Many pitfalls
This unit is ok for just putting your iPod in and playing music over the speakers.The docking pass though does not work for USB on XP. XP will not recognize it though the docking station, but if you take the iPod off the docking station and connect direct it works fine. This does not allow you to leave the iPod in the charger while connected to your PC. At least with XP and USB.Also if you get one of those remote control units that goes on top, you cannot control the volume though the remote, you must use the volume control on the base unit.

Why keep wasting money on producing this garbage???
I watched maybe the first 30 minutes of this movie and was very disappointed. I'm glad I rented it first. I don't recall laughing at all while watching this horrible film. Cedric is capable of way better material than this. I just couldn't finish this movie it was horrible. Like another flick i seen a couple months back "My baby's Daddy" with Eddie Griffin. Who's bright idea was that? I'm sick of these new black films with their overplayed stereotypes. ITS NOT FUNNY ANYMORE

Bleeding eyes and more
This is a true Fulci classic. A demented priest hangs himself in a church graveyard thus opening the gates of hell. Meanwhile a psychic, who has been buried alive and then saved, teams up with a poorly dressed American to find the priest, kill him, and close the gate.Although the film is filled with over-the-top acting and a flimsy script it is engaging and fun, probably due to the tons and tons of gore.If you like bleeding eyes, exploding brains, maggots, and more then this is the movie for you.

Poor Plot ! Poor Research
I bought this book after based on the hype surrounding Da vinci Code. Back then the subject matter appeared to be cool and the plot seemed promising.This book falters on many counts1) There is very little of suspense.The author lets you in directly onto all the charecters line of thought .Mostly Its a childs play to guess whats coming up next.2) The technical facts in this book particularly towards the last few chapters are grossly incorrect. Dan brown either hasnt done enough research or does not understand technology3)The end was a major dissapointment too with little left to be relaved.Overall , its not worth your time.

I'll Pass.....
I like Third Day for their worship songs...not for their music in which they don't even mention God. Other reviewers are saying that Third Days' older music was "in your face" with Jesus. The Spirit inside of me desires music that praises God out in the open not in hidden lyrics. I really started to like Third Day. Would sing out to God, "Show me your Glory.." I sampled portions of this "Wire" album and read the lyrics on the Third Day website and am not interested in buying it. The song.."I Believe"(heard it on the radio).is catchy but not enough for me to want to buy. As a saved Christian I am only desiring music that has me feeling close to God. I like Third Day and won't abandon them...I'll just listen to their old songs and wait to see if they go back to worshipping God with their music.

High Expectations, Huge letdown
I had high expectations for this item. The reviews I had read made it sound great. I plugged my Zen Vision M into the wall charger the moment it arrived and everything looked like it was going well. I came back from a nap to find my screen flashing in different spots.My Zen Vision will no longer start up. I feared the worst.Only to realize the wall charger simply was not working. When I plug my Zen into my computer with the supplied charger it connects and charges fine. It does not sync it for access but that may be worked out later hopefully.Considering the price and that this has not fried my Zen yet, I would say it is an OK deal. However I really wish my Wall Charger would work.

Great Product - Awful Tech Support
If you are thinking of buying this product to utilise your Mac as a PC as well, then you are on the right track. However, if like me you have a few peripherals, some development tools, etc. there will come a time when you will need tech support. That's when you hit a brick wall.You have a better chance of emailing your gold fish and getting a response than from someone at Connectix. I mean that most sincerely. Weeks. Absolutely weeks go by before someone will wake up to the fact that you have written in and respond to you. Then they will ask you for more information. Then you will respond and then another month or two will go by.Think hard before you make this purchase if this is the kind of company you want to deal with. Because you are going to be facing many, many lonely weeks waiting for their response, if it ever comes.

It's a very good intro book
I found this book to be an excellent review/refresher of or introduction to statistics and experimental design. I took my first statistics course in medical school in the 1970's when statistics was all about math, proofs, etc. Fact of the matter is that most people who actually use elementary statistics do not have near enough math background to understand any but the simplest of proofs. Thus, I was happy to see a book on statistics that actually focuses on what is more important: the understanding of experimental design and an elementary understanding of the statistics which are useful, depending on the experimental design.I would highly recommend this book as probably the best elementary statistics book I've read. I am a physician who has recently begun a serious clinical research program and although we have "real" statisticians, I need to know more myself. This book is a very, very nice introduction.For more detailed inquiry, the SPSS series of books are excellent.

Interesting.
I enjoyed reading the Complete Book of Werewolves. Especially the historical section. Since I'm not an expert on werewolf movies I can't say much about those chapters involving the cinema, but the sections with folklore were interesting. I particularly liked the discussion of "Fascination," and the different types of were creatures such as were-bears and were-pigs. Overall, a good read for those interested in were-wolf lore.

Chime Rainbow Maker
The gear that is supposed to spin the crystal causing it to strike the chimes failed to engage that gear sliding right by it. Returned for credit. Would purchase again if I could be sure it was going to function properly. The double and single rainbow makers work perfectly.

metal roots
great album that sees soundgarden sort of embracing their metal roots, while making fun of them at the same time. there are some incredible songs on here, namely the opening track "ugly truth."i wouldn't reccomend this album for someone just trying to get into soundgarden, but i'd reccomend it for anyone else. there are many awesome tracks on here. one of my personal faves is "full on kevin's mom."a lot of people claim this is their "zeppelin rip off album", which i guess is true to some extent, but man this album rocks. also it's their only album to land an explicit warning on it. listen to the track "big dumb sex."this album does a good job setting the stage for badmotorfinger.

Great shoes, but run small
I love Spira shoes, and have had two pairs of their walking shoes. These are good athletic shoes, but not quite as fabulous as the leather walking shoe. For some reason they are not quite as springy and bouncy, although they are still better than most athletic shoes. Also,for some reason they seem to run small. I wear a size 9 in the Spira leather walking shoe, but had to order a 9 1/2 in these. Otherwise, I am satisfied with these shoes, but also feel that they may be a bit overpriced.

Lids Were Very Poor Quality
I purchased this Pyrex set thinking they would be similar to an older set of Pyrex I own, and I was wrong. While the glass parts were the same, the lids are much thinner and half of the lids came deformed. I was able to snap the rectangular lids on just fine, but have yet to actually be able to use any of the circular lids.In the future I will purchase any Pyrex physically so I can make sure the lids aren't unusably bad.

I think they are great to easily & quickly, (and less embarrassing) way to find your body fat, and progress on your fitness journey. The best way to find your body fat is w/ the clamps, but this is hard to do on your own, and time consuming.

I downloaded the upgrades for the mouse online and for the week I used it had the problem of trying to keep the pointer from moving where I didn't want it to go. I play online games and it couldn't keep up. I ended up buying the laser mouse and smashing this product with a hammer. That was the only satisfaction I got from using this. I did stick with Logitech and got thier laser mouse which works great. I've always used thier products so one bad apple wasn't going to spoil it for me.

Very Comprehensive book on all Facet of E-commerce
I read this book after a glowing review in the CIO magazine. Imust say that the book is very through in its coverage of electroniccommerce. Definitely one for the bookshelf. The only defect of this book (and something the authors have no control over) is that some of the chapters are outdated. However, if one can read between the lines that should not be an overwhelming problem. This book is definitely one for students who want a comprehensive view of the subject.

Excellent Allergy relief
I ordered these capsules because I want a vegetarian version. I was a little worried because of another review that said they arrived and the capsules had leaked and the oil was all over and it was a mess. Well, I received mine and they were fine. I had been using another, non-vegetarian brand before finding these, and it seems to me that these ones are doing a better job of controlling my allergy symptoms.

What is the point?
I can't believe how dissapointed i am with this movie. With one or two good parts the rest of the movie is crap. The bad guy is the only cool character, and i use cool very very spareingly. What is the point of a ninja movie where the main character gets his butt handed to him through the entire movie!!!!! You can't even call him a ninja because he dosen't do anything stealthly. Just martial arts and he gets his butt kicked over and Over and over and over and over....... It is pathetic. Even at the end when the hero is supposed to be amazing and super strong, fast, skilled, etc. He still gets his butt kicked. I should have listened to the negative reviews and not wasted my money. God i hate myself for buying this.

Great! The Offspring has done it again!
Their last album "Smash" was pretty good. But I have to admit that this album is better, but not as good as "Americana." "Americana" is my favorite album ever and I have over 40 c.d.'s. This is probably one of my favorites. This is an essential Offspring c.d. If you like The Offspring and don't have this album, GET IT!!!

I give it four stars squared.
I'm no Einstein, but I do know a good book when I read one, and this one qualifies. Bodanis uses the famous equation to share biographical sketches of fascinating scientists working toward the discovery and application of the 20th century's great scientific breakthrough. With any popular science writing success can be measured by how well the author can take the obscure and esoteric come alive and show science to be what it ultimately is, a compelling human story. Without question the author succeeds.

Excellent, but be careful.
Works very well. Just be careful not to bend stem at all. If you do bend it -- say, by running with frother touching side or bottom of cup/glass -- you will likely never get it back to "true" no matter what you do. It will probably continue to work, but not nearly as well. We bought a second and are treating it with kid gloves.

The King has Finally been Crowned
After Listening to So many Other Artists spout their crap, trying to make a dollar, and absorbing Jay-Z's Whack tracks till it hurt, I can finally say that Nas Took the Shovel From his shed and Buried that loser forever. If you ever compared any 2 tracks by NaS and Jay-Z you see that NaS simply represents the Essence Of Hip-hop, The Streets, Unity and Life in The real world, This Commercialist ideology needs to disappear in order for us to get the true message in Hip Hop. I Love Nas Simply because his Music Is inspirational, beatiful and unforgettable. Buy This Record, StillMatic, the Lost Tapes and get your Hands On his Lesser Known tracks, you will Not regret it, and After you do, You will be ready for The next Drop...

Ordered 8 boxes of Toasti Toes Toe Warmers (40 pair per box) that were sold by Brand Variety. When my order came it was in a very small box that contained a total of 8 pairs.....not the 320 pairs that I paid for.

I did finally get a refund but will never purchase anything from this seller again. THEY DID NOT HONOR WHAT THEY ADVERTISED !!

Accessible, insightful and broadly applicable
An accessible and insightful examination of the flat panel display industry from its inception to 2000. Murtha, Lenway and Hart make two broad contributions. First, they refute many of the myths that surround the flat panel display industry. Second, they generate insights that are applicable to any technologically innovative industry. The book will be valuable to managers, policy makers and academics. Highly recommended.Glenn Hoetker, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

It doesn't work!
I placed it in my living room which is next door to the kitchen. Every time I cooked with alcohol it would go off. Then I moved to the bedroom. It started going off at 2 am in the middle of the Summer. I called the fire department twice; they came over, used their equipment to "sniff" the house and found absolutely no evidence of carbon monoxide or gas. Both times I worked all day, was out of the house, didn't cook, didn't use cleaning products near it, it had absolutely no reason to go off. The gas company recommended that I unplug it - what a waste of money and energy.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
This book is about a young girl named Lucy who finds her way to a magical wardrobe. She goes through and finds herself in the magical land of Narnia. She meets a creature who becomes her friend and invites her to have snacks and to come a second time. However, she also met an evil witch. When her brother Edmund stumbled into the magical wardrobe, he also met the witch, but he fell for her tricks and soon became an evil little boy. The Lion, who is the king, comes into the story and teaches Edmund's three other siblings lesson about how to beat the witch. Although I enjoyed this story of the land Narnia and the kids Lucy, Edmund,Peter, and Susan, I did not find this type of surreal tale very exciting.

Clear and concise
Dr. Field,Has written a book that should be an example to all others writing about: 1. SPSS and 2. Research methods. As a grad student I have been trying to put together all the stats classes that I have taken and the SPSS class I took and make sense out of it. This book was the final key that brought it all together. Based on logic ... its funny that the science of statistics should be so without logic as far as teaching goes. Again, this book is the way that books on stats and SPSS should be written. My only problems: 1. That while there is a lot covered, I wish that he would go through all (or almost all) of the statistical applications available in SPSS and 2. I would've liked to see a "refresher" on the commands to complete the statistical process talked about, at the end of the chapter. In summary, this book is the only book that I would recommend to those in need of help regarding SPSS and statistics. I can't wait for his new book, co-authored by Dr. Hole.

And with an infant or newborn you don't have time to waist on this silly thermometer. My baby hates it under his arms, he squirms and cries, in the meantime I'm still waiting to get a reading from it!! I would advise parents to purchase a digital thermometer for the ear or simply choose another name brand, this Vicks model needs to be chunked in the river!!!!

Humorless War Film
If you're looking for a dark fantasy or horror film, you'll have to look elsewhere--"Pan's Labyrinth" is a humorless war film marketed as a dark fairy tale. When the director pulls the rug out from under the viewer at the end of the movie, people literally walked out of the movie booing. It's quite literally the biggest disappointment since "The Village". If you're into movies like "Schindler's List" or "Saving Private Ryan," however, you might enjoy this film.

A wondrous adventure.
Having merely heard of Neil Gaiman (through Sandman), when I purchased this novel, I was hoping for nothing more than a book worth $6. Not only was this book worth the money I paid, I think it must be one of the best fantasy novels I have read in the last three or four years. A wonderfully complete, well illustrated world - with colourful characters and a gripping story. Gaiman's writing is sparse in this book, but this serves to better captivate the imagination. The concepts he draws at, the elements he leaves us wondering at (I NEED some follow-up books), left me marvelling. A warning, however: I picked up Stardust, and didn't like it at all. It felt, as another reader commented, 'incomplete'. So - don't buy that. Don't even read it. But you are really, really missing out if you do not read _Neverwhere_. Not only did I gobble it up, but it broke me out of my writer's block and allowed me to continue work on my novel.

Just when you think that american pop rock can't get any slower...Think Joy Division on an american diet of fluff and shallowness.

Aww.. naughty women were mean to these two fugs.In short.. this band is great for those who need things to be spelled out for them. Which makes it perfect for American teenagers :D.

It is possible to learn how to be more "resilient"
I had an opportunity to hear the author speak about "resiliency in the workplace" at a conference in Portland, OR two years ago. He offered good examples and strategies for coping with stress and change. I enjoyed his talk, and bought this book and another title by him as well. I have since bought additional copies of this book to give to friends who are experiencing different kinds of stress. All of them have found the book to be useful as well.

Very funny
This episode focuses on the Rabbit Talisman, which is ironically stuck in the shell of a tortoise. (How it got stuck in there is never explained, though) Jade and the Dark Hand see it by accident when the turtle is featured on the news, so they race for it, leading to some rather funny scenes including Jackie in a shark tank.Once the Dark Hand obtains the talisman, they have no use for the turtle, so Valmont arranges its sale to a man who has an appetite for rare (read: endangered animals) to satisfy his palate. On top of that, his name is Karl Nivor (carnivore) Jade doesn't want the tortoise to be eaten, so tries to rescue it from the clutches of the man who would have him for supper. The whole episode has lots of funny bits in it, and it's hard to not appreciate the comparison between the rabbit and the turtle (especially since said tortoise was named Aesop) Two thumbs up!

Nice Looking but doesn't last
I like the looks of the product, but unfortunately, after 5 years of normal operation in the kitchen, the extension hose just ruptured. This is where the true customer service gets tested. The lifetime limited warranty was "honored" by the company. Of course the thing ruptured on a Saturday. Office hours of Grohe's singular US distribution site are Mon-Fri. Anyway, they said they would ship it out immediately...Sounded good, until 7 days later, no replacement. They said it was on backorder and was going out today, 9 days after first call. I don't know if I will get it, but what I do know is that it is very difficult to go without a kitchen faucet for over 10 days. There is absolutely no distribution network within the US. So, although a nice faucet, there are no parts, and no backup for you when it breaks. And it probably will break. This thing is too expensive to just rupture for no reason...I would not by anything from Grohe again...

first i ordered it for 5-8 business day shipping but it arrived in 3 business which was awesome. really easy to install and operate. My only complaint, and it is not Dual's fault, is that the USB port does not work for any Apple product. Aux port does though. Other than that its a great radio.

Comfortable Pens
I like pens with a soft grip. But, since my pens tend to disappear, I was looking for some that were inexpensive. These fit the bill. They write nicely & are comfortable to use. I'll buy these pens again.

Nearly useless as a calculus textbook
I am a fan of traditional theorem-proof exposition, and this Ostebee-Zorn text demonstrates why. This book attempts to make calculus easy to understand, but the only result is that it is impossible to follow. Essential concepts are buried deep within piles of verbiage, and the examples skip important steps making them hard to follow. Add to that the large number of typos and errors in the solutions manual. As a teaching assistant, I have had strong mathematics students who could not understand this book and whose knowledge of calculus suffered as a result. With so many quality calculus textbooks on the market, it is hard to understand why a school would choose to use this unsuccessful experiment.

The hustle is on...
I go along with the other disgruntled reviewers who paid for the first three seasons only to be sandbagged with this box set. This is an opitional purchase that I will never make.

PULLEASE
"Bob Roberts" was Tim Robbins first foray into political filmmaking. He draws on his family experience as traveling folk singers and fashions a story of a conservative, religious political candidate who sings family songs on the campaign trail. The film itself is good stuff, well acted and produced, but the message is clear: White conservative Christians are just frauds and cannot be trusted. One watches it and wonders what a truthful depiction of Jesse Jackson would look like. Or an inside look at Joseph P. Kennedy pulling the strings in Jack's Congressional and Senate campaigns? Or the inside deals that kept Teddy Kennedy in office after Mary Jo Kopechne was killed? How about Al Sharpton and the Tawana Brawley incident? "Bob Roberts" is one of those movies that you just watch and shake your head.

Excellent movie
Quirky and romantic in a very clean, non-sexual, way. It almost (but only almost) made me miss being a tween.

does not work
This pump simply does not work as advertised. I had planned to use it to pump water from a 55 gal drum and the pump didn't have the suction to lift the water up to the pump itself. I tried using just one the of extension tubes (the pump comes with three tube extensions) in a bucket of water and it was barely able to do the job; with all three tube lengths connected together, it didn't work. After notifying the dealer of this problem, they sent me another pump and it also didn't work. One has to conclude that this particular model pump has some kind of design or manufacturing flaw.

Another great title to add to my collection!
The main storyline in this recent installment has Stephanie & Ranger teamed up to find Samuel Singh, an immigrant of India who came to the U.S. on a work visa. Mr. Singh has signed a new & controversial 'visa bond' - one which is supposed to ensure that the holder of a temporary visa leaves the country at the appointed time by holding the employer responsible for the bond. The only problem is that Mr. Singh has mysteriously vanished. Stephanie & Ranger are assigned to track him down & bring him back. In the midst of the hunt, Stephanie stumbles upon a bigger mystery that involves a sinister webmaster, and a sick game of cat & mouse (with Stephanie as the mouse). This book definitely ranks high! Lively and fun, you won't be disappointed. I purchased this book through Amazon.com . [This]book [is a] quirky winner!

Storm of the Century Stephen King
Product arrived a day or 2 sooner than I thought it would and was in condition stated. This is a typical Stephen King Movie which I love to watch, it's a bit long almost 3 hours, but was not bored anytime during the movie. I suggest people buy this movie and also would suggest they buy from this merchant.Phantom2k3

This book has potential
Ok, I am kind of stuck. I am trying to find the real meaning of "Shane", but with no avail. I KNOW there is a meaning, all the adults talk about it...but what is it? And, what are all the 'little' meanings (ex. What is the meaning of the stump? Does it show that Joe and Shane work well together?) PLEASE help me! email me or something. I am in 8th Grade and I just got done with the book. help.

even better than I remembered
I hadn't heard this record in about 15 years when I recently picked up the CD (Captain Oi version). What a great record! Total punk rock but with real R&R; roots. The band is so tight, the songs are great and Nicky Garratt's killing it on guitar. His favorite guitarist is Richie Blackmore and I just noticed how a lot Nicky's solos start off kinda like "Speed King" or "Highway Star" on this record. Killer! That's probably a turn off to some punks, but that's life.Check out Mighty High...In Drug City.

yea yea yea
A lot of folks think this is pop trash but I love it. It just shows you Basie could take any type of music and make it swing. Snappy, good feeling stuff by a legend performing the songs of other legends. Lighten up naysayers-- this is tremendous fun!

This book has it all!
This guide was all I needed for my trip to Atlanta. It has great color fold-out maps, exact prices on all hotels and attractions, and even ratings for every hotel, restaurant, and attraction! I was able to take a tour of the CNN Center, explore the MLK Jr. Center, and even hang out at the zoo..I found it all in this guide..great for taking a trip with the family or for business.

We bought all these so our daughter could watch them and she loves them. It's a lot better than some things on TV now.

No Thanks
This faux-R&B pop vocal group has to be one of my very least favorite types of music. I would never even think of buying this album. One star is awarded for singing in tune, and decent sound quality of the recording.

Booooooo Boooooo
Really disappointed. I purchased Earth because I thought it would have unique footage. The whole movie is made from the Planet Earth series. No where on the packaging of the movie did it say this was footage from Planet Earth. Don't buy. Save your money.

This book is a waste of your money
Buying this book is probably the worst purchase decision that I have ever made. This book is more like a small glossary of financial terms and entities. As far as diagrams and tables are concerned, there are none. Even the basics like confirms, trade matching, reconcilliation are not covered.

One Narcissism Grande to go!
I would like Amy Sohn (and Ariel Steiner) much better if they weren't so breathtakingly self-absorbed. Amy is a good writer, but it's hard after a while to care about and root for someone who is so completely consumed with themselves. She comes across as very insecure and very ambitious, which is a deadly combination.

Not a Wasted Note
A masterpiece of vision, execution, and expression. WYWH trancends staple rock 'n roll to pure artform, without pretention. So hauntingly beautiful and bittersweet, I still get chills and hear new facets of the compositions after thousands of listenings. If I could only own one rock CD (no, ANY CD) this would be the one. Production notes: I have compared all the different CD pressings, including remasters, and my recommendation is the Fidelity Labs gold CD -- without question. Of course, if you have reel-to-reel...

Possibly the best baker who story ever
THe BBC restoration team has done a great job not filtering out too much of the backround clutter on this episode. THe story remains one of the highpoints of it's season and possibly Tom Baker's best who story. How he agonizes over using genocide to destroy the universal evil that is the Daleks, and how that influences David Tenents Doctor in season 2 of the new series ( available on amazon in January) The special features are nice and I highly recommend this one as a good intro to classic Dr WHO if you are not familiar with the old series.

Dickson brings new life to Jim Eckert's continuing Adventure
In "The Dragon and the Gnarly King" Gordon Dickson explores a new fantasy world. Jim Eckert, the Dragon Knight is forced to pursue his enemies into a mystical realm. This book will create a word in your mind than continues after you've stopped reading. You'll forgot you're reading and begin to live it.

Great replacement
This replacement filter is exactly the same that my GE Profile fridge came with. Better pricing to buy on Amazon then at retail store as I have previously done. Will purchase from Amazon for all future needs.
