1	Excellent	Took some time to break it in, but it is the best in brining curley hair into control with layers!!!! Buy it!!!!!!!!!!	positive
1	I can't believe so many people missed out on this!!!!!!	This is one of the best albums of all time. It's masterfully produced and it goes to show how someone can turn their struggle into beautiful art. She was going through a divorce while creating the album. You can see sorrow, cynicism, hope, joy, and revelation in her lyrics, which are then offered on the platter of her AMAZING vocals. Few artists have the weighty presence she does, which can't be ignored. These are the songs that joyfully stick in your head, making you wish you had the cd nearby. It's everything it should be--cathartic, inspirational, and energizing. For God's sake! Buy the album!!!!	positive
1	Thermostat guard	This is a great product, the only problem was that on one of the guards (bought 2) the pin that holds the key section with the plastic was broken. Besides that, everything is great.	positive
0	Nothing special	I've been using this for a few weeks now, and I really don't see a difference. Appearex was better.	negative
0	The sizing was all wrong!!	I ordered the items because it was at a very good price. I have paid $40 per filter before. This would have been a good deal but the sizes was too large and could not fit in my ac unit. This product is mis-sized....	negative
0	AWESOME!!!	I fell in love with clay the first day he auditioned on AI. He is not only adorable he as a AWESOME voice!! girls are crazy over him!! and this CD is SOO GREAT!!IT'S BEAUTIFUL!! I LOVE CLAY SOO MUCH and if u say that you can't stand him then why are you wasting time reviewing over him??JELOUSY!!! : )Keep it up claymates! he has already gone double platinum!!! WOOWOO!	negative
0	Wrong edition	The book is in ok conditions, has some writting on it and some wear and tear, but it is the wrong edition.	negative
0	How to fix Greeting Card Factory	I installed Greeting Card Factory 1.02 on my Mac and it crashed every time I tried to run it from a user account. In the administrator account it ran fine. That's how I figured out that the problem is solely due to a poorly written installer that sets bad permissions. This can be fixed by running the Terminal from the administrator account and entering:sudo chmod -R 777 /Applications/Greeting\ Card\ Factory/Then you just enter your administrator password and everyone can use the program. I gave it just 2 stars because I blame the developer for this mess.	negative
1	It's worth it!	I was concerned about this book--it didn't grab me until about page 200 but then it was just a Roller Coaster--much like Red Storm Rising. Highly recommended!	positive
1	A great pocket computer for a great price	I looked at the Palms and the Handsprings but was unsure if I wanted to spend so much on something I wasn't totally sure I'd use. I happened to see the Casio at the store, asked about the return policy in case I hated it or it didn't work with my computer, was assured I could return it if needed, and decided to take the plunge. I got it home and within a few hours I was hooked. I'm not sure how I ever lived without this thing! I've already stored tons of schedules and address book info, and 4 or 5 excel worksheets and I've barely touched the memory capacity. The only problem I've run into is finding a nice case that fits comfortably, but that will be resolved eventually. I definitely recommend this handy little gadget!	positive
0	Worse of the Series	Brett Ratner screwed this up royally. My biggest problem with the film...Wolverine was TAME!!!! And that is enough to hate this movie. Cyclops always got the short end of the stick in this series of films, and he really had absolutely no point in this one. Jean Gray's death should have sparked Wolverine into further isolation, and hurt Cyclops, but not make him as distant as he became in this film. And what about the Colussus vs. Juggernaut battle? That was just screaming to occur in this film. And Angel? No point in the film. Saves daddy at the end and that's it. And why...why....kill Professor X. And the ending...I thought that I was going to see Hugh Jackman break out into a musical number as Angel swooped over the mountains. I wish Bryan Singer remakes X-Men 3, and I hope the planned Wolverine film kicks [...].	negative
0	SecureROM is not user-friendly!	Were this advertised as a game-rental for some number of years, I would be ok with that. I was ready to buy a brand new computer capaible of playing spore. But with the DRM as-advertised? Nope. I'm not willing to do it.I suppose my rating has less value because I haven't yet played the game. But frankly, EA's draconian measures are keeping me from doing so.EA: I love your games! I want to pay you money to play them. I am willing to pay more to play games like Spore, that are so amazingly open ended. But I'm not ok with the privacy and ownership issues implied by your DRM. Please re-consider your business practices. I'm not willing to play a pirated version of this game to avoid the DRM. I'm sorry.	negative
0	Don't bother	Very poor film that truly doesn't go anywhere until the last 3 minutes of the film. Very lame and not worth your time.	negative
1	A "must have" for any cannabis enthusiast	If you grow your own, this book is the first thing that you should invest in. All information on growing are given to the reader in a very comprehensive way. There are three books that should be in every cannabis enthusiast's home; "Marijuana growers guide"(Mel Frank, Ed Rosenthal) , "Hashish" (Rob Clarke" and "Stir crazy, cooking with cannabis" (Quick american archives) Definetly the best grow guide I've read. Read it!	positive
1	The Old and the New Come Together	Trademark Rush! Possessing a modern sound, they retain the signature hard-rock/metal sound they became known for in the seventies. The lyrics were less than up-to-snuff for Peart's usual intellectual themes, but they're not trite either. He does manage to address some of today's issues of technology, like in "Virtuality," one of the bands best metal pieces. If Rush had to return to their metal roots, this album is proof that they can do it without being nostalgic.	positive
1	This course helped us so much.	I highly recommend this DVD if you need to prepare for your first dance. We started out having no idea how to dance and followed each step of this video. The dance moves were easy to follow and with practice we were able to do them naturally and with ease. We then practiced the moves with our song for a few nights before our wedding. The result was great! We did a wonderful first dance and received commments such as: "Did you take dancing lessons?". Not too much time is needed to practice, but we did it slowly, in 3 weeks a few minutes every night. Actually it was fun and romantic, and we made a really nice dance at our wedding. Afterwards, we used our moves and turns because we are now dance partners as well.	positive
0	Vanguard VS55 mini tripod	Tripod is useless. Our CyberShot camera is too heavy for the little thing, and it collapses under the weight. (The telescoping legs close down.) The CyberShot is not a big camera.	negative
1	confy	OK, this where what I wanted, soft and confortable for sleeping time, but with the pants.... they are too high, thus they show in the back....	positive
0	Very disappointing	Every once in a while on the light music radio stations, you hear a song by Linda Eder, and say "who the heck is that?" Amazing voice, but still a little known artist. I decided to explore Linda Eder and buy her CDs. This first one was very disappointing, I don't think she had truly come into her own yet. Her later music is much better. The voice is amazing, I don't know why she isn't a bigger star. But stick with her last couple of CDs; the first was just a warm-up.	negative
1	Great as reviues	Easy to use and a plus to all the outher reviues. Ran into a piece of barb wire last fall clearing brush for my daughter,put a nick in the cutter, broke my heart. Called fiskars got 2 new blades about $7/00 each friendly courtious service. I have been logging firewood this summer and these are about as handy as another hand. I dont know if I could break them but I have made them squeek like the log splitter	positive
0	not very user friendly	i actually returned this book as it was a difficult cookbook..im a pretty seasoned cook and did not find this to my liking.	negative
0	disappointingly reduced size artwork	I remember enjoying DNAgents when it was coming out as a(monthly?) comic. So, I thought I'd enjoy the compilation book.I was wrong.The book is a bit bigger than an ordinary paperback, reducingthe artwork significantly. Also, the color covers are lost.I'm a big fan of Mark Evanier's work ... but I can't recommendthis book. Check out "Fanboy" instead, or any of hisPOV books.	negative
1	Excellent	Moghul Buffet is extremely well written. The characters are funny and each and every one of them is likeable in their own way. The author does a good job of portraying life in Peshawar, especially for women. I like that the novel does not insult Pakistani culture by pointing out its faults. Instead, it tells of things as they are and it showcases characters who are trying to make a change. Moghul Buffet is a refreshing read. Interesting and full of amusing twists and turns. My favorite aspect of the novel is how things are explained for the coincidences and misunderstandings that they are. The narrator doesn't attempt to fool the reader, instead he/she is involved in understanding why it is that characters are led to believe certain things. A simply wonderful novel.	positive
1	Practical and smart	Many children's nutrition books offer unrealistic advice. This book, written by a dietitian and parent, is very practical and realistic, and helps parents figure out how to feed their children healthy food without making the dinner table a battle ground. I found the suggestions very helpful, and I plan to make this book my standard baby shower gift for new mothers.	positive
0	Skewed History	Flyboys is skewed. Bradley starts with a non-objective, skewed view of war history (Japanese and American), collects and interprets facts to support his skewed view, and then writes a skewed book. This book is a disappointing lecture by a non-historian who proves he has no credentials or impartiality as an historian.	negative
1	Truly befuddled...	I look forward to going in to work just so I can puzzle and laugh over the day's quote. I just wish that our dear Oz Prime Minister could so confound us!	positive
0	"Yeah, I'm Styling" - Kate Spade	This book is nothing more than lists compiled by Kate to show how totally cool and styling she is. What better way to broadcast this message than to write a book about how great your tastes are. Need I say more? There is nothing new to be learned in this book, except oh yeah, according to Andy, "Style can't be purchased." Nevermind that any article of clothing mentioned in the book costs mucho dinero, and anything with a Kate Spade label costs big bucks, too.I would advise anyone wanting to learn good fashion advice to pass on this book.	negative
0	This book is no good	I bought this book hoping there would be some wonderful and innovative patterns. I opened the book and to my surprise there was not many patterns, just 100 ways to cut holes in you t - shirts. So if your into slashing up your clothes with razor blades, than this book is for you!	negative
1	no-smoke lovely fire	Missing the sound and view of a fire in the house is no longer an issue. Now I can create the contemplative mood and zen-like relaxation that only a crackling fire provides. Very realistic, particularly on a larger flat-screen TV. Perfect for saving trees too.	positive
0	The stitching was horrible.	I bought this at the store and the quality sucks. The stitching was horrible. After couple of months it came apart and then the whole side on both shoes started to come out and I couldn't wear the shoe again. Save your money. This is what happens when you do manufacturing in China. I will never buy anything from Merona again.	negative
1	An excellent handbook that covers all the basics	I picked this book up shortly after my first fly rod & have found it be great for understanding the basics of fly fishing. All of the equipement and tackle assembley is clearly stated & illustrated for the begining fly fisherman. Casting & stategey are covered as well, although I would reccomend picking up a book on casting as well.	positive
1	A Fairly Broad Overview of Tillich	Paul Tillich is a heavyweight in Protestant theory, like him or not. This book provides a fairly diverse array of his writings, and a small window into the mind of a prolific and well-known author. Tillich scholars themselves will have to judge how representative it is. I considered it a fair selection, and some of Tillich's writings to be more accessible than others. The selection of Tillich's writings on Socialism is very light, as the editor acknowledges. This book is probably not for the casual reader, so serious readers only need apply themselves to it. I agree with Tillich's liberal and radical proclivities, and he makes a fine argument for the complexity of religious symbolism, as well as a more progressive and inclusive perspective of other religions.	positive
1	Analog as its best....	The Ted Jensen remaster or the Sony Mastersound (out-of-print) are bright and compressed. I was curious, when Audio Fidelity announced "52nd Street."The Audio Fidelity sounds completely different, but in a very good way. A warm, balanced and dynamic mastering from beginning to end. I do prefer the Audio Fidelity pressing over any other version... of course that is my personal preference.	positive
0	Impossible to get past an ill-chosen gimmick	I remember seeing Stone Reader last year in a theater and thinking it was more interesting in the talking-over afterward than in the seeing. My main problem with this documentary is the gimmicky approach to the emptiness of life without books, an approach that does not convey what books mean or what they're for. An hommage to literature and reading can't be paid through a trick shortcut to profundity (i.e. an unconvincing search) or a filmmaker's inarticulateness. The sad truth is that most books don't make people think, and print is as neutral as a TV screen. Books are not magical objects, but that's how this rhythmless movie treats them.	negative
1	Great dress socks	I have to wear dress slacks and a tie to work.These socks cover my calf, don't itch and don't fall down, while not choking my delicate leg circulation.AND they look good.	positive
1	Dead Bang On!!	Sutton gets right to the heart of what it means to turn the tables so the rest of us can work in ***hole-free zones. Part of the problem in dealing with butt heads is really and truly naming them butt heads and not making excuses for there behavior. Or worse yet, finding fault with ourselves for letting them get under our skin. Well, no more snickering uncomfortably because we don't know what else to do. This should be required reading in business school, conflict resolution training and in behavior management courses. Take the time to plumb the profiles in the book and find yourself rewarded.	positive
0	Pathetic	I wasn't expecting much, just something to exercise my legs on without taking too much space in my little apartment. The tention does not go up NEARLY enough to make this useful at all, I might as well be peddling my legs the air! Just laughably bad, don't waste your time or money.	negative
1	Great plates!	These plates are great - they don't chip or break and wash easily. These smaller plates are especially good for portion control. I've got a whole set and would readily buy more. These are also good for little hands that like to drop things :-)	positive
0	Barfs	Little kids ruin great songs! They sing bad stuff and don't even know it! Don't buy it! Save your ears!	negative
0	Overrated piece of crap	I give this game minus 100 along with GTA 3. Why is everyone like this junk? The grafix are horrible (fugly characters) and boring, stupid. dumb story line. If you want to see well made rpg game, play Baten Kaitos. Now, that's real RPG with class!	negative
1	amazing	These are some of the most comfortable boots I own.. There are two reasons why I took a star off though- the first is that the entire heel is suede, and they do not come treated to protect against rain/snow/etc. The second is that there is not a real "tongue" in the boot which makes them slightly hard to zip if you have thicker calves.Other than that, they are amazing! I get compliments on them constantly, and they are so easy to walk in. I look forward to getting my second pair soon :)	positive
1	Good caricatures of office life	The book is mostly about people who worked in the computer industry during the last several years. The book makes caricatures of them, and tells fictional documentaries about how each of these characters has got along during the bull market and after it. I don't work in the computer field, but I found it a funny book anyway, because most of the caricatures are familiar anyway. If you work in an office in any capacity, you'll get a kick out of the book. The games people play with each other, the ridiculous managers, deadlines, and so on. It's a good read and lighthearted too.	positive
1	Inspiring	I have read many books on meditation and been a meditator for many years. I, in general like books which teach me something about meditation, but in this case, I found this book pure inspiration. Hearing how this woman affected the lives of many of the leaders of Insight Meditation folks and many in India is a blessing and a reminder of why to stay with it.Bruce GibbsDipa Ma: The Life and Legacy of a Buddhist Master	positive
1	You must read! it's a woderful captavating story!	I loved this book! You will not be disapointed. I love Julie Garwood and must say that this one was her best. You'll love all the characters. The heroine and the hero are lovable. This is well worth the money and you'll want to read it over agian. I defenitly have!	positive
1	More like 3 1/2 stars, the story's already been told	This book isn't at all about story as it is about character. Corran Horn is a heroic Jedi whose belief system falls very much in order with that of Luke Skywalker. Many of the jedi who are developed in the expanded universe are made to be opposed in theory to Skywalker. Horn is a new hero to root for whose last name isn't Skywalker or Solo (or Jade which eventually becomes a Skywalker so...).But if you read the Jedi academy books, you are getting a lot of the same story. It is an original spin on an unoriginal idea.The Novels are better for having Horn as a character, fans owe this book a "wookie like life debt". But the reader should know, the story may ring familiar.	positive
1	Not Bad, cool light saber action	Aside from starting over a level every time you die, its a good game. A must have collector's item for Star Wars lovers.Watch the game play video at JBugGamer on Youtube. [...]	positive
1	Essential kids collection	I have every book in the harry potter collection and most of the movies too. In theory, it's for my kids, but I too have read the books, watched the movies many times. The imagination/creativity that went into these books is astounding. Would recommend to every family	positive
1	Great value!!	Seagate is a recognized brand in the hard drive industry and hence i wasnt going to compromise on quality. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because the device has no capability to run without AC power and secondly becuase there are no indicators on the device (LED's) that would help a user to know that something is in process or not. Other than that it is a great thing to have around the house. I also like this device because if needed it is compatible with a Mac.	positive
1	The Case for Privatization	If anyone has any doubts about the overwhelming benefits of privatization in Latin America, they should read this book. As politicians like Kirchner, Morales and Chavez to a certain degree argue against what they see as the social cost of privatization, this book clearly shows that if the goal is to have increased state revenues aimed at social spending, privatization will more likely than nationalization bring that about through increased tax revenues (private companies in general pay more taxes than state companies), sustained job creation and reduced liabilities such as public debt accumulated by inefficient money-losing state companies.The authors and editors deserve praise for having produced a well-written book on the topic, with ample documentation and no political agenda beyond looking at the myths and reality of privatization in Latin America.(This is an excerpt of a longer review I wrote in Latin Business Chronicle, March 2006).	positive
0	Dull Book	This book just didn't do anything for me. It had no plot line whatsoever... just a bunch of mini, undetailed and uninteresting random stories about the people that live on Mango Street. The ending seemed sudden - it didnt build up to it like in other books. It just seems like she ran out of ideas so she just decided to end it. Highly disappointing.	negative
1	Season 2	I became interested in this program from other watchers and the number of accolades the program was receiving. We received a Roku player for Christmas and was delighted to find both series one and two available. Being a lover of English history I am now hooked on the program. I found the episodes about the war to be quite factual and find myself wondering how the actors endured those costumes! I can't imagine wearing evening gowns and tuxsedos to eat dinner in your own home every evening, let alone working in them. I wear shorts and sandals every day! Thank you for providing this excellent programing that takes us to another place and time.	positive
0	Hated it!	I recieved this pump as a gift after the birth of my second daughter. I figured, that once I returned to work, it would come in handy. My daughter was born almost a month ago. I have got to say this was the worst thing I ever recieved. The first few times I used it, it worked great. Actually better than the hospital grade one I rented with my first daughter. But after a week of using it, it seems to get stuck on the nippple. I have to literally pry my breast out of it. The motor seems to just suck and not release. I don't recommend this to anybody looking for a easier, but inexpensive pump.	negative
0	Seiko doesn't work	This watch is supposed to work by winding from action. Despite hours of back and forth movement, the watch would stop as soon as I did. I ended up returning it and selecting a different Seiko (battery operated).	negative
0	Did not like	I purchased this pillow for my neck when sitting in a chair. It is too large and too firm for a neck support. It is more suited for the back only.	negative
0	Started out great	This movie started out great but after the first few minutes I could have gone out of the room and missed nothing worth seeing.	negative
0	crap	Ill sum it up quick, the more you talk about panic /anxiety disorder, the more you join support groups and talk about it constantly , the more you make it a part of your life , the longer it will stay and the deeper it will get into your subconscious, which will make it harder to overcome, but overcome and be completely cured you can be and its very easy ,as much hate from other suffer's ill probably insight by saying that, the problem is that these type of books are the last thing you need. search the net for a guy named Charles Linden, the get back to living	negative
0	BAD BAD BAD	I really hated this book. Flyy girl was one of the best books i ever read. This book was how do i say it TRASH. I thought i did nothing but waist my time and money on this book. When i heard for the love of money flyy girl returns i was thinking oh another great book that i can refer my girls to but ant wrong THIS BOOKS SUCKS.the best part was the first chap. maybe 1st 2-3 pages when she was saying what was going on with every one, but after that it all goes down hill. :( i just wish i would have came here and read some reviews before i bought it.	negative
1	For thinning hair	This product is excellent for anyone with thinning hair, and really does a good job. Sometimes hard to find in stores, it is available on Amazon!	positive
0	I really wanted to like this.	I really wanted to like this, but the language is archaic and rambling. I made it through the first 20 pages, but couldn't handle anymore. I am familiar with his amazing story, and I had hoped his prose would carry me through, but alas, no.	negative
1	Great game, too much flack.	This game has gotten ridiculous reviews on a lot of sites. It is reviewed by pimple faced teens wanting a first person shooter. These people should realize that for a family man like myself this game is great. My 4 and 6 year old daughters love this game, and on top of that, it's pretty fun to play with my wife also. If people review games based on their target audience they'd know this is actually an excellent game.	positive
1	Charcoal Companion Golf BBQ Tool Set	Looked to be of good quality. It also looked a little on the large size. My son-n-law liked it as a Christmas gift.	positive
0	Bikram's Beginning Yoga	Seriously? They couldn't have edited him yelling at that poor woman with his condescending remarks? How terribly annoying. Had I not belonged to a local Bikram Studio I would have thought this yoga practice horrendous. Luckily, for his bank account, his teachers are far Superior to him. This should never have gone to market in its' present state. It should have either been a free download OR edited properly.	negative
1	Works Great	I have two of these cards, though I have never needed more than one to get all the photos I will take with my camera.Stores a huge amount of photos with room to spare. Very good deal and if you use a camera that needs an XD card this is a good deal and worth having.	positive
1	Worth the money	I Bought them, and I use them just to mix songs. They sound great. I can't say anything about scratching, since I don't do that, but for general use and song mixing, they sound outstanding. I would buy a different mixer though, since the one that comes with it leaves something to be desired.	positive
1	Include me in the "Mixed" blessing.	This story was a wonderful tale, with believable characters. The pace carried me to a sweet ending. This is my second time through the book.	positive
0	The problem with multiple storylines	The sentences in this book are beautiful, the paragraphs dense and packed with expression, and the chapters long and self-contained...With all this, the novel manages to be an utter failure. There are two major problems. First, the main plot line of the novel, the story being told, is rambling and long-winded, stylistically correct, and fantastically dull. I wanted to give up that part of the book, and only read the more contemporary of the storylines, which moves at a faster clip. The issue is that the more contemporary of the storylines (which is only adequate) is maybe 30% of the novel...when 70% of the novel is boring you to tears, that's bad enough. Second, the characters are forgettable. I would use more damning language, but they're not worth it..just forgettable. There's no defining characteristic, ZERO personality, and no life. So, it's a tremendously well written book, but a complete waste of time.	negative
0	Arrived Broken (Twice)	Received the teapot with a broken infuser, returned it for a replacement, the replacement arrived broken in exactly the same way. The packaging is not sufficient for the infuser. I returned for a refund.	negative
0	Do not waste your money	This a very badly made corset the front metal strips tear out cutting your skin not deep but it makes for pretty uncomfortable experance the satain tears out in the sides in genral its a total disapointment I really im dissatisfied	negative
1	Best fitness video I've ever seen!	My favorite excersize video, hands down! This woman, Jennifer Varno, takes you on a terrific workout through the woods, along the water and up into the hills of California. You forget that you're in your living room! I actually felt like I had an exilerating workout -- outside.Her personality is so friendly and patient yet she knows how to keep you going -- feels like a private coach that you look forward to excersizing with. Incredible. And the excersizes are creative and diverse; so its fun. I even do what she teaches in the video when Im out on the trails.What I liked about the workout is that you almost feel the ocean air and smell the redwoods as you go through the cycle of warmup, sweaty workout and peaceful cool down. Feels satisfying. I highly recommend this video to anyone who loves the outdoors but can't always get there. I'd even do this over classes or the gym...who needs the grey walls. :)	positive
0	Mediocre and disappointing	I loved The Queen's Fool, and The Other Boleyn Girl, but this book was a disappointment. Gregory's Elizabeth is week and lovesick, her Robert Dudley is self seeking and manipulative, and her Amy Dudly is annoying. Basically, all the characters are unsympathetic. I'm shocked by this since all the characters in her other books are complex and interesting.For a better Elizabeth I and Dudley love story, check out "I, Elizabeth" by Rosalind Miles.	negative
1	Toddler loves it	Very good programming for toddlers.The humor is age appropriate my grandchild was giggling out loud.pretty pleasant animation. nice	positive
1	Animals best collection	I was looking for all the radio hits.This has them all up to and including SPILL THE WINE plus a number of album cuts.If you just want one CD of the Animals try this.	positive
0	An average read	Herdegen is a great writer and completely in love with Wisconsin troops during the Civil War. Problem is, he's too in love with them and cannot handle the topic objectively. Even though this is one of his early works, he covers the same topic with a better sense of balance in some of his later publications. You can skip this one and go right on to some of his Iron Brigade histories and get the same story. He's written much better stuff lately anyway.	negative
0	Don't believe everything you read	This book was written to appeal to anti-American sentiment. It is full of baseless accusations and insinuations. Coming after 9/11, it's timing couldn't be worse. The author has a most definite anti-American bias which shines through after just the first few pages, and continues with his conspiracy theories and other assorted nonsense. If you're an anti-American terrorist or drug smuggler type, this book is for you. If you have an ounce of grey matter in your head, this book is not for you.	negative
1	Excelent pocket guide for team leaders	This is a must have for all team leaders - very useful in any case (not especially Six Sigma related).	positive
0	I was duped into buying this one.....it's just not that good	The sound and picture quality of this dvd is poor, which really disappointed me. I was on a waiting list to purchase this one, and I can honestly say that it was NOT worth the wait....or the price I paid for it.	negative
0	Horrid, Horrid Animation	Wow, I have seen better animation in programs from the 1970's, this movie was extremely painful to watch. For anyone that enjoys the books or anyone that enjoys a good animated show please rent this movie before you go out and buy it.	negative
0	Trouble	I thought I was ordering a complete door knob with everything that was needed to replace my old door knobs. This was not so and it was not worth the trouble to return them back. I did not want replacement, and according to what I read, it was not but I take responsibility for this bad choice, will make sure it will not take more trouble than it's worth to send products back to company. I do not recommend this to anyone.	negative
1	Fine Sphagnum - why buy foreign stuff?	It says it's from Wisconsin and it's unconditionally guaranteed. Doubt that the moss from Chile or wherever says that. Same brand as I got before at one of my area's best nurserys, and it wasn't cheaper locally.Beside all that, this moss might actually be grown by Norwegian bachelor farmers.	positive
0	Laughable	This product actually does seem to work, however, the "installation instructions" were, in my opinion, written by someone who has little understanding of the English language and/or little understanding of the product or of the basic principles of electricity and logic. There are items in the parts list that just don't seem to exist and diagrams that, to an engineer (like me) just don't make any sense, i.e., the "installation instructions" didn't work for me. If you have a good understanding of electricity and physics, you'll figure it out. Just use the "installation instructions" to light your cigar. If you're a typical do-it-yourselfer, and think electricity is magic, don't buy it! Sorry.Layn	negative
0	Same 'Ol Troubles As Before...	Okay, this is my third and last review on this product. The more I use Pinnacle Studio 9 Deluxe, the more I hate it!

0	"Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid..."	In my defense, this monstrosity entered my abode recently with other LPS sets that I actually coveted and won on ebay; in my bidding fervor, I didn't even notice this above set included in the lot- if I had, I would have had a crucifix readied at my front door. Certainly works well...you can hear the cat "slurping" from the bottle rooms away. Cat is placed on metal rod on heavy, battery-operated basket, magnetic bottle is placed to cat's pie-hole, and the result...well, let's just say that I am reminded of the guy that Rizzo takes to the school dance instead of Kenickie in the movie "Grease".	negative
0	Smell really starts to get irritating and won't go away	I got this stuff after reading so much about it and with the hype and all about how astronauts used it or whatever. Well, it seems fairly legit, but is smells like pine needles mixed with dirt.So, your nasal cavity is going to have a strong smell of pine needles mixed with dirt and for a long time throughout the day! I suggest you save your money and get sesame oil. Costs a heck of a lot cheaper and works REALLY well.	negative

0	Really too essential	I really like how this book is organised. Alphabetically, with 2-pages sections scattered throughout and dedicated to a particular themes (transformation, the living sky, mother earth, etc.). The terms concern mostly the different Indian nations and concepts related to believes, with particular regard to stories and characters. There are also so many nice, colour pictures.Such a shame that the material presented in here is so shallow.Stories and characters are related in such an essential way that they end up looking all the same and it's very difficult to remember anything about any story.Nations are presented just in terms of geographical origin, very few and short historical events, extremely essential information about their life today.In fact, everything is so essential, that the book can hardly be used even as reference. Really such a pity.	negative
0	MCS Training Kit	Aside from an occasional good definition, this book is an example of how not to write a technical book. The authors assume so much on the part of the reader that even this IT pro has difficulty following him. I am certified in 7 and I found this book quite incomprehensible. I am getting the Wrox series to see how good they are. I generelly find MS-Press books to be rather good but this one seems to be a copy of Books Online. In fact the authors skip over so much material casuaslly refering the reader to see "Books Online." If I wanted to do that, I wouldn't have gotten the book.	negative

0	Not an auspicious start	Back when I was in high school, I bought all of Styx's early (pre-stardom) albums because I was a huge fan with too much money on my hands. By and large, even a fan big will have a hard time digesting the overblown pretentious dated art rock featured on the band's debut album. That said, there are a few interesting moments such as portions of their bombastic rendering of Aaron Copeland's classical piece "Fanfare for the Common Man," and the semi-good rocker "I'm Gonna Make You Feel It." Otherwise, take it from a fan and move on instead to later periods in the Styx discography.	negative
1	THE Place to start with MDX	I have read quite a few technical books in my lifetime on topics ranging from computers to electrical and mechanical engineering, but this is the absolute best technical text I have ever seen. Admittedly this is a beginner's book, but the way complex topics of MDX are presented is nothing short of amazing. Other authors should really learn from Mark Whitehorn and Co. I only whish they wouldn't stop here and write and advanced text on MDX. In the meantime we are stuck suffering through "MDX Solutions".	positive
0	Perfect timing	I've been using a LaCie 500 GB Big Disk for managing a large amount of media for a Final Cut Pro Project. On my Mac, it worked fine for about a year -- until a week ago. Suddenly, the files were inaccessible, and a foreboding clicking sound came from the drive. I ran disk repair utility, and I was able to again access the files -- but 3/4 of them had been wiped out! I called LaCie, and the guy wasn't particularly helpful, but he did confirm that "that clicking sound is bad news."So I thought to myself -- at least I've backed up the data and the Big Disk is still under warranty -- I think. But when I dug out my receipt I found my purchase was exactly two weeks past one year ago. Ouch! Could they have timed it much better?So buyer beware -- and don't fail to back up your files!	negative
1	Excellent	This is by far Heather Graham's best of the Cameron saga. Daniel is the last of the southern cavaliers, yet he is determined to maintain his way of life even if he dies trying. Callie Michaelson is no southern belle. She doesn't wear hoops or ruffled taffeta petticoats, and she works hard on a farm. But yet she is strong willed, determined, tenacious and she loves and hates the dashing cavalier. This is a one day read. Treat yourself to this with a nice cold glass or warm cup of something to drink and savor the history of the Civil War (as knowone but Heather can picture it) and savor the love/hate romance between Daniel and Callie.	positive

0	Skip this and wait for the Playstation/PC version	I've had the original Namco Galaga/Galaxian Game Boy cartridge for quite a while, and it's one of my favorite games on this platform. I was curious about the new Galaga and picked it up... thankfully, I didn't spend too much money on it. The new Game Boy Galaga is a staggering disappointment. There is almost no challenge to it, with more time having been spent on the scrolling background graphics than on actual game play. The original Galaga cartridge demands a lot of the player. This new edition only demands that you stay awake (hey, sometimes it's hard!). The Playstation/PC version will certainly be much better than this, so save your money and wait for that one.	negative

1	Very interesting...	Obviously, one has to be familiar with upstate New York to fully appreciate this work. For those who are, it is very interesting. Haydon gives a seemingly well researched account of the upstate region between the war of 1812 up to the 1840's. The book is composed of selections from journals and books that British visitors wrote while visiting, as well as commentary from the author. It covers most of upstate with the exception of the Adirondacks, which the author claims was not fully explored (by British tourists) until later in the century. The author also claims to have preferentially included selections from lesser-known authors over those famous folks that can mostly be found elsewhere. I recommend this book, especially for people who are from the region and interested in reading some historical accounts from the early 19th century.	positive

I can't believe so many people missed out on this!!!!!!

This is one of the best albums of all time. It's masterfully produced and it goes to show how someone can turn their struggle into beautiful art. She was going through a divorce while creating the album. You can see sorrow, cynicism, hope, joy, and revelation in her lyrics, which are then offered on the platter of her AMAZING vocals. Few artists have the weighty presence she does, which can't be ignored. These are the songs that joyfully stick in your head, making you wish you had the cd nearby. It's everything it should be--cathartic, inspirational, and energizing. For God's sake! Buy the album!!!!

How to fix Greeting Card Factory

I installed Greeting Card Factory 1.02 on my Mac and it crashed every time I tried to run it from a user account. In the administrator account it ran fine. That's how I figured out that the problem is solely due to a poorly written installer that sets bad permissions. This can be fixed by running the Terminal from the administrator account and entering:sudo chmod -R 777 /Applications/Greeting\ Card\ Factory/Then you just enter your administrator password and everyone can use the program. I gave it just 2 stars because I blame the developer for this mess.

A great pocket computer for a great price

I looked at the Palms and the Handsprings but was unsure if I wanted to spend so much on something I wasn't totally sure I'd use. I happened to see the Casio at the store, asked about the return policy in case I hated it or it didn't work with my computer, was assured I could return it if needed, and decided to take the plunge. I got it home and within a few hours I was hooked. I'm not sure how I ever lived without this thing! I've already stored tons of schedules and address book info, and 4 or 5 excel worksheets and I've barely touched the memory capacity. The only problem I've run into is finding a nice case that fits comfortably, but that will be resolved eventually. I definitely recommend this handy little gadget!

Worse of the Series

Brett Ratner screwed this up royally. My biggest problem with the film...Wolverine was TAME!!!! And that is enough to hate this movie. Cyclops always got the short end of the stick in this series of films, and he really had absolutely no point in this one. Jean Gray's death should have sparked Wolverine into further isolation, and hurt Cyclops, but not make him as distant as he became in this film. And what about the Colussus vs. Juggernaut battle? That was just screaming to occur in this film. And Angel? No point in the film. Saves daddy at the end and that's it. And why...why....kill Professor X. And the ending...I thought that I was going to see Hugh Jackman break out into a musical number as Angel swooped over the mountains. I wish Bryan Singer remakes X-Men 3, and I hope the planned Wolverine film kicks [...].

I *want* to pay you money to play them. I am willing to pay *more* to play games like Spore, that are so amazingly open ended. But I'm not ok with the privacy and ownership issues implied by your DRM. Please re-consider your business practices. I'm not willing to play a pirated version of this game to avoid the DRM.

The Old and the New Come Together

Trademark Rush! Possessing a modern sound, they retain the signature hard-rock/metal sound they became known for in the seventies. The lyrics were less than up-to-snuff for Peart's usual intellectual themes, but they're not trite either. He does manage to address some of today's issues of technology, like in "Virtuality," one of the bands best metal pieces. If Rush had to return to their metal roots, this album is proof that they can do it without being nostalgic.

This course helped us so much.

I highly recommend this DVD if you need to prepare for your first dance. We started out having no idea how to dance and followed each step of this video. The dance moves were easy to follow and with practice we were able to do them naturally and with ease. We then practiced the moves with our song for a few nights before our wedding. The result was great! We did a wonderful first dance and received commments such as: "Did you take dancing lessons?". Not too much time is needed to practice, but we did it slowly, in 3 weeks a few minutes every night. Actually it was fun and romantic, and we made a really nice dance at our wedding. Afterwards, we used our moves and turns because we are now dance partners as well.

Every once in a while on the light music radio stations, you hear a song by Linda Eder, and say "who the heck is that?" Amazing voice, but still a little known artist.

The voice is amazing, I don't know why she isn't a bigger star. But stick with her last couple of CDs; the first was just a warm-up.

Excellent

Moghul Buffet is extremely well written. The characters are funny and each and every one of them is likeable in their own way. The author does a good job of portraying life in Peshawar, especially for women. I like that the novel does not insult Pakistani culture by pointing out its faults. Instead, it tells of things as they are and it showcases characters who are trying to make a change. Moghul Buffet is a refreshing read. Interesting and full of amusing twists and turns. My favorite aspect of the novel is how things are explained for the coincidences and misunderstandings that they are. The narrator doesn't attempt to fool the reader, instead he/she is involved in understanding why it is that characters are led to believe certain things. A simply wonderful novel.

A Fairly Broad Overview of Tillich

Paul Tillich is a heavyweight in Protestant theory, like him or not. This book provides a fairly diverse array of his writings, and a small window into the mind of a prolific and well-known author. Tillich scholars themselves will have to judge how representative it is. I considered it a fair selection, and some of Tillich's writings to be more accessible than others. The selection of Tillich's writings on Socialism is very light, as the editor acknowledges. This book is probably not for the casual reader, so serious readers only need apply themselves to it. I agree with Tillich's liberal and radical proclivities, and he makes a fine argument for the complexity of religious symbolism, as well as a more progressive and inclusive perspective of other religions.

I do prefer the Audio Fidelity pressing over any other version... of course that is my personal preference.

Impossible to get past an ill-chosen gimmick

I remember seeing Stone Reader last year in a theater and thinking it was more interesting in the talking-over afterward than in the seeing. My main problem with this documentary is the gimmicky approach to the emptiness of life without books, an approach that does not convey what books mean or what they're for. An hommage to literature and reading can't be paid through a trick shortcut to profundity (i.e. an unconvincing search) or a filmmaker's inarticulateness. The sad truth is that most books don't make people think, and print is as neutral as a TV screen. Books are not magical objects, but that's how this rhythmless movie treats them.

These are some of the most comfortable boots I own..

I get compliments on them constantly, and they are so easy to walk in. I look forward to getting my second pair soon :)

Good caricatures of office life

The book is mostly about people who worked in the computer industry during the last several years. The book makes caricatures of them, and tells fictional documentaries about how each of these characters has got along during the bull market and after it. I don't work in the computer field, but I found it a funny book anyway, because most of the caricatures are familiar anyway. If you work in an office in any capacity, you'll get a kick out of the book. The games people play with each other, the ridiculous managers, deadlines, and so on. It's a good read and lighthearted too.

More like 3 1/2 stars, the story's already been told

This book isn't at all about story as it is about character. Corran Horn is a heroic Jedi whose belief system falls very much in order with that of Luke Skywalker. Many of the jedi who are developed in the expanded universe are made to be opposed in theory to Skywalker. Horn is a new hero to root for whose last name isn't Skywalker or Solo (or Jade which eventually becomes a Skywalker so...).But if you read the Jedi academy books, you are getting a lot of the same story. It is an original spin on an unoriginal idea.The Novels are better for having Horn as a character, fans owe this book a "wookie like life debt". But the reader should know, the story may ring familiar.

Great value!!

Seagate is a recognized brand in the hard drive industry and hence i wasnt going to compromise on quality. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because the device has no capability to run without AC power and secondly becuase there are no indicators on the device (LED's) that would help a user to know that something is in process or not. Other than that it is a great thing to have around the house. I also like this device because if needed it is compatible with a Mac.

The Case for Privatization

If anyone has any doubts about the overwhelming benefits of privatization in Latin America, they should read this book. As politicians like Kirchner, Morales and Chavez to a certain degree argue against what they see as the social cost of privatization, this book clearly shows that if the goal is to have increased state revenues aimed at social spending, privatization will more likely than nationalization bring that about through increased tax revenues (private companies in general pay more taxes than state companies), sustained job creation and reduced liabilities such as public debt accumulated by inefficient money-losing state companies.The authors and editors deserve praise for having produced a well-written book on the topic, with ample documentation and no political agenda beyond looking at the myths and reality of privatization in Latin America.(This is an excerpt of a longer review I wrote in Latin Business Chronicle, March 2006).

I don't recommend this to anybody looking for a easier, but inexpensive pump.

crap

Ill sum it up quick, the more you talk about panic /anxiety disorder, the more you join support groups and talk about it constantly , the more you make it a part of your life , the longer it will stay and the deeper it will get into your subconscious, which will make it harder to overcome, but overcome and be completely cured you can be and its very easy ,as much hate from other suffer's ill probably insight by saying that, the problem is that these type of books are the last thing you need. search the net for a guy named Charles Linden, the get back to living

BAD BAD BAD

I really hated this book. Flyy girl was one of the best books i ever read. This book was how do i say it TRASH. I thought i did nothing but waist my time and money on this book. When i heard for the love of money flyy girl returns i was thinking oh another great book that i can refer my girls to but ant wrong THIS BOOKS SUCKS.the best part was the first chap. maybe 1st 2-3 pages when she was saying what was going on with every one, but after that it all goes down hill. :( i just wish i would have came here and read some reviews before i bought it.

I really wanted to like this.

I really wanted to like this, but the language is archaic and rambling. I made it through the first 20 pages, but couldn't handle anymore. I am familiar with his amazing story, and I had hoped his prose would carry me through, but alas, no.

Great game, too much flack.

This game has gotten ridiculous reviews on a lot of sites. It is reviewed by pimple faced teens wanting a first person shooter. These people should realize that for a family man like myself this game is great. My 4 and 6 year old daughters love this game, and on top of that, it's pretty fun to play with my wife also. If people review games based on their target audience they'd know this is actually an excellent game.

Bikram's Beginning Yoga

Seriously? They couldn't have edited him yelling at that poor woman with his condescending remarks? How terribly annoying. Had I not belonged to a local Bikram Studio I would have thought this yoga practice horrendous. Luckily, for his bank account, his teachers are far Superior to him. This should never have gone to market in its' present state. It should have either been a free download OR edited properly.

Works Great

I have two of these cards, though I have never needed more than one to get all the photos I will take with my camera.Stores a huge amount of photos with room to spare. Very good deal and if you use a camera that needs an XD card this is a good deal and worth having.

Worth the money

I Bought them, and I use them just to mix songs. They sound great. I can't say anything about scratching, since I don't do that, but for general use and song mixing, they sound outstanding. I would buy a different mixer though, since the one that comes with it leaves something to be desired.

The problem with multiple storylines

The sentences in this book are beautiful, the paragraphs dense and packed with expression, and the chapters long and self-contained...With all this, the novel manages to be an utter failure. There are two major problems. First, the main plot line of the novel, the story being told, is rambling and long-winded, stylistically correct, and fantastically dull. I wanted to give up that part of the book, and only read the more contemporary of the storylines, which moves at a faster clip. The issue is that the more contemporary of the storylines (which is only adequate) is maybe 30% of the novel...when 70% of the novel is boring you to tears, that's bad enough. Second, the characters are forgettable. I would use more damning language, but they're not worth it..just forgettable. There's no defining characteristic, ZERO personality, and no life. So, it's a tremendously well written book, but a complete waste of time.

Best fitness video I've ever seen!

My favorite excersize video, hands down! This woman, Jennifer Varno, takes you on a terrific workout through the woods, along the water and up into the hills of California. You forget that you're in your living room! I actually felt like I had an exilerating workout -- outside.Her personality is so friendly and patient yet she knows how to keep you going -- feels like a private coach that you look forward to excersizing with. Incredible. And the excersizes are creative and diverse; so its fun. I even do what she teaches in the video when Im out on the trails.What I liked about the workout is that you almost feel the ocean air and smell the redwoods as you go through the cycle of warmup, sweaty workout and peaceful cool down. Feels satisfying. I highly recommend this video to anyone who loves the outdoors but can't always get there. I'd even do this over classes or the gym...who needs the grey walls. :)

Mediocre and disappointing

I loved The Queen's Fool, and The Other Boleyn Girl, but this book was a disappointment. Gregory's Elizabeth is week and lovesick, her Robert Dudley is self seeking and manipulative, and her Amy Dudly is annoying. Basically, all the characters are unsympathetic. I'm shocked by this since all the characters in her other books are complex and interesting.For a better Elizabeth I and Dudley love story, check out "I, Elizabeth" by Rosalind Miles.

An average read

Herdegen is a great writer and completely in love with Wisconsin troops during the Civil War. Problem is, he's too in love with them and cannot handle the topic objectively. Even though this is one of his early works, he covers the same topic with a better sense of balance in some of his later publications. You can skip this one and go right on to some of his Iron Brigade histories and get the same story. He's written much better stuff lately anyway.

Don't believe everything you read

This book was written to appeal to anti-American sentiment. It is full of baseless accusations and insinuations. Coming after 9/11, it's timing couldn't be worse. The author has a most definite anti-American bias which shines through after just the first few pages, and continues with his conspiracy theories and other assorted nonsense. If you're an anti-American terrorist or drug smuggler type, this book is for you. If you have an ounce of grey matter in your head, this book is not for you.

Trouble

I thought I was ordering a complete door knob with everything that was needed to replace my old door knobs. This was not so and it was not worth the trouble to return them back. I did not want replacement, and according to what I read, it was not but I take responsibility for this bad choice, will make sure it will not take more trouble than it's worth to send products back to company. I do not recommend this to anyone.

Fine Sphagnum - why buy foreign stuff?

It says it's from Wisconsin and it's unconditionally guaranteed. Doubt that the moss from Chile or wherever says that. Same brand as I got before at one of my area's best nurserys, and it wasn't cheaper locally.Beside all that, this moss might actually be grown by Norwegian bachelor farmers.

Laughable

This product actually does seem to work, however, the "installation instructions" were, in my opinion, written by someone who has little understanding of the English language and/or little understanding of the product or of the basic principles of electricity and logic. There are items in the parts list that just don't seem to exist and diagrams that, to an engineer (like me) just don't make any sense, i.e., the "installation instructions" didn't work for me. If you have a good understanding of electricity and physics, you'll figure it out. Just use the "installation instructions" to light your cigar. If you're a typical do-it-yourselfer, and think electricity is magic, don't buy it! Sorry.Layn

Same 'Ol Troubles As Before...

Okay, this is my third and last review on this product. The more I use Pinnacle Studio 9 Deluxe, the more I hate it! This program can't handle intermediate/advance video/audio editing at all and is becoming a complete waste of time and money. If you wanna transfer your old grandma home videos to DVD, this may be okay, but outside of that, don't even waste your time or money!

"Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid..."

In my defense, this monstrosity entered my abode recently with other LPS sets that I actually coveted and won on ebay; in my bidding fervor, I didn't even notice this above set included in the lot- if I had, I would have had a crucifix readied at my front door. Certainly works well...you can hear the cat "slurping" from the bottle rooms away. Cat is placed on metal rod on heavy, battery-operated basket, magnetic bottle is placed to cat's pie-hole, and the result...well, let's just say that I am reminded of the guy that Rizzo takes to the school dance instead of Kenickie in the movie "Grease".

Smell really starts to get irritating and won't go away

I got this stuff after reading so much about it and with the hype and all about how astronauts used it or whatever. Well, it seems fairly legit, but is smells like pine needles mixed with dirt.So, your nasal cavity is going to have a strong smell of pine needles mixed with dirt and for a long time throughout the day! I suggest you save your money and get sesame oil. Costs a heck of a lot cheaper and works REALLY well.

Really too essential

I really like how this book is organised. Alphabetically, with 2-pages sections scattered throughout and dedicated to a particular themes (transformation, the living sky, mother earth, etc.). The terms concern mostly the different Indian nations and concepts related to believes, with particular regard to stories and characters. There are also so many nice, colour pictures.Such a shame that the material presented in here is so shallow.Stories and characters are related in such an essential way that they end up looking all the same and it's very difficult to remember anything about any story.Nations are presented just in terms of geographical origin, very few and short historical events, extremely essential information about their life today.In fact, everything is so essential, that the book can hardly be used even as reference. Really such a pity.

MCS Training Kit

Aside from an occasional good definition, this book is an example of how not to write a technical book. The authors assume so much on the part of the reader that even this IT pro has difficulty following him. I am certified in 7 and I found this book quite incomprehensible. I am getting the Wrox series to see how good they are. I generelly find MS-Press books to be rather good but this one seems to be a copy of Books Online. In fact the authors skip over so much material casuaslly refering the reader to see "Books Online." If I wanted to do that, I wouldn't have gotten the book.

Dave isn't Atlanis

If you were a fan of Dave's work up until Everyday, you're not alone. Dave's "sellout-tinnybopping-TLR" album is his worst yet, Hardly having and resemblance to the Dave Matthews Band which used more instruments than Dave's electric guitar and the Glen Ballard lyrics that could have been made in a studio "Anyday". If you want a real Dave CD find a way to go the scraped Lillywhite Sessions... That's the 5 star album.

Not an auspicious start

Back when I was in high school, I bought all of Styx's early (pre-stardom) albums because I was a huge fan with too much money on my hands. By and large, even a fan big will have a hard time digesting the overblown pretentious dated art rock featured on the band's debut album. That said, there are a few interesting moments such as portions of their bombastic rendering of Aaron Copeland's classical piece "Fanfare for the Common Man," and the semi-good rocker "I'm Gonna Make You Feel It." Otherwise, take it from a fan and move on instead to later periods in the Styx discography.

THE Place to start with MDX

I have read quite a few technical books in my lifetime on topics ranging from computers to electrical and mechanical engineering, but this is the absolute best technical text I have ever seen. Admittedly this is a beginner's book, but the way complex topics of MDX are presented is nothing short of amazing. Other authors should really learn from Mark Whitehorn and Co. I only whish they wouldn't stop here and write and advanced text on MDX. In the meantime we are stuck suffering through "MDX Solutions".

Perfect timing

I've been using a LaCie 500 GB Big Disk for managing a large amount of media for a Final Cut Pro Project. On my Mac, it worked fine for about a year -- until a week ago. Suddenly, the files were inaccessible, and a foreboding clicking sound came from the drive. I ran disk repair utility, and I was able to again access the files -- but 3/4 of them had been wiped out! I called LaCie, and the guy wasn't particularly helpful, but he did confirm that "that clicking sound is bad news."So I thought to myself -- at least I've backed up the data and the Big Disk is still under warranty -- I think. But when I dug out my receipt I found my purchase was exactly two weeks past one year ago. Ouch! Could they have timed it much better?So buyer beware -- and don't fail to back up your files!

Excellent

This is by far Heather Graham's best of the Cameron saga. Daniel is the last of the southern cavaliers, yet he is determined to maintain his way of life even if he dies trying. Callie Michaelson is no southern belle. She doesn't wear hoops or ruffled taffeta petticoats, and she works hard on a farm. But yet she is strong willed, determined, tenacious and she loves and hates the dashing cavalier. This is a one day read. Treat yourself to this with a nice cold glass or warm cup of something to drink and savor the history of the Civil War (as knowone but Heather can picture it) and savor the love/hate romance between Daniel and Callie.

The perfect entertainment

What I love about rammstein is first off that they sing in German (well they had to but still), second off their show is just great, when I saw them I was standing way up front and it was great!!!!!!!!!! Only too bad some songs sound a bit the same ... But still like I stated above they are the perfect entertainment!!!!!!! And the lyrics are 'funny' in a way, they don't take themselves to serious! I have all of their cd's and Sehnsucht is the best (together with the single-cd's 'Stripped' (funny to hear Till sing English) and 'Das Modell') If you like to go crazy in a 'good' way I should defeniatelly buy this cd!!

Skip this and wait for the Playstation/PC version

I've had the original Namco Galaga/Galaxian Game Boy cartridge for quite a while, and it's one of my favorite games on this platform. I was curious about the new Galaga and picked it up... thankfully, I didn't spend *too* much money on it. The new Game Boy Galaga is a staggering disappointment. There is almost no challenge to it, with more time having been spent on the scrolling background graphics than on actual game play. The original Galaga cartridge demands a lot of the player. This new edition only demands that you stay awake (hey, sometimes it's hard!). The Playstation/PC version will certainly be much better than this, so save your money and wait for that one.

Very interesting...

Obviously, one has to be familiar with upstate New York to fully appreciate this work. For those who are, it is very interesting. Haydon gives a seemingly well researched account of the upstate region between the war of 1812 up to the 1840's. The book is composed of selections from journals and books that British visitors wrote while visiting, as well as commentary from the author. It covers most of upstate with the exception of the Adirondacks, which the author claims was not fully explored (by British tourists) until later in the century. The author also claims to have preferentially included selections from lesser-known authors over those famous folks that can mostly be found elsewhere. I recommend this book, especially for people who are from the region and interested in reading some historical accounts from the early 19th century.

Get lost in the detail.

This book is full of detail so you feel like you are on a journey of discovery in much more than the story of the characters. I discovered some history, some geography and about ships sort of. Very interesting. I was disappointed that the story didn't finish. I wanted to know what happened to the woman at the beginning if the story. I needed more.
