage and the replacement was damaged as well. Amazon stated the box is more problematic than thought and can't send a third to replace it. Great! I waited for three weeks and still don't have a box. I will go to the grocery store and get a cardboard box for free!	negative
0	Not at all what I thought it would be	This book is good if you you just want to learn about the service of a concierge, but gives no detail on the important facts you need to learn about the career in starting your own concierge business.	negative
0	don't waste your money	We bought these traps to catch some stray cats and transport them to a rescue organization. The first problem occurred when we tried to set them- they would NOT set. Every time we tried the hook came loose when we let go of the door. A little fiddling with pliers took care of that- the hook stayed put and the trap sprung as expected when tested. We put the trap out and it broke the first time a cat sprung it. The entire metal arm on the outside of the cage was bent out of shape and no amount of repair attempts could fix it. We weren't able to use the trap a second time. Big waste of money.	negative
0	This is TAPE - isn't it supposed to be sticky?	I don't know what is going on with this packaging tape, but it isn't sticky! I have gone through two rolls wrapping just a few packages because the tape doesn't stick to anything except itself. I don't know what the problem here is, but definitely DO NOT buy this product. I thought it was a fluke, but this is the second time this has happened to me ordering this product!	negative
0	Jessica - 29	I have normal skin and I was in search of a great daily moisturizer when I purchased this product. This cream felt very sticky on my skin and also had a strange, kind of bitter smell. It did moisturize well, though. I ended up exchanging this for the Cetaphil cream, which I love!!	negative
1	OUTSTANDING PAINT FOR MY PROJECT	Tried this paint with a Johnson outboard motor that I was restoring along with a Cajun Special boat.Painted the boat with the Black hammered paint using a gravity fed paint sprayer. Carpeted the boat with red and black fleck indoor/outdoor carpet and when it came time to do the motor, the bottom portion was the black hammered and the top was the red hammered. Did the same with the trolling motor and I have gotten so many compliments on the paint. Bought several cans of the red from Amazon as it was rather difficult to find. Anyone who is looking for a textured look in a red paint should try this. Makes a very nice finish to older material that has character marks and needs a paint that will hide some of it but leave a finish that sets the character marks off. Love it and will use it on other projects in the future.	positive
1	Beautiful trike, easy to ride for a variety of ages	I bought this for our 17-month-old daughter for Christmas. She's just starting to ride it and get the hang of it. In another couple of months, it'll fit perfectly and she'll be tearing around the house. My 4-year-old son, who, at over three feet tall, is a tad on the long side for it, also enjoys it.I was really looking for a non-plastic ride-on without pedals that would be easy to maneuver in the house and wouldn't be an eyesore. This is it; it's beautiful!I put it together in 45 minutes on Christmas Eve with a screwdriver and the instructions. No problem.My daughter loves the bell!	positive
1	Very interesting, and just overall EXCELLENT!!	Even though i stopped listening to country music about 5 years ago, i have to admit, that Garth was one artist that i could never get tired of. Now with this "Chris Gaines" album, it is great to experience the Rock side of Mr.Brooks. This CD is a very novel idea, and definitely a treat to listen to. It's just too bad that Garth won't stick with this new rock/pop sound, because i totally feel that GARTH BROOKS IS WAY TOO GOOD FOR COUNTRY MUSIC. Of course, the country stuff he is known for IS excellent, and that's just about the only country music i can stand. So, if you'd like to try this album, go ahead----and i'm sure you'll be glad you did.	positive
0	Disappointing	This is the first Sue Miller book I have read and not sure if I'll try any more of her other books. When one gets used to literary geniuses like Jodi Picoult and Chris Bohjalian, Sue Miller's writing style is a let down and leaves a lot of room for improvement. She does not achieve a smooth clear cut narration of each character. One moment you think she is referring to one character only to realize the next line she is already referring to another. There are parts when her style of writing almost reminded me of elementary beginner books, ex. Eva did this, Daisy did that, Eva said this, Daisy thought that...And what's with those frequent bold-faced words? I don't get it. I skipped through a lot of pages as it was getting boring and I hate not finishing a book once I've start reading it.	negative
0	What a terrible first impression!	This was my first Steel book and it will definitely be my last. Steel does not pique the reader's interest one iota...she merely drags you along for a rather unenjoyable and uninteresting ride. This book was incredibly simple minded and predictable. It lacked a flair for detail that I believe a best selling novel should have. Very slow and sloppy. Don't waste your money.	negative
1	A lot for the price!	This book is just as packed full of information as the more expensive books. This is a great book for anyone who processes their own meat or who is wanting to learn how. However, there are some techniques in this book I don't completely agree with. Still, all in all it gets the job done.	positive
0	DVD sound for blu-ray??	I was disappointed when I realized this music title has no lossless audio track. Dolby digital only for a music blu-ray?? It's a big joke. It's like SD sound with HD vision. The UK version has DTS-HDMA 5.1 then why not this one?? I liked the film version of the opera featuring Netrebko and Villazon but the weak sound made the appreciation experience tasteless. I'll never buy Kulture items until they figure out what HD sound is.	negative
0	Really Three Views	As other reviews have noted, the main disappointment here is that this book summarily dismisses historicism, which is a mainstay on any scholarly list of the four systems of interpretation.Although it is true that historicism is no longer a popular view, it deserves full treatment for three reasons. First, historicism was the predominant protestant view for three or more centuries and should be include for completeness. Second, historicist are producing many books in response to the futurism of "Left Behind", making readers curious to know how these views fit in. Finally, it is not inconceivable that the ultimate truth will include some elements from each of the four camps, so one should be well-versed in all four views.I certainly hope that the next version includes historicism, as well as the counter-point format.	negative
1	not just for allergy sufferers!	Who knew pollen could do such devastating damage? This is a uniquely useful and truthful guide to a gigantic environmental problem we are all faced with--the unwitting pollution of our landscape via planting the "wrong" sex trees and plants.

0	poor	For a few days after I bought this CD, I could have fun because I had no knowledge on Portuguese. You can memorize little amount of basic words for sure. But as I progress, I realized that This 2 CD-ROM set lacked the most significant thing in learning a new language. It does not provide any grammar nor greeting frase such as "How are you?" and "I'm fine"Compared to the 1st CD, the 2nd CD was way too hard. There are so many words that had not been mentioned in the 1st CD. You'll never understand the 2nd CD even when you perfectly mastered the 1st CD. I'm studying Portuguese using other software and books. It has been a month, but I still can't understand the 2nd CD.	negative
1	Jimi Hendrix Needs Revival	This past year we have brought back on to the scene several musicians from different time periods: Elvis, Nirvana[Kurt Cobain], The Ramones[Joey Ramone], Beatles[Lennon]; all reviving their influences on music for the next generation, or at least giving notice of their importance. Where is Jimi Hendrix in this? He would turn 60 years old this coming November, 2002, and nobody is tributing him. Jimi Hendrix is now considered one of the best of Classic Rock; though, in his time his music's timelessness was lost in the image of drug-use that typified experimental music, and his death by O.D. wrecked the image of the masterpiece work he created.Let us not remember Hendrix for drugs or the myths that the music was written or performed while stoned, but for the great talent. This album is a masterful work and is probably his best complete work. Its age does not mean that it will be unlistenable; in fact, now--through remastering technology--his music sounds better than ever!	positive

1	Well written, cogently argued old-earth presentation	Hayward argues that the case for a very old earth is overwhelming, but the case for the evolution of species is weak and unproven. He attempts to quote evolutionists in context, which has not always been the case. He presents a history of Christian thinking on science and the Bible, and shows that there were many prominent scientists who were Christians and believed the above 2 theses prior to the 1950s. Hayward argues that the Creation Science movement is not staffed by scientists recognised as experts in the fields in which they do battle with the scientific world.The book is well worth reading, whatever your convictions about the creation-evolution debate. It is one of the very best books available on the subject.	positive
1	On with the show!!	Just the controversial nature alone that this CD has always produced should be enough to entice a collector to listen to this body of work. It is clear from track 1 that the Stones are attempting to produce music that they are not comfortable with. But that is precisely the genius of this CD: they did it and, given the competition at that time, they did it extremely well!! It is indeed unfortunate that the events following this CD's release caused them to abandon further experimentation into psychedelia; for if this CD is any indication, they would certainly have become masters in this genre in very short order.	positive

1	A delightful read for middle-grade kids	School Days Daze is a novel for young adults, narrated from the perspective of a twenty-two year old young man as he remembers his days at Rootstown. Packed with joy, challenges, and wacky adventures such as the great French Fry Feud, School Days Daze is a delightful read for middle-grade kids, and also lends itself well to being read aloud for story time. Catchy poems intersperse the upbeat vignette stories in this warmly recommended novel. "Dodge Ball War": Curls in her hair / A pretty dress / Bows, blue and red / Grab the ball / Fling it through the air / And knock her on the head // It's picture day / Shirts and shoes and ties / Running in circles / Getting all sweaty / Avoiding where the ball flies // We should stay neat / All prim and proper / But that would be a bore. / Hey this is recess / It's important business / And it's all part of dodge ball war!	positive
1	RV brake controller	I purchased a new suv to tow my camper and when I called the dealer, they told me it would cost me $200.00 to have a controller installed. That was for a bottom of the line controller. I went on Amazon and found the Hayes Energize III for only $57 and the installation was a piece of cake. Not only did I get a much better quality controller, I saved a lot of money. I have already towed the trailer over 700 miles and the braking is so smooth, I can't even feel the trailer behind me.	positive
1	Does the Job	This is simply a standard curved section of Lionel track most of us remember from our childhoods. It is "O-gauge" which is the standard Lionel gauge. The 27 means that used with other O-27 curved sections, it could make a circle 27" in diameter, or part of an oval track 27" wide. That's actually a fairly tight curve---many longer Lionel cars are meant to be used on broader curves.I use the curved track sections for displaying rare O-gauge cars in a 12" radius corner shelving unit. Normally I use a full track and a half track6-65014 1/2 Curved single piece of track O27to fill the space. The reason for using the track, in addition to the fact that it adds to the display, is that it prevents my expensive antique cars from rolling or sliding off the shelf. For extra safety I attach the cars to the tracks with wire-ties on the back side where the wire-ties are not visible.	positive
1	Good Season, Not Great	Star Trek: Voyager, Season One is so-so. It has its good spots and has its bad spots. Like other reviews have already stated, it struggles with its consistency in some places, much like Star Trek: The Next Generation did in its first season. Good series overall though.I probably would have given this 3 stars, but it appears the price has FINALLY been lowered, down to a level comparable to the other Star Trek series, and that itself makes it worthwhile.	positive

1	Soothing & safe on sensitive skin	I've tried many different lotions & creams to end up with dry, irritated (sensitive) skin. Nothing seemed to work. At first the price of this made me now want to try it, because if it didn't work I was out that money & left with a bottle to pawn off on family.After just one use (after showering) I put this on & my skin didn't feel tight, dry, itchy or irritated. My hands are always cracking & itchy because of washing so much during the day & now I can go a couple washes without adding more lotion.My skin is really soft, not oily or greasy & I will continue to use this lotion for how ever long I can afford the luxury of buying it. I'd recommend to anyone with sensitive, dry or problem skin.	positive
0	Ye though I Walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Bad Movies	This movie came on TV the other day and is one of the most atrociously bad movies I have ever seen. I admit I only made it to the part where he signs with the women's team, but I am not a glutton for punishment so I had to stop there. First off, the plot is stupid enough, but I let that go. Then the acting starts to undo the movie. The dude is so over the top it just makes me cringe. Not even Kobe Bryant is that arrogant and not even Ron Artest is that stupid. So the whole set up to him getting kicked out/suspended from the league is just ridiculous. Then you have to watch the overactor with the bad script in drag. I don't even watch the WNBA, why would I want to watch this corny verion? This movie should be banned and all copies destroyed. I give it one star because I am unable to give negative stars.	negative
0	Too buggy	This router is easy to set up and easy to use. The wireless networking is great, especially with a laptop. However, the router is a little two buggy.I've had this router for about a year, and it seems that the device needs to be reset about once a week. The network slows down, particular websites will fail to load, and eventually, the entire wireless network shuts down.When it works, the device is fantastic, but it is too high maintenance.	negative
0	Disappointed	As a long time No Doubt and Gwen Stafani fan, I have to say I was disappointed at the end of this album. The fire, the excitment, the desire to move to music were all gone. The first track, Wind It Up, is pretty much the only track I'll likely listen to on a regular basis.What has made Gwen impressive in the past has been her individuality, her ability to march to her own drum. I couldn't help thinking the whole time I was listening that this sounds like everyone else. I wasn't expecting to hear No Doubt, I wasn't even expecting to hear another LAMB, but I was expecting to hear something different, and it just wasn't there.And most of all, I'm disappointed that the inventful, crazy, and classy Ms. Stefani I've grown to love over the years has missed the boat on this one.	negative
1	Great Novella	It doesn't get all philosophically preachy like the later series does, but instead settles for being just a great story. But it's short, novella length. Personally I paid sixty cents for my copy at the closing of Borders, which seemed like a fair deal, so I can evaluate the work on the content without feeling cheated about overpaying (seems a theme of other reviews).The story itself revolves around a bone, representing a debt owed, featuring a 'normal' perspective character interacting with Zedd, during the conflict of the Midlands vs. Darken Rahl, pre-Sword of Truth. It's twisty and emotional, and I did enjoy it. If you like Terry Goodkind's writing around book 2-4 of "The Sword of Truth", you'll like this.	positive
1	Great Banjo Teacher	After seeing him play alongside John Hartford for a while I got this dvd and a banjo. Bob does a great job as a teacher- he looks like your goofy uncle (that shirt, those glasses!), but comes across subdued, serious and very intelligent on the subject of playing. Like all homespun tapes, the split screen instruction is really helpful. Having seen several instruction vids- I'd say this one is a peach.	positive

Near the Beginning of Jazz

My dad had an old vinyl E.P. of Louis' Hot Five, and those wonderful 4 songs are on this set.I'm very happy with the sound (considering the primitive state of recording in the mid/late 1920s) and very happy with the information in the booklet (although most of the songs' composers aren't mentioned).Such an education, to see the beginnings of Jump & Swing and even scat vocals. I think Louis was just as good a singer as he was a cornet & trumpet player.Amazing to hear how the rhythm went up a big notch with the arrival of Lonnie Johnson and Earl Hines.Yeah, if you wanna hear the beginnings of Jazz (and how cool it was even back then), then this a great education and musical delight.

If you're a naval history buff this is a MUST READ!

I am a Navy officer and I have read a tremendous amount about the battle of Midway. I thought this book was SPECTACULAR because I learned a lot of new insights! First, the authors do a great job convincingly overturning some myths about the battle. Second, in the process of telling the story they explain some details of Japanese tactics and procedures (particularly flight deck procedures and air wing operations) that were (a) significantly different from USN procedures and (b) had an impact on the battle's outcome.Be forewarned - this is a somewhat technical book and is probably best read if you already are familiar with the battle.I thought this was an exceptionally well researched book that brought new insights into this important battle.

Badly Needs Updating

As and introduction to technical analysis techniques and their application, this book is satisfactory. Unfortunately, it was written pre-internet and pre-laser printer (mid/late 80's). The example charts are a bit ragged - they look like they were printed on an old dot matrix printer - and they aren't especially clear. And much of the book is dedicated to step-by-step proceedures for doing the calculations - not terribly useful information when all this analysis is now available for free via the internet.Given the price, I would recommend more recent books by Martin Pring or the updated classic by John Murphy. The practice of technical analysis has changed dramatically since Eng authored his book.

I am satisfied with the purchase, and hope that the boot will be durable and comfortable for the long term.

Better than a therapist for my 2 year old.

This video was instrumental in getting my two year old to talk. She was born four months early and started speech therapy when she turned two. She was in therapy four months before I bought the video. Within three days of watching the video she was repeating 90% of the words. She also memorized the order of events and would make the sounds early in anticipation. Her speech therapist was floored. She said her first two words together "on top" within three days of listening to this video. I saw faster results from this video than four months of therapy twice a week. I am grateful for this fun video. She is almost three now and still loves to watch it.

I first read "Kane & Abel" also by J. Archer, this one book was so good that even though I know that second parts are not as good as first parts I wanted to read it.This turn out to be an incredibly disapointing book, so much that I had to make a huge effort to keep reading and dont put the book on the trash.More than half of the book only repeats what we already knew from "Kane & Abel", and the rest was just the worst plot ever.How can someone writte so well first and then just be the worst writter ever?I just regret to have buy this book in the first place.

I absolutely loved this book and could not put it down. The heroine - Gillian - was full of courage and didn't back down when faced with problems. Laird Buchanen - the hero - is all man - but you can feel how much he cares for Gillian. At the same time - there are 3 or 4 other storylines taking place that culminate in the resolution of Gillian's main problem - will she get to see her sister? does she find the treasure? how will she get Alec to his home after he is kidnapped? who is the traitor to the Sinclairs? and more!

Excellent Introductory Book on B2B

If you are new in B2B world and looking for demystification of terms used in this field, this is an ideal book. The best part about this book is simple and effective langauge that makes this book very easy to read and understand.Another good aspect is relevant examples and pointers that are provided with each category (trading model, business model, ownership model).Using those examples I could visit the web sites and could understand what exactly a model means.I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning about this domain. This book is not about technologies that are used for building B2B exchanges. So do not expect details of how J2EE or XML can be used to build B2B exchange.

Bill Maher has D'Souza's number--Coward

From Salon.ComSALON: You only made your comments [about the courage of the 9/11 hijackers] as a response to one of your guests, conservative author Dinesh D'Souza, who was the first to say that he disagreed with President Bush's assertion that the 9/11 hijackers were cowards, and went so far as to call them "warriors." Why do you think D'Souza escaped criticism?MAHER: That is a question I have been asking. Because I like Dinesh but boy, he took a cab after that. I never heard from him. He never stuck his head up, and he'd been a guest on our show many times. Lots of people came to my defense -- people you never would have thought, like Rush Limbaugh. But Dinesh stayed way under the radar. He is not a warrior.

Just one "good" song....

This album is centered around just the one song, "You're Beautiful". That song, while lyrically confusing, is musically good, and entertaining. To be sure, Blunt's unusual singing voice is at times a breath of fresh air compared to other "singers" who just shout...but it is also his downfall. The whole album is sappy. "High" is only an "ok" song and "goodbye my lover" just oozes with sap....and it's getting pretty thick. If you're into that sort of stuff, then this is a good album. But be prepared to not feel much happiness in this album. I don't know what did it....Blunt is a former British military officer, but his music style is too wussy. Key point: while you may have a "beautiful" singing voice, as some say, your song content doesn't have to be as effeminate. But the album altogether isn't horrible...and may be a welcome change of pace.

This is not a review, this is a warning

There are 2 interesting things in this book:1. The cover, shamelessly ripped off by the Simmons' Hyperion artist.2. The premise of a planet civilization based around games, something worked out flawlessly in Banks' Player of Games.However, the cover will only take you as far as page 1 and the games at around page 20. Because, then Harrison does a "Deathworld", unfortunately by orders of magnitude less interesting than the original Deathworld (which was not ground breaking SF to start with). End of warning and zero stars.

Blu-ray, Not Worth the Cost

I'm not going to go into the plot of FLCL, other sites and reviewers have that covered, but here is the deal, Funimation will yet again release another upscaled piece of garbage.The video is grainy, lines are blurry in parts and pixelated in others, partly interlaced, distinctive gradient banding, it windowed (black bars on all sides; caused by 16:10 screens, not present in 16:9 ones) so the video isn't even 1080 by 4x3 standards, etc. See my comments on page 3 for screenshots, as well as the above image section.This honestly is not worth your time or money, especially if you own the DVDs already. You will get the same quality playback on your Blu-ray player with the DVDs as you would this, as most all Blu-ray players upscale DVD anyways. Buy the DVDs or don't buy it at all.This is being return the very next day as it is pure garbage. I really wish Funimation had their licences pulled for making these terrible releases.

Josh Groban's "Greek" is disappointing

I don't know if I'll keep my "Live at the Greek" DVD yet, but I'm close to returning mine too. It just isn't a fitting second concert for the young man with the gorgeous voice. Duh--we know it's LIVE. Another DUH---we know it's OUTDOORS. The producers knew that too!! What's aggravating is that they decided to record Josh Groban at the Greek knowing his performance could be affected. What's unforgivable is that they released it knowing Groban's performance was less than good. The fact that most of the songs are just repeated here from previous recordings makes it less desirable. The fact that Josh sounds so poor makes it tragic.

The Ezekiel Option

This was a truly excellent book. Dispite my very busy schedule, I read it in less than a week...I could hardly put it down. While the story was fictional, it was predicated on many historical facts and excerpts from well-know authors. Joel Rosenberg succeeded in presenting a very realistic prediction of future events based on these facts and on Biblical and other prophecies that have already occurred. The story was quite intriguing, well-written, and thought-provoking. I highly recommend this book.After reading it, I purchased the unabridged audio tapes of The Ezekiel Option so that my husband and I could listen to it as we traveled. My husband also thoroughly enjoyed Joel's book.

Not for the financially astute

While there are some interesting aspects to this book, it really only makes sense for the financially challenged reader. If you already have and follow a budget, save monthly, live well within your means, know what insurance you need and don't need, and invest for the long term in diversified and low cost index funds then you won't get much from this book. The personal finance portion is little more than Personal Finance 101. I have no doubt the book would be useful for people who are struggling to earn, save and invest but not for those with even a modest level of personal finance acumen.

Excellent CD!!!

Wow ... This is an Excellent CD! I can not believe that there is something like this being done! I have been a performing artist for nearly 20 years and I am completely amazed that someone made a tribute CD to Rush (of all people) in this format! I am a 1st violinist in the Symphony and I am secretly a Rush fan, also .... and to my amazement I find this CD, buy it and it is simply astonishing. Then I find out that there's string tributes to just about everyone. I'm here to let you know that this CD is fantastic and is a masterpiece that you will enjoy forever. I am also here to pick up about 10 more string tribute CDs and a couple more 2112s for gifts.

It's Different--and fun!

I got this book because I need to get in better shape for my Martial Arts class (IMHO Martial Arts and dance have a lot in common), and I love it. The exercises are intense but not necessarily strenuous, and they seem to have a certain meditative quality to them. Hey--if Ballet worked for NFL Hall of Famer Lynn Swan(P.S. There's a workout for Football in this book), why can't it work for me!

Speak review

SpeakLaurie Halse AndersonReviewed by: Alex RohrLaurie Halse Anderson's book Speak is not a very good book. I would not recommend it to anyone who doesn't like to read female driven novels. This book was not at all geared towards guys and therefore hard for me to relate too.The story is about a girl who is an outcast from the very start of her freshman year at high school. She is an outcast as result of something that occurred during the summer right before school started. It is a relatively accurate view of teenage life but it was not the kind of book I enjoy. She is a very unhappy girl who speaks very little. This was depressing because Melinda, the main character, was always sad and alone. If she had sought help for her problem, her life would have been a lot easier.

New keepcase edition is poorer....

Warner issued this way back in 2002 with a better cover and in the old 'snapper' case but what was excellent was that that edition was in the original 2.35:1 ratio as opposed to this 1.77 to 1 ratio. The picture quality of the older edition is better and as intended to be views by Nicholas Meyer, the director. One can still pick up the older edition here at Amazon but not for long...Time After Time

hmm...

Well, it looks as if I'm in the minority here but I have to say that I didn't think this book was that great. It was very predictable and I never found myself really caring much about the characters.The references to Silence of the Lambs made me laugh once I had finished the book. Starling's characters come nowhere near the complexity of those in the Harris novels. I do agree however that it follows Seven very closely.The one good thing I have to say is that the book is a quick read and easy to follow.

Understanding Bible Geography

Then and Now Bible Maps is an excellent resource for helping put Bible locations in perspective / make them come alive for the Bible reader. Even though I am not "tuned in" to geography, this book shows me where Old Testament and New Testament events occurred, what the places were named years ago, and what the places are now named. A rather short book of 16 actual map pages (with additional information), this book does help the Bible reader gain a better understanding of the world in Biblical times as well as aid in understanding how those long-ago events and places relate to Bible prophecy and what is going on in our world now. I purchased this book along with Rose Book of Bible Charts, Maps, and Time Lines. I recommend both books. In fact, I have purchased several more copies of each book to give as gifts!

Wonderful story well written

In addition to telling a wonderful story, this author is able to create the sense of a desperate and alien world for the reader that makes the tale even more "chilling." The writing is clear and unembroidered, yet still draws striking portraits of the men and their environment. I was unfamiliar with the story so read eagerly to find out how it ended, and was amazed at the final, seemingly impossible outcome.I recommend this book for a suspenful story well told.

Being a published writer myself, I consider myself by far most a avid reader. I'll read whatever I can get my hands on, but this book left something less to be desired, Who edited this book?

Good for part 2 in a trilogy

This second book is all about transition, they move on to the place where the battles will happen. The second romance is believable but not as anticipated and unpredictable as the third will be. Moira and Cian should prove an interesting couple. The last book should be fantastic - final battle, resolution and highly unlikely romance.

I am haunted my Mr. McLean

Having originally read A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT years before Redford's film or the recent hipness of flyfishing, I find myself still drawn to Mr. McLean's haunting and rich story of love, loss, and acceptance of the realities of life. It is not a "book about flyfishing", but rather uses fishing as framework for defining and illuminating the passage of time and the connectedness he shares with his world and those he knew and loved. One does not need to know anything of fishing to appreciate this monumental work. From the oft quoted opening lines..."In our family..." to the final paragraph, which, by the way after several readings still makes me cry deeply, I find this book to be filled with joy, pain, loss, love, and most importantly art, which never comes easily. Get beyond the fishing thing and experience the immense depth of this one man's life.

don't waste your money

We bought these traps to catch some stray cats and transport them to a rescue organization. The first problem occurred when we tried to set them- they would NOT set. Every time we tried the hook came loose when we let go of the door. A little fiddling with pliers took care of that- the hook stayed put and the trap sprung as expected when tested. We put the trap out and it broke the first time a cat sprung it. The entire metal arm on the outside of the cage was bent out of shape and no amount of repair attempts could fix it. We weren't able to use the trap a second time. Big waste of money.

OUTSTANDING PAINT FOR MY PROJECT

Tried this paint with a Johnson outboard motor that I was restoring along with a Cajun Special boat.Painted the boat with the Black hammered paint using a gravity fed paint sprayer. Carpeted the boat with red and black fleck indoor/outdoor carpet and when it came time to do the motor, the bottom portion was the black hammered and the top was the red hammered. Did the same with the trolling motor and I have gotten so many compliments on the paint. Bought several cans of the red from Amazon as it was rather difficult to find. Anyone who is looking for a textured look in a red paint should try this. Makes a very nice finish to older material that has character marks and needs a paint that will hide some of it but leave a finish that sets the character marks off. Love it and will use it on other projects in the future.

Beautiful trike, easy to ride for a variety of ages

I bought this for our 17-month-old daughter for Christmas. She's just starting to ride it and get the hang of it. In another couple of months, it'll fit perfectly and she'll be tearing around the house. My 4-year-old son, who, at over three feet tall, is a tad on the long side for it, also enjoys it.I was really looking for a non-plastic ride-on without pedals that would be easy to maneuver in the house and wouldn't be an eyesore. This is it; it's beautiful!I put it together in 45 minutes on Christmas Eve with a screwdriver and the instructions. No problem.My daughter loves the bell!

Very interesting, and just overall EXCELLENT!!

Even though i stopped listening to country music about 5 years ago, i have to admit, that Garth was one artist that i could never get tired of. Now with this "Chris Gaines" album, it is great to experience the Rock side of Mr.Brooks. This CD is a very novel idea, and definitely a treat to listen to. It's just too bad that Garth won't stick with this new rock/pop sound, because i totally feel that GARTH BROOKS IS WAY TOO GOOD FOR COUNTRY MUSIC. Of course, the country stuff he is known for IS excellent, and that's just about the only country music i can stand. So, if you'd like to try this album, go ahead----and i'm sure you'll be glad you did.

Disappointing

This is the first Sue Miller book I have read and not sure if I'll try any more of her other books. When one gets used to literary geniuses like Jodi Picoult and Chris Bohjalian, Sue Miller's writing style is a let down and leaves a lot of room for improvement. She does not achieve a smooth clear cut narration of each character. One moment you think she is referring to one character only to realize the next line she is already referring to another. There are parts when her style of writing almost reminded me of elementary beginner books, ex. Eva did this, Daisy did that, Eva said this, Daisy thought that...And what's with those frequent bold-faced words? I don't get it. I skipped through a lot of pages as it was getting boring and I hate not finishing a book once I've start reading it.

This was my first Steel book and it will definitely be my last. Steel does not pique the reader's interest one iota...she merely drags you along for a rather unenjoyable and uninteresting ride.

I was disappointed when I realized this music title has no lossless audio track. Dolby digital only for a music blu-ray?? It's a big joke. It's like SD sound with HD vision.

I'll never buy Kulture items until they figure out what HD sound is.

Really Three Views

As other reviews have noted, the main disappointment here is that this book summarily dismisses historicism, which is a mainstay on any scholarly list of the four systems of interpretation.Although it is true that historicism is no longer a popular view, it deserves full treatment for three reasons. First, historicism was the predominant protestant view for three or more centuries and should be include for completeness. Second, historicist are producing many books in response to the futurism of "Left Behind", making readers curious to know how these views fit in. Finally, it is not inconceivable that the ultimate truth will include some elements from each of the four camps, so one should be well-versed in all four views.I certainly hope that the next version includes historicism, as well as the counter-point format.

For a few days after I bought this CD, I could have fun because I had no knowledge on Portuguese. You can memorize little amount of basic words for sure. But as I progress, I realized that This 2 CD-ROM set lacked the most significant thing in learning a new language. It does not provide any grammar nor greeting frase such as "How are you?" and "I'm fine"Compared to the 1st CD, the 2nd CD was way too hard. There are so many words that had not been mentioned in the 1st CD. You'll never understand the 2nd CD even when you perfectly mastered the 1st CD. I'm studying Portuguese using other software and books. It has been a month, but I still can't understand the 2nd CD.

Jimi Hendrix Needs Revival

This past year we have brought back on to the scene several musicians from different time periods: Elvis, Nirvana[Kurt Cobain], The Ramones[Joey Ramone], Beatles[Lennon]; all reviving their influences on music for the next generation, or at least giving notice of their importance. Where is Jimi Hendrix in this? He would turn 60 years old this coming November, 2002, and nobody is tributing him. Jimi Hendrix is now considered one of the best of Classic Rock; though, in his time his music's timelessness was lost in the image of drug-use that typified experimental music, and his death by O.D. wrecked the image of the masterpiece work he created.Let us not remember Hendrix for drugs or the myths that the music was written or performed while stoned, but for the great talent. This album is a masterful work and is probably his best complete work. Its age does not mean that it will be unlistenable; in fact, now--through remastering technology--his music sounds better than ever!

Well written, cogently argued old-earth presentation

Hayward argues that the case for a very old earth is overwhelming, but the case for the evolution of species is weak and unproven. He attempts to quote evolutionists in context, which has not always been the case. He presents a history of Christian thinking on science and the Bible, and shows that there were many prominent scientists who were Christians and believed the above 2 theses prior to the 1950s. Hayward argues that the Creation Science movement is not staffed by scientists recognised as experts in the fields in which they do battle with the scientific world.The book is well worth reading, whatever your convictions about the creation-evolution debate. It is one of the very best books available on the subject.

On with the show!!

Just the controversial nature alone that this CD has always produced should be enough to entice a collector to listen to this body of work. It is clear from track 1 that the Stones are attempting to produce music that they are not comfortable with. But that is precisely the genius of this CD: they did it and, given the competition at that time, they did it extremely well!! It is indeed unfortunate that the events following this CD's release caused them to abandon further experimentation into psychedelia; for if this CD is any indication, they would certainly have become masters in this genre in very short order.

School Days Daze is a novel for young adults, narrated from the perspective of a twenty-two year old young man as he remembers his days at Rootstown. Packed with joy, challenges, and wacky adventures such as the great French Fry Feud, School Days Daze is a delightful read for middle-grade kids, and also lends itself well to being read aloud for story time.

Does the Job

This is simply a standard curved section of Lionel track most of us remember from our childhoods. It is "O-gauge" which is the standard Lionel gauge. The 27 means that used with other O-27 curved sections, it could make a circle 27" in diameter, or part of an oval track 27" wide. That's actually a fairly tight curve---many longer Lionel cars are meant to be used on broader curves.I use the curved track sections for displaying rare O-gauge cars in a 12" radius corner shelving unit. Normally I use a full track and a half track6-65014 1/2 Curved single piece of track O27to fill the space. The reason for using the track, in addition to the fact that it adds to the display, is that it prevents my expensive antique cars from rolling or sliding off the shelf. For extra safety I attach the cars to the tracks with wire-ties on the back side where the wire-ties are not visible.

Soothing & safe on sensitive skin

I've tried many different lotions & creams to end up with dry, irritated (sensitive) skin. Nothing seemed to work. At first the price of this made me now want to try it, because if it didn't work I was out that money & left with a bottle to pawn off on family.After just one use (after showering) I put this on & my skin didn't feel tight, dry, itchy or irritated. My hands are always cracking & itchy because of washing so much during the day & now I can go a couple washes without adding more lotion.My skin is really soft, not oily or greasy & I will continue to use this lotion for how ever long I can afford the luxury of buying it. I'd recommend to anyone with sensitive, dry or problem skin.

Ye though I Walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Bad Movies

This movie came on TV the other day and is one of the most atrociously bad movies I have ever seen. I admit I only made it to the part where he signs with the women's team, but I am not a glutton for punishment so I had to stop there. First off, the plot is stupid enough, but I let that go. Then the acting starts to undo the movie. The dude is so over the top it just makes me cringe. Not even Kobe Bryant is that arrogant and not even Ron Artest is that stupid. So the whole set up to him getting kicked out/suspended from the league is just ridiculous. Then you have to watch the overactor with the bad script in drag. I don't even watch the WNBA, why would I want to watch this corny verion? This movie should be banned and all copies destroyed. I give it one star because I am unable to give negative stars.

As a long time No Doubt and Gwen Stafani fan, I have to say I was disappointed at the end of this album. The fire, the excitment, the desire to move to music were all gone. The first track, Wind It Up, is pretty much the only track I'll likely listen to on a regular basis.What has made Gwen impressive in the past has been her individuality, her ability to march to her own drum. I couldn't help thinking the whole time I was listening that this sounds like everyone else. I wasn't expecting to hear No Doubt, I wasn't even expecting to hear another LAMB, but I was expecting to hear something different, and it just wasn't there.And most of all, I'm disappointed that the inventful, crazy, and classy Ms. Stefani I've grown to love over the years has missed the boat on this one.

Great Novella

It doesn't get all philosophically preachy like the later series does, but instead settles for being just a great story. But it's short, novella length. Personally I paid sixty cents for my copy at the closing of Borders, which seemed like a fair deal, so I can evaluate the work on the content without feeling cheated about overpaying (seems a theme of other reviews).The story itself revolves around a bone, representing a debt owed, featuring a 'normal' perspective character interacting with Zedd, during the conflict of the Midlands vs. Darken Rahl, pre-Sword of Truth. It's twisty and emotional, and I did enjoy it. If you like Terry Goodkind's writing around book 2-4 of "The Sword of Truth", you'll like this.
