Fabulous and Inspiring...
Robin McKinley has been my imagination's hero since my Mom had the good grace to get The Blue Sword for me in my early teens sometime. Like most, the beginning seemed a tad ponderous to me, but the tension growing and plot climax was WELL worth it. For a time I thought I was the only one to TRULY appreciate her inspiration...she doesn't write as prolifically as other fantasy authors, but another thing to separate her from the crowd is okay by me!! In my vulnerable years I wished I was more like the Blue Sword heroine. Reading this book was something like a gift to my dreams...:) I've always wanted to thank her...

Old Memories
I remember watching these stories when they originally came out on TV, and I wanted my son to experience it too. Though some are a little slower than I remember, there are still moments in there for every age to enjoy, and it is fun to see the older stars when they were younger.

The ultimate guide to Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko!
The Gex 3 Strategy guide from Prima is very useful, and very fun to use. It shows every tip and trick you need to destroy the evil Rez and save Xtra from the depths of a media dimension! Plus, it has secret codes that you can use in the GEX Vault to make yourself a Gexcellent (excellent) player! Displaying maps of every theme, translating Alfred the turtle's misunderstandable quotes of wisdom, and showing full-color snapshots of the tricky environments is what this great book has to offer! WARNING N64 OWNERS: One secret level, one bonus level, and the Mythology (Greek) Channel level are the only three backgrounds/settings that were made only for the Playstation (Teen rated) version, and are much different from the Nintendo 64 version (rated Everyone). But don't get discouraged, N64 users. This book can still be fun for you!

Awesome for the price that is!
Purchased it from (something like out post.com ) for $299.I'm happy with it especially for the price paid. Used built in unit in Mercedes 300E and it has larger screen and all but it was very expensive option. Beauty of this device based on pocked pc is that you can take it with you anywhere! Set up was simple but noticed that map is bit outdated as noted by other reviewers.GPS at times took a while to lock on but once it locked stayed the course. And placing it on windshied meant I don't have to take my eye off too.I'd give 4 only due to the outdated map.

bad paper quality.
I bought this as one of my collection of Classics. Everyone knows that the novel itself deserves a five star. However, the poor paper quality does not match the quality of the content.

A good book, but not on the level of the previous ones
I was disappointed with this one. I mean, don't get me wrong; I was good, and i enjoyed it, but like I said, it just didn't live up to Wizard's First Rule and Stone of Tears. It was, however, several orders of magnitude better than Blood of the Fold. The only reason to read Blood of the Fold is so that you're not lost when you pick up Temple of the Winds. The series as a whole, though, is incredible. Okay, so the fact that Richard is Darken Rahl's son is cliche, (imagine Rahl saying, in a low, breathy voice, "Richard... I am your father. Come over to the dark side) but overall, it's good. Even though the plot devices are a bit banal, the writing has been impecable throughout, even in Blood of the Fold. So, what I'm trying to say here is, read this series, but don't rate it on a book-by-book basis. You'll be much more satisfied that way.

An Obvious Crowd-Pleaser
I saw this piece of work in the theaters, and at the time I thought it was okay. Seeing it for the second time here made me reconsider. This movie blows. Sure, there's plenty of action, and little else. Will Smith plays a fighter pilot, Jeff Goldblum a computer expert, and Bill Pullman plays the President in this film. This movie, in which aliens invade the Earth, cannot be called science fiction. Science fiction is Star Wars, 2001, and Starship Troopers. This movie does do exactly what it set out to do. The special effects are incredible, the sound is extremely good, the alien ships do look, alien. On the other hand, the aliens themselves are laughable, as is the "plot", which should make comic-book writers shudder. Pancake characters round out this film that was so successful the first time they are selling it again so that the company can get more cash to make more movies like this. So if you want an post-lobotomy action movie, you've come to the right place.

My little sister LOVES it!
I gave it five because 10 wasn't available! Ignore the negative review. Why, you ask? Because my six-year-old sister reads it every night, and she never gets bored.Children are often brainwashed about wolves. Not to mention everything else. Stereotypes are ridiculous- and this book shows it. The illustrations are beautiful. Unless your sister/children are afraid of the food chain, get this book for them!

Excellent articles
I like reading the Investor's Business Daily and this is an inexpensive way to get the paper. I suppose there is some valid comments about missing charts. You don't get the graphical chart content in this newspaper, but I have always found the paper to have well written articles. I particularly like the article Leaders & Success that comes out periodically in the paper. The Kindle version comes with a nice pop up sections list that keeps track of where you are in the paper. I find myself reading straight through, but at times wondering where I am in the paper, I pop it up. The formatting is good. I haven't discovered yet if my subscription allows me access to their online content. That would be a nice perk.

Not great...
I bought this lamp because my halogen lamp put out so much heat, it was nearly unusable. I wanted something that I could put a CF bulb into to save on heat production (and energy usage). The price was a big selling point, and it looked good enough in the pictures.This lamp isn't very well made. The connection between the base and the arm is very loose (wobbles side-to-side, back and forth, and rotates with barely any force at all. Also, the switch (built into the back of the head) is very flimsy and doesn't fit on the head straight.I'm keeping it, but only because I need a lamp that I can use and don't want to spend over $100 on one--but I'm not happy.

Kindle Users Beware!
This could have been a good buy and an excellent source for any teacher. In the kindle version I received and will return, some of the text (eg., selections from Aeschyus) is too small to read and can't be enlarged. The maps. charts. and valuable lists have the same problem. It is a production problem that is, at best, inane. It makes the entire work a dud.This is a pity. Their introduction is good, a miracle from academics, and is designed as a tool for teaching.

Awful waste of money
I exercise regularly and part of my routine is the use of fitness videos. I own several Yoga videos so I beleive I have a good basis of comparison. This video was awful and expensive too (compared to the Yoga Journal series). Hilary's queing was OK for the first mat work section although it was difficult to know when to inhale and exhale. You are well into the video before Hilary mentions that you will need a towel, weight and bar. They should put that in the video description. The worst part was the "Power Stretch" where the was NO queing at all. How can you follow along!? It was great if you want to watch her dance. I wanted a video I could work along with.

The first Jazz album you should buy.
One of Miles' better bands. Though I miss Philly Jo Jones (early to late 50's Miles Davis quintet), Jimmy Cobb lays the groove as it should be laid and it's tough to beat the combination of "Cannonball" and Trane. Also, take it from a bassist, Paul Chambers is amazing. Bill Evans isn't my favorite piano player, but his style cmpliments the other musicians nicely. The horns are this album's biggest attributes. We've seen Miles play with everybody (and that's no exageration), but these tracks represent great creative tention by three of the best soloist ever.

Blank Movie!
I finally found a movie worse than "Lady Godiva Rides".The actors and actresses in this movie must have worked for free. Marsha Jordan getting undressed was the highlight of the moviebut they killed her off too early.The actor and male stars must have been handymen at the studio who decided to be actors. Georgia's husband was horrible. The step daughter was just as bad.If you can find a plot to this movie go public with it.Thismovie is even worse than "Plan 9 From Outer Space".Don't buy this movie,find one and steal it.

Very Good Plot, For Audio Title, Don't get the Roger Moore
version. I've read a few of the Higgins' books, and listened to more. THUNDER POINT brings Sean Dillion into the Fergueson's fold, and the book is a quick read; however, if you are into the audio versions, you might want to avoid the Roger Moore version. His diction is rather (SURPRISE!) wooden. There's a new audio, unabridged at that, coming out in June 2003. I'm hoping that it is better. Too bad Patrick Macnee didn't read this one, too.

Spend your money on something else!
Recently my old Philips headphones broke on me, and since I loved the old ones which had terrific bass and treble, I decided to buy another Philips set. I was really disappointed from the moment I first wore these. The highs and lows are completely off. It has good treble, but a very weak bass which really makes a lot of songs seem dull. I'm going to throw these out since I lost the bill, seriously they are not worth your money. Either pay a little more and get something better, or pay less for another pair, because these are just horrible. I really believe all these people giving this product a good review, were either paid, or work for Philips.

Unstructured, inauthentic, tawdry
"The Calling" may get high marks in high places, but one who knows about the real life of nuns may, with me, feel outrage about it. The material seems to genuinely engage the writer and her collaborating editors. They know that so-called inside stories about nuns make hot copy . One does not get a sense of serious archival research into the history of nuns; rather one catches echoes of snippets from journalistic sources. Better read Kathleen Norris' "Dakota" or Patricia Hampl's "Virgin Time" for realism with depth into what occurs in monasteries and convents. Instead of the pages in this book on prison minstry, take a look at Helen Prejean's "Dead Man Walking" or even see the film. This is a poor book by "non-fiction" standards and merely exploits stories perpetuating images of nuns as romantic, immature, ignorant, and gullible. It is trash.

Read the reviews of this version, knew already there would be three releases, hate the price gouging but not gonna wait until November to get a better version, which I will also purchase, so big business may win this one. But they have hundreds of other movies I haven't purchased, which I often watch once from Netflix and I am usually done. Overall I think I am ahead! ;-)Amazon does rock, I love that I got this by 10 A.M.

Mathematically rigorous and lucid, mostly
I used the 2nd edition, 1983, in my undergraduate physical chemistry courses, because one of the lecturers strongly recommended it. Physical chemistry is not an easy subject, but this book provides both concepts and machinery to give a good general grounding. The shaded boxes are useful for the core material.Certainly it wasn't deep enough for the specialist spectroscopic work of my Ph.D. thesis. But this wasn't its intention - it was pretty good for my non-spectroscopist classmates. It's unreasonable to demand great depth in selected parts of a huge field like physical chemistry in a general text book. It would be hard to beat.

It's an All-Clad!
Heard on the news that teflon may be a cancer causer, and since all my frypans had that teflon coating, and having eaten meals cooked in teflon for many years, I couldn't wait to rush out to get a "naked" one.I'm in the process (slow) of changing over to the best in cookware, and already have some other All-Clad pots, so I decided to choose this All-Clad frypan as my frypan of choice for making my morning eggs (the cholesterol in eggs is taken care of by the lecithin also present, so eggs are healthy!).I still have to get the hang of heating the pan to the proper temperature before I put the eggs in it, to prevent the eggs sticking (using olive oil to coat the pan) to the surface. So used to teflon cooking...However, the pan itself is beautiful, balanced, and just the right size for one or two people or for sauteeing, and cleans up well. It's a joy to use.

A real redeemer
Roger Simon has a terrific sense of how our political identities are rooted in so much more (or less) than the depth or purity of our ideas. We identify with those who are the models for the kind of person we think we are, or the group to which we want to belong, and in the process we lose sight of our real political objectives, if we ever knew what they were in the first place. This book explores this dilemma for Moses Wine as he grapples with his own personal history of the sixties in investigating the murder of the woman who symbolizes both his love and politics at that time. Now he must ask again, what really motivates our search for truth? I won't impose my solution to this fascinating mystery.

Ah.. the Arcade...
I always begged my parents to play this game in an arcade. Finally my endless begging has come to an end!Time Crisis 3 is probably one of the overall better games for the PS2. Just like its arcade counterpart, this game is a blast to play! The graphics and sound effects are exactly like the game we're all used to playing... Maybe even BETTER!!!!! Some people complain about the cramped split-screen 2 player function. However, they left out the fact that you can connect 2 PS2s together and play on seprate screens...Just like the arcade! Overall, this is an excellent game that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a new and fresh experience.

Love the Album, Hate the Remaster
I was SO looking forward to hearing this remastered CD because War is by far my favorite U2 album, largely because it was my introduction to the band back in the early 80s. I was also really looking forward to the remaster because I always thought that the original War album sounded incredibly tinny with very little low end. I was hoping the remaster would fix this, but it really does not. What a bummer! One listen to Sunday Bloody Sunday shows how little "bottom" there is to this remaster (and the original). When the bass guitar finally kicks in at about 0:30, you have to listen to hear it practically. The bass simply has no punch on the remaster. Despite this I still love the album, but I hate the remaster. Don't buy this just for the remaster.

Beautifully written
As soon as I picked up this book, I was transported into India and the lives of these two women. The descriptions and emotions brought out in this book are amazing. Since I just finished reading "The Help," I couldn't help but see the parallels here with how the servant and ruling classes relate. The story beautifully illustrates how looks can be deceiving and that money isn't everything although we often think it is.

Truth
A great book about a teenager's innocent belief in truth comically set in anywhere-small-town-america. Goodness is superceded by eating, selfishness, media power and commercialism yet told from the perspective of a young teenager trying to understand the grown-up world. If you can get past the overuse of the f-word (which is not the way it is used in Texas), it is a quick read with more meanings on a deeper level the second time through. Written from an author with an outsider's viewpoint, the culture and character are given development from an outsider's angle which gives one pause about truth in our culture.

Bought this on sale, and glad I didn't pay full price. I used a few times and the metal cable burned nearly through (so now it's hanging by a few threads).

I'll stick with my digital instant-read one.

Not Worth It
The basic idea that complexity can be obtained by very simple rules is not new. The idea that the Universe, in all its complexity, may be a result of very simple (computational) rules is not new. And looking at lots (and I mean *lots*) of fractal-like, cellular automata, game of life like, black and white pictures is no fun at all. The pictures tell you nothing. You need to understand the text to understand the pictures. But if you understand the text, you don't really need the pictures. (A few pictures would be o.k., but hundreds is not good.)I think the basic info in this book, the basic theme, could be written in under 100 pages. This is not a "how to" book. It doesn't tell you how to replace current math, physics, etc. with something new. It only suggests that it might be possible to do so by considering "it all" as computation and by finding/defining simple computable systems.Some interesting ideas. For me, not many new ideas. Glad I didn't buy the book. (Borrowed a copy.)

TERRIBLE BOOK
I did not like the book Call Waiting because it was not enough bloody murder. The plot was really not for male teens. A lot of the stuff Karen, main character, does is so weird. I didn't like when you had to keeping on reading until you understand the book. Some of the parts in the book were so weird.I recommend this book to many female teens who like mystery books. I also recommend it to all readers who like reading mystery books because this book has a very good ending that any reader could not guess.

I remember when "No Matter What" came out on the radio and I thought, "Did the Beatles reunite?!!!" I hoped Badfinger would be the "new Beatles" and bought "Straight Up". After recently buying this CD, I was disappointed to the point that tonight I put "Straight Up" on my wishlist to replace the album. I bought this CD mostly for "No Matter What", otherwise I would sell it. If you want non-stop GREAT songs from Badfinger, there is nothing better than "Straight Up".

Not Worth Your Money!
First things first, I really liked NSync's first CD, and yes, you could say that I was a fan. But their 2nd CD is a HUGE downfall. It lacks originality and inspiration. NSYNC seems to be straining. NSYNC just don't fit the RAP/Hipp Hop image that they are going for (obviously). The only songs worth hearing are BYE BYE BYE and THIS I PROMISE YOU. Other than that, stay away from this CD.Obviously, unlike the BSB who HAS TALENT AND ORIGINALITY, NSYNC is fan based by those 10-17 year old girls. All NSYNC wants to strive for is to get a certain RESPECT and win over the BSB by album sells. They will be remembered for their FAN-BASED album sells but not their TRUE TALENTS. They have NO talent whatsoever.If you want to hear some good music, check out Backstreet Boys' 'Millenium' or NSYNC's FIRST album. They are much much better. Only wild fans who don't care about the CD's content would get this junk CD!

Received 2002 version!! Not Widescreen!!
I ordered the 2002 version when it originally came out and the discs 2 and 3 were Pan and Scan with black bars at the top and bottom to make it appear it was widescreen. I heard the 2005 version, like advertised on this page had the corrected 2 and 3 discs. I ordered from this description, what did I get? the 2002 version again, saying 2002 on all three discs!! With the same problem on discs 2 and 3. I went to the description page again, and then the Back to the Future Trilogy was under review. I went through the return process with a "refund" being my only option. Hopefully I get refunded the entire amount or the correct version this time.

Spectacular animation - Great transfer to DVD
This is without question the best animation Disney has ever done. Many of the scenes look almost as if they somehow blended live action video as background art. After viewing the horrible grainy video transfer to DVD Disney did with Pocahontas, you will definately appreciate the fantastic job Disney did on this DVD. The sound quality is also great, with THX no less. The story is wondefully written, although it may be a bit too intense for a child under the age of 5 or 6. Tarzan is a wonderful DVD that is well worth the investment.

Not as good as the lighter set
I have both the 3lb and 5lb sets of wrist weights. The 3lb set is great and the primary reason why I bought the 5lb set. Unfortunately, all the things that are great about the 3lb set make the 5lb set bad, because it seems like they used the exact same wraps and just pushed in more weight. The 5lb set barely gets around my wrists, and hangs on by only 1/2 inch of velcro. They're also not as flexible as the lighter set, and even though I've had the 3lb set 2 years longer than the 5lb set and use the 3lb set twice as often, it's the heavier set that is threadbare and leaking grains.I recommend the 3lb set, but unless Weider changes the 5lb set to allow it to fit the same as the lighter weights I can't recommend the heavier set.

I bought this book to give me a quick boost on Linux and Knoppix as a whole. As with a number of these "Hack" books there is usually a good pearl or Hack to make the book worth while.This book certainly does that and for someone who need quick tips this book certainly helps. I would consider this a key book for any sys admin's tool kit as it is very useful in support MS OS systems.

You'd be better off with a box of crayons
The 3d view is very limited, you can walk through but you can't tilt your viewing angle vertically. The objects are very basic and there isn't much of a selection. The "12 powerfull programs in 1" is rediculous. The plumbing "program" is just a few bathroom objects that you can place in your house. The electrical and HVAC are just like the plumbing. Autoframing is useless. If you decide to change something you can't drag a box around everything and update them all at once. Example: i wanted to change my wall hieght, i had to right click on every wall, select "wall properties" from the menu, and then highlight a box and change it. And i had to do that for every wall seperately. The lanscaping feature where it changines the plants to show how they will look in 5 years just scales up some flat images of the plants.

the worst
Saw this movie at a free screening, didn't really want to because it looked lame. I should have stayed home and cleaned my toaster oven. I mean is Hollywood this desperate for material. They didn't look like any white chicks I've ever seen. They looked more like back up members for Marilyn Manson. We all know the cost (for 2) of seeing a movie, and with drinks and popcorn it's a pretty penny. Trust me stay home, rent a movie at your local vdeo store and bake some brownies. It's going to be a much better and more affordable night, because "White Chicks" ~is one of the lamest comedies to come around in a loooong time.

A bit dry
Some of the videos in the famous authors series are wonderful. I particularly like the Emily Dickinson one. However, this one was very dry. For a man who is so interesting, this video made 30 minutes about him seem very long. The students I showed it to were unfortunately bored.

How did I miss this band?
I must have slept through the nineties music scene. After seeing a bit of a TV special on Hole, I bought this CD. This is what punk rock (and rock and roll) is (or should be) all about. I was on a long drive, and listened to it three times in a row. Gets better every time. My fourteen year old son wants to burn a copy. This one is already on my all time favorite album (disc) list.

Handbook for starting your own religion!
This video is what happens when a bunch of new-age, B-list shrinks and stage performers get together for a few drinks. Although I have to admit, I've been concentrating on how bad it sucked, and ...it still sucks! Maybe they're right after all!

Good Story, Fast Read
This book's story was a little strange, but also good. I found it interesting that Rosie's best friend, Bailey, was blind. Bailey did pretty much everything a normal kid would do. I also liked how the title fit the story so well. It was weird how the time changed from the present to when Granny Torrelli was little and how everything that happened to Granny Torrelli when she was young happened to Rosie. It was a fast read and I liked the way Granny Torrelli talked. She used interesting Italian phrases.

Good study guide
I think that this is a good study guide. There are a couple of problems with study questions and answers being misnumbered, but they are not, in fact incorrect. An observant reader will quickly notice this and account for it, otherwise the book is great.

terrible
I bought this because of my fondness for vampire movies, and because of the great reviews. my copy is dubbed, and maybe that's what's wrong with it, but it was terribly boring, almost beyond boring. unfathomable, the positive ratings. maybe it's that the dubbing was so wooden(as it usually is) but I wouldn't recommend this to anybody.

A Neo-Pagan Book
A Neo-Pagan BookThis is a neo-pagan book. Most of the chapters begin with a pagan initiation, whose spirituality consists of an ego trip of feelings.The book contains some elements of distorted Christianity tossed in to confuse the reader, who expects to follow in the footsteps of the classical pilgrims, on their journey to Santiago de Compostella.Nausicaa

It's Fine
It makes an OK pot of coffee and does it quickly. I have a little problem reading the measurement marks on the inside, wish it had a clear knob on top to see it percolating and I kind of wish it was insulated so I didn't have to keep it plugged in or transfer the coffee to another pot when done.Let me reiterate... it makes an OK, about mediocre cup of coffee. I've tried a few varieties of StarBucks as well as common brands such as Folgers and Chock Full... It is just OK. I'm not sure if it is better than an ADC maker for the extra effort involved.

I have to believe ...
I have to believe that this is one of Hugh Grant's first movies. The acting is reminiscent of a high school production. Don't get me wrong, I think Hugh is a terrific actor, just not in this. The story line is so-so to marginally OK. Wish I could like it more.

Really Great CD
Ok, i know there are some people that have written bad things about this album, but i really like it.I wasnt keen on the whole screaming thing to begin with on other bands, but the way finch have done it, i dont see the big deal with hating it so much anymore.Pretty much all the tracks are really very good. I tried to pick some of the best ones, but ended up writing most of them down anyway, so i gave up on that.Bad points:Perfection Through Silence and The last bit of Ender i think put me down a bit, but not much. There arent really any other bad things about this cd.Good Points:The energy they put in is great! They are my favourite Band at the moment, and my favourite tracks are: New Beginnings, Stay With Me, Grey Matter and What It Is To Burn. (I like basicallly all the tracks, but i had to pick some songs)Id recommend this album to everyone, becuase its awsome!

Thanks Chuck
...and the 1 star off just because the ending wasn't bloody enough. I loved reading Haunted. It took my mind off reality and just changed how I look at everyday chores. People are really messed up, what can only be a fragment of your imagination can easily become reality. It's good to know that I haven't figured out everything, that people who are capable of having more disgusting thoughts than I do really exist. In terms of making me feel queasy, which is why most people seem to feel that this book is bad, I think that the 140 year old vampire- teenage girl sex scene in Breaking Dawn was far more disgusting. The human mind is programmed to look at negative and positive possibilities. In this book, the negative has been enhanced into something comprehensive. Thanks Chuck.

Much better than the newer switches!
Once upon a time, the big names in light switches - Leviton, Lightolier and Cooper - made electronic dimming switches that worked correctly. You tap the top to turn it on, and the bottom to turn it off. You hold the top to brighten, and the bottom to dim.Now-a-days, the name-brand switches have moved to a bizarre "tap the bottom to toggle" model. This doesn't work for anyone I know, especially in a house like ours where many of the light switches are in places where you can't easily see the lights, such as the garage, deck, some bathrooms.This switch works as it should. The top brightens, the bottom dims. It cannot handle flourescents and the side fins may need to be trimmed off (they're designed for that; wriggle them with a pair of pliers a few times and off they pop) to fit in a multi-gang (side-by-side light switch) box. But other than that, it's about perfect.

Fun mystery
John Pellam is a great hero! Having gone for a while without a Deaver book fix, I was happy to see that this Location Scout Mystery is in reprint.Scouting a movie location in small-town Cleary, NY, Pellam and his young partner, Marty, are just happy to be almost finished with finding prime shooting locales for the next Hollywood blockbuster. Unfortunately, this small town isn't as thrilled with them, and after a horrible murder, John finds himself fighting for his life, fighting for his reputation and acting as novice detective to clear his name. Along the way, Deaver throws in oddball locals, a love interest, and a twisting, surprising conspiracy.This was a fun read, and I enjoyed it all the way through. The writing is a bit different than some of Deaver's more recent works, but this is a good thing! I'm anxiously awaiting the reprint of the next 2 Location Scout books. Buy this one and enjoy; it doesn't disappoint.

How about the whole series on DVD for Christmas????
If that can't happen, I'm at least thrilled to have these on DVD. Wonder Years was one of the finest series on television and I wish they'd clear the music rights (I assume that's what holds this one up?!) and get the series out on DVD!For now, Kevin and Winnie - and an old vinyl LP - wish you a merry Christmas.

So this is it?
I looked forward to reading this novel with all the glowing reviews but in retrospect I wish I had paid more attention to the 1 star reviews. They were 100% right.There is not a single aspect of this novel I can recommend. The writing is ordinary, nothing exceptional at all. The storytelling? It's like reading the newspaper, flat and uninteresting. The story itself? Ok, there are a few interesting scenes, some shocking ones, too, but most of the book goes nowhere, even when it is covering years and decades, which is a neat trick. It has no energy whatsoever.One of the very worst novels I have read in a long long time.

Looksgreat - really needs an instruction sheet for assembly.
Once the lamp was finally assembled, I was quite please by its looks. My friends have complimented it too. But putting it together was a nightmare. Fortunately I was warned by other reviewers about this and took a lot of time to see what was needed. Even so, a nice product like this should have decent assembly instructions. Do not expect this lamp to light up a room. The bulbs are harshly bright, forcing me to use the dimmer. But as a contemporary decor piece, it is terrific.

why is this so well liked
Perhaps this should be considered a cult film because the only people who claim to like this movie all fit the same description. I just can't enjoy any of Smith's works. I have seen to many films to give him the credit everyone else seems to do.

Uneven, but very good
As one begins reading this book Phillip Dick comes to mind. That however is not a bad thing. The first 11 chapters seem to really interest me, then it kind of went into a lull. Around chapter 30 or so it gets interesting again. It is a good read though, but Dick did it better. (Even though Dick came after Simak)

clear descriptions
The book is pitched towards a final year of high school or a first undergraduate year. Where the latter is perhaps for a non-chemistry major. Moore writes straightforwardly about basic concepts like Avogardro's Number and molarity.There is also some coverage of organic chemistry. Of necessity, this goes little beyond definitions of the main organic types, like ethers, esters and aldehydes. Organic chemistry has a rich network of synthesis pathways that the text can only touch the fringes of. Yet hopefully, a keen student might be encouraged enough to remember these terms and even venture deep into chemistry.

Excellent Service!!
I have had the Vonage service for about a month over my cable modemservice from Optimum online and it is clear and works as well as my prior telephone line from Verizon. It has saved me nearly 75$ per month from my prior bills. They also now have 911 service! I would highly recommend you try the service... BTW their customer service depatment was very helpful as well.

True "Revenge of the Nerds"
Let's face it, Hollywood movies usually get real people's lives all wrong. Doctors make instant diagnoses, cops can hit a dime at a hundred yards, cops never sit at a desk filling out paperwork, and nerds are pretty people who happen to wear glasses."Napoleon Dynamite" is a strange movie, but the people in it are real nerds, all the folks you knew who had serious trouble relating to others - and didn't suddenly become party animals after smoking a joint.If you want to see a pretty funny comedy with characters who seem like real people, albeit very eccentric ones, check this one out.
