0	A Let Down	I had to read this for my college history class, and I was super excited because the author and I share the same name, but I was very disappointed with this book. Perhaps it was not my type of book, but I had to make myself read it and found it quite dry and boring.	negative
0	:( Not good	I love Sherlock Holmes and I am highly lenient in the way different movies and television shows portray him, but I was highly disappointing by this film. Initially, i was intrigued by the movie's premise, but I could not watch more than twenty minutes of this program without feeling as though I am wasting my time. :(	negative
0	What a waste of time!	I read chic-lit, a lot. I found myself truly disappointed in this book. What a waste of time!	negative
1	composter review	Excellent product. Directions make it easy to use. A person probably needs two to keep a constant flow of compost.	positive
1	Great laptop bag	This is a great protective case for my laptop.. It has room for cords, accessories, ect.	positive
0	Disappointment	This book came highly recommended to me, both by friends and by the excellent reviews here and on Barnes & Noble's site. (And it has such a pretty cover!) Despite this, I was disappointed by it.Plotwise, I believe that Hollick accomplishes her goal in providing a gritty, Dark Ages version of Arthur. That bit she does well. However, there was too much smut in it for my taste (numerous sex scenes, description of a rape). I wish someone had mentioned that to me before I bought it, because I would have spent my $16 on something else (for example, Parke Godwin'sFirelord, which is written in a similar style (Arthur as a military leader rising to power in Roman Britain) but is a more ingenious and well-written narrative overall).	negative
0	has its moments	Too violent, too hokey, too predictable, too shallow.The violence is the part of that that's a surprise: The characters suffer crippling injuries, near deaths, and ruinous destructions of property time after time after time. On the plus side, the director knows how to make explosions big.	negative
0	A valley between the hills...	Generally, I consider "Turn Back" to be a downward blip in Toto's catalog between "Hydra" (one of my favorites) and "Toto IV" (probably the group's most commercially successful release). I don't know if the record was rushed, but that would seem to be a reasonable assumption considering what came before and after. To my ears, none of the songs really come up to the level one would expect from the other CDs which the group released during this period; there's an almost "bland" quality running through the whole record. As another reviewer said, this one is worthwhile mostly for completeness sake, and for the one or two songs which aren't total throwaways. Fortunately, better things were on the way from Toto...	negative
0	This film had a point to make, but we lose interest right..	from the beginning. Because the film is so boring, we don't really care to know what the point was.ASH WEDNESDAY is about a middle-aged woman, who is undergoing a middle-age crisis, elememts of which include her having an extensive plastic surgery and a young lover. It is a "we have to value what we've got" sort of thing.Except for the great Henry Fonda, who appears only in couple of scenes, all actors are complete ham. I did not feel any genuine emotion coming from the screen, I didn't laugh, and I was not entertained. On my list, these are the characteristics of a bad movie. I am sorry to hurt the feelings of all die-hard Elizabeth Taylor fans: she is a true star, but even her costumes could not save this film. It is dull and pretentious!	negative
1	Highly recommended	I play a lot of videogames, and I like to play them privately as to not bother my roomates. After using these headphones I can pick up a bunch of little sounds in the games that I couldn't before, like shell casings hitting the ground, or someones hands rubbing against a wall, all of these little sounds add a great deal of immersion to the games, and sometimes help me hear an enemy.For music and movies these headphones are also great, several little audio details that usually go unnoticed become loud and clear, I've had no tinny sounds, no overloads, these have a great sound quality, and after wearing them for hours they remain comfortable, I highly recommend these headphones to anyone who wants to either listen in privacy or would like to pick up unnoticed sounds	positive
1	Awesome family game	You will not be disappointed with this game. I recently, Christmas eve, taught two "virtual reality" boys, 13 and 16, to play this and we played for 2 1/2 hours and then when they left they were asking when they could play again and if they could get the game for themselves. A wonderful family game. I love this. Been playing for years and sometimes can pass 6 - 7 hours with fun and laughter.	positive
1	Sigma 10-20mm Lens	I thought it performed very well and gave great results. For some reason, getting it off and on the camera was not the easiest, but then again, I was in rainy conditions.	positive
0	Not Suitable for Hermit Crabs	Hermit crabs have modified gills, not lungs, so if the humidity in their enclosure is not kept high enough (~70-80%) they will slowly suffocate. Even if you use the spray bottle diligently, the air inside dries out quickly because of the large side grates. This also shouldn't be described as a "complete" kit when it doesn't even have water conditioner (the chlorine in tap water will burn their gills), salt for their second water dish, or temperature/humidity gauges.	negative
0	Just Not Worth It!	Amazon really needs to add a ZERO STARS option. Even one star is too much for this show.Back in the '70s, I used to love this program. But from the day it went off the air, I slowly began to realize that is was completely fabricated. Except for a pilot named Pappy Boyington and a Marine Squadron 214, everything about this show was not only made up, but a complete farce, featuring drunks with a complete lack of discipline who somehow manage to defeat the enemy. Knowing all of this, I bought this DVD anyway, but I just can't bring myself to watch it again and again. Time to move on. I donated it to a Church yard sale and it didn't even sell there!With all of the remakes being done, I hope someday somebody does an accurate, intelligent version of the story of the real Black Sheep squadron.	negative
0	Cheap, No Parts Available	Bought this for our son going to college. Within a year the plastic tabs on the lid broke off. They are required to operate the grinder. So, we go to order a new lid...guess what....they don't sell ANY parts for this grinder.I have a different brand that doesn't use the plastic tabs and it has been working for 15 years. AVOID THIS ONE!CC	negative
1	Great Product	Shipping was pretty quick and easy. My son absolutely loves this rug! It matches his room and is a great addition to his nursery! :) I am extremely happy with this product.	positive
1	Creatures Adventures	My 8 year old grandaughter loves this game now. She was quite distressed when her first little Norm died, though. I guess this is to teach you about the life cycle, but very sensitive children might have a lot of questions or become very upset like she did.	positive
1	This is the BEST CD!!!!	This CD is so great!! But some of the songs ARE kinda boring -&- mushy. (I know this is RARE!) If you like the BsB you will LOVE this CD.	positive
1	Exactly What it says it is	I have a laptop from work and wanted to connect it to my PS-2 style KVM switch. Laptop is XP, second PC is Vista.It has no problem recognizing (sp)the laptop and the air link KVM hot keys work fine as well. Well worth the small change it costs!	positive
0	Doesn't fit extended cab Ranger	I was disappointed to find this part didn't fit my truck. I ordered it based on the drop down menus on the amazon sales page, with the final statement telling me it would work. The part is nearly identical to the original fuel pump with one major difference: the assembly that is inserted into the tank is rotated so that the pump will not sit flush, preventing installation of the locking nut. I have photos that show the differences. I returned the pump and am waiting for my refund, but this was a giant hassle that could have easily been prevented on the seller's end.	negative
0	Too '80-ish	I bought this record becasue I liked one song (Under Your Spell) which I used to listen, in a cassette I recorded, in my collegue years. I still like that song and I wanted to have the whole CD in case I missed something. Well, I didn't. Although the music as composition is OK (never underestimate Dylan's brilliance), the production is horrible. And by production I mean the musical Zeitgesit of the '80s. Let's not forget that the '80s were the decade of the producer, not of the musician. The record is horribly and badly "overproduced". Electronic drums, exagerated reverbs, too many arrangements go against the very nature of Dylan's music. Knocked Out Loaded is a testimony of its own time in that sense. If you want a documentfrom the '80, this is it. Just don't expect a good music product.	negative
1	Fantastic!	One word, INCREDIBLE! Caught this show last fall live and the blue ray performance was like being back in the third row center once again! Very few bands get better with age however Styx is definately one of them. This was a difinitive performance! The music of Styx is timeless! Being able to experience these two great albums live in their entirety was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that we can now relive anytime we want!	positive
0	Good, when it works.	Like many others here, I was looking for a cheap and easy rower. This one seemed to win, so I took the plunge.The good:Assembly was very easy, it is relatively light, and can stand and fold up to minimize floor space when not in use. Computer keeps time and strokes accurately, but I don't really trust the calorie counter.The bad:Seat is pretty hard and uncomfortable. Footstraps are next to useless (take an old pair of sneakers, pull out the insole and drive 3-4 screws through the shoe into the footpad. Replace the insole, lace up, and you'll never slip out again!).The dealbreaker:After only a few months of use, one of the wheels has broken clean in half. It is currently useless as the seat will not move while I'm sitting on it. I'm still looking for a replacement.	negative
0	Mediocre at best...	Their first album was far more tollerable for one simple reason: it was new. Human Clay is what I call "recycled music". Why? Simple. Creed's new cd offers nothing new and basically stuffs old riffs back into songs with new lyrics. So that's why I loath this this album.	negative
1	Massive!	I like this a lot. It is so big. I doubt I will ever have to buy another one. I do wish the sleeves on the inside were a little higher quality though.	positive
1	From Faking It to Finding Grace	I will admit that I had this book sitting on my bookshelf for a very long time. It's one of the signs of "faking it"...having a library full of great life-changing books that seem to never get read until one day something happens that compells you to blow off the dust from the book jacket and reach for some hope found within the pages. That was exactly what happened to me. Not wanting to admit I was experiencing a spiritual dryness in my life for many years, it was reading Connie's book that made me realize I had found someone who knew exactly what I was going through. I was not alone and like her, I didn't want to fake it any more.Connie's book has humour, has depth, and has the kind of insight that asks the reader to journey away from that place of dryness to once again come humbly before the Father and experience His Grace.Lynn Dove Author of Shoot the WoundedShoot The Wounded	positive
0	Worst So-Called NLP Book	There are two problems with this book: (1) Unedited English and unfocused writing and (2) claiming to be NLP when it's not. Don't waste your money on this bad joke. There are better NLP books out there.	negative
0	Instant FM - Not	This product doesn't work like a charm. The reception is only as good as the antenna picks up the station. It's not as good as the description leads you to believe.	negative
0	RAUNCHY	This show has its funny moments (not as many as the American version) but it is flat-out raunchy. And by raunchy, I mean: vulgar, smutty, crude, earthy, obscene and hands-down dirty. Almost every single joke is based on sexual situations or a part of the human body.If you have any standards at all, leave this one alone and try the american version, much cleaner and much funnier.Too many "breakfast beans" in this piece of TV crud. It's like eating a sandwich with a big beatle inside of it. There's some good to it, but you have to eat trash to get to it.	negative
0	Dumb Movie!	This movie is dumb because Radio gets picked on and i did not like that. I also didn`t like when his mom died. Thats all i have to say.	negative
1	Pure Bliss!	For those of you with more of an ecclectic taste in metal and/or classical music, this is the ultimate in symphonic bliss. For those of us who have seen Therion go from a straight-forward deathmetal band, into an operatic/symphonic wonder, either love what they have done, or despise it. There are people who shudder with each new release, and cry about how great Therion used to be. I can understand where they are coming from, however, I think Therion have become more and more talented with each release. "Vovin" picks up where "Theli" left off with a warm and full operatic masterpiece. Thus, Therion prove once more, than metal can reach new extremes of classical ambiance. The production is superb, and the packaging is nice (somewhat what you should already expect from Nuclear Blast Records). But if you liked "Theli", and appreciate Therion's new sound, then "Vovin" is for you!	positive
1	Awesome	Phantom Planet's "The Guest" provides a mix of different tunes. It's independent music at it's best.Hopefully after the use of "California" in "The O.C." their music will become more main stream, allowing more people to experience their greatness.Some of the better songs:. California,Anthem,In Our Darkest Hour,Turn Smile Shift Repeat.	positive
1	A Literary Reminder!	The Wages of Sin, may be a light read of only 137 pages, but it is heavy with food for thought for its reader. There is a point of reference for everyone, as a result of the novel's versatility. It gives voice to neglected wives, overlooked children, the power struggle in marriages, fragility of friendship, and the hidden culture of sexual immorality in the church. The Biblical allusions from the title to the very end, give the reader a literary reminder of the universal principle of cause and effect. Overall it is a great book, and I look forward to what Audrey Forrest-Carter will come up with next!	positive
0	Cheap, not durable!	Long story short, my dog was able to break a big piece off within 15 minutes of receiving it. He is only one year old. Good thing this was cheap!	negative
0	Too small to be of any real use	I bought this product to use as a carrying case for maps and guidebooks while out of the country. However, it isn't large enough even to hold a small Lonely Planet guide book, and certainly no maps. Check the dimensions closely before you buy.	negative
0	Terrible movie.	This movie wasn't even B-grade. It was horrible. Horrible acting and horrible plot lines. It was called a mummy, but it resembled no mummy I had ever seen. It might be a mummy from some other world.	negative
1	There is a difference!	After reading a few reviews for these wine glasses, I was skeptical about whether you really can taste a difference when compared to other wine glasses. I purchased a set anyway because I like how they look. When they arrived, I immediately did a taste test with a Sauvignon Blanc. I poured the wine into an ordinary white wine glass and another into the new Bormioli glass. There was a subtle but noticeable difference. I'm not a wine expert, but even my unsophisticated palate was able to detect the increase in flavor and depth, with the more subtle nuances being exposed in the Bormioli glass but not the normal glass. The next evening I tried the same test with a Cab/Merlot, and it was improved as well by the Bormioli Esperienze. I'll be ordering more of these!	positive
1	Completely love it.	One of the best things I've bought. It IS delicate and I learned that the hard way unfortunately. A friend of mine smacked my hand for whatever reason and it bent so I'll be ordering another one soon.. (along with two additional ones for my two best friends). It came in a nice little box with a bow on it. I've had it for over a year and wear it almost every day. (I'm not one for jewelry but I loved this ring). Great buy and I WILL be ordering from this company again. You see in the picture exactly what you get in the mail and for the price, you can't go wrong.	positive
1	Running with siscors	I really loved "Weird Al's" new cd. It was so funny! :) I laughed the whole way through. I listen to it all the time. This is defeinetly his best cd so far! :)(:	positive
0	lame cringe humor	Not funny and kind of racially insensitive. He is pretty loud and screams a lot and ends every sentence with white people.A right wing hack and commits the ultimate crime....he's just not funny.	negative
1	Compact with quality results	Nice product but not available as new models have replaced it. New isn't always better!	positive
0	garbage	This cable is garbage. It is built for show ONLY and has NO ability to do anything. It is a total scam.	negative
1	Love this show	I have been a fan of numerous crime solving, law serving, interesting drama series over the years. I love the Rizzoli and Isles series because it is both serious with just the needed anti-tension insertion of humor. I look forward to the new episodes each week. Given my past interests in Law and Order (all of them), CSI (all of them),Bones, House, Suits, White Collar, Missing, Rookie Blue, Pushing Daises, Dead like me, Vampire Diaries, Switched at Birth, Teen Wolf, True Blood, Jane by Design, etc. you should be able to determine if you have similar interests.	positive
1	Fun to watch	This makes such delicious ice cream. I followed the recipes I got with it. I also did a Nutella ice cream I found online. It came out great. It's not too noisy, and fun to watch. I got it for my kids but I'm having fun with it too. It takes maybe 20 to 30 minutes for the ice cream to be done. I've only had it for a month now so I can't be sure how durable it is. Still, it seems like a real winner.	positive
0	easy to break	I read reviews and realized it's a flimsy item and not really meant to secure expensive items. I used it to secure a side gate so my 2-year-old couldn't get out. I assumed the gardener and the meter reader guy could simply press the side button to release the cable to enter (code wasn't set). Well, the lock just is too easy to break. Lasted 2 months but I don't completely blame the meter guy. It's just a cheap item. Buyer beware...	negative
0	Not good at all	If Nora Roberts wrote this book herself, I would be very much surprised. It doesn't read like Nora Roberts at all; she has a distinct style, and this is clumsy. Maybe she wrote an outline and handed it off; it's just awful.The familiar characters are flat; the heroine is impossible; the hero, well, a cardboard cut-out would have more life. The kid is great; probably the only character she actually fleshed out.I liked the Stanislaski series, but this is not even worthy of succession. It went straight to the dustbin here.	negative
1	Great Deal and worked like a charm!	Did 30lbs of cherries in one sitting. Just had to rinse it after 5lbs or so. It worked great and it is a great value!	positive
0	Way too noisey.	First impression was that there was something wrong. It is way louder than other shavers I've used and even drowns out my Remington hair dryer. Cuts and trims well.	negative
0	Dont Do It !!!	Helmet fit like a Yalmika. i got a "large" and it didnt even fit my 10 year old sister. and im not sayind it didnt Look large on her head. she looked like a martian. i didnt listen to someone elses review. Please listen to mine.	negative
1	Just what I've always wanted	I wanted a mouse for my kids' computer. We had a Kidzmouse, but it broke after a couple years. An "indestructible" mouse seemed like a perfect replacement. The scroll buttons are not as nice to use as a mouse wheel, but then again, my preschoolers aren't surfing with the same intense, frenzied need for information gathering as dad. It works well for them and well enough for me.	positive
1	Tiger, Tiger - Really Good	It has been so long since I read this but I do remember that I really enjoyed it. The characters were great and who wouldn't enjoy thinking about what it would be like to own a tiger as a pet. This book also takes you to a time when Christianity was still coming about and the Coliseum was still used as entertainment. A fun book and anyone who loves animals, tigers, or ancient history I think would enjoy this book.	positive
0	A Book to Avoid	With so much interest in the market about peak oil supported by well documented books like Matt Simmons' Twilight in the Desert and Ken Deffeyes' Beyond Oil, I was looking for a book which could refute some of the claims of the peak oil enthusiasts.I bought this book and was very much disappointed, as the book was of no help in finding any credible arguments against leading peak oil avocates. Unlike the title and cover photo, the book was very light on oil industry situation and forcasts and just had a lot of useless material.I found this book to be a waste of time and I hope I could return this book to Amazon.	negative
1	some tropicalia in your pants.....	i must say that if you don't hear the very intense influence of the most brilliant 60's tropicalia band Os Mutantes here, you must be deaf. I give them props for letting themselves be influenced by such an incredible, revolutionary band of Brazilian tropicalia geniuses.....but in the end, wouldn't you just want to listen to the Mutantes???Buy it anyway, this isn't run of the mill by any means. These guys, much like Mr. Kurt Heasley of the Lilys, know the art of intelligent, complicated songcraft in the sway of the fantastic sounds of the 60's with a slight modern twist. And for a time where music was NEW, where guitar had never been heard like that before, what better than to pay homage to such an important time in pop history??? The Wondermints do it right, and you better do it right than do it at all. otherwise you just look ridiculous. purchase, my friends.	positive
1	Great machine	I have not had any problems with this machine. I have made latte dozens of times. Better than spending $3.00 a day at "crappy donuts". Make sure you get "espresso ground" coffee. It won't be muddy.Follow the directions, you should be okay. Enjoy, GULP! :)John	positive
1	Non- stop Action	I thoroughly enjoyed the relationship development between David, the assassin, and Catherine, the doctor. Also, the interaction between the different characters (British and Israeli) as they came to believe David's story was certainly a different twist. The fast pace kept the pages turning. I hope David does not retire! Mike	positive
0	Listen to Dinu Lipatti's Chopin, it should help a lot!	Before one learns the 'meaning' of Chopin one better should learn to read the text correctly. Looks like Mr. Tropp did not master that technique yet. The magical "Barcarolle" sounds like a shipwreck in the ocean. Rough 'forte' playing with overwhelming pedaling and complete lack of style is a signature of this pianist. We have an advice for Mr. Tropp: listening to Dinu Lipatti might help.	negative
0	It may be a great practice, but....	I'm sure Jennifer Lynn is an accomplished practitioner and teacher, but for me her enthusiasm is so excessive that I can't even listen to her instruction. I tried to do this dvd several times and just couldn't stand her. So if there is anyone else out there who feels this way, you aren't alone. I bought this dvd because of all the glowing reviews and I finally threw it out because it actually put me in a terrible mood by section three. It is the first dvd I have tossed into the trash.	negative
0	Children's fiction?	I wish someone had told me this was a children's book before I bought it. Then I might not have found the overly simplistic writing style quite so annoying. It was really difficult to form any attachment or even interest in the characters as they were all so superficially drawn and breaking off each incident and anecdote after a couple of paragraphs made it very hard to gain any sense of continuity. I read the book to the end as I was truly interested in Ramses' fate, but I doubt I'll buy any more in this series. Which is a shame as I find history and especially ancient Egypt fascinating. Nice try, shame about the outcome.	negative
0	Horrible transfer of sound.	The worst audio recording I ever bought on dvd-audio.His estate obviously doesn't care about his fans in my opinion.The recording sounds like listening to music under water. It's Horrible.	negative
1	THIS BOOK WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE!!!	IF YOU HAVE NEVER OWNED THIS BOOK THEN YOU DON'T KNOW LIFE. Besides the Bible, this is the only other book you will ever need to master your life. There is a prayer in this book, if you study it daily you can just think of what you would like and My God, you will have it After repeating this prayer daily, it become life within you. You will see the true light to all of Jesus instructions. You will understand how to apply the word of God to your life. For the longest time I listen to people say stay away from this book. This book is about God and His Son Jesus Christ. I truly love this book and now read it every day with God as my leader.	positive
1	Great for teething babies and to feed fruit	These work very well with my babies - particularly to feed them apple slices. I unfortunately ruined one by trying to steam sterilize it (the package warning was long gone by the time I tried it).	positive
1	It works Good	It's a fantastic machine, cooks good pizza, the only thing I do not like is that you have to unplug it or lift the turntable for it to stop rotating. And you have to very careful when removing the pizza and turntable so as not to raise it to high and hit the top element.	positive
1	return policy	The return policy for shipping this product is totally unaccetable. Why would I want to purchase 2 of these. I should have been alerted to this purchase before accepting. I know damn well it didn't cost you $13 to ship this product.	positive
1	WHAT AN ADVENTURE	I have seen this movie in the queue for quite awhile and thought that it was probably not worth the effort, until one day I finally decided what the heck. WOW! I really should have given this one a go a long time ago.The acting - superb! The writing - well done! Humour in all the right places - some really cool science with just enough fiction to make it believable... a little bit of romance and some great action... What a great story!I was thoroughly entertained and would not mind watching it again.. Well done!!	positive
0	far cry movie garbage	DO NOT BUY THIS GARBAGE. I am a big fan of the Far Cry games but this movie is crap. Plus the only way they are gonna make any money off this movie is by sueing people. Let them make their money that way since they can't make good movies. For the sake of all the people being sued by these idiots DO NOT buy this movie.	negative
0	Too bad I can't go lower..	I suppose that I have to give the author credit for well developed characters, even if they are self-centered, self-obsessed, petty individuals that inspire nothing but contempt. On a long weekend I was stuck with this book as my only read, at 3/4's through I found a good use for the book. I used it as target practice. If these type of people populate the author's life, I feel sorry for him.	negative
1	Good quality, yet things to improve	This digital photo frame has reasonably good picture quality and once set up, can be used by anyone in the selected mode. I have it set for slide presentation mode and people enjoy looking at it. I could easily see giving it, already set up, to people who are not computer savvy, such as grandparents. To give them new pictures, send a new card and they slip that in. That said, the cost is still fairly high and the buttons on the top of the frame useless unless you have them memorized or really good vision. I would recommend this product.	positive
0	BOMB! Arguably the worst film ever made.	I went into this expecting (at least) a halfway decent direct-to-video, or made-for-cable film; what I watched was a ghastly mishmash... poorly directed; poorly acted; poorly edited; just: poor! To anyone interested in Dean, this video is an insult (and to add insult to injury, the "filmmakers" dedicated the film to Dean in the end credits!!) And to think that this was Robert Mitchum's last film (and he does look very ill in the small part he played [as George Cukor] toward the end); that just adds to the travesty. Anyone looking to shell out the asking price to own this film: caveat emptor! Beware, at all costs!	negative
1	Fantastic bargain!	I've had these speakers in my office for about a week and love them. And at the $25 price, it is a very, very good bargain. I am not the audiophile that some on this site clearly are but, in my opinion, the sound is excellent. The bass level that some complain about is fine although I do admit to having it set at its lowest setting.	positive
0	ugh!	I also was excited to read this book, I'd heard good things about it. I was really suprised that I could dislike it this much! The writer is just sooo totally self-centered and annoying. I've never rolled my eyes so much while reading a book and just found it so shallow and the writer so concieted. I found it disturbing that she didn't seem too affected by the poverty she must've witnessed in India, perhaps she was, it just didn not come across to me in the book that she was. If you want some great reads I'd suggest - The Glass Castle, The Book Thief and Three Cups of Tea.	negative
1	Savage Garden Super Stars And Cannonballs	The music is great to hear live you can tell they can sing really good. Fun to watch because you can see interviews with the Savage Garden members about their experiences through out the years, and you can see 5 music videos.	positive
1	Good product at a good price	I bought two of these to upgrade my mother's 233MHz computer from 32 Meg of RAM to 96. It installed beautifully without a problem and has worked great in her computer! I am very glad I was able to get this at such a good price. By the way, in case it is helpful to know, my mother just has a generic computer that was bought at a computer show a few years back.	positive
0	Too many Characters and not enough plot!	This book was not fast paced enough for me, it just lagged 'on and on and on'. I did not like Julia at all, she was just nosy, snoopy and asked 'question, after question after question', until I felt like telling her put a sock in it, already. There was nothing about her that was endearing.Chance was just,'there'... rather colorless! And how he fell in love with Julia's personality, I will never know!He would have been better off buying a Parrot, at least he could have put a cover over it's cage to shut it up!And the story... as with 'ALL' the too many Characters... fell flat. Library maybe, buy it no.	negative
1	THE FORSAKEN	THE FORSAKEN is a horror/action thriller about a guy named Sean who is driving cross-country to attend his sister's wedding, and along the way he picks up a man named Nick who just happens to be a vampire hunter. Now, Sean is caught up in a battle with a gang of bloodthirsty vampires (The Forsaken), and things take a turn for the worst when Sean becomes infected with the vampire virus, and now he has to battle the undead in order to stay human. This movie had me on the edge of my seat, it has alot of plot twists, and good character development for the human and the vampire characters. This is definitly one of the best vampire movies to come out in the new millenium.	positive
0	Useless Junk That Does Not Work & Smells Terrible - Seriously PU!	Seriously, don't waste your time on this. Even at $3.45, you would not get your shipping refunded right? Not to mention you will have to pay for shipping to send it back.Aside from the terrible odor that does not go away, it does not work. I laughed when I read another review that talked about the smell...... even if it had kept the combination I set, which it did not, the spread apart locking mechanism does not hold. Lucky for me that I was able to pull it out of the hole sine the combination I set did not work. It requires a tool to set the combo and it is not intuitive or easy at all, though it seems like an easy enough process. Anyway I set the combo, it seemed to take, then I stuck it in the computer and set it. After that the combination would not open the lock.......Warning Will Robinson..... Warning, Warning, BAD, BAD, BAD NEWS!!!	negative
0	Same as 2k6	While I still contend that the 2k series is better than the Live series at being a more accurate, fun and realistic approach to basketball, I was really disappointed with this years go around. Not because it's a bad game by any means, but because it's nearly exactly like 2k6 in terms of the play. Whereas the xbox 360 version features new player movements, animations, etc. this one is just last years version with new rosters. If you own a 360, definitely spend the $60 to get that version, but if you're like me and stuck with the old xbox and already own 2k6 then this isn't worth your time. However, if you don't own any basketball games and are wondering between this and Live, 2k7 is where your money should go. I guess last year's version pushed everything it could out of the xbox, so there's not much more they could've done. Maybe that's why this game was $30.	negative
0	This is awful - horrible images!!!!	My son loves Richard Scarry, and we have two dvds he loves: Counting and ABC. This book, however is terrible. The images are chaotic and confusing. And the story is confusing, as well. Not recommended, even for Scarry fans.	negative
0	Expensive propaganda	Even though I think the Author is right about some of the facts mentioned in his "book" (only 52 pages long!), the book gives no tips, no solutions, no fresh ideas that might help anyone at all.Grain Damage is just mere propaganda were the author complains meaninglessly for 52 pages.On top of that, each page is divided into three sections and only the middle one is filled with text: the other two are filled with uninteresting phrases about grains or fruits.Definitely not worth what the price AT ALL.	negative
1	Great continuation of the series!	This book is definitely one of my favorites of the series.

0	DRM like this is killing PC gaming	First of all, this game promised soooo much. Now I know all games do, its called marketing. And yes, you can create really cute little creatures, and spaceships and such. But a whole new gaming experience? No, sorry its just a cute little game.Now, for the real problem. The one everybody is up in arms about (and it is a big one). You can only install this game 3 times. If your like me, and reinstall your OS, or major hardware upgrades, well you have a problem. You are going to have to reinstall, and there goes one of your allotments. Also you MUST connect to internet. Not good.Im sure the developers didnt ask for this, but its what it is. And they want 49 bucks, the final insult.	negative

The film is one of the best vampire movies ever made. Tom Cruise is dead on in his portrayal of Lestat, and Kirsten Dunst's portrayal of Claudia is delicious. She steals almost every scene she is in.Skip the Blu-Ray and get the DVD if you don't already own it.Interview with the Vampire	negative
0	Good cup, but the lid needs some work...	The lid of this cup is in the sliding tab style, which I never like, because old coffee and coffee mixed with creamers collects under there creating what my aunt has dubbed 'coffee cheese.' Also, the turn tab in the middle tends to bump your nose a little if you do anything more than sip.After less than a week of use, the handle on the mug caused it to slip out of a cup pocket on a bag, fall to the ground and crack! Cracked so bad that even coffee would leak into the space with the pictures inside. I'm very disappointed, as their tumbler's without the handle tend to hold up to years of wear and tear before needing to be retired.	negative

1	For students of the American criminal justice system	Journalist Joel Dyer creates an informative, critical, and iconoclastic survey of the United States' criminal justice system in The Perpetual Prisoner Machine: How America Profits From Crime. Dyer persuasively argues that contemporary criminal "justice" is disastrously impacted by violent media content, a push for privatization; an increasing dependence of politicians upon public opinion polling and campaign finance. This has all resulted in an explosion in the American prison population. The rapidly increasing numbers of prisoners, parolees and probationers is not the result of increasing crime rates, but because sectors of the American economy and political power structure find mass incarcerations to be profitable. The Perpetual Prisoner Machine is very strongly recommended reading for students of the American criminal justice system, prisoner reform movement supporters, sociologists, cultural anthropologists, and political science students.	positive
1	I only enjoy reading this way now!	I have had my Kindle for 2 weeks now. I was going to wait for a new version but when the Oprah special hit I went for it.

1	Cute.	This is a cute presentation of a few of the first baby signs that are both easy and useful for any family. I wish there were more Sign Language DVD's in the Einstein series because this sort of leaves you hanging. The search for DVD's between this age and schoolage where ettiquette, sentence structure, classifiers, etc. start to be discussed is void. It would be nice if signing could be taken for granted and included in children's programing as a matter of course. Our granddaughter does now look for hands to mean something and Signing seems to be a stronger language for her than verbal instruction. She usually smiles when she signs to us because for her it seems to be both a game and powerful. "Adults" get it when she signs. This DVD did make a huge difference getting her started. We have a deaf daughter (25) so it is important in our family to have these materials around for everybody. This DVD was a positive fun start that made an immense change immediately for her at only 10-12 months.	positive

A Let Down

Disappointment

This book came highly recommended to me, both by friends and by the excellent reviews here and on Barnes & Noble's site. (And it has such a pretty cover!) Despite this, I was disappointed by it.Plotwise, I believe that Hollick accomplishes her goal in providing a gritty, Dark Ages version of Arthur. That bit she does well. However, there was too much smut in it for my taste (numerous sex scenes, description of a rape). I wish someone had mentioned that to me before I bought it, because I would have spent my $16 on something else (for example, Parke Godwin'sFirelord, which is written in a similar style (Arthur as a military leader rising to power in Roman Britain) but is a more ingenious and well-written narrative overall).

has its moments

Too violent, too hokey, too predictable, too shallow.The violence is the part of that that's a surprise: The characters suffer crippling injuries, near deaths, and ruinous destructions of property time after time after time. On the plus side, the director knows how to make explosions big.

A valley between the hills...

Generally, I consider "Turn Back" to be a downward blip in Toto's catalog between "Hydra" (one of my favorites) and "Toto IV" (probably the group's most commercially successful release). I don't know if the record was rushed, but that would seem to be a reasonable assumption considering what came before and after. To my ears, none of the songs really come up to the level one would expect from the other CDs which the group released during this period; there's an almost "bland" quality running through the whole record. As another reviewer said, this one is worthwhile mostly for completeness sake, and for the one or two songs which aren't total throwaways. Fortunately, better things were on the way from Toto...

This film had a point to make, but we lose interest right..

from the beginning. Because the film is so boring, we don't really care to know what the point was.ASH WEDNESDAY is about a middle-aged woman, who is undergoing a middle-age crisis, elememts of which include her having an extensive plastic surgery and a young lover. It is a "we have to value what we've got" sort of thing.Except for the great Henry Fonda, who appears only in couple of scenes, all actors are complete ham. I did not feel any genuine emotion coming from the screen, I didn't laugh, and I was not entertained. On my list, these are the characteristics of a bad movie. I am sorry to hurt the feelings of all die-hard Elizabeth Taylor fans: she is a true star, but even her costumes could not save this film. It is dull and pretentious!

Highly recommended

I play a lot of videogames, and I like to play them privately as to not bother my roomates. After using these headphones I can pick up a bunch of little sounds in the games that I couldn't before, like shell casings hitting the ground, or someones hands rubbing against a wall, all of these little sounds add a great deal of immersion to the games, and sometimes help me hear an enemy.For music and movies these headphones are also great, several little audio details that usually go unnoticed become loud and clear, I've had no tinny sounds, no overloads, these have a great sound quality, and after wearing them for hours they remain comfortable, I highly recommend these headphones to anyone who wants to either listen in privacy or would like to pick up unnoticed sounds

Awesome family game

You will not be disappointed with this game. I recently, Christmas eve, taught two "virtual reality" boys, 13 and 16, to play this and we played for 2 1/2 hours and then when they left they were asking when they could play again and if they could get the game for themselves. A wonderful family game. I love this. Been playing for years and sometimes can pass 6 - 7 hours with fun and laughter.

Not Suitable for Hermit Crabs

Hermit crabs have modified gills, not lungs, so if the humidity in their enclosure is not kept high enough (~70-80%) they will slowly suffocate. Even if you use the spray bottle diligently, the air inside dries out quickly because of the large side grates. This also shouldn't be described as a "complete" kit when it doesn't even have water conditioner (the chlorine in tap water will burn their gills), salt for their second water dish, or temperature/humidity gauges.

Just Not Worth It!

Amazon really needs to add a ZERO STARS option. Even one star is too much for this show.Back in the '70s, I used to love this program. But from the day it went off the air, I slowly began to realize that is was completely fabricated. Except for a pilot named Pappy Boyington and a Marine Squadron 214, everything about this show was not only made up, but a complete farce, featuring drunks with a complete lack of discipline who somehow manage to defeat the enemy. Knowing all of this, I bought this DVD anyway, but I just can't bring myself to watch it again and again. Time to move on. I donated it to a Church yard sale and it didn't even sell there!With all of the remakes being done, I hope someday somebody does an accurate, intelligent version of the story of the real Black Sheep squadron.

Doesn't fit extended cab Ranger

I was disappointed to find this part didn't fit my truck. I ordered it based on the drop down menus on the amazon sales page, with the final statement telling me it would work. The part is nearly identical to the original fuel pump with one major difference: the assembly that is inserted into the tank is rotated so that the pump will not sit flush, preventing installation of the locking nut. I have photos that show the differences. I returned the pump and am waiting for my refund, but this was a giant hassle that could have easily been prevented on the seller's end.

Too '80-ish

I bought this record becasue I liked one song (Under Your Spell) which I used to listen, in a cassette I recorded, in my collegue years. I still like that song and I wanted to have the whole CD in case I missed something. Well, I didn't. Although the music as composition is OK (never underestimate Dylan's brilliance), the production is horrible. And by production I mean the musical Zeitgesit of the '80s. Let's not forget that the '80s were the decade of the producer, not of the musician. The record is horribly and badly "overproduced". Electronic drums, exagerated reverbs, too many arrangements go against the very nature of Dylan's music. Knocked Out Loaded is a testimony of its own time in that sense. If you want a documentfrom the '80, this is it. Just don't expect a good music product.

One word, INCREDIBLE! Caught this show last fall live and the blue ray performance was like being back in the third row center once again!

Being able to experience these two great albums live in their entirety was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that we can now relive anytime we want!

Good, when it works.

Like many others here, I was looking for a cheap and easy rower. This one seemed to win, so I took the plunge.The good:Assembly was very easy, it is relatively light, and can stand and fold up to minimize floor space when not in use. Computer keeps time and strokes accurately, but I don't really trust the calorie counter.The bad:Seat is pretty hard and uncomfortable. Footstraps are next to useless (take an old pair of sneakers, pull out the insole and drive 3-4 screws through the shoe into the footpad. Replace the insole, lace up, and you'll never slip out again!).The dealbreaker:After only a few months of use, one of the wheels has broken clean in half. It is currently useless as the seat will not move while I'm sitting on it. I'm still looking for a replacement.

Mediocre at best...

Their first album was far more tollerable for one simple reason: it was new. Human Clay is what I call "recycled music". Why? Simple. Creed's new cd offers nothing new and basically stuffs old riffs back into songs with new lyrics. So that's why I loath this this album.

From Faking It to Finding Grace

I will admit that I had this book sitting on my bookshelf for a very long time. It's one of the signs of "faking it"...having a library full of great life-changing books that seem to never get read until one day something happens that compells you to blow off the dust from the book jacket and reach for some hope found within the pages. That was exactly what happened to me. Not wanting to admit I was experiencing a spiritual dryness in my life for many years, it was reading Connie's book that made me realize I had found someone who knew exactly what I was going through. I was not alone and like her, I didn't want to fake it any more.Connie's book has humour, has depth, and has the kind of insight that asks the reader to journey away from that place of dryness to once again come humbly before the Father and experience His Grace.Lynn Dove Author of Shoot the WoundedShoot The Wounded

This show has its funny moments (not as many as the American version) but it is flat-out raunchy. And by raunchy, I mean: vulgar, smutty, crude, earthy, obscene and hands-down dirty. Almost every single joke is based on sexual situations or a part of the human body.If you have any standards at all, leave this one alone and try the american version, much cleaner and much funnier.Too many "breakfast beans" in this piece of TV crud.

Pure Bliss!

For those of you with more of an ecclectic taste in metal and/or classical music, this is the ultimate in symphonic bliss. For those of us who have seen Therion go from a straight-forward deathmetal band, into an operatic/symphonic wonder, either love what they have done, or despise it. There are people who shudder with each new release, and cry about how great Therion used to be. I can understand where they are coming from, however, I think Therion have become more and more talented with each release. "Vovin" picks up where "Theli" left off with a warm and full operatic masterpiece. Thus, Therion prove once more, than metal can reach new extremes of classical ambiance. The production is superb, and the packaging is nice (somewhat what you should already expect from Nuclear Blast Records). But if you liked "Theli", and appreciate Therion's new sound, then "Vovin" is for you!

A Literary Reminder!

The Wages of Sin, may be a light read of only 137 pages, but it is heavy with food for thought for its reader. There is a point of reference for everyone, as a result of the novel's versatility. It gives voice to neglected wives, overlooked children, the power struggle in marriages, fragility of friendship, and the hidden culture of sexual immorality in the church. The Biblical allusions from the title to the very end, give the reader a literary reminder of the universal principle of cause and effect. Overall it is a great book, and I look forward to what Audrey Forrest-Carter will come up with next!

There is a difference!

After reading a few reviews for these wine glasses, I was skeptical about whether you really can taste a difference when compared to other wine glasses. I purchased a set anyway because I like how they look. When they arrived, I immediately did a taste test with a Sauvignon Blanc. I poured the wine into an ordinary white wine glass and another into the new Bormioli glass. There was a subtle but noticeable difference. I'm not a wine expert, but even my unsophisticated palate was able to detect the increase in flavor and depth, with the more subtle nuances being exposed in the Bormioli glass but not the normal glass. The next evening I tried the same test with a Cab/Merlot, and it was improved as well by the Bormioli Esperienze. I'll be ordering more of these!

Given my past interests in Law and Order (all of them), CSI (all of them),Bones, House, Suits, White Collar, Missing, Rookie Blue, Pushing Daises, Dead like me, Vampire Diaries, Switched at Birth, Teen Wolf, True Blood, Jane by Design, etc. you should be able to determine if you have similar interests.

This makes such delicious ice cream. I followed the recipes I got with it. I also did a Nutella ice cream I found online. It came out great. It's not too noisy, and fun to watch. I got it for my kids but I'm having fun with it too. It takes maybe 20 to 30 minutes for the ice cream to be done. I've only had it for a month now so I can't be sure how durable it is. Still, it seems like a real winner.

Lasted 2 months but I don't completely blame the meter guy. It's just a cheap item. Buyer beware...

Not good at all

If Nora Roberts wrote this book herself, I would be very much surprised. It doesn't read like Nora Roberts at all; she has a distinct style, and this is clumsy. Maybe she wrote an outline and handed it off; it's just awful.The familiar characters are flat; the heroine is impossible; the hero, well, a cardboard cut-out would have more life. The kid is great; probably the only character she actually fleshed out.I liked the Stanislaski series, but this is not even worthy of succession. It went straight to the dustbin here.

Tiger, Tiger - Really Good

It has been so long since I read this but I do remember that I really enjoyed it. The characters were great and who wouldn't enjoy thinking about what it would be like to own a tiger as a pet. This book also takes you to a time when Christianity was still coming about and the Coliseum was still used as entertainment. A fun book and anyone who loves animals, tigers, or ancient history I think would enjoy this book.

A Book to Avoid

With so much interest in the market about peak oil supported by well documented books like Matt Simmons' Twilight in the Desert and Ken Deffeyes' Beyond Oil, I was looking for a book which could refute some of the claims of the peak oil enthusiasts.I bought this book and was very much disappointed, as the book was of no help in finding any credible arguments against leading peak oil avocates. Unlike the title and cover photo, the book was very light on oil industry situation and forcasts and just had a lot of useless material.I found this book to be a waste of time and I hope I could return this book to Amazon.

some tropicalia in your pants.....

i must say that if you don't hear the very intense influence of the most brilliant 60's tropicalia band Os Mutantes here, you must be deaf. I give them props for letting themselves be influenced by such an incredible, revolutionary band of Brazilian tropicalia geniuses.....but in the end, wouldn't you just want to listen to the Mutantes???Buy it anyway, this isn't run of the mill by any means. These guys, much like Mr. Kurt Heasley of the Lilys, know the art of intelligent, complicated songcraft in the sway of the fantastic sounds of the 60's with a slight modern twist. And for a time where music was NEW, where guitar had never been heard like that before, what better than to pay homage to such an important time in pop history??? The Wondermints do it right, and you better do it right than do it at all. otherwise you just look ridiculous. purchase, my friends.

Great machine

I have not had any problems with this machine. I have made latte dozens of times. Better than spending $3.00 a day at "crappy donuts". Make sure you get "espresso ground" coffee. It won't be muddy.Follow the directions, you should be okay. Enjoy, GULP! :)John

Non- stop Action

I thoroughly enjoyed the relationship development between David, the assassin, and Catherine, the doctor. Also, the interaction between the different characters (British and Israeli) as they came to believe David's story was certainly a different twist. The fast pace kept the pages turning. I hope David does not retire! Mike

Listen to Dinu Lipatti's Chopin, it should help a lot!

Before one learns the 'meaning' of Chopin one better should learn to read the text correctly. Looks like Mr. Tropp did not master that technique yet. The magical "Barcarolle" sounds like a shipwreck in the ocean. Rough 'forte' playing with overwhelming pedaling and complete lack of style is a signature of this pianist. We have an advice for Mr. Tropp: listening to Dinu Lipatti might help.

It may be a great practice, but....

I'm sure Jennifer Lynn is an accomplished practitioner and teacher, but for me her enthusiasm is so excessive that I can't even listen to her instruction. I tried to do this dvd several times and just couldn't stand her. So if there is anyone else out there who feels this way, you aren't alone. I bought this dvd because of all the glowing reviews and I finally threw it out because it actually put me in a terrible mood by section three. It is the first dvd I have tossed into the trash.

Children's fiction?

I wish someone had told me this was a children's book before I bought it. Then I might not have found the overly simplistic writing style quite so annoying. It was really difficult to form any attachment or even interest in the characters as they were all so superficially drawn and breaking off each incident and anecdote after a couple of paragraphs made it very hard to gain any sense of continuity. I read the book to the end as I was truly interested in Ramses' fate, but I doubt I'll buy any more in this series. Which is a shame as I find history and especially ancient Egypt fascinating. Nice try, shame about the outcome.

THIS BOOK WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE!!!

IF YOU HAVE NEVER OWNED THIS BOOK THEN YOU DON'T KNOW LIFE. Besides the Bible, this is the only other book you will ever need to master your life. There is a prayer in this book, if you study it daily you can just think of what you would like and My God, you will have it After repeating this prayer daily, it become life within you. You will see the true light to all of Jesus instructions. You will understand how to apply the word of God to your life. For the longest time I listen to people say stay away from this book. This book is about God and His Son Jesus Christ. I truly love this book and now read it every day with God as my leader.

It's a fantastic machine, cooks good pizza, the only thing I do not like is that you have to unplug it or lift the turntable for it to stop rotating. And you have to very careful when removing the pizza and turntable so as not to raise it to high and hit the top element.

WHAT AN ADVENTURE

I have seen this movie in the queue for quite awhile and thought that it was probably not worth the effort, until one day I finally decided what the heck. WOW! I really should have given this one a go a long time ago.The acting - superb! The writing - well done! Humour in all the right places - some really cool science with just enough fiction to make it believable... a little bit of romance and some great action... What a great story!I was thoroughly entertained and would not mind watching it again.. Well done!!

DO NOT BUY THIS GARBAGE. I am a big fan of the Far Cry games but this movie is crap. Plus the only way they are gonna make any money off this movie is by sueing people.

Too bad I can't go lower..

I suppose that I have to give the author credit for well developed characters, even if they are self-centered, self-obsessed, petty individuals that inspire nothing but contempt. On a long weekend I was stuck with this book as my only read, at 3/4's through I found a good use for the book. I used it as target practice. If these type of people populate the author's life, I feel sorry for him.

Good quality, yet things to improve

This digital photo frame has reasonably good picture quality and once set up, can be used by anyone in the selected mode. I have it set for slide presentation mode and people enjoy looking at it. I could easily see giving it, already set up, to people who are not computer savvy, such as grandparents. To give them new pictures, send a new card and they slip that in. That said, the cost is still fairly high and the buttons on the top of the frame useless unless you have them memorized or really good vision. I would recommend this product.

BOMB! Arguably the worst film ever made.

I went into this expecting (at least) a halfway decent direct-to-video, or made-for-cable film; what I watched was a ghastly mishmash... poorly directed; poorly acted; poorly edited; just: poor! To anyone interested in Dean, this video is an insult (and to add insult to injury, the "filmmakers" dedicated the film to Dean in the end credits!!) And to think that this was Robert Mitchum's last film (and he does look very ill in the small part he played [as George Cukor] toward the end); that just adds to the travesty. Anyone looking to shell out the asking price to own this film: caveat emptor! Beware, at all costs!

Fantastic bargain!

I've had these speakers in my office for about a week and love them. And at the $25 price, it is a very, very good bargain. I am not the audiophile that some on this site clearly are but, in my opinion, the sound is excellent. The bass level that some complain about is fine although I do admit to having it set at its lowest setting.

ugh!

I also was excited to read this book, I'd heard good things about it. I was really suprised that I could dislike it this much! The writer is just sooo totally self-centered and annoying. I've never rolled my eyes so much while reading a book and just found it so shallow and the writer so concieted. I found it disturbing that she didn't seem too affected by the poverty she must've witnessed in India, perhaps she was, it just didn not come across to me in the book that she was. If you want some great reads I'd suggest - The Glass Castle, The Book Thief and Three Cups of Tea.

Too many Characters and not enough plot!

This book was not fast paced enough for me, it just lagged 'on and on and on'. I did not like Julia at all, she was just nosy, snoopy and asked 'question, after question after question', until I felt like telling her put a sock in it, already. There was nothing about her that was endearing.Chance was just,'there'... rather colorless! And how he fell in love with Julia's personality, I will never know!He would have been better off buying a Parrot, at least he could have put a cover over it's cage to shut it up!And the story... as with 'ALL' the too many Characters... fell flat. Library maybe, buy it no.

THE FORSAKEN

THE FORSAKEN is a horror/action thriller about a guy named Sean who is driving cross-country to attend his sister's wedding, and along the way he picks up a man named Nick who just happens to be a vampire hunter. Now, Sean is caught up in a battle with a gang of bloodthirsty vampires (The Forsaken), and things take a turn for the worst when Sean becomes infected with the vampire virus, and now he has to battle the undead in order to stay human. This movie had me on the edge of my seat, it has alot of plot twists, and good character development for the human and the vampire characters. This is definitly one of the best vampire movies to come out in the new millenium.

Useless Junk That Does Not Work & Smells Terrible - Seriously PU!

Seriously, don't waste your time on this. Even at $3.45, you would not get your shipping refunded right? Not to mention you will have to pay for shipping to send it back.Aside from the terrible odor that does not go away, it does not work. I laughed when I read another review that talked about the smell...... even if it had kept the combination I set, which it did not, the spread apart locking mechanism does not hold. Lucky for me that I was able to pull it out of the hole sine the combination I set did not work. It requires a tool to set the combo and it is not intuitive or easy at all, though it seems like an easy enough process. Anyway I set the combo, it seemed to take, then I stuck it in the computer and set it. After that the combination would not open the lock.......Warning Will Robinson..... Warning, Warning, BAD, BAD, BAD NEWS!!!

Same as 2k6

While I still contend that the 2k series is better than the Live series at being a more accurate, fun and realistic approach to basketball, I was really disappointed with this years go around. Not because it's a bad game by any means, but because it's nearly exactly like 2k6 in terms of the play. Whereas the xbox 360 version features new player movements, animations, etc. this one is just last years version with new rosters. If you own a 360, definitely spend the $60 to get that version, but if you're like me and stuck with the old xbox and already own 2k6 then this isn't worth your time. However, if you don't own any basketball games and are wondering between this and Live, 2k7 is where your money should go. I guess last year's version pushed everything it could out of the xbox, so there's not much more they could've done. Maybe that's why this game was $30.

Expensive propaganda

Even though I think the Author is right about some of the facts mentioned in his "book" (only 52 pages long!), the book gives no tips, no solutions, no fresh ideas that might help anyone at all.Grain Damage is just mere propaganda were the author complains meaninglessly for 52 pages.On top of that, each page is divided into three sections and only the middle one is filled with text: the other two are filled with uninteresting phrases about grains or fruits.Definitely not worth what the price AT ALL.

Great continuation of the series!

This book is definitely one of my favorites of the series. I just love how Dr. LaHaye and Mr. Jenkins take so much scripture and turn it into a very fascinating fictional story that is highly based on truth. This book was a great and easy read much like the rest of the books I've read in the series so far.

Wilco sounds like an outtake compared to this. With early REM and Neil Young influences, along with his own unique brand of folk and rock Jay is in a class by himself. Canyon adds a great touch to these songs. This is the best live album by anyone in a long, long time. From the opening acoustics to the Like a Hurricane jam at the end, this is a classic live album.No one should pass on this one.

DRM like this is killing PC gaming

First of all, this game promised soooo much. Now I know all games do, its called marketing. And yes, you can create really cute little creatures, and spaceships and such. But a whole new gaming experience? No, sorry its just a cute little game.Now, for the real problem. The one everybody is up in arms about (and it is a big one). You can only install this game 3 times. If your like me, and reinstall your OS, or major hardware upgrades, well you have a problem. You are going to have to reinstall, and there goes one of your allotments. Also you MUST connect to internet. Not good.Im sure the developers didnt ask for this, but its what it is. And they want 49 bucks, the final insult.

Great Movie - Blu-ray is a waste of money.

If you are considering buying this wonderful film adaptation of Anne Rice novel on Blu-Ray, don't bother. There is no evidence of up scaling, added features, "making of" documentaries, interviews with a cast...nothing. I think my DVD version looks better. The film is one of the best vampire movies ever made. Tom Cruise is dead on in his portrayal of Lestat, and Kirsten Dunst's portrayal of Claudia is delicious. She steals almost every scene she is in.Skip the Blu-Ray and get the DVD if you don't already own it.Interview with the Vampire

Good cup, but the lid needs some work...

The lid of this cup is in the sliding tab style, which I never like, because old coffee and coffee mixed with creamers collects under there creating what my aunt has dubbed 'coffee cheese.' Also, the turn tab in the middle tends to bump your nose a little if you do anything more than sip.After less than a week of use, the handle on the mug caused it to slip out of a cup pocket on a bag, fall to the ground and crack! Cracked so bad that even coffee would leak into the space with the pictures inside. I'm very disappointed, as their tumbler's without the handle tend to hold up to years of wear and tear before needing to be retired.

For students of the American criminal justice system

Journalist Joel Dyer creates an informative, critical, and iconoclastic survey of the United States' criminal justice system in The Perpetual Prisoner Machine: How America Profits From Crime. Dyer persuasively argues that contemporary criminal "justice" is disastrously impacted by violent media content, a push for privatization; an increasing dependence of politicians upon public opinion polling and campaign finance. This has all resulted in an explosion in the American prison population. The rapidly increasing numbers of prisoners, parolees and probationers is not the result of increasing crime rates, but because sectors of the American economy and political power structure find mass incarcerations to be profitable. The Perpetual Prisoner Machine is very strongly recommended reading for students of the American criminal justice system, prisoner reform movement supporters, sociologists, cultural anthropologists, and political science students.

Cute.

This is a cute presentation of a few of the first baby signs that are both easy and useful for any family. I wish there were more Sign Language DVD's in the Einstein series because this sort of leaves you hanging. The search for DVD's between this age and schoolage where ettiquette, sentence structure, classifiers, etc. start to be discussed is void. It would be nice if signing could be taken for granted and included in children's programing as a matter of course. Our granddaughter does now look for hands to mean something and Signing seems to be a stronger language for her than verbal instruction. She usually smiles when she signs to us because for her it seems to be both a game and powerful. "Adults" get it when she signs. This DVD did make a huge difference getting her started. We have a deaf daughter (25) so it is important in our family to have these materials around for everybody. This DVD was a positive fun start that made an immense change immediately for her at only 10-12 months.
