0	How terribly aweful.	I just kept fast forwarding. Good special effects. I don't think I ever want to see another movie ever again.	negative
1	THE FUTURE OF THE GUITAR IS SECURE	If a teenager can produce heavy rocking guitar blues of this quality, there is no need to worry. This is blues guitar at it's best. If this came from a seasoned player with a long trackrecord, you'd hail it as one of his best. This player is barely into his teens and created this amazing blues cd. The playing is off the charts and his version of LITTLE WINGS is the best I've ever heard. I'm sure ERIC will figure heavily in the future of electric guitar. He already has an amazing phrase book and infuses everything he plays with his own imprint.If you have any kind of interest in the electric guitar, you have to hear this !!!!!	positive
1	strangely compelling	Barry Hannah is the most successful graduate of the English Department at Mississippi College, however, you will be hard-pressed to find his name mentioned there today. The main reason is this book. This book is largely an autobiography of Hannah, and who knows how much of it is true? The college in the book is Mississippi College, and Hannah's criticisms are honest and embellishing, as are the other observations that he makes in this journey of a book. Geronimo Rex is strangely compelling, and Hannah pulled me right into his head as he tells this story of growing up in the world. Good book, and a must read for anyone from Mississippi College.	positive
0	Wont work on Logitech Deluxe 250 Keyboard	Tried to use this on a Logitech Deluxe 250 Keyboard and Logitech M-SBF96 mouseLogitech PSE Optical Wheel Mouse - Black (Pack of 100)(not a 100 of them... just one.), no luck on either of them working. Lights light up on both devices but windows7, RHEL and bios don't pick up the signal. Was just going to throw it away (cost $2 with free prime shipping), but returning it at Amazons expense since they really should just remove this item due to the high failure rate.	negative
0	Cheap	This item was purchased for it's price and we got what we paid for, the interior ring is made of metal which is rusting. The tubing is flimsy and of poor quality plastic. I would not recomend this brand, I would pay $20.00 at walgreens for a much better quality one that has the same items as this but of far superior quality.	negative
1	last of the set	great series. Even non-Christians should read at least the first book because the idea is great as fiction. A perfect ending.	positive
0	this wont work with every tab	I thought since wacom created this item it would work for any wacom... I was wrong and it wont work...plus it is super small, its the size of a gameboy advance pen. save your money and don't buy this rip off...	negative
1	Great cookbook and personal essays of Korean life	I'm part of a military family currently living in South Korea. I recently bought this cookbook on base after my husband and I grew to love Korean food.We had dinner at a local Korean restaurant and ate clams with a delicious sauce as one of the many side dishes. I asked one of my Korean friends for the recipe and she ended up making me some because she said it was hard to make. What sold me on this cookbook is that it had the recipe for that very sauce on page four, Seasoned Soy Sauce. It is very good on dumplings and steamed rice. We also love bulgogi or "fire meat" and the cookbook offered that recipe as well.Surprisingly, Eating Korean is not only a great resouce for Korean recipes, but also and enjoyable read. The author, Cecilia Hae-Jin Lee's writing style is warm and colorful. Her personal essays paint fun and interesting glimpses of her childhood in South Korea. I highly recommend it!	positive
1	a great way to spend a rainy day	i liked this book cause it was different from others i've read. It answered a lot of the questions that The Lost Years of Merlin made me think up, but it still left some in my mind. i could see merlin becoming a great wizard and everything. i can't wate for the next one in the trilogy!!!!	positive
1	Broken glass	First, it took quite a while for my glasses to arrive. Like the other reviewer, I had trouble with breakage: one of the two glasses was broken on the stem. But I had no trouble with the quick replacement shipment, which yielded two perfect specimens of this gorgeous glass! My fiance and I will be using these to toast our wedding next year, and they're just beautiful for such an occcasion.	positive
0	Totally One-Sided.	The most mean-spirited and one-sided biography I have ever read. The author seems to hate both Kurt Cobain and the city of Seattle, which he trashes every chance he gets. Books like this are a complete waste of time and make you feel "burned" for having read it. Ugh.	negative
1	Brilliant on so many levels	Every episode of this new Sherlock is well done and great entertainment. I think I have seen or read almost all of the Sherlock movies/tv/books. If you are a fan like I am, you will love the clever rework of the original Holmes stories -- half the fun is noticing the modern interpretation of the classic characterizations and plots. While the actor portraying Sherlock is brilliant, my favorite parts have to be the portrayal of Watson and Mrs. Hudson. Both characters are thoroughly modern characters, but so much more like what I envisioned them to be like from the original stories. the only complaint is simply not more episodes fast enough!	positive
0	Horrible movie.	This movie is 'Spy Kids'. The people who liked this movie must just happy that some form of GI Joe was on the big screen. This seriously couldn't have been worse if they were fighting Barney.	negative
0	Another Kindle Disaster	For God's sake, Amazon, don't you ever look at Kindle products before putting them for sale? The words in this Kindle edition are run together. From now on, I will rate all Kindle disasters as one star.	negative
1	Wow, this has all the green stuff!!	I have been using Emerald Balance which has Stevia added as a sweetener. It was great if you were making a smoothie but much too sweet if mixed with juices. I like this Green Vibrance because I can sweeten it if I want. It doesn't end up too sweet when mixed in a smoothie with a sweet fruit like a banana.I am not sure why the directions says "Best taken 30-45 minutes after eating." This is a product that seems to be taken in the a.m. mixed with juice or in a smoothie. Actually it would to be good to drink BEFORE eating as an appetite suppressant. Could it upset your stomach? Otherwise, this has ALL the green stuff, and then some you could ever want.	positive
1	solid 4 out of 5	I read this book in one day. Not necessarily because it was a "can't put it down page-turner", but more because I had a Sunday with nothing else to do. I am always a fan of well-researched work, and Gruen has definitely done her work here. I was somewhat disappointed in the lack of details in character development and/or setting, but that's just a personal preference. I have read some other reviews that say the book was drawn out and too lengthy, but I disagree. I feel that it moved rather well and flowed. My biggest problem with the book was the last chapter. It seemed to be a bit too fanciful and didn't really match the tone of the rest of the book. Still definitely worth reading though.	positive
1	Worked Great!	Great Product! the quality is great nice Glass construction. Will buy more products from them in the future.	positive
0	Dance your way bored.	I thought that this would be a good way to get into shape, but I couldn't be more wrong. It is very slow paced, and when you are trying to follow along, they switch moves before telling you what they're doing, so you can't really follow. I would not recommend this tape to anyone.	negative
0	Checksoft 2006 home and business	returned product because it was difficult for me to use and not what I wanted. Returning the product to company was easy. I would do business with them again if they had a product I want.	negative
1	Great Sound	Although there was some confusion at first on this item being back ordered, when speakers were received my son was very pleased. He said the speakers sounded just as good on low volume as on high. The quality was awesome. As a college student the quality (and amplification)of the speakers is key. Also the compatibility of the speakers with computer, iPod, etc was a big plus for versatility. The people at Computer Brain were very helpful.	positive
1	clever puzzle	this movie is a very clever puzzle consisting of many flashes real and subconcious that tie together. if you are able to tie this puzzle pieces together you will get enormous satisfaction with the movie. if not ask somebody to explain:)trust though, this movie makes perfect sense!	positive
0	BEWARE, THIS FILTER POLLUTES WATER	I bought set of 3 filters from Amazon about 2 month ago and immediately installed one filter into my fridge. After a few days of usage my wife pointed my attention that water coming out the fridge contains tiny, almost invisible flakes. I think it some sort of internal filtering staff coming out of the filter. I tried to use another filter from the set with the same result - flakes. Just think for a second those flakes are actually some sort of chemically active reagents and we have to drink that water!!!	negative
0	JUNK	THE ONLY POWERFUL BURST THE DRAIN BUSTERGIVES IS FROM THE HOLE IN YOUR POCKETS.DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. IT DOESN'T WORK!!	negative
0	Horrible	My friend game me this CD to definatly tick me off. It was something new so I gave it a try. It's man hating lyrics just left me especulating over how anyone can listen to this crap. To make it short, I threw this CD out the window.	negative
1	Fantastic	I find it interesting that all of the one star reviews comment on the series straying from what takes place in the books. If people look at some of the comments Jim Butcher has written about the show they would see that it is not meant to line up perfectly that the show is an alternate universe (for lack of a better word) than that of the book.Although I really would have liked to see Dresden get around in an awful dilapidated VW Bug and would have liked to see Billy and his crew on the show, the series was none the less fantastic. Bob became one of my favorite characters since it is easier to become attached to something with ghost than a disembodied cloud that lives in a skull on Harry's shelf. Sadly like many worthwhile shows Sci-Fi no longer wishes let the company that produced the movie make another season. The company seems to be willing according to the various petitions going around the net if anyone is interested in signing one of them.	positive
1	Limited options; otherwise good timer	I was hoping to buy a timer that allowed me to set specific times (you know, like on a clock). This one only has a few settings that have the timer on for one, two, or three hours after sunset. It responds to a photoelectric sensor that registers sunset and sunrise. If you are looking for a timer with these sort of limited settings, then this one is a good example -- it is tough and has lasted through a good deal of wind and rain without any problems.	positive
0	Very Disapointed	I was actually pretty excited to see how the RoboRaptor would perform after it took me 15-20min. and a screwdriver just to get it out of the box. To my dismay, it was far from satisifying.1. On the carpet it cannont walk, at all. I put it in the fastest walk mode and it moved nowhere. I moved it to the kitchen with ceramic tile and it only performed slightly better. Even on "run" mode it wouldn't track straight and slipped constantly.2. Most of the sensors only work if you actually touch them. It will hit somthing before it "avoids" it.3. It says it responds to sound, but I had to clap as hard as I could to get it to react to anything. Snaping my fingers produced no response.Basically it does not work as advertised, which is the biggest downer. You expect a lot from this toy because they advertise it will do a variety of things. Be prepared for disapointment, I'm going to return this toy.	negative
1	Great way to Move to new beginings	This is a must have. The only problem I had was that the loss of one of the main characters was unnecessary. It didn't add to the story line and in fact was a distraction. Somehow that character should be brought back.Also... when is Luke going to find out that R2 and C3PO belonged to his parents? That's a loop that should also be closed.	positive
0	Lousy Merchandise	Never cycled despite the claims of the manual. Even when set at the highest temp, still ran continuously (sigh). So kept it at a fixed 60 F and it ran for about 14 months, and then stopped working. Out of warranty, no service offered, no parts available, out of luck and out $200. Very disappointing and so not green. One star is being generous.	negative
1	Laugh Yourself Silly	All I can say is I watch this movie often and never fail to fall off my chair laughing. It is so damn funny. . . . . .	positive
1	THE REVENGE OF SCOURGE	All I can say is that I hate Scourge, oh and the rest of Bloodclan!!! I hope Firestar can drive him out, but if he fails everythimg will be lost.	positive

1	The best "American Idol" Compilation CD Yet.	You better watch out lol Santa Claus is coming to town. This album is great, I'm listening to this cd like, all the time lol. My favorite is Kelly Clarkson's "My Grown-Up Christmas List". Reading the reviews here made me believe that I would skip most of the songs but it's not the case, if you like American Idol this cd is a must have!	positive
0	Esoteric Subject	Very short read, but very challenging and specialized vocabulary. Interesting for anyone with a monastic curiosity. Informative about Orders of Catholic clergy.	negative
1	High School Musical 2 (Extended Edition)	I bought this movie for my grand-daughter but the whole family enjoyed it. Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens made this movie just like they did in the 1st one. Their romance is very touching. The music and dancing is fantastic. All the actors and actresses played great roles.	positive
0	Go with the Diaper Champ!!!	I bought this as an extra to my diaper champ because I will soon have 2 in diapers and I don't want to empty the trash more than once (twice tops) during each week. I figured the Genie would have no smell, so I could put poopie diapers in it and wet ones in the Champ. Stick with the Champ. No odor inbetween changes and less odor when taking trash out. These are the reasons I rated this product so poorly...1. I had to read the directions to use it and I have to explain it to other people who use my nursery.2. It stinks every time I put a diaper in. The Champ only stinks when you change it (I always wrap my diapers tight!!)3. It takes 2 hands. I can put one hand on my baby and use the other one to toss the diaper with the Champ.4. I have to use their expensive refills (I bought a box of kitchen bags with 4 rolls in it at Ralphs for 4 or 5 bucks and I'm only on the second roll - My daughter is 12 months old!	negative
0	Movie was great, method of delivery not so much	The resolution was not very good and the picture only took up a small fraction of the screen. I would have used Netflix if it was available on its site.	negative
0	Very Poor Character Development	I was unable to continue reading this book although I was half finished! I like the supposed premise of the book: a discussion of various Austen books while reading about the book club member's past and present lives. However, the characters were very undeveloped-- After reading 100+ pages, I could not get a firm grasp on Prudie, Jocelyn, Allegra, etc---they all sort of ran together. Only Grigg stood out because he was the only male character. How did this book ever get published? I would not recommend this book to anyone--In my 40+years of reading, this is only the second book that I was unable to finish--I generally persevere through average to below average books, however, this book was torture--I gave up!!	negative
1	I Gotta Go is GREAT!	I saw these I Gotta Go potty training reviews and had to go buy one for my son. I LOVE this DVD! The concept is great. I never thought children (and parents!) could have fun while potty training. There is no stress for my son or us.He does not want to wear diapers anymore. The songs are so cute, we all sing them.I am glad we bought the DVD, the tape would have been worn out by now! I recommend it to anyone I know who is potty training their children!	positive
1	From the Author	This excellent DVD shows clearly and precisely how to coach the fundamentals of goalkeeping, breaking down in detail the individual skills, positioning, different kinds of saves, interceptions, throws and kicks.Whether it be the position of the hands or how to dive, this DVD will give you the teaching points you need to give your keepers the correct techniques.	positive
1	GOOD CAM	Hey Guys this is a nice cam to use.I like this cam its clear to use the clarity of cam is excellent	positive
1	Product good, seller bad	The product is ok....not as great a sound as they let on but passable.The seller, which stated the product was Available, didn't bother to ship it for over a month. It was supposed to have been a Christmas present and although it was ordered Dec. 11, leaving more than enough time for a on-time delivery, they just didn't care and didn't bother until it was much too late.I would buy this recorder again, but not from this seller.	positive
0	Um.. . . really?	The Catholic Church is built on traditions that take us through a re-tracing of Christ's life -- the liturgical year. Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel, I suggest the author take a fresh and unbiased look at the original source -- the Roman Catholic Church.	negative
1	Review of Dennis Sandole's Guitar Lore	This book is fantastic. It covers many guitar lesson topics for all levels from the beginner to the advanced student.	positive
0	bug-b-what	Killed more bugs stepping on them than this crap did. It's a waste of money. Use baking soda instead. Nothing killed like diazinon.	negative
1	5 Stars from the author. Now Labor Pains 2008	Fair warning. This book has been revised every year from 1996 through 2007. Any version that is not current may include federal and state labor codes that have changed. This book is now available in .pdf.The book answers 160 of the most common questions about legalities in the workplace, and answers them in a common sense way. It's a great reference book - if I do say so myself - and is based upon 40 years' experience in personnel/HR. There's humor, too. One newspaper labeled me "The Dave Barry of Human Resources." So, if you liked Dave Barry...	positive
0	disappointed	I purchased this video to watch with my 93 year old boss(he is my patient) and we both thought it was awful. We only laughed a few times. I guess we will have to buy the "best of" tapes where Laurel and Hardy do their short, hopefully funny, skits.Any recommendations from anyone?	negative
1	Nice Pitcher	It holds a lot of water and I don't have to keep filling it.I do love the fact that you don't have to take the hole pitcher out to serve the water since it has the dispenser.The only bad thing is that when you add water it takes a while to drip down and you have to wait a long time to fill the hold thing.Other than that it is great.	positive
0	I want my 160 minutes back	Horrible movie. Save yourself the agony and do something else for 3 hours.	negative
1	Doo Wop 51	Well, I thought it would be impossable to do it again, but PBS has put out another fine concert. Rhino has adapted it to DVD and it is really great.I watched it on PBS with all the sales pitch between segments but it is really great to watch the whole thing with no commercials and get more songs to boot. I have always been a fan of Hank Ballard and he is great. the same goes for Bill Pickney and the Original Drifters along with Charlie Thomas. Shirley Alston Reeves sings "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow". The segment with all the original Diamonds and Maurice Williams was great as well.Host Jerry Butler does a fabulous job as host.For anyone who likes music of the 50's and early 60's. I reccomend this DVD.	positive
0	Don't waste your time or money	This is definitely not a "feel-good" gay movie.. its a glimpse of a sick and twisted person exploiting a drug addict for his pleasure. Not a movie you walk away from feeling good about seeing it.	negative
1	Great lab book	A great teachers resource, most of the labs require very little set-up a few are a little impractical. All in all, I'd say I got my monies worth.	positive
1	GREAAAAAAAATTTTTTT!	I have been using a lot of ink and your shipment came in time as my supply was getting very low.Thanks for the timely arrangement.	positive
0	New battery behaves like used one	I bought a new battery but it is behaving like a used battery. The battery live does not last more than 2 days when not in use.	negative
1	Something More	ok, i have been waiting since this series started for there to finally be something more between ed and gaia. they are becoming more than friends after a night of ed comforting her. YAY! heather is really starting to get on my good side. so, all i have to say is pick up this book and read it! it's one of her bests!	positive
1	Just Wonderful!	The cd is exactly what is heard when watching the musical. I love to listen to the cd and revisit the musical in my mind. I recently saw the play on broadway. I also have read the book more than once; and watched all of the videos on it. They don't compare to the musical. The music on this cd is just wonderful. If you loved the cd you must see the musical on broadway. You will not regret it.	positive
1	This is a must if u luv Jazz, R&B and Hip-Hop	Can't say enuff 'bout this. I kinda heard alot of songs being samples off this compilations incl. "Riding High" by Faze-O (once sampled by my fav. rap group EPMD), "Mister Magic" by Grover Washington Jr. (R.I.P.) (sampled by the group Soul 4 Real for a rmx of "Candy Rain") Playing Your Game, Baby by Barry White (R.I.P.) (sampled by that hip-hop group Black Moon for "Got Cha Open"), etc. I mean alot of artists sample those songs together everybody from Mary J., Aaries, Common, Will Smith, DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, D'Angelo, among others. I wish they had available anywhere by goin to gemm.com, djangos.com, spun.com or any other used music store to see if this available or not. They pull it up one day on this website. But good compiliation and definitely a must to include along w/ sum ol' school R&B and jazz.	positive
1	Great purchase with lots of storage	I bought this bench last season and it has been perfect for storing scarves, hats, gloves, rain gear, and shoes! Everyone in the family has their own drawer. Our daughter can store 6 pairs of toddler shoes in one basket, and several knit scarves can fit into the drawers. There's a lot of room to hide all the out-of-season items. Assembly was very easy. The bench is very sturdy and the cushion doesn't get discolored easily. I have gotten numerous compliments on it overall.	positive
1	Solid Ergonomic Option	I've used several split keyboards from Microsoft, most recently the wireless natural, but none are as comfortable or efficient as this one. In particular, I find the "wide form" arrangement of insert/delete/home/end superior to the "tall form" (large vertical button for delete) on some newer models.Tactile response isn't as nice as alternatives - keys feel a little sticky, but the returns are quick enough for touch typing. Everything else is pretty much as you would expect.	positive
1	Outstanding Resource	This book is an outstanding resource for anyone from novice to expert, who wants to identify or has an interest in oriental carpets and rugs.	positive
0	Let it go, get over it.	Although there were some very good parts to this book for the most part it was dull, boring, and extremely bitter. The story was, is, and will be one of the best that I have ever read. Ellison must realize, though, that budget constraints MUST dictate what is and is not put on film. There is only so much that could be done at that time and it is not Gene Roddenberry's fault that Harlan Ellison couldn't understand that budgets could not be expanded to the size of the authors ego. If I were saying this to Ellison I would say get over it. What's done is done. James Kirk might be able to change the past but here on earth it can't be done. At least, not yet. Take out the bitterest foreword I have ever read and a few repeats of the screenplay and this book would be rated MUCH higher	negative
1	I'm in love!	Andrea Bocelli is wonderful in this CD. He can make anyone fall in love with his voice and the song selection. A great gift for a loved one...	positive
0	Call me when you write books again	I refuse to read another Terry Goodkind book again until I read reviews that say they are actual BOOKS, not sermons. I'm not sure I ever read books as good as the 1st four in this series. After that, I could scream out loud at every one. But I kept on in the vain hope I could quit hearing about society's evils, and start reading fantasy again. Terry, are you listening to me and a majority of your other reviewers????? WE JUST DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR POLITICAL VIEWS, especially when hit over the head by them. You are one of the best writers out there. Start writing again.	negative
0	Boring, draggy, poorly written, riding on the coat-tails of THE SHIPPING NEWS	This has got to be one of the worst books I have ever read. There are chapters that are absolutely incoherent and have to be skipped over. The story just drags on and on and on. I enjoyed THE SHIPPING NEWS. I was not aware that this author had also written BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN (which I have not read). I found the movie BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN quite annoying and ridiculous.I absolutely do not recommend this book if you are looking for something interesting to read. If you are seeking a pretentious, purposely convoluted read for a literature class, by all means, read this.	negative
0	Very dissapointed mommy 2 be	I was extremely dissapointed with this cover. I bought 2 of the quilted velour version and made the rookie mistake of washing them (even in cold water) before checking to make sure it fit with the contoured changing pad. It is much too small and looks terrible! Don't make the same mistake & buy this cover for that pad. Luckily we got one of the Wendy Bellisimo ones also which were (...)more expensive but fit perfectly!	negative
0	Don't follow this advice	If you truly want to become good with women this book will not help you at all. Being this direct will be a turn off to 99% of women and believe me I tried it. Read a book about being indirect, I suggest Neil Strauss's Rules of the Game.	negative
0	Still as boring as the first.	Spoiler Alert!My bf wanted me to read the series... So I tried... Still nothing happening. Sonea gets picked on repetitively. For a while I thought she was like 13 or 14 since she acts so weak. My mind is shattered to remember that she is about 18 and being picked on by kids younger than her. And really? Just to torture someone, Regin also studies his butt off just to stay in the same grade level as her? Yea... right. They already talked about how hard it was in the first place for Sonea to move up a grade level and Regin just easily does it on top of picking on her throughout the first and part second books, as if he never studied at all. And does Regin's guardian Lord Garrel not get reprimanded for obviously helping Regin frame her for stealing? wth? This story has many holes in it and is ridiculous. I skimmed in order to finish the book because, like the first, it still drags on and is repetitive.	negative
0	A hero and criminal	Wonder how they described woman and man massacred in Naliboki, who, after being regularly robbed of food and property, organised self-defence and were massacred by Soviet partisans, including Bielski group. Or about AK soldiers killed by Bielski partisans because of Soviet orders.	negative
0	Dull after the first listen	This might seem exciting at first, but when it come down to it, there's very little content behind this band's bravado and image. Even the name of the band seems to be shoving their 'coolness' down your throat. And that's just what the music is like, when actually, they're just not that good. This disc is at best dull, and at times it's quite messy and annoying.If you really want to hear a piano trio that pushes out the boundaries of what's possible with that set-up, check out anything by Hiromi. Hiromi's stuff really puts this lame effort in its place.	negative
0	Shippped Cart. that dosn't work	This stinks! I ordered this "Lexmark #32 / #33 Twin Pack ink Cartridges (18C0532)" from Amazon / Ship it Depot Inc. in August and made sure they were the correct numbers when I got them. They did come in a zip lock bag, not the box pictured, but the numbers on the foil packaging are correct. However, today when I tried to install the color #33 cart., the printer tells me that it is the "incorrect cartridge". It looks identical to the one in the printer (that works) but it does not. My guess is this has a different country code on it and it will not work on my Lexmark x7170 in the US. Guess what, the return time has expired so I am now out of luck. If anybody can help, I would appreciate it. Based on this, I cannot recommend ordering any printer cartridges from Amazon.	negative
0	Pulled by the manufacturer?	I bought this toy for my daughter for an early Christmas present and I was severly disappointed in the product. The hair would grow one out of every five times you touched the magic wand to the gem or the gem would light up until you physically turned the product off. We initally thought that the batteries were used up and tried new ones with no discernable change. We returned the product and was informed that some of the major retailers were no longer carrying this product due to it was being deleted out of their system and that we would not be able to get a replacement. My daughter was crushed. I am now trying to find a good replacement for this doll which was a disappointment.	negative
1	progressive melodies and forward -thinking	A compilation of today's finest techno producers incorporated as an intelligent mix with just the right balance of melody and beat. Never switching into total overdrive, this mix from the brilliant Beyer is somewhat removed from his reputation for speed and power live. However, this is definitely no wimp-out and displays Beyer's ability to incorporate both power and melody into a very listenable and enjoyable set. Hopefully, in the not-too-distant-future, he can play San Francisco, a town with a good house-progressive scene, but sadly, starved of serious techno.	positive
0	Cheap but you get what you paid for	The review by Warhawke is spot on and I am 100% in agreement.The wood and the paint are subpar at best and they do not fit together well. It took a great deal of effort to make the top panel in place, and I honestly thought it might have broken while I was trying to piece it together.I was also very disappointed by the paint quality. Immediately you will notice the painted wood feels uncomfortable and gritty and has no gloss or shine whatsoever. I recommend purchasing some polyurethane from home depot for $2 and applying a coat to the frame.Overall considering the price it gets the job done.	negative
0	Fell below my low expectations	I was hoping for a mindless car movie. It's certainly mindless, but it's not even about cars. There's more fighting and shooting than racing. (And it's not a very good fighting and shooting movie.) What driving is shown is less realistic than a Bond film. It looks like they did the Benny Hill trick of speeding up the film. Then after a minute of driving, they get out and talk about cars -- and the dialog must have been written by someone who has never owned a car or read a single word about racing. If you like cars, you'll hate this movie, and if you're not into cars, the ads have probably already convinced you not to buy it.If you want a car movie, I recommend Bullitt. Thirty years later, it's still king.	negative
1	Essential for Chile	This is the best thing going for Chile. Plus, Alvaro is a nice guy. Wish I'd got a hardbound edition, but the paperback is a good value. Informative maps, good plates. No complaints.	positive
1	Fontopia Headphones	Same as before: Best design for an "earbud". All the others are TO BIG. The normal designs do not fit any of the ears in my family (six pairs of them) and the Fontopia style with the silicon covers are perfect (using the correct cover). They stay in place and do not hurt the ear canal. All other manufacturers should take note and learn that not all ears are elephant sized and without nerve endings! The cost is a bit much since they only have a short warrenty (should be lifetime at the price), as always, you have to pay for comfort.	positive
0	Doesn't work well with certain carseats	When my son was in a convertible car seat which was tilted back slightly and had head/side wings, this pillow worked well. It was propped well enough to support my son's head when he took a nap. But when we had to switch him to a straight-back booster seat that had shallow head wings, this pillow was not usable at all.	negative
1	Kipor KGE3000TI	We haven't put very many hours of this generator yet, but so far it is doing fine. It is easy to start and runs steadily. I could wish it was a little quieter, but it isn't too bad. So far I am satisfied.Ron	positive
1	Favorite Yoga Tape	I LOVE THIS YOGA TAPE. I was the first yoga tape I ever used and is still my favorite, nothing I have found has measured up to this tape. While it does take a few times to get the movements down and some of the positions are harder it gives you something to work towards and after a few weeks I could just listen to the tape and no longer have to watch. I can't say it enough how much I love this tape, in fact I am trying to find it on DVD because my VCR no longer works and I can not find anything that has lived up to this yoga tape so far.	positive

1	nice addition	Very pleasing book with good quality illustrations of the most important works of art and architecture. A nice addition to anyone's library.	positive
0	NICE LOOKING NON-FUNCTIONAL	The hat is sprayed with a lacquer like substance which makes the hat very stiff and the woven material very vulnerable to cracking when handled. An important aspect of any Panama type hat is sun protection and air circulation. The shaping lacquer spray that the hat is covered in impedes and stops air circulation; you might as well wear a felt fedora. I have owned Panama's in the past and all were soft and able to breathe helping to keep your head cool. While the hat may look cool on, you don't look cool when sweat is dripping down your face and neck. This hat does come nicely shipped in a reusable hat box. It's unfortunate that the hat box is more utile than the supposed Panama hat inside.	negative
0	Believe me: You don't need this!	All information you need is already there, in MSDN. It's not worth to have all those pages printed.

0	Scratchy sheets	These are tightly woven and heavier than the other 400 count sheets I have. They also come out wrinkled and it doesn't seem to matter how you wash and dry them. I can deal with them being heavier because they do keep you warmer but the wrinkles are horrible. If you put the sheets on as soon as they are dry most of the bad wrinkles smooth out fairly well but the pillowcases are different and are a wrinkly mess. I will not order this brand again.	negative
0	Overrated Nonsense	This "comedy" movie is SOOOO Overrated! It's not even funny. At All! Just plain stupid. How this movie ever got the positive reviews like it did,is beyond me. Robert De Niro is a great actor...but what is he doing in a piece of sh*t unfunny film like this??? I'd much rather watch him in Cape Fear...or Taxi Driver...or Casino...or his VERY Underrated performance in The Fan. Watch those De Niro films instead,and don't waste your time or money with this crap.	negative
0	Poorly Written Tripe!	I am so glad I am not the only one that wanted to call Child Protective Services on True!

Hank is so vapid, I wonder what she ever saw in him. Of course, he is good-looking but come on, you must get out of bed sometime! I wonder what turmoil Mitchard was enduring when she wrote this book. IT is just terrible!! My advice is don't bother.	negative
0	bad lesson	We have many little critter books and we love them. However, I did not like this book at all. I read it last night for my 3 year old and never again I would read this for her. The book teaches them to get mad when they hear no from adults and at the end the character of the book decides to run away from home. What is the writer thinking. Doesn't she know that kids are impressionable and can not tell the difference between real and joke at times. So overall not appropriate at all. I am very disappointed since I love her other books.	negative

1	Better than I thought	Even if you do not like the Doors very much, this is kind of a well-done documentary on a historically important band. I mainly though they were a bunch of hippies (which they are if you consider this DVD) but overall here the format chosen makes one forget that and does carry over some of the excitement they seemed to generate at oen time. While certainly they are in some ways over-rated as a band, they had some interesting sides, mainly in thier somewhat over-exposed frontman. The comments by Johnny Depp are quite nice and sober.	positive
0	Comfortable, Yes, but poor fidelity and lousy bass.	Being new to the MP3 world the earbuds that came with our Zen Nano units are our benchmark. We think they are pretty good reproducing our music but they are just a little big for comfort.The improvement in comfort of these JVC buds is not worth the trade off in sound the quality of the original Zen buds.For example the bass line and harmonica riffs are almost non existant in Waylon Jennings music. Not good.They are not as efficient either, the volume level needs to be boosted much, much higher than with the Zen buds.We will send them back.	negative
1	I love it	I love the show.. I like to watch it alone late at night, so it puts a little fear in my heart. There was nothing wrong with my copy. Another great show by the Discovery Channel.	positive
0	This movie remined me of a commercial	Elzabeth was a compressed, and overly dramtic movei that lacked everything but attractive stars. The performance by Cate Blanchett would have been spectacular if she would have had any decent dialogue. The direction was horrible. How many times does the audiece want to see Elizabeth shot through a haze, or through a window shaped like a cross. This movie was worse than The Romeo and Juliet that came out with Claire Dnaes,	negative
1	good	The kit was alright. All of the things were included: the oil (except it was half empty), the hammer, rice paper, two pegs, and the powder ballThe box was splintered, but it was not that bad. It also arrived a couple days late, but that is not anything to be upset about.	positive
1	Very Pleased	I love my Palm! It has helped me organize my life! This seller was very prompt in mailing it to me and it was exactly what I paid for. No complaints!	positive
0	Why?	I have tried to pick up this book twice and tried reading it sincerely but I couldn't go past chapter 2.I couldn't understand Tilo's worlds (more of a fantasy) and I felt very bored very quickly, which is usually a big sign for me to get rid of the book in my hand and find a better replacement.Now I have even viewed the trailer of the film made on this movie, acted by Aishwarya Rai...I couldn't bear to watch it!I'm sorry Ms. Chitra, this one didn't digest too well. Better luck next time, hun!	negative
1	Great Experience	This is much much more interesting than the average text book. I think this a book I'd like to keep around. There is something to be said about the clarity of hindsight and this text seems to have that. It also seems (and I do stress seems) to be a very balanced view of the history of the 'recent' past. I'm actually enjoying my assigned readings for a change	positive
0	NOT UP TO STANDARDS	I usually like to listen to Dave Koz and have seen him live in concert 3 times. I didn't care for the music on this CD at all. I have 4 other CDs by Dave Koz and they are great. This one really falls down.	negative

THE FUTURE OF THE GUITAR IS SECURE

If a teenager can produce heavy rocking guitar blues of this quality, there is no need to worry. This is blues guitar at it's best. If this came from a seasoned player with a long trackrecord, you'd hail it as one of his best. This player is barely into his teens and created this amazing blues cd. The playing is off the charts and his version of LITTLE WINGS is the best I've ever heard. I'm sure ERIC will figure heavily in the future of electric guitar. He already has an amazing phrase book and infuses everything he plays with his own imprint.If you have any kind of interest in the electric guitar, you have to hear this !!!!!

strangely compelling

Barry Hannah is the most successful graduate of the English Department at Mississippi College, however, you will be hard-pressed to find his name mentioned there today. The main reason is this book. This book is largely an autobiography of Hannah, and who knows how much of it is true? The college in the book is Mississippi College, and Hannah's criticisms are honest and embellishing, as are the other observations that he makes in this journey of a book. Geronimo Rex is strangely compelling, and Hannah pulled me right into his head as he tells this story of growing up in the world. Good book, and a must read for anyone from Mississippi College.

Great cookbook and personal essays of Korean life

I'm part of a military family currently living in South Korea. I recently bought this cookbook on base after my husband and I grew to love Korean food.We had dinner at a local Korean restaurant and ate clams with a delicious sauce as one of the many side dishes. I asked one of my Korean friends for the recipe and she ended up making me some because she said it was hard to make. What sold me on this cookbook is that it had the recipe for that very sauce on page four, Seasoned Soy Sauce. It is very good on dumplings and steamed rice. We also love bulgogi or "fire meat" and the cookbook offered that recipe as well.Surprisingly, Eating Korean is not only a great resouce for Korean recipes, but also and enjoyable read. The author, Cecilia Hae-Jin Lee's writing style is warm and colorful. Her personal essays paint fun and interesting glimpses of her childhood in South Korea. I highly recommend it!

First, it took quite a while for my glasses to arrive. Like the other reviewer, I had trouble with breakage: one of the two glasses was broken on the stem.

My fiance and I will be using these to toast our wedding next year, and they're just beautiful for such an occcasion.

Totally One-Sided.

The most mean-spirited and one-sided biography I have ever read. The author seems to hate both Kurt Cobain and the city of Seattle, which he trashes every chance he gets. Books like this are a complete waste of time and make you feel "burned" for having read it. Ugh.

Brilliant on so many levels

Every episode of this new Sherlock is well done and great entertainment. I think I have seen or read almost all of the Sherlock movies/tv/books. If you are a fan like I am, you will love the clever rework of the original Holmes stories -- half the fun is noticing the modern interpretation of the classic characterizations and plots. While the actor portraying Sherlock is brilliant, my favorite parts have to be the portrayal of Watson and Mrs. Hudson. Both characters are thoroughly modern characters, but so much more like what I envisioned them to be like from the original stories. the only complaint is simply not more episodes fast enough!

Wow, this has all the green stuff!!

I have been using Emerald Balance which has Stevia added as a sweetener. It was great if you were making a smoothie but much too sweet if mixed with juices. I like this Green Vibrance because I can sweeten it if I want. It doesn't end up too sweet when mixed in a smoothie with a sweet fruit like a banana.I am not sure why the directions says "Best taken 30-45 minutes after eating." This is a product that seems to be taken in the a.m. mixed with juice or in a smoothie. Actually it would to be good to drink BEFORE eating as an appetite suppressant. Could it upset your stomach? Otherwise, this has ALL the green stuff, and then some you could ever want.

solid 4 out of 5

I read this book in one day. Not necessarily because it was a "can't put it down page-turner", but more because I had a Sunday with nothing else to do. I am always a fan of well-researched work, and Gruen has definitely done her work here. I was somewhat disappointed in the lack of details in character development and/or setting, but that's just a personal preference. I have read some other reviews that say the book was drawn out and too lengthy, but I disagree. I feel that it moved rather well and flowed. My biggest problem with the book was the last chapter. It seemed to be a bit too fanciful and didn't really match the tone of the rest of the book. Still definitely worth reading though.

I thought that this would be a good way to get into shape, but I couldn't be more wrong. It is very slow paced, and when you are trying to follow along, they switch moves before telling you what they're doing, so you can't really follow. I would not recommend this tape to anyone.

Great Sound

Although there was some confusion at first on this item being back ordered, when speakers were received my son was very pleased. He said the speakers sounded just as good on low volume as on high. The quality was awesome. As a college student the quality (and amplification)of the speakers is key. Also the compatibility of the speakers with computer, iPod, etc was a big plus for versatility. The people at Computer Brain were very helpful.

BEWARE, THIS FILTER POLLUTES WATER

I bought set of 3 filters from Amazon about 2 month ago and immediately installed one filter into my fridge. After a few days of usage my wife pointed my attention that water coming out the fridge contains tiny, almost invisible flakes. I think it some sort of internal filtering staff coming out of the filter. I tried to use another filter from the set with the same result - flakes. Just think for a second those flakes are actually some sort of chemically active reagents and we have to drink that water!!!

Fantastic

I find it interesting that all of the one star reviews comment on the series straying from what takes place in the books. If people look at some of the comments Jim Butcher has written about the show they would see that it is not meant to line up perfectly that the show is an alternate universe (for lack of a better word) than that of the book.Although I really would have liked to see Dresden get around in an awful dilapidated VW Bug and would have liked to see Billy and his crew on the show, the series was none the less fantastic. Bob became one of my favorite characters since it is easier to become attached to something with ghost than a disembodied cloud that lives in a skull on Harry's shelf. Sadly like many worthwhile shows Sci-Fi no longer wishes let the company that produced the movie make another season. The company seems to be willing according to the various petitions going around the net if anyone is interested in signing one of them.

Limited options; otherwise good timer

I was hoping to buy a timer that allowed me to set specific times (you know, like on a clock). This one only has a few settings that have the timer on for one, two, or three hours after sunset. It responds to a photoelectric sensor that registers sunset and sunrise. If you are looking for a timer with these sort of limited settings, then this one is a good example -- it is tough and has lasted through a good deal of wind and rain without any problems.

Very Disapointed

I was actually pretty excited to see how the RoboRaptor would perform after it took me 15-20min. and a screwdriver just to get it out of the box. To my dismay, it was far from satisifying.1. On the carpet it cannont walk, at all. I put it in the fastest walk mode and it moved nowhere. I moved it to the kitchen with ceramic tile and it only performed slightly better. Even on "run" mode it wouldn't track straight and slipped constantly.2. Most of the sensors only work if you actually touch them. It will hit somthing before it "avoids" it.3. It says it responds to sound, but I had to clap as hard as I could to get it to react to anything. Snaping my fingers produced no response.Basically it does not work as advertised, which is the biggest downer. You expect a lot from this toy because they advertise it will do a variety of things. Be prepared for disapointment, I'm going to return this toy.

Great way to Move to new beginings

This is a must have. The only problem I had was that the loss of one of the main characters was unnecessary. It didn't add to the story line and in fact was a distraction. Somehow that character should be brought back.Also... when is Luke going to find out that R2 and C3PO belonged to his parents? That's a loop that should also be closed.

Never cycled despite the claims of the manual. Even when set at the highest temp, still ran continuously (sigh). So kept it at a fixed 60 F and it ran for about 14 months, and then stopped working.

Go with the Diaper Champ!!!

I bought this as an extra to my diaper champ because I will soon have 2 in diapers and I don't want to empty the trash more than once (twice tops) during each week. I figured the Genie would have no smell, so I could put poopie diapers in it and wet ones in the Champ. Stick with the Champ. No odor inbetween changes and less odor when taking trash out. These are the reasons I rated this product so poorly...1. I had to read the directions to use it and I have to explain it to other people who use my nursery.2. It stinks every time I put a diaper in. The Champ only stinks when you change it (I always wrap my diapers tight!!)3. It takes 2 hands. I can put one hand on my baby and use the other one to toss the diaper with the Champ.4. I have to use their expensive refills (I bought a box of kitchen bags with 4 rolls in it at Ralphs for 4 or 5 bucks and I'm only on the second roll - My daughter is 12 months old!

Very Poor Character Development

I was unable to continue reading this book although I was half finished! I like the supposed premise of the book: a discussion of various Austen books while reading about the book club member's past and present lives. However, the characters were very undeveloped-- After reading 100+ pages, I could not get a firm grasp on Prudie, Jocelyn, Allegra, etc---they all sort of ran together. Only Grigg stood out because he was the only male character. How did this book ever get published? I would not recommend this book to anyone--In my 40+years of reading, this is only the second book that I was unable to finish--I generally persevere through average to below average books, however, this book was torture--I gave up!!

5 Stars from the author. Now Labor Pains 2008

Fair warning. This book has been revised every year from 1996 through 2007. Any version that is not current may include federal and state labor codes that have changed. This book is now available in .pdf.The book answers 160 of the most common questions about legalities in the workplace, and answers them in a common sense way. It's a great reference book - if I do say so myself - and is based upon 40 years' experience in personnel/HR. There's humor, too. One newspaper labeled me "The Dave Barry of Human Resources." So, if you liked Dave Barry...

Rhino has adapted it to DVD and it is really great.I watched it on PBS with all the sales pitch between segments but it is really great to watch the whole thing with no commercials and get more songs to boot. I have always been a fan of Hank Ballard and he is great. the same goes for Bill Pickney and the Original Drifters along with Charlie Thomas. Shirley Alston Reeves sings "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow". The segment with all the original Diamonds and Maurice Williams was great as well.Host Jerry Butler does a fabulous job as host.For anyone who likes music of the 50's and early 60's. I reccomend this DVD.

This is a must if u luv Jazz, R&B and Hip-Hop

Can't say enuff 'bout this. I kinda heard alot of songs being samples off this compilations incl. "Riding High" by Faze-O (once sampled by my fav. rap group EPMD), "Mister Magic" by Grover Washington Jr. (R.I.P.) (sampled by the group Soul 4 Real for a rmx of "Candy Rain") Playing Your Game, Baby by Barry White (R.I.P.) (sampled by that hip-hop group Black Moon for "Got Cha Open"), etc. I mean alot of artists sample those songs together everybody from Mary J., Aaries, Common, Will Smith, DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, D'Angelo, among others. I wish they had available anywhere by goin to gemm.com, djangos.com, spun.com or any other used music store to see if this available or not. They pull it up one day on this website. But good compiliation and definitely a must to include along w/ sum ol' school R&B and jazz.

Great purchase with lots of storage

I bought this bench last season and it has been perfect for storing scarves, hats, gloves, rain gear, and shoes! Everyone in the family has their own drawer. Our daughter can store 6 pairs of toddler shoes in one basket, and several knit scarves can fit into the drawers. There's a lot of room to hide all the out-of-season items. Assembly was very easy. The bench is very sturdy and the cushion doesn't get discolored easily. I have gotten numerous compliments on it overall.

Solid Ergonomic Option

I've used several split keyboards from Microsoft, most recently the wireless natural, but none are as comfortable or efficient as this one. In particular, I find the "wide form" arrangement of insert/delete/home/end superior to the "tall form" (large vertical button for delete) on some newer models.Tactile response isn't as nice as alternatives - keys feel a little sticky, but the returns are quick enough for touch typing. Everything else is pretty much as you would expect.

Let it go, get over it.

Although there were some very good parts to this book for the most part it was dull, boring, and extremely bitter. The story was, is, and will be one of the best that I have ever read. Ellison must realize, though, that budget constraints MUST dictate what is and is not put on film. There is only so much that could be done at that time and it is not Gene Roddenberry's fault that Harlan Ellison couldn't understand that budgets could not be expanded to the size of the authors ego. If I were saying this to Ellison I would say get over it. What's done is done. James Kirk might be able to change the past but here on earth it can't be done. At least, not yet. Take out the bitterest foreword I have ever read and a few repeats of the screenplay and this book would be rated MUCH higher

Call me when you write books again

I refuse to read another Terry Goodkind book again until I read reviews that say they are actual BOOKS, not sermons. I'm not sure I ever read books as good as the 1st four in this series. After that, I could scream out loud at every one. But I kept on in the vain hope I could quit hearing about society's evils, and start reading fantasy again. Terry, are you listening to me and a majority of your other reviewers????? WE JUST DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR POLITICAL VIEWS, especially when hit over the head by them. You are one of the best writers out there. Start writing again.

Boring, draggy, poorly written, riding on the coat-tails of THE SHIPPING NEWS

This has got to be one of the worst books I have ever read. There are chapters that are absolutely incoherent and have to be skipped over. The story just drags on and on and on. I enjoyed THE SHIPPING NEWS. I was not aware that this author had also written BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN (which I have not read). I found the movie BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN quite annoying and ridiculous.I absolutely do not recommend this book if you are looking for something interesting to read. If you are seeking a pretentious, purposely convoluted read for a literature class, by all means, read this.

Very dissapointed mommy 2 be

I was extremely dissapointed with this cover. I bought 2 of the quilted velour version and made the rookie mistake of washing them (even in cold water) before checking to make sure it fit with the contoured changing pad. It is much too small and looks terrible! Don't make the same mistake & buy this cover for that pad. Luckily we got one of the Wendy Bellisimo ones also which were (...)more expensive but fit perfectly!

Don't follow this advice

If you truly want to become good with women this book will not help you at all. Being this direct will be a turn off to 99% of women and believe me I tried it. Read a book about being indirect, I suggest Neil Strauss's Rules of the Game.

Still as boring as the first.

Spoiler Alert!My bf wanted me to read the series... So I tried... Still nothing happening. Sonea gets picked on repetitively. For a while I thought she was like 13 or 14 since she acts so weak. My mind is shattered to remember that she is about 18 and being picked on by kids younger than her. And really? Just to torture someone, Regin also studies his butt off just to stay in the same grade level as her? Yea... right. They already talked about how hard it was in the first place for Sonea to move up a grade level and Regin just easily does it on top of picking on her throughout the first and part second books, as if he never studied at all. And does Regin's guardian Lord Garrel not get reprimanded for obviously helping Regin frame her for stealing? wth? This story has many holes in it and is ridiculous. I skimmed in order to finish the book because, like the first, it still drags on and is repetitive.

A hero and criminal

Wonder how they described woman and man massacred in Naliboki, who, after being regularly robbed of food and property, organised self-defence and were massacred by Soviet partisans, including Bielski group. Or about AK soldiers killed by Bielski partisans because of Soviet orders.

Dull after the first listen

This might seem exciting at first, but when it come down to it, there's very little content behind this band's bravado and image. Even the name of the band seems to be shoving their 'coolness' down your throat. And that's just what the music is like, when actually, they're just not that good. This disc is at best dull, and at times it's quite messy and annoying.If you really want to hear a piano trio that pushes out the boundaries of what's possible with that set-up, check out anything by Hiromi. Hiromi's stuff really puts this lame effort in its place.

Shippped Cart. that dosn't work

This stinks! I ordered this "Lexmark #32 / #33 Twin Pack ink Cartridges (18C0532)" from Amazon / Ship it Depot Inc. in August and made sure they were the correct numbers when I got them. They did come in a zip lock bag, not the box pictured, but the numbers on the foil packaging are correct. However, today when I tried to install the color #33 cart., the printer tells me that it is the "incorrect cartridge". It looks identical to the one in the printer (that works) but it does not. My guess is this has a different country code on it and it will not work on my Lexmark x7170 in the US. Guess what, the return time has expired so I am now out of luck. If anybody can help, I would appreciate it. Based on this, I cannot recommend ordering any printer cartridges from Amazon.

Pulled by the manufacturer?

I bought this toy for my daughter for an early Christmas present and I was severly disappointed in the product. The hair would grow one out of every five times you touched the magic wand to the gem or the gem would light up until you physically turned the product off. We initally thought that the batteries were used up and tried new ones with no discernable change. We returned the product and was informed that some of the major retailers were no longer carrying this product due to it was being deleted out of their system and that we would not be able to get a replacement. My daughter was crushed. I am now trying to find a good replacement for this doll which was a disappointment.

progressive melodies and forward -thinking

A compilation of today's finest techno producers incorporated as an intelligent mix with just the right balance of melody and beat. Never switching into total overdrive, this mix from the brilliant Beyer is somewhat removed from his reputation for speed and power live. However, this is definitely no wimp-out and displays Beyer's ability to incorporate both power and melody into a very listenable and enjoyable set. Hopefully, in the not-too-distant-future, he can play San Francisco, a town with a good house-progressive scene, but sadly, starved of serious techno.

Cheap but you get what you paid for

The review by Warhawke is spot on and I am 100% in agreement.The wood and the paint are subpar at best and they do not fit together well. It took a great deal of effort to make the top panel in place, and I honestly thought it might have broken while I was trying to piece it together.I was also very disappointed by the paint quality. Immediately you will notice the painted wood feels uncomfortable and gritty and has no gloss or shine whatsoever. I recommend purchasing some polyurethane from home depot for $2 and applying a coat to the frame.Overall considering the price it gets the job done.

Fell below my low expectations

I was hoping for a mindless car movie. It's certainly mindless, but it's not even about cars. There's more fighting and shooting than racing. (And it's not a very good fighting and shooting movie.) What driving is shown is less realistic than a Bond film. It looks like they did the Benny Hill trick of speeding up the film. Then after a minute of driving, they get out and talk about cars -- and the dialog must have been written by someone who has never owned a car or read a single word about racing. If you like cars, you'll hate this movie, and if you're not into cars, the ads have probably already convinced you not to buy it.If you want a car movie, I recommend Bullitt. Thirty years later, it's still king.

Fontopia Headphones

Same as before: Best design for an "earbud". All the others are TO BIG. The normal designs do not fit any of the ears in my family (six pairs of them) and the Fontopia style with the silicon covers are perfect (using the correct cover). They stay in place and do not hurt the ear canal. All other manufacturers should take note and learn that not all ears are elephant sized and without nerve endings! The cost is a bit much since they only have a short warrenty (should be lifetime at the price), as always, you have to pay for comfort.

Doesn't work well with certain carseats

When my son was in a convertible car seat which was tilted back slightly and had head/side wings, this pillow worked well. It was propped well enough to support my son's head when he took a nap. But when we had to switch him to a straight-back booster seat that had shallow head wings, this pillow was not usable at all.

Favorite Yoga Tape

I LOVE THIS YOGA TAPE. I was the first yoga tape I ever used and is still my favorite, nothing I have found has measured up to this tape. While it does take a few times to get the movements down and some of the positions are harder it gives you something to work towards and after a few weeks I could just listen to the tape and no longer have to watch. I can't say it enough how much I love this tape, in fact I am trying to find it on DVD because my VCR no longer works and I can not find anything that has lived up to this yoga tape so far.

NICE LOOKING NON-FUNCTIONAL

The hat is sprayed with a lacquer like substance which makes the hat very stiff and the woven material very vulnerable to cracking when handled. An important aspect of any Panama type hat is sun protection and air circulation. The shaping lacquer spray that the hat is covered in impedes and stops air circulation; you might as well wear a felt fedora. I have owned Panama's in the past and all were soft and able to breathe helping to keep your head cool. While the hat may look cool on, you don't look cool when sweat is dripping down your face and neck. This hat does come nicely shipped in a reusable hat box. It's unfortunate that the hat box is more utile than the supposed Panama hat inside.

Scratchy sheets

These are tightly woven and heavier than the other 400 count sheets I have. They also come out wrinkled and it doesn't seem to matter how you wash and dry them. I can deal with them being heavier because they do keep you warmer but the wrinkles are horrible. If you put the sheets on as soon as they are dry most of the bad wrinkles smooth out fairly well but the pillowcases are different and are a wrinkly mess. I will not order this brand again.

Overrated Nonsense

This "comedy" movie is SOOOO Overrated! It's not even funny. At All! Just plain stupid. How this movie ever got the positive reviews like it did,is beyond me. Robert De Niro is a great actor...but what is he doing in a piece of sh*t unfunny film like this??? I'd much rather watch him in Cape Fear...or Taxi Driver...or Casino...or his VERY Underrated performance in The Fan. Watch those De Niro films instead,and don't waste your time or money with this crap.

Poorly Written Tripe!

I am so glad I am not the only one that wanted to call Child Protective Services on True! I really tried to read this book but found it more and more difficult as Trues' character is revealed! She is so uncaring about her sons' safety and easily lets others make decisions for her. Hank is so vapid, I wonder what she ever saw in him. Of course, he is good-looking but come on, you must get out of bed sometime! I wonder what turmoil Mitchard was enduring when she wrote this book. IT is just terrible!! My advice is don't bother.

bad lesson

We have many little critter books and we love them. However, I did not like this book at all. I read it last night for my 3 year old and never again I would read this for her. The book teaches them to get mad when they hear no from adults and at the end the character of the book decides to run away from home. What is the writer thinking. Doesn't she know that kids are impressionable and can not tell the difference between real and joke at times. So overall not appropriate at all. I am very disappointed since I love her other books.

Better than I thought

Even if you do not like the Doors very much, this is kind of a well-done documentary on a historically important band. I mainly though they were a bunch of hippies (which they are if you consider this DVD) but overall here the format chosen makes one forget that and does carry over some of the excitement they seemed to generate at oen time. While certainly they are in some ways over-rated as a band, they had some interesting sides, mainly in thier somewhat over-exposed frontman. The comments by Johnny Depp are quite nice and sober.

Comfortable, Yes, but poor fidelity and lousy bass.

Being new to the MP3 world the earbuds that came with our Zen Nano units are our benchmark. We think they are pretty good reproducing our music but they are just a little big for comfort.The improvement in comfort of these JVC buds is not worth the trade off in sound the quality of the original Zen buds.For example the bass line and harmonica riffs are almost non existant in Waylon Jennings music. Not good.They are not as efficient either, the volume level needs to be boosted much, much higher than with the Zen buds.We will send them back.

This movie remined me of a commercial

Elzabeth was a compressed, and overly dramtic movei that lacked everything but attractive stars. The performance by Cate Blanchett would have been spectacular if she would have had any decent dialogue. The direction was horrible. How many times does the audiece want to see Elizabeth shot through a haze, or through a window shaped like a cross. This movie was worse than The Romeo and Juliet that came out with Claire Dnaes,

This is much much more interesting than the average text book. I think this a book I'd like to keep around.
