0	Not effective as a humidifier	I bought two of these humidifiers for my daughters' rooms, which are fairly small. I liked the size of this model as well as the fact that it didn't have a filter that would need replacing. I returned both of them soon after receiving them. They blew a mist of water about six inches straight up, which proceeded to fall back down, drenching the humidifier as well as whatever surface I put it on. It was not effective at increasing the humidity in the room at all. Plus, on the lowest setting it only lasted for about 6-7 hours. I wouldn't recommend this humidifier to anybody.	negative
1	Great movie	A bit confusing in the beginning. However hang in there. By the time you get to the end, you have it and it is beutiful! Very powerful and so unexpected! Acting is great. Well written. Unique plot.	positive
0	Made where?	Purchased this 8-1/2 saucer as well as the 2-1/2. Unpleasantly supprised to discover that they were made in China. The obvious swirl marks and that "made in China" stamped into the bottom of the pot was not to my liking. I feel that Amazon and Calphalon should make it clear that the product was not made in the USA. I don't need to be making any contributions to the red army.	negative
1	Killerspin 603.05 Aurora TT Net and Post	The post are heavy duty with a quality clamping system. Once you figure out the net installation process and set the tension, you can quickly remove and install it without having to make fine adjustments every time. The post and the net is exactly the quality I expected;Good Stuff .	positive
0	Well written, but...	An entire book of ONLY interview questions is just too much of a good thing, IMHO. There are several books which have a chapter on interview questions, and list only the ones which are you really likely to encounter, which I have found much more useful.	negative
0	Ramonas review	Its a really good book do everyone should read it its so supper di dooper good so read it read it and read it	negative
0	Two things about this album	First, it reminds you that both artists are darn good vocalists and should do something with their voices with consequence before they get too old (no, this isn't it). Everything here is very competent in terms of production and sound.Second, it should be a stern reminder for anyone else thinking of doing something like this to totally forget it. Remaking "Cinnamon Girl"? "Monday Monday?" Are you insane? And then trying to nearly copy them note for note (and pretty much succeeding), what's the point of that? Lots of people try things like this, even the Simple Minds of all bands, and no one has ever pulled it off. Music to play when you feel the need to throw up. Just embarrasing.	negative
0	Dried Broken Fava Beans	I was so looking forward to my dried fava beans. When I opened the box, I was so disappointed. The picture above shows nice whole fava beans with uniform color. The ones I got were all different colors with lots to discard and way too many broken ones, and I don't mean just broken in half...broken in lots of tiny pieces. I would never serve these to company unless I opened two or three bags and picked out the whole ones.The bags were packed nice and safe with plenty of bubble wrap. I can only assume they were this way when they were packed. I am very disappointed in the quality of these dried fava beans and wonder why Amazon even bothered to carry them. It is far below their usual standard of quality. You want fava beans? Skip these.	negative
1	great book	This was a required text for an online class. I have found it to be very helpful & will probably use it as a reference throughout my teaching career.	positive
1	Great book!	I received this book when I was a little girl...way back when it was written. My original copy is much loved and I wanted to continue to be able to share it with my children and grandchildren. I am so glad it is still in print.	positive
0	Ruins Disks!	Took a disk that was skipping and turned it into one that can no longer be read. Do not buy!	negative
0	Editing/Directing Ruins the action	The only reason to watch a movie of this genre is so that you can SEE the fighting scenes. The director's weak attempt to make it exciting with closeups and a shakey camera makes it impossible to see what is going on in the fighting scenes. Camera shakes, close up of face, close up of hand, close up of blood, guy on ground?!? Might as well used stop motion with dummies. Seen better fight scenes on youtube. Total waste of time.	negative
1	Great comeback!!!	I have been a KS fan since the beginning. Your latest book was great. Just do me a favor???? Next time you want to go on a tangent, " Hornet's Nest" please think about all of your fans. We want more KS. Keep up the good work.	positive
1	AMAZING Grace is a good name for this...	This Product is aptly named. I love it, I love the way the Shampoo/Bath, Body wash feels on my Hair and skin, the scent is AMAZING!The Conditioner makes my hair feels so soft and sweetly scented.And the Salt Scrub!!! Just what one needs in Cold Climates (ok so Ky is not usually this cold , but...) it sloughs off the dry spots and smoothes them out and leaves that shinny silky look all over (especially on the legs) that women like and men go Gaga for!!!	positive
1	Waiting: A journey into dreams and reality	Ha Jin has written an eloquent story of longing and the effects it has on ones own reality. This story flows with grace, providing the reader with much to think about. This would be an excellent choice for a book group as well as for the individual reader.	positive
1	Great Grill Pan	This pan is wonderful! Delicious steaks. Beautiful grill marks. Clean up is a little work but worth it.	positive
0	The Truth About THE TRUTH ABOUT MEDIUM	This book promises the extraordinary, including specific data from science experiments, but what we get are more anecdotes about how great Mr. Schwartz's experiments are. He features highlights of experiments with medium Allison DuBois, but Schwartz' bias in favor of his subject matter makes this book an epiphany of self-celebration. There is a fascinating section, The Monty Keen Experiment, and the results seem extremely remarkable -- why isn't it published in Science Magazine? Talk of "Replication and Extension Reading" is confined to Mr. Schwartz's "Lab," and we're left wondering if any of Schwartz's experimental designs or raw data are being shared with other universities. Why sacrifice scientific method for sensational tidbits? Oh, yeah! The book's release coincides exactly with the new fall TV season of MEDIUM.	negative
1	brilliant	Eclectic Irish-American musician extraordinaire makes compelling music again on this, her first studio effort since touring endlessly with Riverdance. Only drawback is that, by being signed to Sony Classical, she may not get pop crossover push she deserves; confusion can definitely ensue in minds of consumers and biz types alike: this effort is not listed in Amazon's pop offerings of hers, you have to enter the classical side to check it out.	positive
0	All aerobic	I was hoping this video would be different-it was all aerobic. I was looking for a workout tape similar to a Jackie Warner, P90X or Jullian style. This is not like that at all. If you're use to aerobics with women changing moves every 10 seconds, you'll love this.	negative
1	Like a puppet on a string, like a monkey on swing	Thanks to This TV (channel 5.3), Los Angles, who was doing a bad movie weekend, that I got to watch this movie 3 times in about as many days. And after this movie, no other movie has ever satisfied me. This has almost replaced "Paris, Texas" as one of my all-time favorite movies.It is like, Once you go Apple, you cannot go any other way. This is a great movie. If you are familiar with Disco-era Bollywood movies, you will see how many times this movie, and its song-and-dance sequences, have been copied. This is a masterpiece (this point is not open to negotiation). Everything about this movie is excellent.Thank God, we survived 1994!	positive
0	Very Disappointing	This book is a sad portrayal of stereotypical weak simple minded black women falling for a good looking cheating man.I found no Christian message in it because all of the Christian characters were liars, cheaters, fornicators, and even murderers.I was severely disappointed in this book.	negative
1	Great Potty Book	I bought this book for my daughter along with Once Upon a Potty. I personally was more drawn in by the Once Upon a Potty title, but I actually think my daughter likes this one better. I started reading both to her shortly before I was getting ready to potty train. Ihink the books helped expose her to the idea of potty training, because she immediately caught on. I would tell her that she had to go on the Potty, like Hannah and Prudence. The books are very similar in the idea, but I think this one is a little more elementary, but in that way appeals more to small children for example with the rhyming. WE still read this book even though she got the hang of going potty to reinforce the message and I think it is helping.	positive
0	Limited Visualizations and Meditations -- Not Worth the Expense	Given the number of tracks on this CD, I was looking forward to a variety of meditations and music to support them. However, most tracks have a one sentence meditation (no music!!) with very limited vizualizations for you to use. I've found many other CDs out there which provide a more comprehensive meditation and visualization experience for less money. Not an item which I would recommend spending your money on.	negative
1	Perfect unit for a family	I had never used a dehydrator before, so I didn't want to spend a fortune on a machine and I am thrilled with this one. I have had great success with all the fruit I have tried, including a cantelope and a pineapple that were slightly over-ripe. Highly recommend it!	positive
0	Ugh	Avril's music is ok but I hate this DVD. She's trying to be "gothic" or whatever and it doesn't work. It looks like she shopped at Hot Topic or something. Avril, quit being goth! You have no reason too! And you aren't gothic. Therefore, get singing lessons, and make a CD...because girl sorry you can't sing. But yeah, Avril plays the guitar so it's ok but 1 star for this goth imitation DVD.	negative
0	Worked Great	It was an absolute joy to use for the week or so that it worked. Quiet, powerful, smooth-cutting - in general did an excellent job, though I didn't ask too much of it at first. But then a week or so after unpacking it it simply didn't turn on in the morning, and a few weeks of dealing with customer service later - I got a replacement part, installed it, nothing changed - I had wasted so much time and energy that I had to hand out the money for a new planer. I had a job that couldn't be held up any longer by a useless planer. I assume that this was a total fluke, and that the tool is in general quite solid and reliable, but I'm still quite frustrated by the experience. In the meantime, my new Dewalt planer, which cost 150 dollars more or so, is louder, uglier, messier, bulkier, and less pleasant to use and have around the shop. But so far, it's turned on every time I've flicked the switch, so I can't really complain.	negative
1	This is an all time favorite!	"Joe Dirt", is a total classic movie. It ranks up there with "Me, Myself and Irene", "Tommy Boy", "There's something about Mary" and oh you can't forget "Dumb and Dumber". If you have seen any of these movies then it's a sure in that you'll love "Joe Dirt". Its one of those movies you'll enjoy over and over again. I think it is the classic lines that just seem to crack you up.Joe Dirt is a classic white trash trailer dude, that gets lost at the Grand Canyon when he's a kid. He tells his story of where he is today. A janitor at a radio station. The station ends up broadcasting his story and it ends up getting the listners interested and becomes famous.This story is very humorous and has a bit of a love story in it. I am sure you'll love this movie, if you like comedy.	positive
1	A True A+ of a Yoga Tape!	Ana Brett & Ravi Singh seem to have the genius ability to create complete workouts which fuse tradition and innovation and amplify Spirit thru their excellent DVD's. They have sussed out exactly what people in our life and times need, and have given us fun and exciting ways to fill that need. This is a whole body workout which delves deep and turns your exercise time into a life changing experience. Each time I do this I feel lighter and better about myself. I also feel stronger, more relaxed, and more focused and inspired!	positive
1	books	item needed to have with the rest of my books that i read when i have time and hubsand at work	positive
1	Some of the best rhythmic poetry you'll hear	It's commonly said that the Jamaican deejays of the 1970s were the original rappers, or at least the closest to the officially sanctioned MCs of New York City. Instead of being primitive barkers, as one would reason, some of these deejays possessed flexible voices. I-Roy was one of these. At his earthliest he adopted U-Roy's hip-thrusting ejaculation, which went something like: "HHHH-HeUUUuh!!" But on this collection he can also be heard donning a nasal chanting style for one track, a variety of satirical voices, and his trademark gritty baritone, part-rapped, part-sung, which he sweetened when necessary. An array of witticisms, boasts, Biblical citations, movie reviews, and astute commentaries on ghetto living and events - this just nails home the fact that I-Roy was one of the best rappers in any business.	positive
0	Sick, twisted	I had an idea from other reviews that I was about to read a book that was written by a perve, but I did not see that coming. This book is written in the format of a diary. It is 500 pages long, but about 250 pages is all about nipples, bare skin, hard ons and many other similar things. Which would be fine if this was meant to be an erotic read. It's not, from beginning to end it is a sick book. The end being almost the sickest. I read the entire book, so I can't give it one star. I did finish, but kind of wish I never would have started.	negative
0	Not even close	If you need more than 6 (yes, six)foot range or NOT line of sight, DON'T BUY THIS THING. It doesn't perform anywhere close to its advertising claims. or you can have mine ... its going back.	negative
0	I give up!	All that I got out of reading this book is the idea that the author is a smart, successful person. I haven't the slightest clue as to how anything contained in the book can be used in my (or anybody else's) trading. Also, it is much less than an entertaining read. Avoid like the flu - unless you are a masochist, or have trouble sleeping!	negative
0	SHAME	The Prince Lionheart people should be ashamed at the garbage they are selling us to protect our children. This junk is applied with stickers! I used a degreaser, followed by rubbing alcohol to clean area of application. The guard fell off with the very first use of the oven. Do not buy this...if you did and your are equally as upset...post a review. Shame on Prince Lionheart and shame on Amazon for selling this garbage.	negative
1	Works fine	It works well but I put it in my lower cabinets and it is not too easy finding the right can because I have to crouch down and look in a dark cabinet. It would be perfect if it was counter height but who wants a big soup can disposer on the counter.	positive
0	Broke during first use	Well I was using this for the first time yesterday extracting the plastic neck of a transmission filter from its rubber seat and it broke where the shaft meets the handle. Now it's loose there and I don't know whether it will break off. So, since I bought it back in July and can't return it, I'll try epoxy glue before using it again. It might be okay just for pulling spark plug boots; but, if you use it for anything else better not put sideways force on it.	negative
0	You may as well go throw $5 in your trash can right now	You may as well go throw $5 in your trash can right now - and at least save yourself the frustration of finding out for yourself that this flashlight is a total waste of time and money. I have purchased at least three of these from Amazon for kid's birthday's etc. They all have the same problem - they are completely unreliable. I have tried every 'fix' suggested by other users to no avail. If you want a flashlight that goes off and on (mostly off) when you really need it to be available, then this is your flashlight. Otherwise there are better flashlights to be found for under $10. Try the RAYOVAC models - they have been very reliable for the kids.	negative
1	Fourteen Bears Summer and Winter	I was very disappointed to find out that this book is out of print. I used to sign this book out of the library while in grade school...every week. I truly enjoyed this book and would love to get a copy. I think the prices are to the extreme and I find it sad that we cannot purchase this book at a "normal" price. The author should be commended that after 20+ years i'm dreaming about it!	positive
1	Voyager 510	This unit is very comfortable and it has good clarity for the audio in the earpiece. I was pleasantly surprised how well I could hear while driving as other models did not work as well. I would recommend this item.	positive
1	Nice little Vacuum	This is a nice little Vacuum. Easy to use and does a nice job for a inexpensive Vacuum.Gets high ratings from Consumer Reports.	positive
0	Cheesy	There are a few decent moments on this album, but most of the songs are pretty poorly conceived and developed. I mean, bluegrass mixed with stale house beats?!? The Cheese deserve better.On a positive note, I saw the Cheese recently and they sounded nothing like this album.	negative
1	Great Shorts	I've been buying Weekender Trader shorts for almost 20 years and still wear the first pair purchased in Hawaii. I started recently buying additional colors online. I've found that other brands purchased locally rip. Weekender Trader shorts are the ideal length and by far the highest quality shorts I've ever purchased.	positive
1	A great book for those experiencing trials - that means all of us!	This little allegory is a beautiful tale of a girl, Much-Afraid, who is a cripple, with crooked feet. And really, isn't that all of us? It doesn't matter the particulars, we are all crippled by one thing or another, whether it's physical, mental, psychological or spiritual. This story shows the value of perseverance, and the importance of communicating with the "Chief Shepherd," even when all you have is complaints.	positive
0	Money well wasted	Very bad product...Crapped out on me within a month, and couldn't return it. But when it did work there was alot of static. Just goes to show higher price doesn't mean better product. If you like static with your music, Buy it.	negative
1	Cuts perfect	This bit cuts nice holes in 3/16 square steel tubing. Much better than a bi metal saw bit I was using.	positive
1	Bogie an Bacall.. simply magic	I've been keeping my eye on this collection for a while. I figured now was as good a time as any to purchase some of the best chemistry portrayed on film... Bogie and Bacall- good stuff ;)	positive
1	Rockin' Rosie	Rosie is Red Hot & Rockin' on this Zesty Zydeco Album!!I got to see her perform a couple of times and thoroughly enjoyed it!	positive
0	looked good, but wearing it was a different story...	I bought this watch for my 10 year old daughter. She is particular about comfort (so am I) and this watch wasn't as comfortable as it sounded. The watchband was extremely "pokey" on the inside. It was like the plastic stiching on the edges was poking inward toward the skin. We returned it and got a plastic band by Timex that was much more comfortable.	negative
0	Don't buy this	Came as pictured, nice packaging but once I opened it up it didn't work - tried everything it was just a P.O.S.Don't buy it period, its not worth sending back.	negative
1	Concise, informative and organized	The book covers almost all aspects of solid waste management with excellent presentation: regulations, waste characteristics, collection and transfer, landfill, recycling and recovery, thermal destruction, and chemical and biological transformations. Although it does not discuss all the design details of the disposal alternatives, it is one of the most comprehensive coverage in solid waste management. Strongly recommended.	positive
1	great and reliable product	have had this for over 3 years now.use it in office for burning data as well as audio cds.has worked well from day one, no problems in installingor using it.a big two thumbs up. great quality product, burns cds at greatspeeds, and "coaster" rate of around 1 cd in 100 !	positive
0	Not enough details	After reading this book, I was very disappointed that it lacked the details of how to actually comply with the HIPAA regulations in the real world. About half of the book is the act itself which you can download from the US Department of Health and Human Services. The other half contains the background of HIPAA, how to determine if you are a covered entity, and very general information that you can easily obtain by searching the Internet. I would not recommend this book if you are looking for specific details and examples on how to interpret the act and create your own HIPPA compliance plan.	negative
1	A MoGo mouse by another name	A MoGo Mouse with an HP wrapper. Works great. no issues. This model is for a PCMCIA slot.	positive
0	Nice but defective.	This is for the FBQ3201 unit. I just brought this unit home and found it to be defective out of the box. If I were to put a reasonably hot signal into channel 1, after a few seconds it the signal will shut off. What is very strange is that if I touch the case body, the signal immediately returns. Does not do this with same signal on channel 2. I cross checked cables and what not. Have to return unit. I will try one more time.	negative
0	Essential Apparel could not complete order	Essential Apparel was selling this item on sale but placed it on back order and canceled at the same time. Selling items you do not have in stock is bad business.	negative
0	oxo red grips brush refills	OXO Good Grips 1044106 Antibacterial Soap Dispensing Scrub Brush Refills, they are made poorly you may get 4-5 uses then the red scrub part falls off. Not buying those again.	negative
1	A delightful romp through the mind of the insane...	As a student in criminal justice, this book is assigned in our profiling courses. As a result, we are forced to read it in order to obtain a good grade; however, "Red Dragon" is a book you'll WANT to finish...I couldn't put it down!One problemmatic feature in this book is its legalese -- it is deeply rooted in justice terminology which might hinder some novice readers looking for a light, quick read. Steer clear of this book if that is what you seek.However, if you are looking for a book that, although it is dated nearly two decades ago, still pertains to todays criminal justice system, do read it. Not only is it entertaining, it is also very informative. Nicely done, Mr. Harris.	positive
1	'CUZ' LINE OF SQUEAK TOYS ARE THE BEST	JW Pet Company makes the best squeaky rubber dog toys. The squeak is better and unique than most others and the rubber, although not at all indestructible, is slightly stronger and lasts longer than average rubber squeak toys.Minutes with my dog, but he loves 'em!Note: I got the 'GOOD CUZ' with the 2 little feet at the bottom (unlike the picture which is the 'bad cuz' model with stumpy feet. Also all were red or orange) I was/am VERY PLEASED! If you can get such a good price, I have had great experiences with this seller.	positive
1	going green with biokleen	We've decided to start doing our part by switching all of our cleaning products over to products that are better for the environment.With Amazon Prime we were able to save a lot of money buyng biokleen powder in bulk. It smells great and cleans pretty well. Every now and then I have to re wash a glass due to soap that stuck on the glass. Also it would be nice if the detergent came with a measuring spoon. (Even one spoon per case that can be reused would be nice) I ended up just using a plastic teaspoon which I broke in half so it would fit into the jar. Overall I feel great using a detergent that is better on the environment and it cleans just as well as my old detergent.	positive
1	Organizing for the terminally disorganized	This book gives organizing advice an ADD person--or any person for whom "clean enough" is about as good as it gets. It provides real strategies at three levels -- stuff you can do yourself, stuff you need to involve a friend/husband/whatever, and stuff you'd need professional help for (from an organizer and/or therapist.) And there are nice overviews at the end of each chapter for those inclined to skim.I don't give it five stars just because this book is more family-oriented than single-oriented--can't get my husband or kids to help when I don't have any!	positive
1	Great!!	I love this product!!!! It actually sticks to the tub unlike some products with suction cups. It really does let the bathtub fill all the way up. You must keep an eye on the bathtub so that it doesn't overflow ;-)	positive
1	Great value!	This remote is awesome for the money! In a matter of 15-20 minutes, I put 5 remotes away in a drawer. The only button the remote does not have is an eject button for CD players and DVD players...but if you had to have it, you could "teach" the remote this function. I was even able to to have the Sony remote learn the signals of my Comcast digital cable remote - which was awesome because I was never able to find a code for the Comcast remote for universals without the learning feature. Get this remote!	positive
1	Good but dated	MS-DOS. What more can you say? It's fast, stable and was the work horse of PC's for years. However, if you still use DOS (even sometimes) like I do you should try IBM's PC-DOS 2000. It's just as stable, a bit faster, uses less memory and it has been brought up to date. MS-DOS is good. You can't go wrong with it. But PC-DOS 2000 is better. If you're updating give it a try.	positive
0	Good effects but some overacting	This is a movie that has beautiful sets, costumes, and a cast of excellent and well respected actors. However, as one who has always enjoyed the King Arthur/Merlin stories, this is not the typical King Arthur story. I am not sure if kids will like this story because it has some very scary scenes. Miranda Richardson's character is interesting and irritating, the actor effectuates this very weird and almost whinny voice in playing her character as an Evil fairy queen or something. Sam Neill and Isabella Rosilini are good. However, Helena Bonham Carter was terrible and there is a lot of overacting (or maybe just bad acting). The ending is also a let down. But overall, its entertaining to an extent, but I am not in a hurry to view this DVD again.	negative
1	Great for our aviary	We have three parrots in a 14X12 room. It's often very dusty and no matter how much we clean the cages, it smells like the seeds and kibble the birds eat. We started using this unit in the room a week ago. It cleaned the air quickly and now runs very well in automatic mode, keeping both the birds and ourselves comfortable.A great product!	positive
0	Battery Hog	This product appears to be a bit of a battery hog. I went thru 2 sets of batteries in the same day. Each set (duracell alkaline) were good for 2 charges. Afterwards, any attempts to recharge resulted in in spinning and inability to get the helicopter airborne. Better invest in rechargeable batteries for this toy. Any body else have this problem?	negative
1	Nice size for little ears	bought for my daughter's 6th birthday. she wanted dangling earrings. these are not too big for little ears. detail is very nice.	positive
1	Good Product	This is a good home wax. It actually works, although there is a bit of a learning curve, and it didn't irritate my extremely sensitive skin. Yes, it hurts. It hurts like waxing hurts - nothing more, nothing less. I was able to rip the wax off quickly and so the pain didn't last long. It's a bit messy, but again, learning curve.I ordered more because now I want to do my whole body (heh) and I included the wax warmer on my second order just for the convenience of having the wax warmer in the bathroom with me while I work.	positive
0	Disappointing	Having been a serious triathlete who has used heart rate monitors for the past 10 years, I was excited about the description of this product. When I opened the box, I was immediately disappointed in its appearance. It looks like an incredibly cheap watch that you would buy at a dime store. The watch itself looks like it would break apart with any jarring, and the watch band is nothing more than a ribbon that is adjusted by pulling it through a flimsy bracket attached to the watch. This causes the "end" of the band to stick out when the watch is on. I did not use it once, put it back in the box, and am sending it back. It may work just fine, but I'm not going to pay this kind of money for a heart rate monitor that looks like something you got out of a vending machine. Pathetic.	negative
0	If I could give it negative stars, I would...	This product is surprisingly terrible. I'm a big fan of Linksys (and even moreso of Cisco,) my wireless network at home is Linksys and that at my workplace is Cisco. I am a systems/network administrator and I found the setup for this device to be unworth the effort. I am currently awaiting a Return Merchandise Authorization from Linksys so that I can send this piece of rubbish back.	negative
0	Terrible Film... Culturally Destructive	WARNING: This film is TRASH. It encourages drug use, and tries to make the viewer "feel sorry" for homosexuality. The Father ends up smoking marijuana with his socially introverted son and friend, and then encourages his younger son to indulge. The worst cinema-graphic message possible is presented here. If you happen across this DVD, please consider that it WOULD be worth 10 seconds of your time to place the disk inside your microwave on high. Any more time spent with this "Un-Beautiful Ohio" will be wasted. Mathematically, watching this film will deduct 90 minutes from your lifespan.	negative
0	Seemed gimmicky and failed on first try	So I gave it a try, pumped up the air and shot it into my drain a few times. The forth try well nothing happened when I pulled the trigger and it wouldn't work after that. The "tool" is all hard plastic and not even meant for basic home maintenance.	negative
0	Not as much of a next-gen game as I'd hoped.	I played this game for about 15 hours and, after having the game freeze on me nearly every time I played it, a screen finally appeared that said the disc was "either damaged or dirty" and could not be played. This was when I returned the game to amazon as defective. Even ignoring the freezing issues, problems with slow frame-rates and a lack thoughtfulness in character dialog, this game is still not bringing anything terribly innovative to the gaming community. However, the way in which you can engage multiple enemies is well done and I do like the ability to interact with the environment by climbing up building sides. I look forward to trying out the sequel.	negative
1	The weirdest book ever!!!	This is not a bad thing though because it made the book unique. I can tell you right now if you are expecting a book similar to The Silence of the Lambs, you are in for a huge disappointment. If you are looking for an entertaining book though, you have come to the right place. Lots of people were mad at the ending of this book but I think that the ending made this book even better. Just because the ending was not what people wanted, it does not make it a bad ending. All of that aside, this is a great book that is severly underrated.	positive
1	Excellent purchase!	I was trying to decide between this and the Diaper Genie, but so many of my friends had told me that they had stopped using the Diaper Genie after a few weeks b/c it was such a pain to empty AND you have to buy refills for it.I knew I'd never buy the refills much less want to deal with a hassle emptying diapers, so I got the Diaper Champ.I couldn't be happier.- No smell (except of course when you empty it)- Takes regular trash bags, which is VERY convenient!- Very easy to emptyI wouldn't fall for the Diaper Genie. Diaper Champ is great, especially for the money!	positive
0	One of the WORST Batman Stories ever.	Jim Starlin's "The Cult" is one of the worst Batman stories ever. I had high expectations for the book when I started reading it, because it is widely considered one of the best Batman stories. If you enjoy a cowering, broken, scared vigilante, then this is your perfect Batman story. Batman is completely out of character for the entire book and even tries to run away from Gotham at one point. He goes as far as to kill someone and wishes pain and suffering on most of the people he engages in combat. This is nowhere near the level of praise it has received. If you want a TRUE Batman classic, read. LONG HALLOWEEN, DARK VICTORY, YEAR ONE or DARK KNIGHT RETURNS. If you want a complete joke of a Batman story, this books right up your alley.	negative
1	Simply the best!	Way before the time of Tigers and Dragon, there was Iron Monkey (am I the only one to wonder about the relationship with the Monkey God of "Monkey" who is born from an Iron egg? Anyway...)This is simply one of the best Wu Fu movies ever made, with a nice story (if simple, but hey, that's OK), and the most amazing action! We're talking comic-strip moves here! The kind of stuff that even non martial-arts movie fans like.We've had this movie on VHS (and now on DVD) for years, and it's great to see that someone in Hollywood finally figured out that it was a hidden gem that deserved a proper theatrical release (just like they did with Jackie Chan's Drunken Master).Because no-one had heard of it, we've had numerous viewing parties at home, and every time, everyone loved the movie, so believe me if you feel like some quality entertainment, chances are you will love it too!	positive

1	Gin is one tough cookie :-)	Gin Miller is the inventor of step aerobics. She's got all the moves and she is a great instructor. She's tough and motivating and she's not over the top like some fake instructors. She's pleasant to watch and makes you want to get up off your [...]. She also lets her sense of humour come through which is nice and refreshing.There are four workouts here and she is one of the best cuers around. This is no exception. Each workout targets a different section of your body. You use weights (wrist or ankle), dumbells and weighted balls. You don't do floorwork, but you either sit or stand so you can get your best form. It's a long workout if you do it altogether, so I prefer to do it in parts. You are going to feel the burn let me tell you, but you know what? It's an excellent workout and because it's motivating, I'm doing it and seeing results.	positive

1	Amazing!	I loved this book so much. I have read it about twelve times and still find the same drama as realistic and hilarious as the first time I read it. Some of the drama is probably very unrealistic, but it still adds up to be a great book. Written in I.M.s this book is about 10th grade high school for any average high school student. The three main characters, Maddie (madmaddie), Zo (zoegirl) and Angela (snowangel), get in the midst of high school drama. Maddie gets in trouble at a party and it's around the whole school in ten minutes, and it almost ruins her reputation. Good girl Zo gets on with their high school English teacher. And Angela gets stalkerish boy trouble from a guy who won't leave her alone. I recommend this book to any middle or high school girl looking to step out of her drama and into another's.	positive

0	Storyline tolerable...unabridged audio.. downright painful	The book was predictable and I found the characters hard to like I mean geez usually a poor victimized deaf/mute would be an automatic "gimmee" but no Anna just didn't do it for me. Jack was not a drifter with no base but more like a loser with one dimensional character where's the [good looking] texans' Ms. Brown usually gives us?? Now that being said onto the unabridged audio tape it was hard to keep track of characters and then there's no lead-in on the tapes so I think I actually skipped one tape (but it didn't matter so no bigge) John Henry Cox did the vocals and the whiney whiney groanie David character was done so well I really had to rethink my opinion on corporal punishment..	negative

0	Couldn't get through it.	Gloria Mendez has worked for, and been in love with, her boss, Carl Perreira for ten years. Gloria receives an unintelligible message from Carl, who is on vacation in Mexico. When she tries to find him, she learns he was killed in a car accident. As Gloria tries to find out more about Carl, but the more she learns the more she finds he was not who he seemed.I like books that are character driven, but the characters needs to be interesting and the story needs to compelling enough that I want to keep reading. Both these aspects were missing here. It wasn't terrible and I could have kept going, but finally, at page 112, I found myself wondering why I wasting time with this book. My overall reaction was that I really didn't care what happened and that's when I put the book down. I'd rather spend my time with a book that makes me need to read it.	negative

1	Excellent Parent Resource	Ruth Yaron has put together one great, easy to read book about feeding your children (and family) healthy, economical meals. This book was a daily reference for me during my son's first year. This book makes you feel like your families' dietician with a very easy to read, quick reference format. She uses humor and real life situations to make this "cookbook" come alive. I have recommended it to everyone I know with children and have given it as baby shower gifts. Outstanding!	positive

1	Electronic world music?	Bob Holroyd has crafted an outstanding CD that combines the influences of world music (influences that sound like they come from all over the globe!) with the nuanaces and subtleties available in electronic music. The rhythms and percussion really stand out in nearly every track, and they're remarkably different on every track. The first track and "African Drug" are African-influenced fast-moving fly-bys, while "Adrift in Kerala" and "Something Understood" are more Asian trance. "Earthwatching", my favorite, is unlike everything else on the CD - mysterious and purely electronic. The vocals on the CD are sparse yet effective, and each track will grab you in its own way. A great CD!	positive

Not effective as a humidifier

I bought two of these humidifiers for my daughters' rooms, which are fairly small. I liked the size of this model as well as the fact that it didn't have a filter that would need replacing. I returned both of them soon after receiving them. They blew a mist of water about six inches straight up, which proceeded to fall back down, drenching the humidifier as well as whatever surface I put it on. It was not effective at increasing the humidity in the room at all. Plus, on the lowest setting it only lasted for about 6-7 hours. I wouldn't recommend this humidifier to anybody.

Made where?

Purchased this 8-1/2 saucer as well as the 2-1/2. Unpleasantly supprised to discover that they were made in China. The obvious swirl marks and that "made in China" stamped into the bottom of the pot was not to my liking. I feel that Amazon and Calphalon should make it clear that the product was not made in the USA. I don't need to be making any contributions to the red army.

Two things about this album

First, it reminds you that both artists are darn good vocalists and should do something with their voices with consequence before they get too old (no, this isn't it). Everything here is very competent in terms of production and sound.Second, it should be a stern reminder for anyone else thinking of doing something like this to totally forget it. Remaking "Cinnamon Girl"? "Monday Monday?" Are you insane? And then trying to nearly copy them note for note (and pretty much succeeding), what's the point of that? Lots of people try things like this, even the Simple Minds of all bands, and no one has ever pulled it off. Music to play when you feel the need to throw up. Just embarrasing.

Dried Broken Fava Beans

I was so looking forward to my dried fava beans. When I opened the box, I was so disappointed. The picture above shows nice whole fava beans with uniform color. The ones I got were all different colors with lots to discard and way too many broken ones, and I don't mean just broken in half...broken in lots of tiny pieces. I would never serve these to company unless I opened two or three bags and picked out the whole ones.The bags were packed nice and safe with plenty of bubble wrap. I can only assume they were this way when they were packed. I am very disappointed in the quality of these dried fava beans and wonder why Amazon even bothered to carry them. It is far below their usual standard of quality. You want fava beans? Skip these.

Editing/Directing Ruins the action

The only reason to watch a movie of this genre is so that you can SEE the fighting scenes. The director's weak attempt to make it exciting with closeups and a shakey camera makes it impossible to see what is going on in the fighting scenes. Camera shakes, close up of face, close up of hand, close up of blood, guy on ground?!? Might as well used stop motion with dummies. Seen better fight scenes on youtube. Total waste of time.

The Truth About THE TRUTH ABOUT MEDIUM

This book promises the extraordinary, including specific data from science experiments, but what we get are more anecdotes about how great Mr. Schwartz's experiments are. He features highlights of experiments with medium Allison DuBois, but Schwartz' bias in favor of his subject matter makes this book an epiphany of self-celebration. There is a fascinating section, The Monty Keen Experiment, and the results seem extremely remarkable -- why isn't it published in Science Magazine? Talk of "Replication and Extension Reading" is confined to Mr. Schwartz's "Lab," and we're left wondering if any of Schwartz's experimental designs or raw data are being shared with other universities. Why sacrifice scientific method for sensational tidbits? Oh, yeah! The book's release coincides exactly with the new fall TV season of MEDIUM.

Like a puppet on a string, like a monkey on swing

Thanks to This TV (channel 5.3), Los Angles, who was doing a bad movie weekend, that I got to watch this movie 3 times in about as many days. And after this movie, no other movie has ever satisfied me. This has almost replaced "Paris, Texas" as one of my all-time favorite movies.It is like, Once you go Apple, you cannot go any other way. This is a great movie. If you are familiar with Disco-era Bollywood movies, you will see how many times this movie, and its song-and-dance sequences, have been copied. This is a masterpiece (this point is not open to negotiation). Everything about this movie is excellent.Thank God, we survived 1994!

Great Potty Book

I bought this book for my daughter along with Once Upon a Potty. I personally was more drawn in by the Once Upon a Potty title, but I actually think my daughter likes this one better. I started reading both to her shortly before I was getting ready to potty train. Ihink the books helped expose her to the idea of potty training, because she immediately caught on. I would tell her that she had to go on the Potty, like Hannah and Prudence. The books are very similar in the idea, but I think this one is a little more elementary, but in that way appeals more to small children for example with the rhyming. WE still read this book even though she got the hang of going potty to reinforce the message and I think it is helping.

Limited Visualizations and Meditations -- Not Worth the Expense

Given the number of tracks on this CD, I was looking forward to a variety of meditations and music to support them. However, most tracks have a one sentence meditation (no music!!) with very limited vizualizations for you to use. I've found many other CDs out there which provide a more comprehensive meditation and visualization experience for less money. Not an item which I would recommend spending your money on.

Worked Great

It was an absolute joy to use for the week or so that it worked. Quiet, powerful, smooth-cutting - in general did an excellent job, though I didn't ask too much of it at first. But then a week or so after unpacking it it simply didn't turn on in the morning, and a few weeks of dealing with customer service later - I got a replacement part, installed it, nothing changed - I had wasted so much time and energy that I had to hand out the money for a new planer. I had a job that couldn't be held up any longer by a useless planer. I assume that this was a total fluke, and that the tool is in general quite solid and reliable, but I'm still quite frustrated by the experience. In the meantime, my new Dewalt planer, which cost 150 dollars more or so, is louder, uglier, messier, bulkier, and less pleasant to use and have around the shop. But so far, it's turned on every time I've flicked the switch, so I can't really complain.

This is an all time favorite!

"Joe Dirt", is a total classic movie. It ranks up there with "Me, Myself and Irene", "Tommy Boy", "There's something about Mary" and oh you can't forget "Dumb and Dumber". If you have seen any of these movies then it's a sure in that you'll love "Joe Dirt". Its one of those movies you'll enjoy over and over again. I think it is the classic lines that just seem to crack you up.Joe Dirt is a classic white trash trailer dude, that gets lost at the Grand Canyon when he's a kid. He tells his story of where he is today. A janitor at a radio station. The station ends up broadcasting his story and it ends up getting the listners interested and becomes famous.This story is very humorous and has a bit of a love story in it. I am sure you'll love this movie, if you like comedy.

Some of the best rhythmic poetry you'll hear

It's commonly said that the Jamaican deejays of the 1970s were the original rappers, or at least the closest to the officially sanctioned MCs of New York City. Instead of being primitive barkers, as one would reason, some of these deejays possessed flexible voices. I-Roy was one of these. At his earthliest he adopted U-Roy's hip-thrusting ejaculation, which went something like: "HHHH-HeUUUuh!!" But on this collection he can also be heard donning a nasal chanting style for one track, a variety of satirical voices, and his trademark gritty baritone, part-rapped, part-sung, which he sweetened when necessary. An array of witticisms, boasts, Biblical citations, movie reviews, and astute commentaries on ghetto living and events - this just nails home the fact that I-Roy was one of the best rappers in any business.

Sick, twisted

I had an idea from other reviews that I was about to read a book that was written by a perve, but I did not see that coming. This book is written in the format of a diary. It is 500 pages long, but about 250 pages is all about nipples, bare skin, hard ons and many other similar things. Which would be fine if this was meant to be an erotic read. It's not, from beginning to end it is a sick book. The end being almost the sickest. I read the entire book, so I can't give it one star. I did finish, but kind of wish I never would have started.

Broke during first use

Well I was using this for the first time yesterday extracting the plastic neck of a transmission filter from its rubber seat and it broke where the shaft meets the handle. Now it's loose there and I don't know whether it will break off. So, since I bought it back in July and can't return it, I'll try epoxy glue before using it again. It might be okay just for pulling spark plug boots; but, if you use it for anything else better not put sideways force on it.

You may as well go throw $5 in your trash can right now

You may as well go throw $5 in your trash can right now - and at least save yourself the frustration of finding out for yourself that this flashlight is a total waste of time and money. I have purchased at least three of these from Amazon for kid's birthday's etc. They all have the same problem - they are completely unreliable. I have tried every 'fix' suggested by other users to no avail. If you want a flashlight that goes off and on (mostly off) when you really need it to be available, then this is your flashlight. Otherwise there are better flashlights to be found for under $10. Try the RAYOVAC models - they have been very reliable for the kids.

This little allegory is a beautiful tale of a girl, Much-Afraid, who is a cripple, with crooked feet. And really, isn't that all of us?

The book covers almost all aspects of solid waste management with excellent presentation: regulations, waste characteristics, collection and transfer, landfill, recycling and recovery, thermal destruction, and chemical and biological transformations.

Not enough details

After reading this book, I was very disappointed that it lacked the details of how to actually comply with the HIPAA regulations in the real world. About half of the book is the act itself which you can download from the US Department of Health and Human Services. The other half contains the background of HIPAA, how to determine if you are a covered entity, and very general information that you can easily obtain by searching the Internet. I would not recommend this book if you are looking for specific details and examples on how to interpret the act and create your own HIPPA compliance plan.

A delightful romp through the mind of the insane...

As a student in criminal justice, this book is assigned in our profiling courses. As a result, we are forced to read it in order to obtain a good grade; however, "Red Dragon" is a book you'll WANT to finish...I couldn't put it down!One problemmatic feature in this book is its legalese -- it is deeply rooted in justice terminology which might hinder some novice readers looking for a light, quick read. Steer clear of this book if that is what you seek.However, if you are looking for a book that, although it is dated nearly two decades ago, still pertains to todays criminal justice system, do read it. Not only is it entertaining, it is also very informative. Nicely done, Mr. Harris.

'CUZ' LINE OF SQUEAK TOYS ARE THE BEST

JW Pet Company makes the best squeaky rubber dog toys. The squeak is better and unique than most others and the rubber, although not at all indestructible, is slightly stronger and lasts longer than average rubber squeak toys.Minutes with my dog, but he loves 'em!Note: I got the 'GOOD CUZ' with the 2 little feet at the bottom (unlike the picture which is the 'bad cuz' model with stumpy feet. Also all were red or orange) I was/am VERY PLEASED! If you can get such a good price, I have had great experiences with this seller.

going green with biokleen

We've decided to start doing our part by switching all of our cleaning products over to products that are better for the environment.With Amazon Prime we were able to save a lot of money buyng biokleen powder in bulk. It smells great and cleans pretty well. Every now and then I have to re wash a glass due to soap that stuck on the glass. Also it would be nice if the detergent came with a measuring spoon. (Even one spoon per case that can be reused would be nice) I ended up just using a plastic teaspoon which I broke in half so it would fit into the jar. Overall I feel great using a detergent that is better on the environment and it cleans just as well as my old detergent.

Organizing for the terminally disorganized

This book gives organizing advice an ADD person--or any person for whom "clean enough" is about as good as it gets. It provides real strategies at three levels -- stuff you can do yourself, stuff you need to involve a friend/husband/whatever, and stuff you'd need professional help for (from an organizer and/or therapist.) And there are nice overviews at the end of each chapter for those inclined to skim.I don't give it five stars just because this book is more family-oriented than single-oriented--can't get my husband or kids to help when I don't have any!

Great!!

I love this product!!!! It actually sticks to the tub unlike some products with suction cups. It really does let the bathtub fill all the way up. You must keep an eye on the bathtub so that it doesn't overflow ;-)

Great value!

This remote is awesome for the money! In a matter of 15-20 minutes, I put 5 remotes away in a drawer. The only button the remote does not have is an eject button for CD players and DVD players...but if you had to have it, you could "teach" the remote this function. I was even able to to have the Sony remote learn the signals of my Comcast digital cable remote - which was awesome because I was never able to find a code for the Comcast remote for universals without the learning feature. Get this remote!

Good but dated

MS-DOS. What more can you say? It's fast, stable and was the work horse of PC's for years. However, if you still use DOS (even sometimes) like I do you should try IBM's PC-DOS 2000. It's just as stable, a bit faster, uses less memory and it has been brought up to date. MS-DOS is good. You can't go wrong with it. But PC-DOS 2000 is better. If you're updating give it a try.

Good effects but some overacting

This is a movie that has beautiful sets, costumes, and a cast of excellent and well respected actors. However, as one who has always enjoyed the King Arthur/Merlin stories, this is not the typical King Arthur story. I am not sure if kids will like this story because it has some very scary scenes. Miranda Richardson's character is interesting and irritating, the actor effectuates this very weird and almost whinny voice in playing her character as an Evil fairy queen or something. Sam Neill and Isabella Rosilini are good. However, Helena Bonham Carter was terrible and there is a lot of overacting (or maybe just bad acting). The ending is also a let down. But overall, its entertaining to an extent, but I am not in a hurry to view this DVD again.

Great for our aviary

We have three parrots in a 14X12 room. It's often very dusty and no matter how much we clean the cages, it smells like the seeds and kibble the birds eat. We started using this unit in the room a week ago. It cleaned the air quickly and now runs very well in automatic mode, keeping both the birds and ourselves comfortable.A great product!

Battery Hog

This product appears to be a bit of a battery hog. I went thru 2 sets of batteries in the same day. Each set (duracell alkaline) were good for 2 charges. Afterwards, any attempts to recharge resulted in in spinning and inability to get the helicopter airborne. Better invest in rechargeable batteries for this toy. Any body else have this problem?

Good Product

This is a good home wax. It actually works, although there is a bit of a learning curve, and it didn't irritate my extremely sensitive skin. Yes, it hurts. It hurts like waxing hurts - nothing more, nothing less. I was able to rip the wax off quickly and so the pain didn't last long. It's a bit messy, but again, learning curve.I ordered more because now I want to do my whole body (heh) and I included the wax warmer on my second order just for the convenience of having the wax warmer in the bathroom with me while I work.

Disappointing

Having been a serious triathlete who has used heart rate monitors for the past 10 years, I was excited about the description of this product. When I opened the box, I was immediately disappointed in its appearance. It looks like an incredibly cheap watch that you would buy at a dime store. The watch itself looks like it would break apart with any jarring, and the watch band is nothing more than a ribbon that is adjusted by pulling it through a flimsy bracket attached to the watch. This causes the "end" of the band to stick out when the watch is on. I did not use it once, put it back in the box, and am sending it back. It may work just fine, but I'm not going to pay this kind of money for a heart rate monitor that looks like something you got out of a vending machine. Pathetic.

If I could give it negative stars, I would...

This product is surprisingly terrible. I'm a big fan of Linksys (and even moreso of Cisco,) my wireless network at home is Linksys and that at my workplace is Cisco. I am a systems/network administrator and I found the setup for this device to be unworth the effort. I am currently awaiting a Return Merchandise Authorization from Linksys so that I can send this piece of rubbish back.

Terrible Film... Culturally Destructive

WARNING: This film is TRASH. It encourages drug use, and tries to make the viewer "feel sorry" for homosexuality. The Father ends up smoking marijuana with his socially introverted son and friend, and then encourages his younger son to indulge. The worst cinema-graphic message possible is presented here. If you happen across this DVD, please consider that it WOULD be worth 10 seconds of your time to place the disk inside your microwave on high. Any more time spent with this "Un-Beautiful Ohio" will be wasted. Mathematically, watching this film will deduct 90 minutes from your lifespan.

Seemed gimmicky and failed on first try

So I gave it a try, pumped up the air and shot it into my drain a few times. The forth try well nothing happened when I pulled the trigger and it wouldn't work after that. The "tool" is all hard plastic and not even meant for basic home maintenance.

Not as much of a next-gen game as I'd hoped.

I played this game for about 15 hours and, after having the game freeze on me nearly every time I played it, a screen finally appeared that said the disc was "either damaged or dirty" and could not be played. This was when I returned the game to amazon as defective. Even ignoring the freezing issues, problems with slow frame-rates and a lack thoughtfulness in character dialog, this game is still not bringing anything terribly innovative to the gaming community. However, the way in which you can engage multiple enemies is well done and I do like the ability to interact with the environment by climbing up building sides. I look forward to trying out the sequel.

The weirdest book ever!!!

This is not a bad thing though because it made the book unique. I can tell you right now if you are expecting a book similar to The Silence of the Lambs, you are in for a huge disappointment. If you are looking for an entertaining book though, you have come to the right place. Lots of people were mad at the ending of this book but I think that the ending made this book even better. Just because the ending was not what people wanted, it does not make it a bad ending. All of that aside, this is a great book that is severly underrated.

Excellent purchase!

I was trying to decide between this and the Diaper Genie, but so many of my friends had told me that they had stopped using the Diaper Genie after a few weeks b/c it was such a pain to empty AND you have to buy refills for it.I knew I'd never buy the refills much less want to deal with a hassle emptying diapers, so I got the Diaper Champ.I couldn't be happier.- No smell (except of course when you empty it)- Takes regular trash bags, which is VERY convenient!- Very easy to emptyI wouldn't fall for the Diaper Genie. Diaper Champ is great, especially for the money!

One of the WORST Batman Stories ever.

Jim Starlin's "The Cult" is one of the worst Batman stories ever. I had high expectations for the book when I started reading it, because it is widely considered one of the best Batman stories. If you enjoy a cowering, broken, scared vigilante, then this is your perfect Batman story. Batman is completely out of character for the entire book and even tries to run away from Gotham at one point. He goes as far as to kill someone and wishes pain and suffering on most of the people he engages in combat. This is nowhere near the level of praise it has received. If you want a TRUE Batman classic, read. LONG HALLOWEEN, DARK VICTORY, YEAR ONE or DARK KNIGHT RETURNS. If you want a complete joke of a Batman story, this books right up your alley.

Simply the best!

Way before the time of Tigers and Dragon, there was Iron Monkey (am I the only one to wonder about the relationship with the Monkey God of "Monkey" who is born from an Iron egg? Anyway...)This is simply one of the best Wu Fu movies ever made, with a nice story (if simple, but hey, that's OK), and the most amazing action! We're talking comic-strip moves here! The kind of stuff that even non martial-arts movie fans like.We've had this movie on VHS (and now on DVD) for years, and it's great to see that someone in Hollywood finally figured out that it was a hidden gem that deserved a proper theatrical release (just like they did with Jackie Chan's Drunken Master).Because no-one had heard of it, we've had numerous viewing parties at home, and every time, everyone loved the movie, so believe me if you feel like some quality entertainment, chances are you will love it too!

The hammock is very well made,and is very strong, but it is too short to cover the seat properly. When our dog jumps onto the hammock his muddy paws hit the seat first. My husband has another brand in his car and he has never had this problem. My car is a sonata so the seat isn't huge.

Gin is one tough cookie :-)

Gin Miller is the inventor of step aerobics. She's got all the moves and she is a great instructor. She's tough and motivating and she's not over the top like some fake instructors. She's pleasant to watch and makes you want to get up off your [...]. She also lets her sense of humour come through which is nice and refreshing.There are four workouts here and she is one of the best cuers around. This is no exception. Each workout targets a different section of your body. You use weights (wrist or ankle), dumbells and weighted balls. You don't do floorwork, but you either sit or stand so you can get your best form. It's a long workout if you do it altogether, so I prefer to do it in parts. You are going to feel the burn let me tell you, but you know what? It's an excellent workout and because it's motivating, I'm doing it and seeing results.

Amazing!

I loved this book so much. I have read it about twelve times and still find the same drama as realistic and hilarious as the first time I read it. Some of the drama is probably very unrealistic, but it still adds up to be a great book. Written in I.M.s this book is about 10th grade high school for any average high school student. The three main characters, Maddie (madmaddie), Zo (zoegirl) and Angela (snowangel), get in the midst of high school drama. Maddie gets in trouble at a party and it's around the whole school in ten minutes, and it almost ruins her reputation. Good girl Zo gets on with their high school English teacher. And Angela gets stalkerish boy trouble from a guy who won't leave her alone. I recommend this book to any middle or high school girl looking to step out of her drama and into another's.

A Great Watch at a Great Price!!

I have had my eye on this particular watch for about six months. The price was a little too steep for me until I seen the cost Amazon was charging. At first I hesitated because I never ordered jewelry on line but since it was Amazon and the price was right I decided to take a chance. I am very happy with my choice and the price I paid. Thank you.

What an utter piece of crap!

If I could give this disco ball no stars I would but 1 is the lowest it will let me go!!!! I received the packaged half untaped and then took the inner box out with the light in it and stuff was rattling around in it, black plastic pieces started falling out so being that its less than a week till christmas I thought maybe I could replace a washer or something from lowes.... No such luck!!! the WHOLE gear that rotates the light was snapped off inside of the light... I mean come on. When somebody shipped that out they didnt think to check it when they heard pieces rattling around. Give me a break. Im just glad a found it before my little girl opened it christmas morning ... how disappointing would that be!

A whole new perspective on our existing universe

First of all, I would like to make clear that I am ot an expert on the issu at hand. Nonetheless, I was truly impressed by the detailed explanation given b Mr. Charroux. Subjects such as ufo`s, religions, archaic cultures and rituals, seem to be readable and understandable thanks to Mr. Charroux fine explanation of all these phenomena.

Storyline tolerable...unabridged audio.. downright painful

The book was predictable and I found the characters hard to like I mean geez usually a poor victimized deaf/mute would be an automatic "gimmee" but no Anna just didn't do it for me. Jack was not a drifter with no base but more like a loser with one dimensional character where's the [good looking] texans' Ms. Brown usually gives us?? Now that being said onto the unabridged audio tape it was hard to keep track of characters and then there's no lead-in on the tapes so I think I actually skipped one tape (but it didn't matter so no bigge) John Henry Cox did the vocals and the whiney whiney groanie David character was done so well I really had to rethink my opinion on corporal punishment..

Couldn't get through it.

Gloria Mendez has worked for, and been in love with, her boss, Carl Perreira for ten years. Gloria receives an unintelligible message from Carl, who is on vacation in Mexico. When she tries to find him, she learns he was killed in a car accident. As Gloria tries to find out more about Carl, but the more she learns the more she finds he was not who he seemed.I like books that are character driven, but the characters needs to be interesting and the story needs to compelling enough that I want to keep reading. Both these aspects were missing here. It wasn't terrible and I could have kept going, but finally, at page 112, I found myself wondering why I wasting time with this book. My overall reaction was that I really didn't care what happened and that's when I put the book down. I'd rather spend my time with a book that makes me need to read it.

I bought this unit somewhere else. It lasted through 6 uses, with a burning smell. The gears stripped, and I threw it away. I just purchased the Chefs Choice 610 from Amazon, and Im very pleased. It did a great job, didn't smell and it was easy to clean up. It's a very nice unit for the price.

Excellent Parent Resource

Ruth Yaron has put together one great, easy to read book about feeding your children (and family) healthy, economical meals. This book was a daily reference for me during my son's first year. This book makes you feel like your families' dietician with a very easy to read, quick reference format. She uses humor and real life situations to make this "cookbook" come alive. I have recommended it to everyone I know with children and have given it as baby shower gifts. Outstanding!

Electronic world music?

Bob Holroyd has crafted an outstanding CD that combines the influences of world music (influences that sound like they come from all over the globe!) with the nuanaces and subtleties available in electronic music. The rhythms and percussion really stand out in nearly every track, and they're remarkably different on every track. The first track and "African Drug" are African-influenced fast-moving fly-bys, while "Adrift in Kerala" and "Something Understood" are more Asian trance. "Earthwatching", my favorite, is unlike everything else on the CD - mysterious and purely electronic. The vocals on the CD are sparse yet effective, and each track will grab you in its own way. A great CD!
