Worst Penny Jordan
The very first romance book I ever read was by Penny Jordan and I've loved the genre ever since. I've always enjoyed her stories especially but when I read this I couldn't believe she wrote it. The heroine is a horrible wimp and I have yet to meet a woman like her in the 21st century. She was so annoying that I found this story impossible to enjoy, if I could give this book zero stars than I would.The Sandra Marton story was enjoyable and the only redeeming thing about purchasing this book. Her characters were easy to like and the heroine in the story was strong and independent. I hate when the women are all wimpy and clingy to the men like they couldn't possibly survive without a man.

Powerful enough to reduce you to tears...
After seeing the movie, I was enchanted by the images and sounds of the film for days. When I dicovered there was a score, I was frantic to buy it. Without a doubt, this is the most powerful CD in my collection. The tunes, though short, can greatly influence your mood. Listening to Track 1, "Still Dead," can get you in an uplifting spirit; Track 2, "Arose," will cause you to dream of private fantasies. The most powerful songs, Track 8 and 18, titled "American Beauty/Still Dead," can bring tears to your eyes. The melancholy piano of those songs will bring you down into the greyest depression you've ever experienced, which is good every one in a while. If you loved the movie, or just liked it, get the CD. Images of the film will keep coming back to you as you listen.

Fun Sixties Throwback
Better story than Jungle Book. Better music. Some things are red flags to parents today (A goose gets drunk, and several characters smoke.) But it's still better than Jungle Book in my opinion, a tighter story, with more charming characters. Scatman Caruthers (sp?) does a great job.

Nice aroma
I like to check out companies and their oils to see if the quality matches to price. This lavender has a very pleasant aroma. Lavender Aromas vary so much and some can be horrific. This is a high quality aroma. You get what you pay for with this lavender.

Sketchy but true
I was, at first, afraid of ordering this cord. So cheap? Not Name-brand? Hmm...Lo and behold, it's phenomenal, have had it plugged in to my 46" VIZIO LCD HDTV for almost a month now, and, [as much as I know Original Xbox games are dated] it brings my games BACK to life! I love it, couldn't be more pleased.

Speedy shipping, worked well
Worked OK. For some reason the laptop does not talk to the battery so cannto tell the charge level but it works, that is, charges and discharges ok. If the laptop and battery is really important to you, get IBM's official battery instead. This was for a 3rd laptop so I bought this. Cost is cheap $50 against IBM's $180 even after I work at IBM and get employee discount.

Wonderful Collection
I had enough of a balance on a gift card for one CD. After listening to samples of selections from Liona Boyd, Ana Vidovic, Susan Isbin and Martha Masters, I came across this one. I listed to the samples over and over and finally ordered it, largely because I liked the sounds of the duet. Once I received the CD and played the selections all the way through, I think I made the right choice. This is a superb collection. These two ladies brilliantly blend melodies and harmonies, with a little dissonance thrown in here and there.I've had it for a few months now and it's still as fresh as when I first listened to it. You know sometimes when you get a new CD, you're hyped up on it and listen to it over and over, but then after a while it takes its place amongst the rest of your collection? Not this one for me. Whenever I need to wind down, this is the one I listen to and I haven't grown tired of it yet.

Different but not that different
this cd is different from the 4 previous Stripes cd's but great nonetheless. instead of jack strumming the guitar, he mainly plays piano on this album, which isn't as bad as some of these reviews have said it to be. some of the stand out songs on this cd are: blue orchid, my doorbell, forever for her, the denial twist, and take, take, take. if you're new to the stripes then pick up this album as well as White Blood Cells or Elephant.. if you don't like them.. then you probably suck.

Wood Shop Safety video
I would recommend it as one small piece of what an instructor needs for the unit on safety. Very engaging, especially since it uses student actors for the parts. Price could use some adjusting(cheaper), as the video is short(13 minutes) and amaturishly packaged(lacked a dvd menu). Other than the lack of the dvd menu, it was well done and covered the basics of behavior in the woodshop...

Memories of Survival is a very special book
Memories of Survival reveals the truth in the saying that a picture is worth a thousand words and for the first time the history of the Holocaust makes the leap from memory to life in the hand stitched and embroidered tapestries of Holocaust survivor Esther Nisenthal Krinitz.Having also seen the original artwork that is presented in this beautiful book I can attest that the pictures and stories touch the reader, whether child or adult. The book lovingly enables you to feel that you are remembering the human realities that Esther Nisenthal Krinitz experienced as a child and that she later stitched to life to tell her story to her family, and now shares with the world.Memories of Survival has a place in every home.

Could you go any safer? Doubtful.
What kind of rule is it that every supergroup, regardless of how innovative their original bands are, has to put out the most unoriginal schlock imaginable?Following in the proud, safe tradition of chart toppers by Audioslave and Velvet Revolver, I present to you the Panic Channel. (ONe) sounds like the birthchild of the filler songs by both previously mentioned bands. Listening to this disc leaves no doubt in your mind as to who the musical mind was in Jane's Addiction.Among the many, many problems the album has, perhaps the worst is lead vocalist Steve Isaacs. Isaacs, a former MTV VJ, has the vocal intensity of Chad Kroeger's less talented brother. Seeing as how Dave Navarro is a host for the CBS prime time show Rock Star, it's perhaps only fitting that the singer chosen for this band sounds like he came off a reality show."Win a chance to front Jane's Addiction, only without the heart, soul, or innovation!"What a waste of talent.

A Unique Perspective
Kirk Woodward has closed yet another gap in the lore of America's legendary highway. Even though this book could be used by any cruiser, motorcyclists are a breed apart and therefore hold a unique perspective. Mr. Woodward has spent years travelling and absorbing the "magic" of Route 66, and the content of this book is a direct expression of his own special feel for the road. If you love old roads, motorcycles, or just plain travel, this is without question one of those "gotta haves!" In fact, buy two copies. That way you'll have one for the book shelf and one for the highway.

BAD CRANK AND SWITCH DESIGN
This product is ok for emergency back-up when it works. Twice I have returned this product because the crank keeps breaking. You are to crank it for one minute to get its full charge. Twice I have cranked the handle and something broke inside. So after the charge went down you can't get it to charge anymore. I took it back and got my money back. My advice to anyone who uses this light is to have a good light for a back-up. Its unknown how long the crank will last before it lets you down and won't be able to have lite. Both of mine broke within no more than four cranks and had to return them. They are a great idea and nice to have. They just last to long.

You need training or just be honest.
I ordered this item and received 3 different sizes of baking dishes instead of this one. I returned them with an explaination, in the box, and again received the same 3 baking dishes. I Talked with the Amazon people, and they said that it was a miss write on the description, and that they were fixing it as we were talking. They credited my account. A week later I checked for the Item I wanted and there it was, no different than when I first ordered it. I really wanted this item and it seems that they can't deliver. I will order it from Lehman's catalog. This item is cheaper through them anyway. I will reconsider purchasing any items that go through Target. They also indicated that they would send me a free gift for the inconvenience. Never got it.Anchor Hocking Oven Basics Glass Baking Dish Trio

A legend gone too soon
Esther Phillips a legend in her own right, was over looked so soon.A gifted singer and vocal interperter died before her time.She was one of the original divas of our time, with so much soul and heartbreak this lady deserves to be one of the leading ladies of soul and rhythym and blues.Time is on her side ,her music speaks for herself.She in my opinion can be heralded as one of the first female singers to sing a song with so much emotion and pain of the life she lead.We will all miss you.

If you own only one Buffett CD, this should be it !
Of course, no one can own just one. While many parrotheads argue about "missing" songs this is a super, super collection. The recording quality is superb (which is a great boon to those of us who own the vinyl originals.) Its well worth the investment. It contains all of what Jimmy calls " the play or get killed songs" from his concerts.Just imagine kicking in any of these CD's, close your eyes and you're sitting back on a lounge chair with powder sand under your feet and Carribean blue water ahead !

dillinger grooves
Under Heavy manners encompasses the long, prolific career of Dillinger, a reggae great. He puts together some of the most hilarious and clever lyrics. The record contains some of his most recognizable hits, like "Plantation Heights" and "Cocaine in my Brain". This is a great buy for reggae fans and anyone who wants to listen to some up-beat, groovy tunes.

Very rough reading, no plot, no dialogue
I appear to be in the minority in my review. Obviously, the author put many hours of work in this, years of research, and had a passion for Hadrian. Maybe I have lowbrow taste, but kept turning the pages waiting for anything to arouse my interest. There were too many names and places with which I was not familiar. I don't have the patience to stop and look up every name or place mentioned. There was no plot, no suspense, and no humor. In short, nothing I could find to make the book readable. It is like reading the encyclopedia. There is plenty of information, but it had no entertainment value for me at all. Reading all of the reviews makes me feel stupid, but all I can do is warn those who are hoping to get some enjoyment from this book. I hope you have better luck with it than I did!

First off i would like to say that any thoughtful teenager should read this book. It is a great aspect on things that are wrong with society and i really related to this book. I also am someone who criticizes society a lot. This book came out in a time of a mass conformed society and was perfect critisism. I love the point of view the book was written in it really adds to the complete image.

Creative Improvised Music from the Pacific NW
Dave Storrs and The Tone Sharks are at it again. This quintet of very talented musicians met for 2 days in 1999 to spontaneously compose or collectively improvise on all the compositions excepting cub scout barbecue (sounds like a minimum of written composition there either). Storrs and his Tone Sharks have been a fixture in the Pacific NW for years and their interaction is unpredictable and entertaining. They are having fun too for sure. Thank you Amazon for finding independent labels like Louie [...] because they often record the finest local music. Anyone interested in genre-busting creative improvised music should listen to Tone Sharks recordings. And better yet, catch them live.

Anything Gungor is good
Michael Gungor is a awesome singer/songwriter/musician period. This disc has some very good songs and arrangements that have Gungor's unique signature. From hugely popular worship songs like "Friend of God","Here I am to worship" and "Meet with me" to solid jems like "It's Your love", "Move me" and "I am Yours" this is a quality worship effort. If you're a guitar player pay paticular attention to "Doxology" and "It's Your love" Gungor has some serious guitar skills. You won't be disappointed with this project.

Girls ARE meant to be scientists!
Denise, a 10-year-old girl, wants to explore mold under her new microscope. Her efforts to secretly create specimens are quickly "outed" when Mama catches a whiff of the foul odor. This is the first volume in a picture book that encourages kids to explore science.The story is simple; what makes the book great is the informative material in the back--including instructions on growing your own mold. Buy this book, especially if there is a young and/or precocious girl in your life.

Best Halloween movie ever!!
Watching Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow every October has become a family tradition for us. Just the right amount of creepiness, gore and humor to set the mood for Halloween. While it's not suitable for very young children, it's a classic that older kids won't outgrow. When I discovered that one of my kids swiped the DVD we had for years when she went off to college, I had just to replace and upgrade to the HD--it just wouldn't be Halloween without it!

A brisk espionage thriller with libertarian undertones.
This novel presents the frightening situation of US members of Congress getting assassinated unless Congress gives in to a very right wing agenda. A young congressman gets involved in solving the mystery and does test his own morals. There are a lot of interesting observations about military culture (especially loner-type ex-military commandos) and civilian intelligence culture. Very briskly written assassination scenes. Since Flynn is a Minnesota native, there is also good background on his part of the country.

Works well, is a bit hard to clean
I've been using the carafe for 3 months, and generally speaking a pleasure to use. it's decently constructed (though by no means heavy duty), and it's lasted so far, even though I'm not gentle on things.My only real complain is that because the carafe narrows at the top, and it's rather tall, it's hard to clean the bottom without a brush.

1000 stars
If you're a heavy metal fan, you have every right to feel ashamed for not owning this record. Refused f-ing rock! This is such a slamming, grooving, neck-snapping record, it's hard to properly describe it. I can't heap enough praise on it, it's brilliant! I truly wish this WAS the shape of punk to come! I'd guess that if you like old NYC hardcore, post-punk stuff like Minor Threat and At The Drive In, then you have every reason to LOVE this LP. You'll spin this thousands of times before ever getting tired of it.

Inexpensive, but hardly any tone
Ordered these only because I needed ~$3.15 in cart filler to get free shipping and figured my back-up acoustic could use a new set of strings since the verrrrry old Elixirs on it were rusted out to all hell.Just finished putting them on, pulling and tightening and tuning, pulling and tightening and tuning, pulling and tightening and tuning....... still, pulling and tightening and tuning, pulling and tightening and tuning. You get the idea. I've been an Elixir fan for years and have put on many new sets of those (among others). Never before have I had to tighten each string this many times for it to hold its pitch -- I'm talking over a dozen rounds each! Not a good sign...Played five or six songs of different sounds after and found the tone of these guys to be pretty dismal. Very dull, no brightness to them at all. Would not buy again, even for $3.15, nor to even use as single break back-ups. Two stars because they are guitar strings and do, after all, "work".

I think I first saw "Magic Christian" in the early 70s. I thought it was philosophically interesting, funny and fun. I watched it last week and kept waiting for the good parts.

The House on Hope Street was a very touching story of love, gut level pain, sorrow, reality, family, recovery, but most of all hope. This easy reading, will hit all levels of emotions and will bring you back in a full circle to believing anything is possible with a sense of deserving no matter what has happen in one's life. Believing and hoping that true love is possible even through the worse of times, and possibily more than once in a life time. I highly recommend this book!

You've got to be kidding me
5 stars???? ...More like a star. Good actors gone bad. Are you sure this is the same guy that directed Forest Gump? The storyline was pretty week and all of the acting in it was horribly cheesy. Seriously, you could see the 'scary' scenes from a mile away. When you see someone on screen slowly trying to round a corner, and the music is building so that you know when they peer around the corner, something will be there, that isn't very scary. Worse than any Lifetime Original, and Harrison Ford's worst acting to date.....yes....even worse than Six Days Seven Nights. It definitely offers no new twists that other horror/suspense movies haven't already covered, so where are people getting 5 stars from, or even 3? Well, I guess the only reason I can give it any stars is that it is pretty scary that this movie made over $100 million in the theaters, making the American public more scary than the movie.

Only an Outline - You have to Seach for Answers
This book is only an outline of what to study. You have to search the internet for all the answers. If this is the only book you have, you will feel extremely overwhelmed! This is definitely not for an alternate route candidate who needs to refresh their elementary knowledge. This may be a good study guide for the recent student who just received their bachelor's degree's & everything is fresh in their mind.It does have a practice test that is useful, but so do the other study guide books. Plus it's only 93 questions & the real test has 120 questions.I don't recommend buying it. See if you local library has it. That's what I did.I recommend the following:REA Praxis II Elementary Education Content Knowledge (0014) (this is a brand new book that was release in 8/2008)Kaplan Praxis (by the way the 2005 edition & the 2008 edition are page for page the same).Good luck!

WOW-this is a surprise
I was in Barnes and Nobles one day and I hear the song Valentine playing which I knew because I am a Martina McBride fan, but I am also a Jim Brickman fan. I was suprised to learn that the women singing was Oliva-Newton John. There is also a song with Donny Osmand on the CD. When I first saw Donny Osmands name all I could think was chessy seventy's music. But then when I listened to it, I actually liked the song that Donny Osmand sings. Which will make me the laughing stock of my family for a few days. Oh well. Anyway this is the best Jim Brickman cd I have heard. All the songs even the ones with the artists singing are some of the best on the album. It's worth buying!

Ok, the original version of SMB 2 was only released on the Famicon which really sucks.

Wallflowers forgotten?
The Wallflowers, in my opinion, produce very catchy adult oriented pop songs with an occasional alt-country flair.I really loved The Wallflowers first album, "Bringing Down The Horse," but for some reason or another, I just lost interest in them soon thereafter. I got this album from a friend and after a few listens, I was reminded how good the WF's are. This is not a new groundbreaking album, but is just good old quality music. Excellent chords and catchy hooks are all over here. The whole album is pretty good and there are 4-5 really great songs. My favorites are "Closer To You," "If You Never Got Sick," "Here In Pleasantville," and my favorite, "Three Ways." If you've ever been remotely interested in the Wallflowers, I highly recommend picking this one up. Pretty sure you will not be disappointed.

A road movie in a book, for little English lovers
When a bored and self-indulgent little boy discovers a toy car and a cardboard toll booth in his bedroom, a voyage of discovery begins. A pun lover's dream unfolds as the diffident little Milo narrowly escapes the doldrums, visits Dictionopolis, and befriends the Watch Dog, a remarkable canine with a timepiece embedded in his side. My eight year old found the language a little too much, the pacing a little too slow, but my older child still calls it his first favourite book.

Every song just repeats the chorus in my mind this is a very poor cd and horrible lyrics i am telling whoever is interested in this cd DO NOT BUY.

disturbing...
I saw this movie at a birthday party, and may I just say that I was extremely shocked and mystified at what on earth Disney was thinking when they showed/created this movie on/for their channel.The song between Sharpay and her BROTHER Ryan, Bop to the Top, is filled with sexual references and double entendres and positively reeks of incest.There is also another similar scene between the male lead and his father in the locker room that I won't even get into.Also, the voices used, not so good. Despite the fact that it isn't even usually the actors singing (why hire leads for a musical that can't sing)the replacement voices are nasal-y and overenhanced. The actor who plays Ryan in the film is the only talented one of the group.I walked away from this movie feeling like it was a bad dream, that's how bizarre and unusual it is.

Predictable
Really should be a comic book fan before watching this or skip it. Just could not stay interested in it.

Still Bad Doggie
5 times, I sprayed the loveseat with this spray. Took a nap on the couch. Woke up to see my dog asleep on his back on the loveseat... zero effect!

Comfort and Encouragement
I was forunate to initially rent this audiobook on a cross-country trip. I listened to it 5 times in that week. I don't think, "I need to do my morning pages." I hear Ms. Cameron say, "Morning pages are mandatory". I hear the change of inflection when Ms. Goldberg says "Writng Down the Bones". You could read the instruction that finding a safe, functional place to write is a necessity or you can listen to the story about the cafe with the bad coffee and hear from the tones how important this factor was in the success of "Bones". Ms. Cameron tells a story about a walk in a dreary northern concrete and asphalt city and the inspiration she found in a single flower forcing its way through the cracks, one tiny and colorful thing living in a block of massive gray inanimate objects. Just reading the words would make this another self-help writing manual. The voices are haunting, inspirational and comforting.Yes, I bought the audiobook.Yes, I listen to it still.

Thank Goodness For Melvins
In a time where "Alternative Music" is nothing more than a big, ugly hoax, it's refreshing to see this disc. Normally, I am suspicious of a CD where almost half of the songs are covers, but King Buzzo and the gang have rid me of that phobia. This disc is almost worth it's price alone for the fabulous cover of "Youth of America" by the Wipers, a band that paved the way for bands like Melvins and, you got it, Nirvana. The band has never sounded more urgent than on this 9+ minute monster. The Pink Floyd cover is also mindblowing. Then, there is "Lovely Butterflies," which is song only Melvins could pen. If you don't own any Melvins discs now, buy this one and see what you have been missing out on (then you can do what I have already done and purchase their entire catalog). I would write more, but I'm having trouble typing and listening to this at the same time.

Hastily fabricated
Although the author claims to have high credentials, he presents very lousy descriptions of exercises, with complete disregard to grace or esthetics.As soon as you pass the well designed and colorful cover, you will be immersed in a collection of poorly sketched exercises. Each exercise is described in three or more steps, which provide no clue on the proper execution of exercise. Most of the exercise sketches are flawed and hint to the total lack of experience or exposure of the author to athletic performance.Although the book was first published in 1996, there were then reasonable level of technical skills and knowledge with publishing good illustrations that the author disregarded.

Fantasy Reading
I highly recommend this new novel by Charles Hamblen to anyone who enjoys adventure fantasies that are nevertheless grounded in reality. The story concerns a beautiful modern day singing star who is actually the reincarnation of one of the Sirens from Greek mythology. She forms a group of other famous woman from the Dawn Time, as it's called, to try to save the modern world from the recklessness of male leaders that could lead to nuclear destruction. In doing so, she tangles with some vicious politicians, including her ancient enemy Odysseus. Most interestingly, she manages to join forces with her original self from the Dawn Time to help her defeat her foes.Fantasy readers should get a real kick out of the Dawn Timers.

GREAT STORAGE YYAAAAYYYYY
We bought this initially to store some dog food but it is a bit small to hold a 30 pound bag if you want to put the bag and all in there. By putting the bag in the container we save a lot of hassle in cleaning it out. But we kept this size for our trash can. We like to leave some fruits and vegetables in bowls on our counter top as it looks nice and it helps them ripen. And we used to have a problem with small fruit flies or gnats when we did this. That and a traditional flip top trash can and the bugs were too much. I am not talking hundreds of bugs but even one bug in the house bugs me. LOL. So with a trash liner in this thing...no more bugs. The plastic lid has a foam lip on the inside making a nice secure and sealed container. We liked it so much we bought a slightly larger one to hold our dog food. It fits 30 pounds of dog food bag and all. It is easy to wheel around and just a great product all around We have had ours since 2010 and it is still in great shape.

Too Short
This so-called document will probably be replaced with the longer almost complete BLUE WILD ANGEL documentary film. I just saw this 1 hour 40 min. doco on TV [SBS, Australia] last night and was amazed to find not only 13 of the 18 songs complete but also replete with between song misshaps and dialogue. The songs were also in the correct performance order. Yes, the complete versions of "Machine Gun" and "Foxy Lady" are here and yes, rare tracks like "Ezy Rider" also make their debut. The question is: will EH put out a VHS/DVD of the complete concert? WILD BLUE ANGEL is a marked 5 star improvement over this earlier version.

Well worthwhile to buy.
The book is visually wonderful. The socks are very cute and there's a lot of history too. I've tried two of the patterns so far, and one worked out well, but the other came out too small although the gauge was correct, so I've had to modify the pattern a bit. Otherwise it's great, really a joy. I recommend the book, it's great for socks, but you may need to be prepared to improvise a little. This ('Folk Socks')is nonetheless a good book to have because the first part is very informative, and there's lots of inspiration to be found, which is really 90% of the joy of knitting anyway.

NO GOOD!
Of course Aretha could never really record a bad album but this one smacks a little of record company "let's take them for all they've got" motives. The sound quality is that of a demo-tape from the fifties and there is absolutely nothing gained from buying this album rather than any other more modern one. Aretha started great and remained consistent so anything she recorded later is better than this. I recommend any of the compilations from the seventies.

Monkeeing around with credible plotting!
The latest in the 'Monkeewrench' series is yet another departure from the fresh originality of the first volume. Once again, the atracy's have alternated the focus of the characters, so that we now have Grace, Annie, and Sharon in a 'girls road trip to hell', with the 'menfolk' of the police force left at home trying to piece the mystery together.As a suspense story, this isn't bad, but the 'nerve gas' plot line seems like it came out of an unused Tom Clancy chapter, or perhaps an 'A Team' rerun! The Tracys seem to enjoy coming up with 'improbably probable' scenarios and criminals (see their first two books), but the 'villains' here just seem to have been tacked onto the story because somebody had to behind everything...and because this isn't a 'Friday the 13th' type horror movie, after all!I'm afraid the plot went as far off course as the Monkeewrench crew did...hope they all hitched a ride back to Minnesota in the Mystery Machine with Shag and Scoob.

WORTHY EFFORT BUT JUST MISSED THE TARGET
THIS SOUNDTRACK IS A WORTHY EFFORT BUT THE BIG QUESTION HERE IS WHY THE SCORES MOST FILM REMEMBERED MOMENT THE TANK CHASE ALSO KNOWN AS A PLEASANT DRIVE IN ST PETERSBURG HAS BEEN REPLACED ON THIS ALBUM WITH A TRACK THAT NEVER MADE IT INTO THE FILM IT MAKES YOU WONDER IF MR SERRA EVEN SCORED THAT PEICE OF MUSIC THAT DID MAKE IT INTO THE FILM AND IF HE DID NOT COMPOSE IT THE PRODUCERS OF THE FILM SHOULD HAVE HIRED THIS MYSTERY MAN INSTEAD HE DID A MUCH BETTER JOB. BECAUSE OF THIS I RANK THIS CD ONE OF THE HIGHS AND LOWS OF THE BOND MUSIC SERIES AND WE HIGHLITE THE LOW IT DOES FOR ALL IT WEAKNESSES LEAVE YOU ASKING ONE MORE QUESTION WHY FOR YOUR EYES ONLY SOUNDTRACK IS NOT AVAILABLE BUT THIS IS IT WAS A MUCH MORE UP TO DATE SCORE THAN THIS

Dissapointing. Do not expect too much from this cd.
This is not what you expect from a soundtrack to star wars by john williams. He doesn't use many themes he should have used (the force theme, yoda's theme, and what about an imperial march leitmotiv in anakin's theme?) at least in a leitmotiv form. He tries unsuccesfully to make another musical universe. Mr Williams: You failed miserably!

Don't Bother
The product performance is marginal, at best. The big issue is a new $70 battery every 7 - 8 months, around 30 cleaning cycles. One more battery and we will have bought a new Scooba.Bring in a commercial firm every 3 months and you will save money.

Indiferent product; laudable service
Bought the two dvd set. The exercises were a bit softer than what I was looking for; seemed to be aimed at continous gentle movement rather than stretching into and maintaining positions. There did seem to be the advertised several hours of viewing. However the menu navigation did not respond well either to playing on my computer or my dedicated dvd player; gave up trying after a while.Contacted the producer and prompt restitution was made. Five stars for service.

I loved this book and the other 2 Brown Sugar installments. I plan on purchasing the 4th installment. If you like erotica, go for the Brown Sugar series. I enjoyed these more than anything Zane has written.

great, honest book by a great, honest man
Grizzly Years is easily one of the best "nature" books written in recent years. It is a great story of a man, like so many, soured by his service in the war in Vietnam. Though I did not read this book for its war aspect, Mr. Peacock does a great job blending it with the nature part of the book. It is very apparent how much these bears mean to Doug, and his fight to protect them is nothing short of courageous. Grizzly Years is a great nature book with human aspects thrown in, much like Lynn Schooler's The Blue Bear. I recently had the privaledge of meeting and listening to Doug, and it was one of the pleasures of my life to shake hands with a man I admire so much. I recommend this book to any lover of the natural world. Doug Peacock will change your perspective on the natural world, like so few can.
