0	DISAPPOINTING	THIS ALBUM FAILS WITH TOO LONG OF INSTUMENTAL SECTIONS IN MANY SONGS. THAT MAKES THESE SONGS VERY DULL. OF COURSE, "LIBERATION" IS COMPLETELY INSTRUMENTAL AND VERY BORING. "BEGINNINGS" AND "QUESTIONS 67 & 68" ARE THE ONLY SONGS HERE THAT ARE EVEN THE LEAST BIT MEMORABLE. MOST OF THESE SONGS JUST DON'T GO ANYWHERE. THANK GOODNESS CETERA, WITH SOME HELP FROM DAVID FOSTER, EVENTUALLY GOT THIS BAND RIGHT WITH HIS UNERRING SENSE OF MELODY AND SONGCRAFT. THAT CREATED THE NEW AND 100 TIMES BETTER CHICAGO.	negative
0	Cannot Recommend	I used this vacuum for the first time today and was fairly pleased with it until I broke it while trying to put it away.Update: Electrolux sent me a new power head attachment free of charge. That one broke too. It is unacceptable for a $300-$400 vacuum to be so flimsy. This vacuum is cheaply made and should have a price that reflects that.	negative
1	One of Abbey's Better Novels	Abbey is at his doomsday best with this tale that leaves a glimmer of hope that we can yet save ourselves. Say what what you want about Abbey (narcissistic, sexist, moody), the guy could write! He was also ahead of his time in his warnings about our abuse of the environment!	positive
1	I laughed, I Cried!	This is the first book I've read from this author, and I have to say I found it to be a mixed bag. I really enjoyed Thomas and especially Hairy (who I think, stole the show). But sometimes the action left a bit to be believed. I think the author shouldn't have let on who the killer was so early, but I did thoroughly enjoy the story, and really liked the intense scenes between Thomas and Emma. I look forward to reading more of this author's work.	positive
1	And why (the f**k) is Lindsay being compared to Kelly?	I have heard this album. I will tell you now, the first two songs are great, the rest are rubbish. Kelly Clarkson is a beautiful girl and singer, and Lindsay is nowhere near as good. So, people who are saying this is similar to Kelly's music, music or voice wise, get your ears checked, and while you're at it, you probably need a reality check soon. And everyone likes it because boo hoo she talks about love-hate relationships between her and her father. Kelly's album is much better! And more personal!Remember, I told you I listened to this. It's garbage, apart from the first two efforts.	positive
0	Too much Barney talking and not enough dancing	There are some good scenes in the DVD showing toddlers and older kids dancing. However, most of the DVD is Barney talking. I wanted more dancing tunes, and more dancing. I wanted to have the little guy see other kids dancing to music. Mostly what you get here is Barney. I would imagine that the owners of Barney are always trying to sell the Barney franchise. However, what I wanted is not the promotion of Barney but the promotion of dancing for kids. This video was not very helpful for getting the little guy to move and dance. Too bad, since Barney has the money to produce excellent videos. This one falls short.	negative
0	What was I smoking	I can not believe I did this film. My career went from the toilet to the sewers. I cant even get Michael Jackson to touch me anymore. Atleast working with marissa gave me plenty of stroke material. I have made the guys I went to high school with so proud.As for a career in acting, I have been reduced to non speaking roles in animal erotica (TJ style, bottom that is)But as I have heard this is how Ben Affleck got his start so there is still hope for me...Ok maybe not	negative
0	False advertising	I picked this one up because it clearly stated on the outer packaging and on the inside slim case that the version of I Know What You Did Last Summer included was the exclusive 'Special Edition' with "Director's short film 'Joyride' with optional commentary, exclusive new documentary, music video 'Hush' performed by Kula Shaker, etc." Well, guess what, it isn't. The disc is the original released one sans the pan and scan version on the flip side, what a ripoff.	negative
0	Disappointing Quality and Content	This 3D Blu-ray has the potential to be wonderful, but it falls short. Most of the 3D effect has ghosting throughout most of the video. Its like everything is out of focus. Also, the plot is silly and pointless. Save your money.	negative
0	Effective?	Is there any such thing as an "effective" condo board member to begin with? And in whose opinion? "Effective" is subjective.	negative
0	Cheap	This cord worked fine on my 32"TV. However, I also needed it to work on my projector screen. The cord made the screen flicker on and off. I ended up returning it and spending the extra money on a Monster cable, which works great.	negative
0	will be their one hit wonder	I love Underoath, with the exception of this record. it was a little too mainstrem for me. Lost In The Sound, the newest album, is Underoath doing what they do best.This album reflects exactly where the band was at the time, without a lead vocalist and without direction caused by rushing to the studio and throwing 9 songs together. Aaron, the drummer, sang on most of this and new vocalist Spencer threw in screams afterwards.this would have been good as Aaron's solo album, but not as Underoath.	negative
1	like the way Dee Davis writes	Made me want to read second and third book, although since reading they are not a continuation but still good and worth a read.	positive
1	DA BOMB	I think this is the best TLC album evendo they're all phat and I must say the girls are really looking good. What I didn't like was that the No SCRUBS video has Left Eye rappin and in the CD She Don't rap in that song but it's still Blazing.....JM, Puerto Rico	positive
1	Great Diaper Pail!	We bought this 2 1/2 years ago when my son was born. It was great and odorless until my son was almost 2 and he wasn't odorless anymore. It holds alot of Diapers and if one gets stuck it is easy to fix the problem. I love the fact that I can use my kitchen bags!! I think the ease of this and the amount of diapers it holds is unbeatable. My second baby is due in 3 months and I will be pulling this out again.!	positive
1	If you are even slightly mad for Tadd....	This album contains what is arguably the best recent recording of the much-recorded "If You Could See Me Now" and on that basis alone is a great reason to own this CD. Also, the music has a very period-authentic feel, engendered by the chosen voicings. I have been collecting Dameron "tribute" recordings for many years and this qualifies as the best or second-best. This is a thoughtful creation and a worthy appreciation of the composer.	positive
1	Incredible!!!!!	At first I was not expecting much. But when the movie started, I had a big smile on my face. The detail on the scene is amazing, you can even read street signs. The sound quality is excellent, true surround. I started watching this move when I was 5 years old and completely destroyed the VHS print after 80+ viewings. Now I don't have to worry about that :-) I would highly recommend this to anyone!!! and you can't beat the price at amazon, simply amazing!!	positive
1	Philisophical	From the point of view of reminiscing on life....This record has some true thoughts; an older man/woman does know what it is to be young and a younger person cannot yet feel old, when they are yet young and living with zest.I like this rambling snippet of philosophy on life.....	positive
1	Great camera	I bought this 2 weeks ago. It was very easy to use right out of the box (well after the battery charges). I would have liked to get a digital camera that takes AA's because they are easy to find if your battery runs out. I took this camera to Disney on Ice - even though it is very dark in the arena it took great pictures. I put the software cd into my computer it installed in about 2 seconds,..I hooked the camera up to the USB port on the computer and the pictures were instantly on my computer. I took the pictures I wanted off the memory stick took them to the grocery store and had them print them out. Couldn't be easier. NOTE: You CANNOT use a memory card with this camera. I made the mistake and bought a 1GB only to find out I needed a memory stick duo (about the same price as a memory card). Overall I love this camera...very small fit right in my purse. The shutter speed isn't great but better than most digital cameras. Also, I paid alot less at Best Buy for this.	positive
1	One of the Best	After reading this story of a man who is so caught up in beauty that he ruins his life over it, I took the time to examine my own feelings on many things....Wilde has done it again in this one.I LOVED IT!!	positive
1	Perfect for the students.	For a reasonable price, this is a good flash drive for middle schoolers and young high schoolers. Big enough to keep track of, yet just enough memory space for those little term papers and projects. The overall service of the vendor was satisfactory.	positive
0	Horrible Treatment of Dedicated Fans	Why on Earth would the UFC treat their dedicated fans like this? I too have collected all the Pride events and UFC events via DVD over the last few years. I want 57 only as I already spent good money on the other two UFC DVDs. Even on their website they don't offer 57 separately. It makes no sense. It's like saying, hey all you guys that love us and pay for our DVD events, if you want 57, you have to buy two duplicates you already own and waste your money. It really bugs me. If anyone knows where to get a UFC57 DVD. Please let me know. I'm not even going to buy from the UFC website anymore after this.	negative
1	Hello Kitty Toaster	Thought this was a great item the toaster slots are a bit to wide need to use thicker bread in order for the hello kitty imprint to show up other than that delivery was speedy and arrived when it was said to!	positive
0	Ugh	I watched this one on fast foward x8...The lead character is dead and already in Hell, the end. Save your money, give it to a charity but don't spend it on this stinker.	negative
0	smack the editors	As mentioned by other reviewers, this DVD is just horrible to watch because of the absurd amount that the cameras cut away to another scene every few seconds. If you want to watch a guitar solo or anything else for that matter to absorb any details, forget it! The editor(s) didn't do the Scorpions justice. The music is good, but since this is a DVD and not a CD, I'm giving two stars for the spazoid video technique.	negative
0	misleading and disappointing	I eagerly awaited a title that professed to have dozens of poses and hundreds of photographs only to find that the CD-ROM includes only 18 poses total, and does not even include all of the poses featured in the book. The resolution is low quality (especially when zooming in,) and there is no PRINT functionality. The work itself is a good idea, but one that has obviously been developed before its authors had adequate resources to produce it well. The "music" and "tutorial" sections are completely irrelevant and actually somewhat annoying. I had no interest at all in the author's personal life or his "8 minute improvised guitar piece" dedicated to someone I had never heard of. Better to wait for a high-tech agency to release a good product of this nature than to waste money on this marginally useful CD.	negative
0	WRONG PRODUCT RECOMMENDED	This product was recommended to me to be purchase with my Hitachi camrecorder, but it doesn't fit the product. Not please at all.	negative
0	Wack, but he can do better	Z was at a low point when making this album. It was a bit of a cross over from Hard Knock Life (which was good, not great) to his next album. It feels as though he just put this out so the fanbase wouldn't forget about him. The Dre song (watch me) and It's Hot are pretty good. That's about it. But, as we see later, the Blueprint was well worth the wait and the two mediocre releases before it.	negative
1	No internet connection needed	This game has been one of my favorite games since its release.Please do not be detered by the "internet required" review as I have played this game with and without an internet connection with no problems at all.... unless you want to play the player made mods, and play online with other people... it is NOT necessary to be connected to the net if you only want to play through the single player campaigns... which, by the way combined with all the expansions is easily over 100 hours of game play.To this day this game is one of my favorites, that I still play regularly, and I eagerly await Neverwinter Nights 2.	positive
1	Great Quick Reference	Being new to the market, and now a full time Registered Representative, this little book was quite helpful, Hugo took vacation, glad he lent it to me, Thanks Hugo. Now I am buying 3 more. One for me and two more for gifts for friends about to attempt the 7.	positive
0	Contains SONY DRM Sofware --- Do not buy	This CD contains compromising a DRM rootkit which can greatly affect the Windows operating system. Do not buy.	negative
1	Good introductory real options book for beginner or manager	It is a good introductory book on real options targeted at the audience of managers rather than experienced financial practitioners. Its contents covered financial options, binomial pricing and Black-Scholes model where the last ten chapters or so are case studies dedicated to applications of real options where it gives readers an idea how real options can be applied in diverse industries.It makes a good and easy read for anyone who wants a quick flavor of real options without going through too much of the horrible maths that derivatives and real options seems to have !I personally enjoy reading it from cover to cover.	positive
1	A beatiful recording	How can a man have so much talent as a classical and pop singer. He simply has a powerful tenor voice and many pop voices with techniques to match.Why do people call Russell Watson the "people's tenor"? His voice is a welcome change for the average music listener. He has introduced to ordinary people who have little knowledge of classical music with performances which are of superior quality and, more important, communicates with his audience.Listen to this recording and you'll understand why everyone is raving about this singer.	positive
0	Oh, please!	A disappointing novel that reads as though a promising beginning was grafted onto its very message-heavy ending. The author has made no secret of his disdain and distrust of the United States, so this paranoid concoction should come as no surprise. In the anti-American atmosphere that prevails in certain circles in Europe, the idea of the U.S. staging a phony terrorist operation to justify its policies and to coerce European countries probably sounds pretty plausible. That someone with Cornewell's (Le Carre) smarts could offer up a story like this indicates just how far relations between the U.S. and its erstwhile allies have deteriorated. Food for serious thought, but not necessarily for the reasons intended.	negative
1	thank you for speedy reaction	I am in Japan.I am sutisfied with this product and parchase.thank you !	positive
1	Can't go wrong with Brita	I love my Brita filter. Of course, like everyone else I'm not thrilled about how much it ultimately costs when I have to pay for refills (like how much this will add up to in brita expenses by the end of the year), but I live in Los Angeles people. So if you're a desert inhabitor like myself then a brita filter is pretty much a necessity. Only thing about this model that I have to point out is that it is just big enough for someone single or even a couple, but definitely get a bigger one for a family or 4+. Brought this for a picnic one day and it was emptied out very quickly.	positive
0	Out of Balance	My previous Toro was the same model and lasted four years until the motor gave out (I would have given it 5 stars). I purchased a new one and immediately noticed this one had a vibration and more noise even at low speeds. I returned it for another of the same model and this one is better but still not as smooth and quiet as the old one was. I will be returning this one and looking for another brand.	negative
0	The motive behind the QBQ	The book reads easily, partly because most of what it has to offer almost everybody already knows. That being said, there are some worthwhile thoughts embedded in it, and it can be read in an hour, so there's not much to lose.My biggest problem with the book is that Miller's impliicit definition of "personal accountability" is not distinct from responsibility and therefore loses all of its power, especially as a business requirement. Yet, the subtitle of the book is "practicing personal accountability at work and in life", and, sorry, you can't practice accountability if you don't know what it is...Oh, and the phrase "personal accountability" is a redundancy -- there is no accountability other than that which is personal.	negative
0	Cheap For A Reason	I bought this brush just four months ago. Last week, the handle fell off. After seeing how it was attached, I'm surprised it lasted this long. There were just two tiny nails holding the handle to the brush, and those were so close together there may as well have only been one.Also, don't believe the product description that suggests the handle can be bent to the "desired shape." It's WOOD! It's evident whoever is trying to sell this hasn't even looked at their own product.	negative
0	maja perfume	I don't like this stuff at all!!! Not for me, its too woodsy for me, almost a mans type of cologne. Yuk!	negative
0	Nicky Nicolai	I never received this CD!!! I tried to contact the seller but no response. This seller is unreliable.	negative
0	poor quality	I have purchased a beginner violin before and the quality wasn't bad. Maybe it's just this model or this particular violin - the pegs are plastic and the violin gets out of tune quickly. It comes with two bows, both of them are horrible, even compared with my other beginner violin.I have to return this violin. Amazon's return service is super!	negative
0	Why oh why	I was so excited about the movie "The Cat in the Hat". Then I saw it. It was pitiful. I hated Mike Myers performance. Yes, his acting was fine but, was it really nessisary to put all the potty humer in a kids movie (big kids like me included)? I like Austin Powers but, this is Dr. Seus!!! I love Dr. Seus. I was so disappointed.Hollywood, please make kids movies that are kids movies. I will never ever buy this movie. Don't even rent it!!	negative
1	Open the barn door	I collect books for infants all year and think this is a pretty good story, but it is smaller than I expected.	positive
1	Red Mafiya	Books that claim to take readers inside a subject often fail to deliver. But Red Mafiya really does give you the inside scoop on the Russian mob in America. And unlike many investigative books that are densely written and difficult to read, this book is hard to put down. Friedman vividly reconstructs murder investigations, describes kidnapping attempts and recounts the how the FBI tracked down a criminal in Russia. It's not all blood and gore either. It made me laugh when one mobster insists on inspecting the boots of a rival gang in order to find the person who shot him. It made me feel sorry for hard-working police who are trying to combat the crime wave without the support needed to succeed. And it made me angry to see how many of these criminals are using the millions they've looted from the former Soviet Union to buy up expensive real estate in this country.	positive
1	Awesome!	Did exactly what I needed it to do. I changed out my double din radio about a year ago and this has held up and the little holder on the bottom is very useful as well. I like to keep my wallet and id badge inside the holder.	positive
1	A Wonderful Treasure to Anchor Your Heart in Christ	I had the pleasure of meeting this author/speaker, and joy sparkles from her eyes, though she's blind. This book is a treasure to anchor your heart to Christ. The book takes you on a life's journey filled with bumps in the road and roadblocks, but Jan Eckles overcomes each obstacle placed in her path by keeping her heart and faith anchored in Christ. Join Jan on her life's journey. Read about how she lost her sight at 30. Then, she lost something even more precious than her sight--her son. Her life has not been easy, but she has perserved and anchored her heart in Christ through all of her earthly trials and tribulations. She didn't work when she was sighted, but she's found her life's calling and is able to see more through insight than sighted people. Google Jan Eckles to enjoy her inspirational blog and newsletter.Barbara J. RobinsonAuthor/Educator/Freelance Writerhttp://barbarajrobinson.blogspot.com/	positive
1	Helpful	I had a rocky patch in a relationship and realized my own inability to change my thinking. This book helped me figure out large portions of my incorrect thinking and my behaviors have changed significantly already to my benefit. I'm considering making this short book a yearly read.I'm an atheist, but they come from a direction of Christianity. They mention it very early on. Don't let this scare you away! They are good people with amazing morals who back those morals up with stories from the bible rather than take the words of the bible as the laws to living life.The great thing is that they don't claim their words will fit every relationship, but looking back on my relationship most of their words fit most situations in my past! However, for me, there was only one thing, no more, which wouldn't have applied to me.Give it a whirl!	positive
0	Ignorant	This is awful. Why would you want to buy this? I love taking back sunday they are probably my favorite band so why take theyre songs and ruin them? If you want to hear good taking back sunday songs then listen to theyre cds and forget that this even exists.	negative
1	The only source you need	When we had the germ of an idea for a new company, I explored many sources for business plans including many computer CD progams. By comparison, others books generated more confusion than lucidity. Using Dummies as a template, we developed a great business plan that reflected exactly our challenges, prospects, and a road map for getting THERE. Save yourself time and money. Stick with this Dummies guide. R. Kingston	positive
0	This movie is cheap boring,childish and tragic dont buy it !	I am sorry I bought this movie! The acting is very bad,the quality of the filming is very poor. The story line is totally crap. This is obviously a trip into Alexis Arquette's narcistic childish fantasy.... like grow up!. The title of the movie is great, thats what sucked me in.The film quality is "home movie" quality, the DVD and jacket look like it was "knocked up" on someones home computor. The dialogue is so imature and very unfunny,a couple of two year olds dressed in mommy's clothes could have done better. Destined for the trash can Im afraid! Dont buy it and waste your money. Dont say I didnt warn you.The money spent making this movie is a complete waste, Id rather give the money spent making and producing this movie to homeless bums.C.Redding Australia	negative
0	Why did I read this book?	This book is about a boy a dog and Chaplin Stuart. The boy is stuck in the middle of a war, the dog is glorified to the level of sainthood, and Chaplin Stuart always knows the right thing to say and how to keep the book corny. This book tries to present life lessons for children to live by in a very unoriginal way. If you want to teach your kids something read them the Bible not Dog Jack.	negative
0	Rather dissapointing.	Well I'd lie if I said other-wise. I like almost all of the Val Kilmer movies except this one. It sort of dragged, and wern't very happy durring the whole thing. It's a drama I know, but I guess I was dissapionted. It was dark and gloomy, and always raining. Of course that was a big part of the story but I hate drissles. I wont go so far as to say it was disgustingly boring, but it was close. Too close, so do what-ever, just don't say I didn't warn ya.	negative
1	Great purchase for a great price	I bought this playhouse for my 2 1/2 year old grandaughter. She loves it. So does her 9 year old brother and all their friends. It is so roomy that it's big enough to put in a childs table with chairs and a toy kitchen set and still have enough room to move around. It stores away easily and sets up in a snap. Certainly worth the money.	positive
1	Moving and Powerful	I read many books in the course of a year, but this was definitely among the best this year. The author did a fine job putting himself into the mind of Petey, sharing with readers what it's like to be locked away inside oneself as the result of an often misunderstood mental illness. Readers can't help but like Petey and want desperately for at least one character in the book to remain by his side. This book is a well-written eye-opener concerning human nature and the unvarnished reactions many of us have to those who are different from the mainstream population. This is a YA novel full of heart and lessons to carry forward. A must read.	positive
0	Amazon Kindle	Whether or not it's fair, I am really sorry I purchased the Kindle for my wife. We can never get a wireless signal, it took days to register, and now we can't use it as we can't get online or connect with Amazon to buy books. The cellular coverage at our home is 5/5 bars with Bell, but the Kindle can't pick up any signal. I'm sure the Kindle itself is great, but without connectivity, it is useless.I hope to contact Amazon at some time to see if I can return the product.	negative
1	workcrew gloves	These gloves are great and fit my longer fingers without all the bulk in the palm. You have the ability to pick up small items because the finger tips are more sensitive and I like the elastic at the wrist as it makes putting on and taking off the gloves a snap. There is also a natural curvature in the grip, therefore reducing fatigue.	positive
1	well built, affordable quality.	use very little so far, but it appears well built, and a good value for the money.	positive
1	A good book to have.	A realize early that the book has potential.The content of the chapters are of high quality, even if I as a developer sometimes wanted more of the technical stuff (who doesn't ;-)?)But since the goal for the book is to focus on the whole picture and ties the hardware and the software design together in an easy understandable way I can highly recommend this book.I especially like the chapters about databases and the web service that described how to use the WSE kit from Microsoft in an easy manner. Thanks guys for the book!	positive
1	A must have travel tool.	I used this tool almost every time I ride. I just did a century ride and this came in handy so many times. I even used the chain breaker to fix a broken chain. A definite money well spent and very useful tool.	positive
0	Not what I expected	It was not what I was expecting. It was 95% reprints of old motorcycle reviews. If you read the reviews from 1969, 1970, 1971, etc. by the time you get to 1985 there is not much excitement. You might know year-to-year changes but not much else. Other than reviews there were two articles about rebuilding the top end.	negative
0	Should get an oscar for best screenplay	What an interesting film. Imagine, the CIA as villain! Sorry. Didn't mean to give the plot away.	negative
0	Having an agenda	The agenda of this film is perfectly clear: feminism and anti-clericalism. There is only one other such film in the Morse collection, and it too is a stinker. The plot in this case is highly complex and implausible. That's okay, but the female script writer should not have been quite so blatant with her propaganda. In short, this film is not worthy of the otherwise first class Morse series.	negative
0	Great idea but not so well done.	This series features Professor Greenburg's exploration into the world of opera. It would be a great idea, if it weren't for the fact that most of it consists of Professor Greenburg's conjecture. He dwells on Primitive music for far too long than is relevant for Opera. And he is quite the opinionated Professor with his ideas such as "the composer as dramatist" not the performer. And so forth. Every so often, he gets into the history and facts that make Opera interesting. But for far too much of time, he simply conjectures and I found myself disagreeing with most of his conjectures. Even though, I'm an admirer of Opera.	negative
0	Not so great at all!	People, the cable merely worked. It is well made and it did transmit the sound signal but the input signal was very low using a Shure SM-58 with a MacBook Pro 17" mid 2010. If you need to record with a microphone, you'll need an external audio interface with a good mic preamp in order to plug the microphone to it. The preamp will increase the mic signal, and you'll be able to get a good sound signal in your recording application.	negative
0	Nice 'til it dies	I really liked this compressor for the first year and a half. It was easy to move around or load into the truck and worked well enough for my needs. Then the regulator started leaking... The nearest authorized service center was 75 miles away so DeWalt sent me an O-ring kit. Two weeks later, when the kit finally arrived, and after 10 minutes to install it I was back in business.It's been less than a year since replacing the o-rings and I think the motor has burned up :( I AM REALLY DISSAPOINTED IN THIS COMPRESSOR! For the price I could have bought 2 of another brand.If you buy this to air up the kids bicycle tires, you will love it! If you have work to do, this would be a poor choice.	negative
0	YAWN!!	After 200 pages (out of total of 555), I'm not sure that I will finish this book. After the first 50 or so pages, I kept waiting for something to happen, and it never does. It's just page after page of description, narrative and characterized speech that almost feels like I keep reading the same thing over and over again. I began to wonder if I didn't like it because it doesn't revolve around classics students like The Secret History did. But now I realize that I don't like it because it's just plain boring and not even very well written. Borrow it from the library before you buy it thinking that this one will be as good as The Secret History.	negative
0	OK	I did not try many of these products, but I based this one on the reviews. It is OK, but should be a $20 price tag since it constantly disconnents and hard to use. Not impressed.	negative
0	crap	Poorly manufactured and fell off the wall within the hour of hanging. It wasn't that the adhesives didn't stick to the wall, they didn't stick to the product it came with. Junk.	negative
1	Dog Treats	Excellent service! Excellent Price! Excellent Product! I can't keep the dog off the phone telling her friends how much she is enjoying her Best Buddy Treats! I have a very happy dog!	positive
1	Fabulous, fun colors. Disappointingly small side plates	LOVE the colors of this set, which I've been advised is discontinued through the company's outlet stores.Be warned however that the bread/butter plate is SMALLER than what I expected. They are about 6 3/4" across compared with the plates that I thought they would came (those measured a little over 8 1/2").Still this is a great, fun set to use to mix/match colors and patterns. I am mixing with (discontinued) citrus (yellow bands), memphis (although the colors in Memphis are not as bright as these) and urban red.	positive
1	Easy to read and to understand	The Reuters Financial Series allow almost every person with a simple knowledge of economy and mathematics to understand the stock market. It contains a lot of informaton and practical examples and the graphical look allow us an easy understanding of the topics. The only problem is the exercises and the examples are based on the "Reuters Markets" program, so if you dont't have it the book becomes a little useless.	positive
1	It was a wonderful story to prepare a child for school. I r	I read this book to my oldest daughter before she entered school. She loved it and we cannt find our original copy. She wants to read it to her children.	positive
1	Best effort yet!!!	I can't believe the bad reviews that some have posted about this album. Overall, the cd is solid top to bottom. There isn't a weak track on the entire cd. If you like the other albums by RRB, you'll like this one, as well. A lot of Texans get ticked that they've gone mainstream, but they are still the same.	positive
0	This is a F oil filter wrench - F must be for FAIL	The description says that this fits 65/67mm 14 flute filters - so - I bought a new filter, counted the flutes and measured before ordering.The filter measures 66mm across the flats, and has 14 flutes so this should fit easily - it didn't - I grabbed my calipers, this wrench measures 65mm across the flats - there's no way this will fit the 67 mm filter it's advertised as fitting.If I could give it zero stars I would.Update - new filter in hand, I went shopping for a wrench - AutoZone had this wrench, and it did not fit (so that rules out a defective wrench), Advance had several wrenches on display, none of which fit, and when asked, the NAPA counterman woalked over to the display rack, spun it around and picked out one - opened that package and it fit like a glove.Interestingly enough - the NAPA package says on the card - 65/67 mm 14 flute oil filter cap wrench.	negative
1	Unbelievablly true!	I ordered this because it was an Amazon lightening deal and because my son is about to move. There were good reviews so thought I'd take a chance.Today I helped a friend move. It was unbelievably easy lifting the heavy appliances with this devise. We didn't have a regular dolly for the refrig, stove, washer and dryer and didn't need one because we had this shoulder dolly. Do not hesitate to get one of these. It almost makes moving items fun (okay, don't believe that). But do believe this: You'll lift with your legs, save your back, and find your efforts are doubled. I help friends a lot with their moves, so I think this may help my reputation. I'm 56, diabetic, and this devise works so well, that I thought it fair to give it a glowing review.	positive
0	So sensitive I can't use it	My condo unit had this alarm installed when I moved it. It was located at least 25 feet from the kitchen, around a corner and down a hallway, where there is plenty of air circulation. But it was so overly sensitive that it would go off nearly every time I used the cooktop. Never mind that nothing was smoking. It would even go off when I used the oven to bake a cake, for god's sake! When it went off while I was gently sauteeing mushrooms, on the back burner with the vent fan already on, I had had enough. In an apartment with no proximity to a furnace or a kerosene heater, I am not concerned about CO. And if every time I cook I have to open every window in the place and put the vent fan on full blast, I'll do without. An alarm that goes off all the time is as bad, or worse, than no alarm at all. I pulled it out and removed the battery.	negative

1	Fatherhood	This book is easy to read and has well chosen photographs, quotes, and boxed information. The focus is on the experience of fatherhood, feelings, and emotions. It is assumed that the baby will be breastfed and he gives the best advice on how fathers can simulate breastfeeding without bottle feeding that I have been able to find. The author believes that a man can choose what kind of father he will be. He introduces the concept of "fatherman." In order for men to move back into the family, our culture needs to reconnect masculinity and fatherhood. Young men need to see fatherhood, not paternity, as the fullest experience of manhood. Masculinity has everything to do with fathering.	positive

He makes no decisions, whines and interacts with predictable 1 dimensional characters.	negative
1	Fun Music For Spongebob Fans!	If you've ever enjoyed a Spongebob episode, you're sure to love this album. It contains all the songs that are heard in the show (up to when the CD was released). If you have kids who are fans, this album is a must. My kids can't get enough Spongebob, so when there are no shows on at the time, they will listen to music and be satisfied (two of my 3 kids have their own discman so they can take their music EVERYWHERE).

1	A welcome return to form	Ok, some of Keith Reid's lyrics are clumsy and obvious, and a few of the production touches backfire (I agree with the previous reviewer: lose the electric piano.) But, boy, that piano/organ sound covers a multitude of sins. Brooker's voice sounds great, the songs are mostly very good-to-great, bridging Shine on Brightly majesty with very convincing Exotic Birds-style barrelhouse rockers. As good as I hoped for, considerably better than I expected.	positive
0	Everyone but Charlie...	Recently bought this DVD, excited to catch any available glimpse of jazz guitar innovator Charlie Christian in action. Watched the whole thing, and I'm still waiting. If this "movie" is any indicator, there must not be any film footage of him in existence. This video is a mere 31 minutes long, and consists of a whole slew of known and unknown people who knew or admired Charlie, each putting in their two cents' worth (if that). In short, all talk and NO ACTION. This video might as well have been a book. The closest we get to "The Genius of Charlie Christian" are four audio tracks selectable from the bonus material---c'mon, any audio CD beats that! While some of the interviewees are interesting, jazz guitar veteran Herb Ellis for example, others are nearly incoherent and some are clearly reciting their "lines" from a script! So, don't waste your money folks. If anybody knows of a video with any real live footage of C.C. playing, please post info here!	negative

0	Oh, come on. Who cares?	I finished the Club Dumas and I'm wondering why anyone cares. The plot is ridiculous. Some greedy and somewhat sleazy book merchant chases all over the Iberian peninsula and France for two books that will supposedly summon the Devil while a bunch of Eurosnobs plot to keep a handwritten chapter of a Dumas book from public scrutiny - all the while belonging to a club that reprints ancient dime novels? Minute details about book collecting overwhelmed me with tears of boredom. There's the stereotypical fetching young woman who all we know about is that she uses a name from a Sherlock Holmes story and is a kick boxer of some talent because she can beat up an actor? Meanwhile, the evil "pay no attention to the man behind the curtains" guy surfaces only briefly at beginning an end. And if I read the word "apocryphal" one more time I would have puked. The ending, especially the last page, is so trite I would have expected it to come from a John Grisham novel. And I LIKE John Grisham.	negative
0	Its Hideous	I've used a fair number of travel guides, and this one is destined for the trash long before I take my trip. I find it extremely user UNfriendly, and short on lots of vital information. While there are some nice maps and some pieces of good data, the organization is appalling. Instead of a division by regions, it is in encyclopedia fashion -- alphabetical place names. Places that get 3 stars (their top rating -- must see) on some of the maps don't show up in the index or as a place heading. When you find something interesting in the text, you have to wonder, where is it in the country? Good luck finding further data. Prices and estimated costs? Forget it -- there are none. I suppose that reduces their costs of updating versions. Data on hotels and restaurants? No -- you have to buy Michelin's separate book, their "red guide." Meaningful information on any form of travel other than by car? Not here. Trying to plan a trip with this guide? Lots of luck.	negative

0	Misleading title	Anybody expecting a CD full of impassioned, gospel influenced vocal intensity will be sorely disappointed by this misleadingly titled compilation. The term Deep Soul was originally invented - by British critic and fan Dave Godin - to differentiate the darker, more emotional side of soul from the lighter, pop influenced soul that was in vogue at the time. Few of the songs on this CD come close to Deep Soul, and at least one (Disco Tex) is merely a very poor disco record, and doesn't belong on any compilation of soul music. What it does have are some very good mid-tempo grooves which are undeniably soulful, but lack the raw emotional content of the best Deep Soul. For anyone wanting a good compilation of Deep Soul check out Dave Godins Deep Soul Treasures on Kent, or try to get hold of The Deepest Soul vols 1 and 2 on the UK Goldmine label. Ignore this - it is NOT Deep Soul.	negative

DISAPPOINTING

THIS ALBUM FAILS WITH TOO LONG OF INSTUMENTAL SECTIONS IN MANY SONGS. THAT MAKES THESE SONGS VERY DULL. OF COURSE, "LIBERATION" IS COMPLETELY INSTRUMENTAL AND VERY BORING. "BEGINNINGS" AND "QUESTIONS 67 & 68" ARE THE ONLY SONGS HERE THAT ARE EVEN THE LEAST BIT MEMORABLE. MOST OF THESE SONGS JUST DON'T GO ANYWHERE. THANK GOODNESS CETERA, WITH SOME HELP FROM DAVID FOSTER, EVENTUALLY GOT THIS BAND RIGHT WITH HIS UNERRING SENSE OF MELODY AND SONGCRAFT. THAT CREATED THE NEW AND 100 TIMES BETTER CHICAGO.

That one broke too. It is unacceptable for a $300-$400 vacuum to be so flimsy. This vacuum is cheaply made and should have a price that reflects that.

I laughed, I Cried!

This is the first book I've read from this author, and I have to say I found it to be a mixed bag. I really enjoyed Thomas and especially Hairy (who I think, stole the show). But sometimes the action left a bit to be believed. I think the author shouldn't have let on who the killer was so early, but I did thoroughly enjoy the story, and really liked the intense scenes between Thomas and Emma. I look forward to reading more of this author's work.

And why (the f**k) is Lindsay being compared to Kelly?

I have heard this album. I will tell you now, the first two songs are great, the rest are rubbish. Kelly Clarkson is a beautiful girl and singer, and Lindsay is nowhere near as good. So, people who are saying this is similar to Kelly's music, music or voice wise, get your ears checked, and while you're at it, you probably need a reality check soon. And everyone likes it because boo hoo she talks about love-hate relationships between her and her father. Kelly's album is much better! And more personal!Remember, I told you I listened to this. It's garbage, apart from the first two efforts.

Too much Barney talking and not enough dancing

There are some good scenes in the DVD showing toddlers and older kids dancing. However, most of the DVD is Barney talking. I wanted more dancing tunes, and more dancing. I wanted to have the little guy see other kids dancing to music. Mostly what you get here is Barney. I would imagine that the owners of Barney are always trying to sell the Barney franchise. However, what I wanted is not the promotion of Barney but the promotion of dancing for kids. This video was not very helpful for getting the little guy to move and dance. Too bad, since Barney has the money to produce excellent videos. This one falls short.

The disc is the original released one sans the pan and scan version on the flip side, what a ripoff.

will be their one hit wonder

I love Underoath, with the exception of this record. it was a little too mainstrem for me. Lost In The Sound, the newest album, is Underoath doing what they do best.This album reflects exactly where the band was at the time, without a lead vocalist and without direction caused by rushing to the studio and throwing 9 songs together. Aaron, the drummer, sang on most of this and new vocalist Spencer threw in screams afterwards.this would have been good as Aaron's solo album, but not as Underoath.

If you are even slightly mad for Tadd....

This album contains what is arguably the best recent recording of the much-recorded "If You Could See Me Now" and on that basis alone is a great reason to own this CD. Also, the music has a very period-authentic feel, engendered by the chosen voicings. I have been collecting Dameron "tribute" recordings for many years and this qualifies as the best or second-best. This is a thoughtful creation and a worthy appreciation of the composer.

Great camera

I bought this 2 weeks ago. It was very easy to use right out of the box (well after the battery charges). I would have liked to get a digital camera that takes AA's because they are easy to find if your battery runs out. I took this camera to Disney on Ice - even though it is very dark in the arena it took great pictures. I put the software cd into my computer it installed in about 2 seconds,..I hooked the camera up to the USB port on the computer and the pictures were instantly on my computer. I took the pictures I wanted off the memory stick took them to the grocery store and had them print them out. Couldn't be easier. NOTE: You CANNOT use a memory card with this camera. I made the mistake and bought a 1GB only to find out I needed a memory stick duo (about the same price as a memory card). Overall I love this camera...very small fit right in my purse. The shutter speed isn't great but better than most digital cameras. Also, I paid alot less at Best Buy for this.

Horrible Treatment of Dedicated Fans

Why on Earth would the UFC treat their dedicated fans like this? I too have collected all the Pride events and UFC events via DVD over the last few years. I want 57 only as I already spent good money on the other two UFC DVDs. Even on their website they don't offer 57 separately. It makes no sense. It's like saying, hey all you guys that love us and pay for our DVD events, if you want 57, you have to buy two duplicates you already own and waste your money. It really bugs me. If anyone knows where to get a UFC57 DVD. Please let me know. I'm not even going to buy from the UFC website anymore after this.

As mentioned by other reviewers, this DVD is just horrible to watch because of the absurd amount that the cameras cut away to another scene every few seconds. If you want to watch a guitar solo or anything else for that matter to absorb any details, forget it! The editor(s) didn't do the Scorpions justice. The music is good, but since this is a DVD and not a CD, I'm giving two stars for the spazoid video technique.

misleading and disappointing

I eagerly awaited a title that professed to have dozens of poses and hundreds of photographs only to find that the CD-ROM includes only 18 poses total, and does not even include all of the poses featured in the book. The resolution is low quality (especially when zooming in,) and there is no PRINT functionality. The work itself is a good idea, but one that has obviously been developed before its authors had adequate resources to produce it well. The "music" and "tutorial" sections are completely irrelevant and actually somewhat annoying. I had no interest at all in the author's personal life or his "8 minute improvised guitar piece" dedicated to someone I had never heard of. Better to wait for a high-tech agency to release a good product of this nature than to waste money on this marginally useful CD.

Z was at a low point when making this album. It was a bit of a cross over from Hard Knock Life (which was good, not great) to his next album. It feels as though he just put this out so the fanbase wouldn't forget about him. The Dre song (watch me) and It's Hot are pretty good. That's about it.

Good introductory real options book for beginner or manager

It is a good introductory book on real options targeted at the audience of managers rather than experienced financial practitioners. Its contents covered financial options, binomial pricing and Black-Scholes model where the last ten chapters or so are case studies dedicated to applications of real options where it gives readers an idea how real options can be applied in diverse industries.It makes a good and easy read for anyone who wants a quick flavor of real options without going through too much of the horrible maths that derivatives and real options seems to have !I personally enjoy reading it from cover to cover.

A beatiful recording

How can a man have so much talent as a classical and pop singer. He simply has a powerful tenor voice and many pop voices with techniques to match.Why do people call Russell Watson the "people's tenor"? His voice is a welcome change for the average music listener. He has introduced to ordinary people who have little knowledge of classical music with performances which are of superior quality and, more important, communicates with his audience.Listen to this recording and you'll understand why everyone is raving about this singer.

Oh, please!

A disappointing novel that reads as though a promising beginning was grafted onto its very message-heavy ending. The author has made no secret of his disdain and distrust of the United States, so this paranoid concoction should come as no surprise. In the anti-American atmosphere that prevails in certain circles in Europe, the idea of the U.S. staging a phony terrorist operation to justify its policies and to coerce European countries probably sounds pretty plausible. That someone with Cornewell's (Le Carre) smarts could offer up a story like this indicates just how far relations between the U.S. and its erstwhile allies have deteriorated. Food for serious thought, but not necessarily for the reasons intended.

Can't go wrong with Brita

I love my Brita filter. Of course, like everyone else I'm not thrilled about how much it ultimately costs when I have to pay for refills (like how much this will add up to in brita expenses by the end of the year), but I live in Los Angeles people. So if you're a desert inhabitor like myself then a brita filter is pretty much a necessity. Only thing about this model that I have to point out is that it is just big enough for someone single or even a couple, but definitely get a bigger one for a family or 4+. Brought this for a picnic one day and it was emptied out very quickly.

The motive behind the QBQ

The book reads easily, partly because most of what it has to offer almost everybody already knows. That being said, there are some worthwhile thoughts embedded in it, and it can be read in an hour, so there's not much to lose.My biggest problem with the book is that Miller's impliicit definition of "personal accountability" is not distinct from responsibility and therefore loses all of its power, especially as a business requirement. Yet, the subtitle of the book is "practicing personal accountability at work and in life", and, sorry, you can't practice accountability if you don't know what it is...Oh, and the phrase "personal accountability" is a redundancy -- there is no accountability other than that which is personal.

Cheap For A Reason

I bought this brush just four months ago. Last week, the handle fell off. After seeing how it was attached, I'm surprised it lasted this long. There were just two tiny nails holding the handle to the brush, and those were so close together there may as well have only been one.Also, don't believe the product description that suggests the handle can be bent to the "desired shape." It's WOOD! It's evident whoever is trying to sell this hasn't even looked at their own product.

Red Mafiya

Books that claim to take readers inside a subject often fail to deliver. But Red Mafiya really does give you the inside scoop on the Russian mob in America. And unlike many investigative books that are densely written and difficult to read, this book is hard to put down. Friedman vividly reconstructs murder investigations, describes kidnapping attempts and recounts the how the FBI tracked down a criminal in Russia. It's not all blood and gore either. It made me laugh when one mobster insists on inspecting the boots of a rival gang in order to find the person who shot him. It made me feel sorry for hard-working police who are trying to combat the crime wave without the support needed to succeed. And it made me angry to see how many of these criminals are using the millions they've looted from the former Soviet Union to buy up expensive real estate in this country.

A Wonderful Treasure to Anchor Your Heart in Christ

I had the pleasure of meeting this author/speaker, and joy sparkles from her eyes, though she's blind. This book is a treasure to anchor your heart to Christ. The book takes you on a life's journey filled with bumps in the road and roadblocks, but Jan Eckles overcomes each obstacle placed in her path by keeping her heart and faith anchored in Christ. Join Jan on her life's journey. Read about how she lost her sight at 30. Then, she lost something even more precious than her sight--her son. Her life has not been easy, but she has perserved and anchored her heart in Christ through all of her earthly trials and tribulations. She didn't work when she was sighted, but she's found her life's calling and is able to see more through insight than sighted people. Google Jan Eckles to enjoy her inspirational blog and newsletter.Barbara J. RobinsonAuthor/Educator/Freelance Writerhttp://barbarajrobinson.blogspot.com/

Helpful

I had a rocky patch in a relationship and realized my own inability to change my thinking. This book helped me figure out large portions of my incorrect thinking and my behaviors have changed significantly already to my benefit. I'm considering making this short book a yearly read.I'm an atheist, but they come from a direction of Christianity. They mention it very early on. Don't let this scare you away! They are good people with amazing morals who back those morals up with stories from the bible rather than take the words of the bible as the laws to living life.The great thing is that they don't claim their words will fit every relationship, but looking back on my relationship most of their words fit most situations in my past! However, for me, there was only one thing, no more, which wouldn't have applied to me.Give it a whirl!

This is awful. Why would you want to buy this? I love taking back sunday they are probably my favorite band so why take theyre songs and ruin them? If you want to hear good taking back sunday songs then listen to theyre cds and forget that this even exists.

The only source you need

When we had the germ of an idea for a new company, I explored many sources for business plans including many computer CD progams. By comparison, others books generated more confusion than lucidity. Using Dummies as a template, we developed a great business plan that reflected exactly our challenges, prospects, and a road map for getting THERE. Save yourself time and money. Stick with this Dummies guide. R. Kingston

This movie is cheap boring,childish and tragic dont buy it !

I am sorry I bought this movie! The acting is very bad,the quality of the filming is very poor. The story line is totally crap. This is obviously a trip into Alexis Arquette's narcistic childish fantasy.... like grow up!. The title of the movie is great, thats what sucked me in.The film quality is "home movie" quality, the DVD and jacket look like it was "knocked up" on someones home computor. The dialogue is so imature and very unfunny,a couple of two year olds dressed in mommy's clothes could have done better. Destined for the trash can Im afraid! Dont buy it and waste your money. Dont say I didnt warn you.The money spent making this movie is a complete waste, Id rather give the money spent making and producing this movie to homeless bums.C.Redding Australia

Why did I read this book?

This book is about a boy a dog and Chaplin Stuart. The boy is stuck in the middle of a war, the dog is glorified to the level of sainthood, and Chaplin Stuart always knows the right thing to say and how to keep the book corny. This book tries to present life lessons for children to live by in a very unoriginal way. If you want to teach your kids something read them the Bible not Dog Jack.

Rather dissapointing.

Well I'd lie if I said other-wise. I like almost all of the Val Kilmer movies except this one. It sort of dragged, and wern't very happy durring the whole thing. It's a drama I know, but I guess I was dissapionted. It was dark and gloomy, and always raining. Of course that was a big part of the story but I hate drissles. I wont go so far as to say it was disgustingly boring, but it was close. Too close, so do what-ever, just don't say I didn't warn ya.

Great purchase for a great price

I bought this playhouse for my 2 1/2 year old grandaughter. She loves it. So does her 9 year old brother and all their friends. It is so roomy that it's big enough to put in a childs table with chairs and a toy kitchen set and still have enough room to move around. It stores away easily and sets up in a snap. Certainly worth the money.

Moving and Powerful

I read many books in the course of a year, but this was definitely among the best this year. The author did a fine job putting himself into the mind of Petey, sharing with readers what it's like to be locked away inside oneself as the result of an often misunderstood mental illness. Readers can't help but like Petey and want desperately for at least one character in the book to remain by his side. This book is a well-written eye-opener concerning human nature and the unvarnished reactions many of us have to those who are different from the mainstream population. This is a YA novel full of heart and lessons to carry forward. A must read.

Amazon Kindle

Whether or not it's fair, I am really sorry I purchased the Kindle for my wife. We can never get a wireless signal, it took days to register, and now we can't use it as we can't get online or connect with Amazon to buy books. The cellular coverage at our home is 5/5 bars with Bell, but the Kindle can't pick up any signal. I'm sure the Kindle itself is great, but without connectivity, it is useless.I hope to contact Amazon at some time to see if I can return the product.

workcrew gloves

These gloves are great and fit my longer fingers without all the bulk in the palm. You have the ability to pick up small items because the finger tips are more sensitive and I like the elastic at the wrist as it makes putting on and taking off the gloves a snap. There is also a natural curvature in the grip, therefore reducing fatigue.

A good book to have.

A realize early that the book has potential.The content of the chapters are of high quality, even if I as a developer sometimes wanted more of the technical stuff (who doesn't ;-)?)But since the goal for the book is to focus on the whole picture and ties the hardware and the software design together in an easy understandable way I can highly recommend this book.I especially like the chapters about databases and the web service that described how to use the WSE kit from Microsoft in an easy manner. Thanks guys for the book!

Not what I expected

It was not what I was expecting. It was 95% reprints of old motorcycle reviews. If you read the reviews from 1969, 1970, 1971, etc. by the time you get to 1985 there is not much excitement. You might know year-to-year changes but not much else. Other than reviews there were two articles about rebuilding the top end.

Having an agenda

The agenda of this film is perfectly clear: feminism and anti-clericalism. There is only one other such film in the Morse collection, and it too is a stinker. The plot in this case is highly complex and implausible. That's okay, but the female script writer should not have been quite so blatant with her propaganda. In short, this film is not worthy of the otherwise first class Morse series.

Great idea but not so well done.

This series features Professor Greenburg's exploration into the world of opera. It would be a great idea, if it weren't for the fact that most of it consists of Professor Greenburg's conjecture. He dwells on Primitive music for far too long than is relevant for Opera. And he is quite the opinionated Professor with his ideas such as "the composer as dramatist" not the performer. And so forth. Every so often, he gets into the history and facts that make Opera interesting. But for far too much of time, he simply conjectures and I found myself disagreeing with most of his conjectures. Even though, I'm an admirer of Opera.

Not so great at all!

People, the cable merely worked. It is well made and it did transmit the sound signal but the input signal was very low using a Shure SM-58 with a MacBook Pro 17" mid 2010. If you need to record with a microphone, you'll need an external audio interface with a good mic preamp in order to plug the microphone to it. The preamp will increase the mic signal, and you'll be able to get a good sound signal in your recording application.

Nice 'til it dies

I really liked this compressor for the first year and a half. It was easy to move around or load into the truck and worked well enough for my needs. Then the regulator started leaking... The nearest authorized service center was 75 miles away so DeWalt sent me an O-ring kit. Two weeks later, when the kit finally arrived, and after 10 minutes to install it I was back in business.It's been less than a year since replacing the o-rings and I think the motor has burned up :( I AM REALLY DISSAPOINTED IN THIS COMPRESSOR! For the price I could have bought 2 of another brand.If you buy this to air up the kids bicycle tires, you will love it! If you have work to do, this would be a poor choice.

YAWN!!

After 200 pages (out of total of 555), I'm not sure that I will finish this book. After the first 50 or so pages, I kept waiting for something to happen, and it never does. It's just page after page of description, narrative and characterized speech that almost feels like I keep reading the same thing over and over again. I began to wonder if I didn't like it because it doesn't revolve around classics students like The Secret History did. But now I realize that I don't like it because it's just plain boring and not even very well written. Borrow it from the library before you buy it thinking that this one will be as good as The Secret History.

Fabulous, fun colors. Disappointingly small side plates

LOVE the colors of this set, which I've been advised is discontinued through the company's outlet stores.Be warned however that the bread/butter plate is SMALLER than what I expected. They are about 6 3/4" across compared with the plates that I thought they would came (those measured a little over 8 1/2").Still this is a great, fun set to use to mix/match colors and patterns. I am mixing with (discontinued) citrus (yellow bands), memphis (although the colors in Memphis are not as bright as these) and urban red.

Easy to read and to understand

The Reuters Financial Series allow almost every person with a simple knowledge of economy and mathematics to understand the stock market. It contains a lot of informaton and practical examples and the graphical look allow us an easy understanding of the topics. The only problem is the exercises and the examples are based on the "Reuters Markets" program, so if you dont't have it the book becomes a little useless.

This is a F oil filter wrench - F must be for FAIL

The description says that this fits 65/67mm 14 flute filters - so - I bought a new filter, counted the flutes and measured before ordering.The filter measures 66mm across the flats, and has 14 flutes so this should fit easily - it didn't - I grabbed my calipers, this wrench measures 65mm across the flats - there's no way this will fit the 67 mm filter it's advertised as fitting.If I could give it zero stars I would.Update - new filter in hand, I went shopping for a wrench - AutoZone had this wrench, and it did not fit (so that rules out a defective wrench), Advance had several wrenches on display, none of which fit, and when asked, the NAPA counterman woalked over to the display rack, spun it around and picked out one - opened that package and it fit like a glove.Interestingly enough - the NAPA package says on the card - 65/67 mm 14 flute oil filter cap wrench.

Unbelievablly true!

I ordered this because it was an Amazon lightening deal and because my son is about to move. There were good reviews so thought I'd take a chance.Today I helped a friend move. It was unbelievably easy lifting the heavy appliances with this devise. We didn't have a regular dolly for the refrig, stove, washer and dryer and didn't need one because we had this shoulder dolly. Do not hesitate to get one of these. It almost makes moving items fun (okay, don't believe that). But do believe this: You'll lift with your legs, save your back, and find your efforts are doubled. I help friends a lot with their moves, so I think this may help my reputation. I'm 56, diabetic, and this devise works so well, that I thought it fair to give it a glowing review.

So sensitive I can't use it

My condo unit had this alarm installed when I moved it. It was located at least 25 feet from the kitchen, around a corner and down a hallway, where there is plenty of air circulation. But it was so overly sensitive that it would go off nearly every time I used the cooktop. Never mind that nothing was smoking. It would even go off when I used the oven to bake a cake, for god's sake! When it went off while I was gently sauteeing mushrooms, on the back burner with the vent fan already on, I had had enough. In an apartment with no proximity to a furnace or a kerosene heater, I am not concerned about CO. And if every time I cook I have to open every window in the place and put the vent fan on full blast, I'll do without. An alarm that goes off all the time is as bad, or worse, than no alarm at all. I pulled it out and removed the battery.

Fatherhood

This book is easy to read and has well chosen photographs, quotes, and boxed information. The focus is on the experience of fatherhood, feelings, and emotions. It is assumed that the baby will be breastfed and he gives the best advice on how fathers can simulate breastfeeding without bottle feeding that I have been able to find. The author believes that a man can choose what kind of father he will be. He introduces the concept of "fatherman." In order for men to move back into the family, our culture needs to reconnect masculinity and fatherhood. Young men need to see fatherhood, not paternity, as the fullest experience of manhood. Masculinity has everything to do with fathering.

Bad plot, bad characters

The heart of the book is the big conspiracy, which is dull as sand. Nobody cares about something that. If it were true, congress would be outraged and that's about. By the middle of the book, I can't stand the main character, who seems to missed the growth process for his back bone. He makes no decisions, whines and interacts with predictable 1 dimensional characters.

Fun Music For Spongebob Fans!

If you've ever enjoyed a Spongebob episode, you're sure to love this album. It contains all the songs that are heard in the show (up to when the CD was released). If you have kids who are fans, this album is a must. My kids can't get enough Spongebob, so when there are no shows on at the time, they will listen to music and be satisfied (two of my 3 kids have their own discman so they can take their music EVERYWHERE). I would also recommend the "Spongebob Squarepants Movie" soundtrack.

Great story, terrible printing (beware S&P)

The story is terrific, classic Conrad. The printing is rubbish though (I am referring to the version published by S&P; with the sandy shore on the cover). The font size is miniscule - almost impossible to read - while the book's title is printed in an enormous font at the top of every page. It looks like a PDF gone wrong.Get the book, but from a decent publisher. There is no way I'm buying another S&P; product.

A welcome return to form

Ok, some of Keith Reid's lyrics are clumsy and obvious, and a few of the production touches backfire (I agree with the previous reviewer: lose the electric piano.) But, boy, that piano/organ sound covers a multitude of sins. Brooker's voice sounds great, the songs are mostly very good-to-great, bridging Shine on Brightly majesty with very convincing Exotic Birds-style barrelhouse rockers. As good as I hoped for, considerably better than I expected.

Everyone but Charlie...

Recently bought this DVD, excited to catch any available glimpse of jazz guitar innovator Charlie Christian in action. Watched the whole thing, and I'm still waiting. If this "movie" is any indicator, there must not be any film footage of him in existence. This video is a mere 31 minutes long, and consists of a whole slew of known and unknown people who knew or admired Charlie, each putting in their two cents' worth (if that). In short, all talk and NO ACTION. This video might as well have been a book. The closest we get to "The Genius of Charlie Christian" are four audio tracks selectable from the bonus material---c'mon, any audio CD beats that! While some of the interviewees are interesting, jazz guitar veteran Herb Ellis for example, others are nearly incoherent and some are clearly reciting their "lines" from a script! So, don't waste your money folks. If anybody knows of a video with any real live footage of C.C. playing, please post info here!

Oh, come on. Who cares?

I finished the Club Dumas and I'm wondering why anyone cares. The plot is ridiculous. Some greedy and somewhat sleazy book merchant chases all over the Iberian peninsula and France for two books that will supposedly summon the Devil while a bunch of Eurosnobs plot to keep a handwritten chapter of a Dumas book from public scrutiny - all the while belonging to a club that reprints ancient dime novels? Minute details about book collecting overwhelmed me with tears of boredom. There's the stereotypical fetching young woman who all we know about is that she uses a name from a Sherlock Holmes story and is a kick boxer of some talent because she can beat up an actor? Meanwhile, the evil "pay no attention to the man behind the curtains" guy surfaces only briefly at beginning an end. And if I read the word "apocryphal" one more time I would have puked. The ending, especially the last page, is so trite I would have expected it to come from a John Grisham novel. And I LIKE John Grisham.

Its Hideous

I've used a fair number of travel guides, and this one is destined for the trash long before I take my trip. I find it extremely user UNfriendly, and short on lots of vital information. While there are some nice maps and some pieces of good data, the organization is appalling. Instead of a division by regions, it is in encyclopedia fashion -- alphabetical place names. Places that get 3 stars (their top rating -- must see) on some of the maps don't show up in the index or as a place heading. When you find something interesting in the text, you have to wonder, where is it in the country? Good luck finding further data. Prices and estimated costs? Forget it -- there are none. I suppose that reduces their costs of updating versions. Data on hotels and restaurants? No -- you have to buy Michelin's separate book, their "red guide." Meaningful information on any form of travel other than by car? Not here. Trying to plan a trip with this guide? Lots of luck.

Misleading title

Anybody expecting a CD full of impassioned, gospel influenced vocal intensity will be sorely disappointed by this misleadingly titled compilation. The term Deep Soul was originally invented - by British critic and fan Dave Godin - to differentiate the darker, more emotional side of soul from the lighter, pop influenced soul that was in vogue at the time. Few of the songs on this CD come close to Deep Soul, and at least one (Disco Tex) is merely a very poor disco record, and doesn't belong on any compilation of soul music. What it does have are some very good mid-tempo grooves which are undeniably soulful, but lack the raw emotional content of the best Deep Soul. For anyone wanting a good compilation of Deep Soul check out Dave Godins Deep Soul Treasures on Kent, or try to get hold of The Deepest Soul vols 1 and 2 on the UK Goldmine label. Ignore this - it is NOT Deep Soul.
