0	Short life span, good while it lasted.	I bought my Kodak Easyshare CX7330 in February of 2005. It did well although the older it got, the more it ate batteries. With the money I have spent on batteries I would have been better off getting one with a charger and a pack. I have also tried every type of AA battery out there and it is the camera itself with the issues. Now, 2 and a half years later it has taken it's last pictures. The trouble began with when I would turn it on the indicator light would pop up green, then immediately flash red and the lens would not extend out. Sometimes it would work, sometimes not. Now I can put fresh batteries in and if I hold it just right I can take a few pictures, then the low battery icon comes on the screen and it goes dead, even without retracting the lens. As I said, it was a great little camera while it lasted, but I think I will get something more hardy next time.	negative
1	Great	Good DDR-esque game. VERY challenging at hard and expert levels, very fun game, I reccomend it.	positive
0	Hate it!	Don't waste your money on this one!! Besides scratching, it just doesn't do a good job. I would never buy another Conair product!	negative
1	18 month old loves it!	We bought this for our son because he was interested in our tools when we would work on projects. After looking around, this looked like the ideal toy, and it's worked out great! The wrench and pliers actually open, the screwdriver works with the nails in the ruler. The belt sings and lights up. The reason I gave only 4 stars is that the hat is too big, and isn't lined. I've lined it myself, so it fits my son's head. Also the tool belt is a little loose when my son wears it...though he's on the thin side. My son will "fix" his toys, and can wear his tool belt for hours...it was a good purchase!	positive
1	I saw this movie and thought it was wonderful and romantic.	I saw this movie and thought it was wonderful and romantic. It was highly improbable, but who cares? Anyone who is on line would appreciate this movie.	positive
0	Written 13 years ago, very simplistic and outdated.	This book might be good as a simple review for children interested in kennels. I found it to be very simplistic and filled with a lot of "common sense" information. If you are really interested in reading it, check your local library, it is just not worth the money.	negative
1	order from your PC get code in email	within 30 seconds of paying you get the email. Type it in and you have points and you didn't have to give Microsoft your credit card. (If you do they sign you up for automatic renewal month to month on xbox live if your subscription expires.) Cheaper then buying it at the store as well, no tax.	positive
0	Boooring.	I have read more than my share of critically aclaimed long novels that other readers give up on and I usually love them. This one is not all that long but after 150 pages it sure felt like it. Tossed it in the trash in the Atlanta airport and stared at the wall instead. Less tedious that way.	negative
0	Not as good as Lock & Lock	This product is thinner than the Lock & Locks sold here on Amazon. They are the latest imitation trying to copy Lock & Lock's innovation and technology and not as good or better!	negative
0	cute shoe but elastic was too stretchy	The shoes are really cute and would probably work for a child who is 4 or 5 but for anyone smaller the elastic strap just doesn't hold the foot in the shoe like it should...the shoe would be far better with a buckle or a velcro closure...the elastic was just too stretchy and my daughter's foot would slip out making the shoe unwearable and in my opinion even a little dangerous.	negative
1	Replacement Spools	Spool was a little tricky to put on only because you have to thread each line through the cover and keep tension on the line while replacing the cover or the line will unwind(quickly). Next time I replace the spool will try putting a clip on the line after it's threaded so that, hopefully, it'll more easily retain the tension. Either that or grow another hand.	positive
1	Perfect	I needed a small baking dish and received the usual Corning Water excellence... with the bonus of a cover. Great. I'm sure I'll enjoy using it - it is just the right size for a 2-person casserole or fruit crisp... or mini pie. Corning Ware is perfect since pie crusts always brown better on the bottom in their dishes.	positive
0	A Joke. Period	There are too many falsehoods in this book to even start describing them, and the fact that relatively-responsible atheists have repudiated this piece of trash is telling in itself. Those paranoid about creationists "forcing their views on others" must realize that it is militant atheists, and not creationists, who are trying to use the law to silence Christian expression and to remove every trace of anything religious from public life.	negative
1	Another great one	Loved this book and fell in line with the other 2. Becky is always getting into something. Very cleaver solution at the end. Funny and exciting.	positive
1	One of the best from this author	This book is a followup (not a true sequel, however) to Kill and Tell, which I thoroughly enjoyed. You don't have to read Kill and Tell in order to follow the flow of this book. But, K&T introduces the main character of this book, John Medina. I loved the characters in this book. Naima is gutsy but not to the point of emasculation. John is a man's man to the nth degree, but lets his guard down for Naima. But, he doesn't become some poor love smitten sap in the process, which I love. Story flows well, with good action sequences. As some have said, the love scenes are well crafted. Actually, Howard does love scenes with such great finesse, I think her books are worth picking up for that reason alone! I too was a little put off by the ending. I suppose I was expecting something more romantic. But, I suppose the actions suited these particular characters. When it comes to romantic suspense, Linda Howar is one of the best and this book is another example of that.	positive
1	Best thing on the market!	This car seat is EASY to use, and SAFE for your child. This is one of the best car seats I have ever had to deal with. It's EASY to install, EASIER To adjust, and my son loves it. He falls asleep in it within minutes! I highly recommend it, you can't go wrong with this carseat!	positive
1	Thank you Mommy CD	This CD is great. It provides really nice activities. The CD is easy to navigate. Each day there is a different activity. Usually, in a month there will be a theme that you work on 4 times in that month. For example, in March there are 4 activities for spring. A new letter is introduced every two weeks. We are planning to homeschool, so this gave us a schedule to look at and a small activity to do everyday. I know it isn't available yet on Amazon, but Mommy CD also produces a Alphabet Play CD, which I recommend purchasing also. It has additional Alphabet activities which are great to incorporate into the week you are doing the letter.My daughter was 3 to 4 when using this CD. We started in September and have also used October.	positive
1	Perfect bathroom shelf	Shelf is perfect for my needs. Plenty of room on top shelf to put needed things--wash cloths, baskets for shampoo, conditioner, etc.	positive
0	Smelly small cushion	The cushion is only 15 inches across, and the opening is small. It's child-sized! The rubber smells just awful! I never would have ordered it had I known it was so small. It's torture to sit on it, even only partly inflated so that it's not too firm.	negative
1	If you like horses this is the book to read	This book was a great one. I think it was one of the best books I've ever read. My favorite part was the last part, with all the adventure. So much detail and expression, I loved it. I defanitly recommend this book to others.	positive
0	A peice of junk	whatever you do, DO NOT BUY THIS SCANNER! The software is horrible and the drivers do not work with any windows os. Within a few minutes the machine broke. I bought this from Compusa and am taking it back. I wil never by antothe canon scanner ever again.	negative
0	Leaky	Yep, it's a leaker. Listen, I take care of my appliances. You know how some folks just use something and then toss it aside till next time? I rinse out the hose, rinse out the tanks... wipe down the machine... you get the picture.This thing leaks. Not always, but regularly. And then you have that mess to clean up.Poorly designed.Look elsewhere.	negative
1	A Very Fresh Interpretation of These Concertos.	This recording showcases these Haydn Cello Concertos in a way I have not heard before. Ms. Dillingham's playing is strong, yet nuanced and sensitive. She brings a remarkable sense of atmosphere to these beautiful pieces. The Moscow Chamber Orchestra is also excellent, as is the sound quality of the CD.	positive
1	Seriously Stylish	Timeless and Amazing!!!! Kid is a star and works with me at Tepper Galleries. Come visit. www.teppergalleries.com	positive
1	Aggression is a Great CD	If it weren't for the fact that they played the songs on "Raw" and "SmackDown" so much, this album would've gotten 5 stars. The Kane track is great, as well as the Godfather and DX tracks. The best has to be the Stone Cold track with Snoop Dogg and WC. The Mankind and Big Show tracks were pretty bad. Buy it.	positive
1	It's a cable, and it lasts.	I have had this product for about a year, and it has worked great. Good quality, and its a cable...	positive
1	The movie is still poor, but the DVD is good.	First off to those out there who are surprised or disappointed that there is no DTS version. Three little letters can answer that THX. THX is Lucas own sound, why would he produce a DTS version when what he wants is more people using THX. It doesn't matter whether DTS is better or not.The Phantom menace is still plauged by a poor script, poor directing and at times poor acting. The special FX are of an extremely high standard, as well as some new innovations.The DVD etras are very cool and worth it. The movie isn't trash. It just is not as good as it should have been. The DVD is well worth the money. And a good edition to your DVD libary.	positive
1	Longtime accumulator of Japanese weapons	This is a must have for anyone interested in collecting Japanese weapons of the pre 1946 time frame. Much effort was put into research and the pictures are priceless. Buy this book before you even think about buying a Japanese rifle and it will pay for itself many times over.	positive
0	fake product	I ordered the cloud b twlight ladybug, while I got the fake product with the brand merry twlightladybug. I compare it with my neighour's real one, it is poor quality.I am so sad.	negative
1	I agree with the other review: "Leaves you begging for more".	A great book, considering it is of a short period in Steve McQueen's life. This is him in his prime captured by a great photographer.	positive
1	Truly Tempting!!	Yes! Yes! Yes! This is The One! From the fact-filled booklet with vintage photos and details of the history of The Tempts, to the bonus interview with Otis Williams and the 15 bounus tracts of lead and background vocals, this DVD is first rate. The vintage TV performances are superb, showcasing the tight vocal harmonies, unparalled choreography and youthful joy radiating in each performance. Pure joy! And a real bargain even at twice the price. I've watched it over and over and still never tire of it. Buy this one!! L Train-Detroit	positive
1	The equivalent of carpet bombing your tongue	This sauce is so hot, that when I bought it many years ago, I threw out the bottle after using it for about a week. It was so hot that it was actually painful. And I'm someone who likes his food super extra spicy.Then I had another stroke of craziness a few months ago, and I bought a second bottle. This time I found that after about a week or so I could withstand the heat. So I continued to use it and now in fact I'm down to the last quarter of the bottle. But here's what I found: I can't seem to taste the spiciness as much. I don't know whether this is because my tolerance level has gone up, or if the taste receptors on my tongue and in my mouth have been totally incinerated. I suspect it's the latter.	positive
0	This album stinks compared to the other SP albums	I bought this album and was very disapointed when I listened to it. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON IT!	negative
1	Suspense (with romance)	When Hammond Cross, Assistant County Solicitor of Charleston, SC meets a mysterious woman at a county fair, he falls madly in love with her despite never knowing her name. Then, she shows up as a suspect in the high-profile murder he is prosecuting. He doesn't reveal his involvement with her right away, which makes things infinitely complicated for them both as the investigation progresses.Brown keeps us guessing right up until the end about which character the actual murderer is, and drops several juicy red herrings. All the individuals in the story are skillfully drawn with well-rounded personalities and each has a separate motivation for the murder. There is no clear `bad guy' in the tale, which makes it all the harder to pick from among them who the killer is. I would recommend this to any fan of romantic suspense, and even fans of mysteries, as the `romance' is less pronounced than others of this genre.	positive
0	Pet Pectillin	Pet Pectillin is vanilla flavored and my two cats with severe diarrhea absolutelyrefused to take it. It may be useful for people with dogs,but I do not advisebuying it for cats!	negative
0	Not as good as "Baby Learns Chinese"	I bought this DVD thinking that my daughter (22 months) would love it, since she loves "Baby Learns Chinese" DVD. But I was disappointed. She is not interested in this DVD at all. I am also not happy that it has both English and Chinese. It would be more effective if it is ALL in Chinese. Children learn best if they are totally immersed in the language. I speak both English and Chinese, and the "Baby Learns Chinese" DVD definitely has better pronounced Chinese.Baby Learns Chinese 1	negative
1	Interesting Insight	Thomas Fleming is a historian that has written this account using primary documents. In this book he describes how General George Washington kept the ragged Continental Army intact in Pennsylvania during the winter of 1777-1778. He argues that after the British captured Philadelphia, Washington's rivals conspired to have him removed but he "outmaneuvered his political enemies and rescued the Revolution from extremism." I could not put the book down once I started reading.	positive
1	Better than you might expect	This is not a typical "B" Western. Jimmy Stewart plays a man with a dark side, and a dark past for a change. He had about given up Westerns because he found himself playing parts that were too similar too often. This one was different.Playing opposite Julie London, who played a saloon singer whose complaint was that everyone made passes at her, she fell into a situation (along with Stewart) where she was subjected to real brutality--tastefully handled. Lee J. Cobb played the heavy, and did his usual great job. Stewart was thrown back in with his old gang, from whom he had escaped once, and again was expected to rob banks and kill.The story was good, and the acting was superb, as might be expected from such a cast. A dark, forboding film, which will hold your attention.Joseph (Joe) Pierreauthor of Handguns and Freedom...their care and maintenanceand other books	positive
0	Great sound, but my ears get so hot	Good quality, solid build with excellent sound quality in both the microphone and ear phones. Can't use it though. They are too uncomfortable - way too tight. After 15-20 minutes my ears get unbearably hot! I am a big guy, with a fairly big head, but still, I am not Charlie Brown! I am retiring them immediately.	negative
1	Value for money	Good value for money. I plugged into my new XP machine, installed the required software and it works perfectly. Video mail option is not very effective. Inspite of several attempts, I get a very poor output. But the camera is really good and captures images at very low light. There are few add-on software that comes with the camera. Overall a good value for money, though one can expect a better results especially webcasting, and live streaming area.	positive
1	I love this knife	I have had this knife one day and I totally love it. It fits in my hand so well because of the way the blade is notched at the handle, I feel like I have total control of the knife. The blade is super sharp. I've used it to dice vegetables and cut up a roast to make stew. I even used it to cut up chocolate bars to use in my baking yesterday. And, it worked great for all of it.I've never had a knife like this before, usually I just buy the cheap ones and then get so frustrated when they aren't sharp enough after awhile. I've read many good reviews of the products that Rachel Ray has put her name on so I'm happy that I spent a few extra bucks on this, and hope to get a lot of good use from it in the years to come.	positive
0	Spoiler Alert	If I could give this book negative stars I would. I hated the main character. She seemed like Irish Ghetto and I was hoping she would be killed off before she birthed that little demon seed at the end	negative
0	cartridge	I did not give a good rating on this product only because, it is generic. The delivery service was fast and the price was cheap. You get for what you pay for.	negative
0	Disappointed	Received the video in a timely manner. Video quality was poor. Images were grainy and copy didn't run well though all other vhs tapes run fine on my video player. This was intended for use in my german language class but I am not sure I will use it.	negative
0	Don't get what you pay for.	Said it has the bonus episodes of the specials. The DVD I recieved did not. False advertising! I was not happy I believe you should get what you pay for.They are selling these DVDs under false pretenses.	negative
1	Once in a lifetime...	This is not one man's opinion but rather a personal story. Back in '94 my wife and I took a 20 minute helicopter tour of the Smoky Mountains. During the ride the first 4 songs from this disc were piped into the headsets. I spent the entire time filming with a bulky camcorder so it wasn't until later when I watched the video that I actually "heard" the music. It was amazing how the songs melded with the flight and the landscape below. There was another couple onboard & so there was a lot of chatter over the intercom. Using the original tape & this CD I was able to re-record the flight with music only in the background. Whoever picked this music for the in-flight background did an outstanding job. Superb!	positive
1	Excellent tool!	Definitely the best tool out there for the size and price. This has everything yu could possibly need, regardless of what you ride. I myself use a Catrike 700, and this is perfect for me. But it would work great on any bike or trike!	positive
0	streaky, don't work well	I bought these because I found a good deal on them. However, they leave suds and streaks on my stainless steel appliances. I purchased the Weiman brand and compared side by side. Weiman is by far better and worth the extra cost.	negative
1	Pricey but does the job	I purchased this camera last week and was able to set it up without much difficulty. Pros:1. Clear picture (slightly blurred around the edges, because of the bubble over the lens)2. Good hardware included for mounting - extra wire, putty, self bonding tape, extender for the arm3. Accessible through the viewnetcam.com website (free!)4. Decent setup software (although it seems to have been translated from Chinese or some other language)5. Solid build and nice looking, inconspicuous designCons:1. WEP security only - outdated2. Night vision is not great3. PriceyOverall this camera works well with my existing Panasonic netcam. The negative reviews here are valid, but this is a quality product.	positive
0	Voltageproblem	Unbelievable that global travel havent reached Palm TX. The adapter is for 110V only, which means forget to load the Palm outside the US (and maybe parts of Brazil). You come to 220V-countries and BOMMM the adapter is gone.Any laptop, CD-player, iPod....has an adapter for both 110 AND 220V.	negative
1	Addiction	I must admit that this book was given to me as a birthday present and I picked it up a few times and read the back cover and the first page.. but it always ended back up on my shelf. Not my type of book. Then out of desperation one night I picked it back up because I had nothing else to read... Wow! Once I got past the first couple of pages and I was sucked in! This is by far the best book I have ever read. I think I would have gone insane if there was not a series of them. I read this almost 1000 page book in 4 days. I think my husband was about ready to divorce me. I loved every minute of it. I too was thrown back in time with Claire. I am praying that this book becomes a movie and that Diana keeps writing books.	positive
1	OUTSTANDING	in reading george hawkins book, a bicycle journey to the bottom of the americas. i found it very deep and rivitting. it was a good account of his incredable bicycle trip in the americas. his style of wrieing is very down to earth, and easy to relate to. i especialy liked his discription of his trip to machu picchu, i could almost feel the spiritulness and tranquility of one of the most beautiful places in the world. i have suggested it as a must read to all my friends.	positive
1	The main selling point is inaccurate, misleading	I am a huge tea drinker and as you know, there are two key temperatures in the tea world: less than boiling (180F) and boiling (212). As far as I know, there are only two readily available variable temperature electric kettles on the market - the T-Fal Vitesse and one from Adagio Teas. I chose the former and have been using it for about 7 months.I assumed that since water can't get hotter than 212F, the highest (most right) setting would correspond to that. So the middle had to be roughly 180. I've brewed dozens of cups of tea, some for guests, some very expensive with this assumption.Today I brought in a thermometer and found the following:Low - 175 FMedium - 212 FHigh - 212 FThis is outrageous! Why make a product that is not truly variable or accurate and sell it as such?	positive
1	Libby Deid	That book was so sweet. It was amazing that someone so as young as Jack could have thought up such great, sad and funny questions about heaven and Libby. He must have a great imagination to think up such touching questions. Hes very good at similes in the book. It's cute that he compared dieing to being a jeanie in a bottle. I think the book was excellent. It was so touching I was crying with in 4 pages trough the book.	positive
0	A little unsettling.	I bought this for my baby but upon reading it decided to give it to my 3 year old. It is definetely written for an older child with reference to when he/she is a baby. I am not a religious person. I did not buy this book because it was written by a religious author. I thought that it would be a beautiful childs story based on some exerpts written in a review about it. After reading it I wish I would have saved my money. Although nicely written, the entire second half of it was strangely about dying and all the wonderful things about it. I don't feel motivated to read this to my son because afterwards I feel compelled to remind him of all the good things about living. Was this written for a child who must deal with death? If so, It is beautiful and very informative without being frightening. It would definetly help your child to overcome the death of a loved one.	negative
0	WHAT?!? NO WIDESCREEN?!?!?!?	OK, OK, OK... sigh.....Now I know that perhaps the core audience for this type of movie is p'rhaps tiny little children and that p'rhaps tiny little children don't really care, when their favorite iddy biddy heroines zip around the screen, if that screen is full or wide, but COME ON PEOPLE!!! No widescreen release at all!!!???There are so many dark and foreboding things said about our society when --despite the fact it was a major motion picture release, despite the fact that it was run in theaters just earlier this very year, and despite the fact that the original feature was produced in widescreen-- there is no widescreen DVD release offered to the viewers that do happen to care very deeply about these things!!!...deep breath... count to 10...I'm sorry, I'm just too emotionally disturbed to go on and on and on and on at this time. Hrrumph!!!	negative
0	Disappointing	I was very disappointed by this DVD. It's definitely not for beginners--there is no instruction whatsoever. The chapter entitled "Introduction to Yoga" consists of Denise talking about yoga, but gives no demonstrations or intructions on technique. Also, the description of the DVD on the back of the case says that there are three different workouts: one 30-minute and two 15-minute. In actuality, you must choose from 10 chapters:1. Intro to Yoga2. Cardio Conditioning3. The Warrior Series4. Balancing Stick Series5. Tree Pose Series6. Strength Conditioning7. Twist and Stretch8. Core Conditioning9. Obliques10. Focus on AbdominalsAgain, this is NOT for beginners. When you choose a chapter, you are just thrown into a workout, without any instruction (i.e. "Let's begin with a warrior pose"). Having never done yoga before, I have no idea what a warrior pose is. If you are a beginner, I recommend Yoga Journal's Yoga Step by Step.	negative
0	Awful isn't the word	I do not why I picked this book. Well, maybe I thought that just like the other MHC's this one would also eb excellent, only to find myself struggling with this so-called thriller and ultimately giving it up. This book has none of the amazing mystery of "Remember Me" or "A Stranger is Watching". Neither does it possess any of the nail-biting suspense of "Where are the Children" and "The Cradle Will Fall". Sometimes I wonder if it was really Ms. Clark who wrote this book. All about shoes, and a killer and lots of dancing make this 304 page book not a worth read at all!	negative
1	Solid as a snake	This game has been out for over a year now. It is quite the value now that it is a greatest hits package below $29.99. Graphics are fantastic. Sound is great. The story is very interesting. I do agree with some people in that there are a lot of cutscenes which can break up the action of the game. I find the cutscenes are very well done and move the story along.	positive
0	Scam	From what we know about physics and chemistry there is no way that this product can actually accomplish anything.There have been many fly-by-night companies that sell so called 'electronic water softeners', descalers, and so forth that have popped up and vanished over the years.If this process did work, there would be major appliance companies that would be making and marketing them.Do not buy.	negative
1	Nice but delicate	I bought this case for my 12 year old with his new 30gb iPod video. It's a good case for him because it prevents damage if he drops it and has a sturdy screen protector. Not just a thin plastic sheet. Only issue was that he removed it 3 or 4 times and a small tear appeared in the corner of the case around the screen.	positive
0	I was sorely dissapointed.	I'm not sure which was worse, the movie or the book, but either way, the book was a huge dissapointment. He builds us up to some climax, but in the end, it was a very dissapointing resolution. Almost as if the publishers said "Hey, Mikey, we need that book NOW, so FINISH IT. None of the themes were new, but I will say he DID manage to engage me for a while, which perhaps is why I felt so let down at the end.	negative
0	Less than satisfactory	This book looks much more like a collection of research papers thatthe authors put together than a book which could profit the student population.They are other books in the market that are more succint and to the point in approaching the topic of non linearity, a good buy remainthe two books of the late M.A.Crisfield	negative
1	Great travel ideas!	This book contains both luxury priced and reasonably priced options for places to stay and things to do. I like the options given for travel around the world, even to out-of-the-way places.	positive
0	Nasty black film after dishwasher	I replaced an old square skillet with this, and this one is about twice as big. A bit too big for cooking for 2. Also, it is too big to fit in my sink, to wash it. Since I can't wash it in the sink, when I put it in the dishwasher, it comes out with a nasty black film on the underneath metal part of the pan, and the film rubs off on EVERYTHING. So after the dishwasher cleans the inside, I have to scrub the bottom with a brush to get the black off. I would not buy again, just for that reason alone.	negative
0	RCA WSP150 900 MHz Wireless Speakers	I bought a pair of the speakers but could not get the transmitter to power up. Suspecting a bad connector, I returned the set to Radio Shack. I tried all possible combinations with 2 transmitters and 2 power supplies, but could not get either transmitter to sustain power. Seems like poor quality control to me. The Radio Shack salesperson admitted that they never got them to work in the store.	negative
1	O Holy Night is So Beautiful	Celine's rendition of "Oh Holy Night" is magnificent. I bought this CD last Christmas and listen to it year-round. I like all the tunes on the album but really love "Oh Holy Night". It's just beautiful.	positive
0	Screen too small	I had to buy this MP3 player, in order to download text through the public library system in my hometown, as their system is not compatible with an Ipod.I much prefer the Ipod.The screen is very small; hard to read.This unit is hard to turn on; have to hold button for 5 seconds.It is reported to play for 10 hours; I am lucky if mine works for 2.The rewind goes to the complete beginning of the whole book not the section.Cost was about 80 dollars, a lot less than an Ipod, and you get what you pay for; I don't recommend it	negative
0	not my favorite	There was just something off about how this story was told. I did not feel that the parents were well represented in this version of the story, and yet somehow it demonized physicians to a certain extent. There are better exemplars of culturally relevant care. I think younger generations will find this more offensive. Younger generations grew up being more culturally competent. For older generations, this book may seem wonderful but the idea of cultural competence is really new to them and they might be following cultural sensitivity (which is really a questionable model to follow).--Bruce Kinley	negative
1	Code Orange: My Favorite Caroline Cooney Book	Mitty Blake is a carefree hero. He is an average student, likes his parents and sister, and breezes through school with average grades. Everyone likes Mitty. When the terrorists kidnap him to get the smallpox virus scabs to destroy New York City, he uses what he learned from his parents to survive. Kids need to read books about good families and good kids. One of my favorite sections was when his worried sister came home to be with their parents while Mitty missing. A lot of books have single parent households, dysfunctional siblings and emotional problems. Code Orange had a close knit family, siblings who like each other, and an average guy who solved a major problem using his head. Code Orange is my favorite Caroline Cooney book.	positive
1	3:10 to Yuma?	So I watched this for the first time last night and all I have to say is, this was not what I expected. First off the 3:10 to Yuma is late... why name the movie 3:10 to Yuma it should had been the 3:22 to Yuma. Second I thought this was going to be a movie about trains... it was not, in fact there was barely anything about trains in this whole movie. While my 5 year old loves trains he said this movie scared him and he is now frighten of trains, and to be honest, I dont blame him.	positive
1	Informative with personality	This book is a must read for those with actual heart conditions but also for those with matters of the heart that aren't medically diagnosible. Taking care of the heart is more than just eating right, exercising and getting your rest. This book is proof of the need to take care of the heart on an emotion level as well.	positive
1	This game is great!	This game has been the best in the series. There is so much more to do. The characters are quirky and add humor to the game, you can form relationships with and raise your child. It's great.

1	The Breast cancer survival manual	This book has helped me in my treatment choices. I love the lay out and the real world information. Not scary just the facts no hearts and flowers. I have only just begun my battle with breast cancer. But this book lives in my bag that goes with me every where, doctor visits and just out to lunch. I find myself reaching for it to clarify info from doctors and to help friend and family to understand my treatment and options.This is a must read for breast cancer families.	positive

0	Good printer, but for only a few months.....	I have had this printer for almost two years and started noticing banding when printing. I knew ink was low so I paid $80 for new ink and installed it. Now the printer won't print anything but blank pages. After a hassle with customer service (which by the way, spoke broken English; can't stand that), I gave up and returned the ink to Target and bought a new HP printer. That is when I noticed the other reviews had similar problems printing blank pages. And who wants to spend $80 on ink? You can buy new printers for that much. Plus this printer is huge and bulky. Not a good printer.	negative
0	Coughed up an internal part	I received the HS600 for a gift. Loved the case, etc. Used it about twice before it dislodged and internal part that pretty much chewed up the internals. Thought about getting parts and fixing it but after reading the other reviews...maybe not.	negative
0	Not quite as good as Fever.....	Though 'Fever' is also riddled with filler, this is not Kylie's best work. The only truly good track is "Chocolate." "Slow" is kind of fun (and extremely bizarre-it sounds like video game music), too, though. "Red-Blooded Woman" is alright, as well. Another problem is that the album version of "Chocolate" isn't quite as good as the radio edit-it is longer and has some pretty effects in the background, but it just...doesn't sound as good. It's slower and there's less background music-it sounds more raw. "Sweet Music" also offers minimal enjoyment, but as a whole, this really is a poor album. "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" is guiltily addictive, but nothing here is nearly as good as that or even Fever's other hit, "Love At First Sight." This is a pretty mediocre album and frankly, I'm surprised it spawned any hits at all. It provides a few mild guilty pleasures, but overall she has far better.	negative

0	How could Chocolate be so bad?	No one could ever mistake JoAnna Carl for Joanne Fluke (writer of the Hannah Swenson Cookie Jar Series)! The character development was seriously lacking, the story was choppy, there was no emotion behind the words and it was not entertaining! The Chocolate facts between the chapters were the most interesting thing about the book but not really useful, they were more of a distraction than anything else.	negative
1	The Holocaust For Real	I have watchd many movies that "hollywoodize" the holocaust and use theatrics to depict what happened. "Night" is the most gripping tale of that horrific event I have read or seen. Kudos to Elie Wiesel for being able to control his emotions to write such a compelling, real-life, emotional story. He richly deserves the Nobel Prize.	positive

From looking back at all these reviews I really don't think this is the current case. In fact perhaps this DVD should be withdrawn.	negative

1	A great pot for large quantities, but a commitment	I would +1 all the positives from everyone else who reviewed this pot.For stove-top soup and sauce making, in large quantities. It is easy to clean, even though it doesn't have a "non-stick" coating, and the lack of such coating is why it has lasted this long.In reviewing my Amazon orders so I could review this, I see that I've owned most of my hard-anodized Calphalon for ten years. At the same time, I purchased a whole set of T-Fal cookware, which didn't perform as well and also didn't last--all those pieces are gone--evidence that buying quality cookware is a no-brainer.My one caveat is that you must figure out where you're going to keep it and where you're going to clean it before purchasing. Mine "lives" on top of my cabinets because it doesn't fit in them, and must be washed in the bathtub because it doesn't fit in the kitchen sink.	positive
0	Tedious	I am a moderate conservative, so I have a lot of common political and ideological background with Laura Ingraham. I was ready to enjoy this book, and it never happened. For one thing, its title deceived me; I thought this would be much more about how political celebrities have become. She spends a little time on that, but this is really an "everything" book for her--her manifesto, basically. For another, the tone--a sort of civilized "pissed off"--becomes tedious quickly, and she's not dexterous enough with the language to overcome it with clever word and phrase choice, as Ann Coulter can.I agreed with a lot of it, but what have I added to my mental inventory after nodding for four hours?Laura is wittier than this book reflects. Here's hoping her next effort is better.	negative

Short life span, good while it lasted.

I bought my Kodak Easyshare CX7330 in February of 2005. It did well although the older it got, the more it ate batteries. With the money I have spent on batteries I would have been better off getting one with a charger and a pack. I have also tried every type of AA battery out there and it is the camera itself with the issues. Now, 2 and a half years later it has taken it's last pictures. The trouble began with when I would turn it on the indicator light would pop up green, then immediately flash red and the lens would not extend out. Sometimes it would work, sometimes not. Now I can put fresh batteries in and if I hold it just right I can take a few pictures, then the low battery icon comes on the screen and it goes dead, even without retracting the lens. As I said, it was a great little camera while it lasted, but I think I will get something more hardy next time.

18 month old loves it!

We bought this for our son because he was interested in our tools when we would work on projects. After looking around, this looked like the ideal toy, and it's worked out great! The wrench and pliers actually open, the screwdriver works with the nails in the ruler. The belt sings and lights up. The reason I gave only 4 stars is that the hat is too big, and isn't lined. I've lined it myself, so it fits my son's head. Also the tool belt is a little loose when my son wears it...though he's on the thin side. My son will "fix" his toys, and can wear his tool belt for hours...it was a good purchase!

I have read more than my share of critically aclaimed long novels that other readers give up on and I usually love them. This one is not all that long but after 150 pages it sure felt like it. Tossed it in the trash in the Atlanta airport and stared at the wall instead. Less tedious that way.

cute shoe but elastic was too stretchy

The shoes are really cute and would probably work for a child who is 4 or 5 but for anyone smaller the elastic strap just doesn't hold the foot in the shoe like it should...the shoe would be far better with a buckle or a velcro closure...the elastic was just too stretchy and my daughter's foot would slip out making the shoe unwearable and in my opinion even a little dangerous.

Replacement Spools

Spool was a little tricky to put on only because you have to thread each line through the cover and keep tension on the line while replacing the cover or the line will unwind(quickly). Next time I replace the spool will try putting a clip on the line after it's threaded so that, hopefully, it'll more easily retain the tension. Either that or grow another hand.

Perfect

I needed a small baking dish and received the usual Corning Water excellence... with the bonus of a cover. Great. I'm sure I'll enjoy using it - it is just the right size for a 2-person casserole or fruit crisp... or mini pie. Corning Ware is perfect since pie crusts always brown better on the bottom in their dishes.

A Joke. Period

There are too many falsehoods in this book to even start describing them, and the fact that relatively-responsible atheists have repudiated this piece of trash is telling in itself. Those paranoid about creationists "forcing their views on others" must realize that it is militant atheists, and not creationists, who are trying to use the law to silence Christian expression and to remove every trace of anything religious from public life.

One of the best from this author

This book is a followup (not a true sequel, however) to Kill and Tell, which I thoroughly enjoyed. You don't have to read Kill and Tell in order to follow the flow of this book. But, K&T introduces the main character of this book, John Medina. I loved the characters in this book. Naima is gutsy but not to the point of emasculation. John is a man's man to the nth degree, but lets his guard down for Naima. But, he doesn't become some poor love smitten sap in the process, which I love. Story flows well, with good action sequences. As some have said, the love scenes are well crafted. Actually, Howard does love scenes with such great finesse, I think her books are worth picking up for that reason alone! I too was a little put off by the ending. I suppose I was expecting something more romantic. But, I suppose the actions suited these particular characters. When it comes to romantic suspense, Linda Howar is one of the best and this book is another example of that.

Thank you Mommy CD

This CD is great. It provides really nice activities. The CD is easy to navigate. Each day there is a different activity. Usually, in a month there will be a theme that you work on 4 times in that month. For example, in March there are 4 activities for spring. A new letter is introduced every two weeks. We are planning to homeschool, so this gave us a schedule to look at and a small activity to do everyday. I know it isn't available yet on Amazon, but Mommy CD also produces a Alphabet Play CD, which I recommend purchasing also. It has additional Alphabet activities which are great to incorporate into the week you are doing the letter.My daughter was 3 to 4 when using this CD. We started in September and have also used October.

A Very Fresh Interpretation of These Concertos.

The movie is still poor, but the DVD is good.

First off to those out there who are surprised or disappointed that there is no DTS version. Three little letters can answer that THX. THX is Lucas own sound, why would he produce a DTS version when what he wants is more people using THX. It doesn't matter whether DTS is better or not.The Phantom menace is still plauged by a poor script, poor directing and at times poor acting. The special FX are of an extremely high standard, as well as some new innovations.The DVD etras are very cool and worth it. The movie isn't trash. It just is not as good as it should have been. The DVD is well worth the money. And a good edition to your DVD libary.

The equivalent of carpet bombing your tongue

This sauce is so hot, that when I bought it many years ago, I threw out the bottle after using it for about a week. It was so hot that it was actually painful. And I'm someone who likes his food super extra spicy.Then I had another stroke of craziness a few months ago, and I bought a second bottle. This time I found that after about a week or so I could withstand the heat. So I continued to use it and now in fact I'm down to the last quarter of the bottle. But here's what I found: I can't seem to taste the spiciness as much. I don't know whether this is because my tolerance level has gone up, or if the taste receptors on my tongue and in my mouth have been totally incinerated. I suspect it's the latter.

Suspense (with romance)

When Hammond Cross, Assistant County Solicitor of Charleston, SC meets a mysterious woman at a county fair, he falls madly in love with her despite never knowing her name. Then, she shows up as a suspect in the high-profile murder he is prosecuting. He doesn't reveal his involvement with her right away, which makes things infinitely complicated for them both as the investigation progresses.Brown keeps us guessing right up until the end about which character the actual murderer is, and drops several juicy red herrings. All the individuals in the story are skillfully drawn with well-rounded personalities and each has a separate motivation for the murder. There is no clear `bad guy' in the tale, which makes it all the harder to pick from among them who the killer is. I would recommend this to any fan of romantic suspense, and even fans of mysteries, as the `romance' is less pronounced than others of this genre.

Interesting Insight

Thomas Fleming is a historian that has written this account using primary documents. In this book he describes how General George Washington kept the ragged Continental Army intact in Pennsylvania during the winter of 1777-1778. He argues that after the British captured Philadelphia, Washington's rivals conspired to have him removed but he "outmaneuvered his political enemies and rescued the Revolution from extremism." I could not put the book down once I started reading.

Better than you might expect

This is not a typical "B" Western. Jimmy Stewart plays a man with a dark side, and a dark past for a change. He had about given up Westerns because he found himself playing parts that were too similar too often. This one was different.Playing opposite Julie London, who played a saloon singer whose complaint was that everyone made passes at her, she fell into a situation (along with Stewart) where she was subjected to real brutality--tastefully handled. Lee J. Cobb played the heavy, and did his usual great job. Stewart was thrown back in with his old gang, from whom he had escaped once, and again was expected to rob banks and kill.The story was good, and the acting was superb, as might be expected from such a cast. A dark, forboding film, which will hold your attention.Joseph (Joe) Pierreauthor of Handguns and Freedom...their care and maintenanceand other books

I love this knife

I have had this knife one day and I totally love it. It fits in my hand so well because of the way the blade is notched at the handle, I feel like I have total control of the knife. The blade is super sharp. I've used it to dice vegetables and cut up a roast to make stew. I even used it to cut up chocolate bars to use in my baking yesterday. And, it worked great for all of it.I've never had a knife like this before, usually I just buy the cheap ones and then get so frustrated when they aren't sharp enough after awhile. I've read many good reviews of the products that Rachel Ray has put her name on so I'm happy that I spent a few extra bucks on this, and hope to get a lot of good use from it in the years to come.

Once in a lifetime...

This is not one man's opinion but rather a personal story. Back in '94 my wife and I took a 20 minute helicopter tour of the Smoky Mountains. During the ride the first 4 songs from this disc were piped into the headsets. I spent the entire time filming with a bulky camcorder so it wasn't until later when I watched the video that I actually "heard" the music. It was amazing how the songs melded with the flight and the landscape below. There was another couple onboard & so there was a lot of chatter over the intercom. Using the original tape & this CD I was able to re-record the flight with music only in the background. Whoever picked this music for the in-flight background did an outstanding job. Superb!

I must admit that this book was given to me as a birthday present and I picked it up a few times and read the back cover and the first page.. but it always ended back up on my shelf. Not my type of book. Then out of desperation one night I picked it back up because I had nothing else to read... Wow! Once I got past the first couple of pages and I was sucked in! This is by far the best book I have ever read. I think I would have gone insane if there was not a series of them. I read this almost 1000 page book in 4 days. I think my husband was about ready to divorce me. I loved every minute of it. I too was thrown back in time with Claire.

The main selling point is inaccurate, misleading

I am a huge tea drinker and as you know, there are two key temperatures in the tea world: less than boiling (180F) and boiling (212). As far as I know, there are only two readily available variable temperature electric kettles on the market - the T-Fal Vitesse and one from Adagio Teas. I chose the former and have been using it for about 7 months.I assumed that since water can't get hotter than 212F, the highest (most right) setting would correspond to that. So the middle had to be roughly 180. I've brewed dozens of cups of tea, some for guests, some very expensive with this assumption.Today I brought in a thermometer and found the following:Low - 175 FMedium - 212 FHigh - 212 FThis is outrageous! Why make a product that is not truly variable or accurate and sell it as such?

Libby Deid

That book was so sweet. It was amazing that someone so as young as Jack could have thought up such great, sad and funny questions about heaven and Libby. He must have a great imagination to think up such touching questions. Hes very good at similes in the book. It's cute that he compared dieing to being a jeanie in a bottle. I think the book was excellent. It was so touching I was crying with in 4 pages trough the book.

A little unsettling.

I bought this for my baby but upon reading it decided to give it to my 3 year old. It is definetely written for an older child with reference to when he/she is a baby. I am not a religious person. I did not buy this book because it was written by a religious author. I thought that it would be a beautiful childs story based on some exerpts written in a review about it. After reading it I wish I would have saved my money. Although nicely written, the entire second half of it was strangely about dying and all the wonderful things about it. I don't feel motivated to read this to my son because afterwards I feel compelled to remind him of all the good things about living. Was this written for a child who must deal with death? If so, It is beautiful and very informative without being frightening. It would definetly help your child to overcome the death of a loved one.

WHAT?!? NO WIDESCREEN?!?!?!?

OK, OK, OK... *sigh*.....Now I know that perhaps the core audience for this type of movie is p'rhaps tiny little children and that p'rhaps tiny little children don't really care, when their favorite iddy biddy heroines zip around the screen, if that screen is full or wide, but COME ON PEOPLE!!! No widescreen release at all!!!???There are so many dark and foreboding things said about our society when --despite the fact it was a major motion picture release, despite the fact that it was run in theaters just earlier this very year, and despite the fact that the original feature was produced in widescreen-- there is no widescreen DVD release offered to the viewers that do happen to care very deeply about these things!!!...deep breath... count to 10...I'm sorry, I'm just too emotionally disturbed to go on and on and on and on at this time. Hrrumph!!!

Disappointing

I was very disappointed by this DVD. It's definitely not for beginners--there is no instruction whatsoever. The chapter entitled "Introduction to Yoga" consists of Denise talking about yoga, but gives no demonstrations or intructions on technique. Also, the description of the DVD on the back of the case says that there are three different workouts: one 30-minute and two 15-minute. In actuality, you must choose from 10 chapters:1. Intro to Yoga2. Cardio Conditioning3. The Warrior Series4. Balancing Stick Series5. Tree Pose Series6. Strength Conditioning7. Twist and Stretch8. Core Conditioning9. Obliques10. Focus on AbdominalsAgain, this is NOT for beginners. When you choose a chapter, you are just thrown into a workout, without any instruction (i.e. "Let's begin with a warrior pose"). Having never done yoga before, I have no idea what a warrior pose is. If you are a beginner, I recommend Yoga Journal's Yoga Step by Step.

Awful isn't the word

I do not why I picked this book. Well, maybe I thought that just like the other MHC's this one would also eb excellent, only to find myself struggling with this so-called thriller and ultimately giving it up. This book has none of the amazing mystery of "Remember Me" or "A Stranger is Watching". Neither does it possess any of the nail-biting suspense of "Where are the Children" and "The Cradle Will Fall". Sometimes I wonder if it was really Ms. Clark who wrote this book. All about shoes, and a killer and lots of dancing make this 304 page book not a worth read at all!

Solid as a snake

This game has been out for over a year now. It is quite the value now that it is a greatest hits package below $29.99. Graphics are fantastic. Sound is great. The story is very interesting. I do agree with some people in that there are a lot of cutscenes which can break up the action of the game. I find the cutscenes are very well done and move the story along.

Scam

From what we know about physics and chemistry there is no way that this product can actually accomplish anything.There have been many fly-by-night companies that sell so called 'electronic water softeners', descalers, and so forth that have popped up and vanished over the years.If this process did work, there would be major appliance companies that would be making and marketing them.Do not buy.

Nice but delicate

I bought this case for my 12 year old with his new 30gb iPod video. It's a good case for him because it prevents damage if he drops it and has a sturdy screen protector. Not just a thin plastic sheet. Only issue was that he removed it 3 or 4 times and a small tear appeared in the corner of the case around the screen.

I was sorely dissapointed.

I'm not sure which was worse, the movie or the book, but either way, the book was a huge dissapointment. He builds us up to some climax, but in the end, it was a very dissapointing resolution. Almost as if the publishers said "Hey, Mikey, we need that book NOW, so FINISH IT. None of the themes were new, but I will say he DID manage to engage me for a while, which perhaps is why I felt so let down at the end.

Less than satisfactory

This book looks much more like a collection of research papers thatthe authors put together than a book which could profit the student population.They are other books in the market that are more succint and to the point in approaching the topic of non linearity, a good buy remainthe two books of the late M.A.Crisfield

Nasty black film after dishwasher

I replaced an old square skillet with this, and this one is about twice as big. A bit too big for cooking for 2. Also, it is too big to fit in my sink, to wash it. Since I can't wash it in the sink, when I put it in the dishwasher, it comes out with a nasty black film on the underneath metal part of the pan, and the film rubs off on EVERYTHING. So after the dishwasher cleans the inside, I have to scrub the bottom with a brush to get the black off. I would not buy again, just for that reason alone.

RCA WSP150 900 MHz Wireless Speakers

I bought a pair of the speakers but could not get the transmitter to power up. Suspecting a bad connector, I returned the set to Radio Shack. I tried all possible combinations with 2 transmitters and 2 power supplies, but could not get either transmitter to sustain power. Seems like poor quality control to me. The Radio Shack salesperson admitted that they never got them to work in the store.

Screen too small

I had to buy this MP3 player, in order to download text through the public library system in my hometown, as their system is not compatible with an Ipod.I much prefer the Ipod.The screen is very small; hard to read.This unit is hard to turn on; have to hold button for 5 seconds.It is reported to play for 10 hours; I am lucky if mine works for 2.The rewind goes to the complete beginning of the whole book not the section.Cost was about 80 dollars, a lot less than an Ipod, and you get what you pay for; I don't recommend it

not my favorite

There was just something off about how this story was told. I did not feel that the parents were well represented in this version of the story, and yet somehow it demonized physicians to a certain extent. There are better exemplars of culturally relevant care. I think younger generations will find this more offensive. Younger generations grew up being more culturally competent. For older generations, this book may seem wonderful but the idea of cultural competence is really new to them and they might be following cultural sensitivity (which is really a questionable model to follow).--Bruce Kinley

Code Orange: My Favorite Caroline Cooney Book

Mitty Blake is a carefree hero. He is an average student, likes his parents and sister, and breezes through school with average grades. Everyone likes Mitty. When the terrorists kidnap him to get the smallpox virus scabs to destroy New York City, he uses what he learned from his parents to survive. Kids need to read books about good families and good kids. One of my favorite sections was when his worried sister came home to be with their parents while Mitty missing. A lot of books have single parent households, dysfunctional siblings and emotional problems. Code Orange had a close knit family, siblings who like each other, and an average guy who solved a major problem using his head. Code Orange is my favorite Caroline Cooney book.

3:10 to Yuma?

So I watched this for the first time last night and all I have to say is, this was not what I expected. First off the 3:10 to Yuma is late... why name the movie 3:10 to Yuma it should had been the 3:22 to Yuma. Second I thought this was going to be a movie about trains... it was not, in fact there was barely anything about trains in this whole movie. While my 5 year old loves trains he said this movie scared him and he is now frighten of trains, and to be honest, I dont blame him.

Informative with personality

This book is a must read for those with actual heart conditions but also for those with matters of the heart that aren't medically diagnosible. Taking care of the heart is more than just eating right, exercising and getting your rest. This book is proof of the need to take care of the heart on an emotion level as well.

This game is great!

This game has been the best in the series. There is so much more to do. The characters are quirky and add humor to the game, you can form relationships with and raise your child. It's great. This version has so many more options than the first, you can even upgrade your crops, there are tons to choose from. It is the most realistic one yet. Buy the game and you'll see, it's awesome!

The Breast cancer survival manual

This book has helped me in my treatment choices. I love the lay out and the real world information. Not scary just the facts no hearts and flowers. I have only just begun my battle with breast cancer. But this book lives in my bag that goes with me every where, doctor visits and just out to lunch. I find myself reaching for it to clarify info from doctors and to help friend and family to understand my treatment and options.This is a must read for breast cancer families.

Good printer, but for only a few months.....

I have had this printer for almost two years and started noticing banding when printing. I knew ink was low so I paid $80 for new ink and installed it. Now the printer won't print anything but blank pages. After a hassle with customer service (which by the way, spoke broken English; can't stand that), I gave up and returned the ink to Target and bought a new HP printer. That is when I noticed the other reviews had similar problems printing blank pages. And who wants to spend $80 on ink? You can buy new printers for that much. Plus this printer is huge and bulky. Not a good printer.

Not quite as good as Fever.....

Though 'Fever' is also riddled with filler, this is not Kylie's best work. The only truly good track is "Chocolate." "Slow" is kind of fun (and extremely bizarre-it sounds like video game music), too, though. "Red-Blooded Woman" is alright, as well. Another problem is that the album version of "Chocolate" isn't quite as good as the radio edit-it is longer and has some pretty effects in the background, but it just...doesn't sound as good. It's slower and there's less background music-it sounds more raw. "Sweet Music" also offers minimal enjoyment, but as a whole, this really is a poor album. "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" is guiltily addictive, but nothing here is nearly as good as that or even Fever's other hit, "Love At First Sight." This is a pretty mediocre album and frankly, I'm surprised it spawned any hits at all. It provides a few mild guilty pleasures, but overall she has far better.

How could Chocolate be so bad?

No one could ever mistake JoAnna Carl for Joanne Fluke (writer of the Hannah Swenson Cookie Jar Series)! The character development was seriously lacking, the story was choppy, there was no emotion behind the words and it was not entertaining! The Chocolate facts between the chapters were the most interesting thing about the book but not really useful, they were more of a distraction than anything else.

The Holocaust For Real

I have watchd many movies that "hollywoodize" the holocaust and use theatrics to depict what happened. "Night" is the most gripping tale of that horrific event I have read or seen. Kudos to Elie Wiesel for being able to control his emotions to write such a compelling, real-life, emotional story. He richly deserves the Nobel Prize.

I have to be honest and say that I expected a lot more.

Well at least I haven't waited for 20 years to see this...! What are these guys on? The idea is good but the finished article falls well short of expectations. It's a shame the Van Halen camp didn't get involved in the making of this DVD because it could have been put together very nicely. Perhaps if the makers of this DVD negotiated some deal with the Band then another DVD could be released that really does kick *** and then everybody will be happy ! From looking back at all these reviews I really don't think this is the current case. In fact perhaps this DVD should be withdrawn.

A great pot for large quantities, but a commitment

I would +1 all the positives from everyone else who reviewed this pot.For stove-top soup and sauce making, in large quantities. It is easy to clean, even though it doesn't have a "non-stick" coating, and the lack of such coating is why it has lasted this long.In reviewing my Amazon orders so I could review this, I see that I've owned most of my hard-anodized Calphalon for ten years. At the same time, I purchased a whole set of T-Fal cookware, which didn't perform as well and also didn't last--all those pieces are gone--evidence that buying quality cookware is a no-brainer.My one caveat is that you must figure out where you're going to keep it and where you're going to clean it before purchasing. Mine "lives" on top of my cabinets because it doesn't fit in them, and must be washed in the bathtub because it doesn't fit in the kitchen sink.

Tedious

I am a moderate conservative, so I have a lot of common political and ideological background with Laura Ingraham. I was ready to enjoy this book, and it never happened. For one thing, its title deceived me; I thought this would be much more about how political celebrities have become. She spends a little time on that, but this is really an "everything" book for her--her manifesto, basically. For another, the tone--a sort of civilized "pissed off"--becomes tedious quickly, and she's not dexterous enough with the language to overcome it with clever word and phrase choice, as Ann Coulter can.I agreed with a lot of it, but what have I added to my mental inventory after nodding for four hours?Laura is wittier than this book reflects. Here's hoping her next effort is better.
