1	A positive book about life and computer uploads.	The first book I had ever read by Sawyer, Mindscan, the title, says it all.The science of scanning and uploading a mind into a computer is discoveredbut not perfected. The book deals with the concept of syntheticintelligences running through computer systems, and a murderer on theloose. Won't give any more away, but it's a very good offering by thisCanadian Science Fiction writer.	positive
0	Lasted a couple of uses	This is not a quality product. Ripped after a couple of uses at home. I do not recommend. Material is too hard and thick.	negative
1	The definitive Five Royales CD	It's a shame that Charly R&B is gone and this title is no longer in circulation. If you buy only one Five Royales CD, this is the one to get! Every track is pure perfection! Johnny Tanner's vocals, Lowman Paulings guitar and extremely under-rated music & lyrics, and a band that still sounds as fresh today as when they recorded these tracks a half century ago. Called the 'Greatest R&B Vocal Group of All-Time', I'd have to say along side Clyde McPhatter & the Drifters, the 2 bands had no comparable peers!	positive
1	Great toddler toy..........one year old's favorite	My grandaughter received this toy at her first birthday party and it was an instant hit with her. It is very well made and durable. Her little hands can squeeze each animal to make the sounds, and she loves ducks, which this reenforced...."uck", one of her first words. As a retired early childhood educator, I think this is an excellent value for a young toddler, rich in many language and cognitive development areas: teaching animal sounds, counting, colors, putting in and taking out, open and close, etc. I think it is something that would interest a young toddler for a long time. It's also very soft and would be a nice safe toy for car rides. I was happy to find this on Amazon, after seeing hers so I could purchase one as a gift.	positive
0	This water bottle LEAKS!!	I have huge water stains on my car seat where this water bottle has toppled over while driving with the water seeping/leaking out. In addition, the top can be somewhat difficult to twist open, it does not keep liquid cold for very long and there is has been no elimination of condensation. I would not recommend this item except for the fact that some of the proceeds go to cancer research.	negative
1	Fascinating	This book was an eye-opener for me. It discusses the strengths and weaknesses of networks and the Internet; what to look out for; how to protect yourself; what makes the systems tick. I agree with another reviewer who mentioned that it was hard to put the book down. Aside from the author's own writings, there are hundreds of additional references which can be used to research hacking and defending networks on the Internet. This book is invaluable for system administrators.	positive
0	these suck	these hacky sacks are very cheaply made and are filled with foam instead of beans. while playing with them all the foam comes out of them.	negative
1	Twilight Samurai	The thing I really like about these foreign films is their simplicity. There are no expensive props, the main reason for watching this film is the story. This is not a martial arts flick, although it does have a few fight scenes.The main character in this film was very humble but one of the toughest of warriors. He was poor, from a lower caste and struggling to feed his two daughters and ailing mother. It was a very simple story but still profound. It's natural to be drawn to the main character and side with him as all he wants to do is live a simple life and take care of his family. But as a member of a warrior clan, he also has another duty. He reluctantly accepts one final assignment which is the toughest of life.	positive
0	Disappointed	I didn't find the music relaxing or energizing. I was too distracted by the fact that it reminded me of bad early 80s music. But on the plus side, it made me want to put on a shiny leotard and leg warmers.	negative
0	Not for me!	I started out using the Nature's Way Reishi Mushroom and decided since I take 6 per day that I would try to get a cheaper brand that had a larger quantity. Problems started right away though, my skin started breaking out within the first 3-4 days of switching to this brand, and I felt pretty nauseous. I gave it a month on these and now I am back to the Nature's Way. Maybe it was the blend of mushrooms in this one that made me feel ill, but it definitely was a poor experience compared to the others that I started with. Would definitely recommend Nature's Way with 10% Polysaccharides. They have helped my skin, hair, and joints to feel better. I am 39 years old with early arthritis symptoms and I also have severe adult onset acne. The acne is almost gone since I've been taking Reishi for 2 months now. and my general well-being has improved greatly.	negative
1	Cute, catchy and great for tiring out energetic little ones	I checked this video out of the library for my six year step-son. He absolutely loved it and I got into it myself. He is really interested in being involved in my workouts and this was a neat way to involve him with risking major injuries. So we did it together and like the previous reviewer , the songs will linger in your head, but I have had worse. My only complaint was with the structure of the video. I just wish it were more structured. It bounced around to much for my taste. But who cares what I think anyway! My step son loved it enough that I am buying it.	positive
0	Product is barely edible & packages do not include the amount advertised.	The quantity information on this product is inaccurate. The ad says each bag is 1.5 ounces, (even 1.75 ounces per bag, if you read further on the description), but it has actually been downsized to 1.2 ounces.For the case of 12 that I bought I received a full 3.6 ounces less than was advertised. Customers have a right to know how much product they are getting when they order. Although I have informed them of this error they still have not changed the promotion to read the correct 1.2oz. Buyer beware.Edit: I didn't realize while I was complaining about the downsizing that they also changed the formula. The product is less crunchy, almost stale, and far more crumbly than before. I am removing my subscription to this product.	negative
1	The series that keeps you coming back for more!	We've been watching this from Season One to Season Seven. It's truly awesome. Every season just gets better. You'll love all seven seasons from beginning to end. Don't miss any of them.	positive
0	Unrealistic and an insult to submarine professionals	Dumb. Highly unlikely and highly insulting. It's ignorant movies like this that give the U.S. Navy a bad name. At least the folks who made the movie know more about submarines than the guy who wrote the novel (Richard Hendrick). Portrays relationship between Navy personnel as based on fear, tyranny, and intimidation. I've been a submariner, a Navy enlisted sailor, and a Navy Officer and was thoroughly insulted by the movie's portrayal of all. And what's up with this submarine that looks like a dungeon inside? Submarines are quite well lighted (who wouldn't go insane living in a dark hole for two months?). I sleep well knowing that this movie is so far fetched.... if this movie were plausible, we'd have already blown up the world.	negative
0	Beautiful from the outside	It took me quite some time to assemble it. The hinges were crooked, and the lid won't click in place.I read that it holds around 200someting diapers....my eyeballs popped out: who in their right mind would store so many diapers (or only 10)in a trash can and not take it out?? I mean, I would have preferred they focused on other details they left out such easability to maneuver or some nice mat under it, or a support for a sanitizer or some baby wipes, etc. attached to it !I probably did not need it or hoped it will be more to it. It is not more to it.But I like the color and ..and the dignity it carries standing next to my baby's crib.	negative
0	don't get this movie	the previews to this movie was good. so i watched it, and i thought it was a really, really, AWFUL movie. mr. jones and ms. streep are great actors but this was their worst movie. i felt like i was a fly on the wall(spying on my parents (love) life. i kepted thinking somebody please comes by with a fly swatter and smack me with it or brings bug spray and spray my eyes out. if older couples are having marriage trouble this movie would(might) help them. if you are the type who knows that your parents kiss, make out, etc. but get grossed when they do it in front of you, your friends, or in public, don't rent this movie or buy it.	negative
1	Better quality than I expected	I use it for cold therapy only. It is of superior quality, better than any other ice pack I have used before. I'm pleased with the snug fit. It doesn't leave your skin wet, like some other ice packs. Highly recommended.	positive
1	Love my kindle...	I was honestly surprised by how much I ended up loving the kindle. I love the convenience of having tons of books with me without the weight. I also love the size, shape, and overall appearance of the kindle. I purchased mine almost a month ago and decided to send it back and hold out for the newer model beind released in August. I only did this due to the promise of "improved contrast." My only complaint about the kindle 2 was that the text seemed a bit dull, which prompted a 4 star rating instead of 5. I can't wait to receive the new one. I am having withdrawal symptoms from lack of kindle already!	positive
1	#1 Clancy Book	This is the best book written by Clancy, however, Jack Ryan is nowhere in this. There are several references to "the president", and only one time do they actually say "Jack" in this.However, what makes this book the best is that it would be so easy for someone todo something like this. This is definatly Clancy at his best. Clark and Chavez definatly bring it home in this. Its a very long book, but it is a page turner. Great novel for anyone who wants some excellent reading.	positive
0	Stick with the regular Dr. Brown's bottles instead...	Do not buy these bottles! I tried the original, long and slender Dr. Brown bottles, and was so satisfied that I decided to purchase the wide-neck version as well; they seemed more trendy and convenient... more bulk/less height. First of all, they are not convenient at all as they are still very tall, almost as tall the regular shaped 8oz Dr. Brown's, and much more bulkier; making these far less convenient to take with you. Secondly the nipples in this version are different from the original size bottles; Their feeding effect... they are not as adaptable to an infant's mouth as the regular slender-neck Dr. Brown bottles. You will notice the difference in your child's feeding behavior; it will not be smooth feeding time like it is with the traditional shaped.I am 100% satisfied with the original Dr. Brown design, but I sincerely cannot recommend these. Take my advice and don't make the same mistake I did; stick with the slender version bottles.	negative
1	Great little tuner	As soon as I recieved this item, I placed the batteries that came with it inside and plugged it into the gibson. Worked great right out of the box. Easy to use, even for the not so talented. I haven't used the built in mic to tune with yet but will try it soon. If your a beginner and looking for a great tuner this is the one you should get.	positive
1	Another Wonderful Backyardigans Video	This is another wonderful Backyardigans Video. It has 4 shows. My 20 month old LOVES the Backyardigans he has been watching them since he was born. This video has 2 new shows he had never seen and that was wonderful. Plus it had the Amazing Splashinis.	positive
1	Their punkest years.....	........some people get mad of them cuz they're christians or something...and yeah they became quite preppie with the ever passing moment but Fu...Th...Sh..!this album compilates their greatest punk,emo and hardcore moments....yeah tons of songs..and old school rare demos support this nice album....I love NOFX and Rancid and all those bands....but these guys are somehow different from them..........but they're good too.......you should buy some of their other records too....including an ep that they did for Fat Wreck Chords	positive
1	Good price, new product, perfect transaction...	The power cord for my Dell Inspiron 8000 died, so I found this replacement product through Amazon Marketplace. I ordered this item from Sirius Trading. The item arrived within a few days, brand new and in the original packaging. It has worked perfectly since I bought it. I have no complaints and am completely satisfied with this purchase. I'd be happy to buy from Sirius Trading again.	positive
1	Big pleasure	All this photographs are made with big passion and it is a very big pleasure to look at them after all these years.	positive
1	The only book you'll need, do not buy a new car without it!	Mr. Bragg's book is by far the best book available about the new-car buying process. He describes how an uninformed car-buyer is treated, versus how an educated and well-armed buyer is treated by the dealer sales staff, and my experience matched exactly. I bought the book after I started looking for a car, and by following his guidelines I noticed a positive change in how I was treated. By far the best part is the supplemental service he offers- a nominal fee will get you an information packet for the specific car or cars you are interested in. Mr Bragg tracks several industry sources, which he uses to generate his reports: manufacturer quality, sales performance statistics, even typical selling prices are reported. I expect to save nearly $4K on a popular model by applying his tactics!	positive
0	not for everyone	You have to really appreciate loud, intense vocal growls to get into this album. It lacks vocal melodies for the most part, and contains unmemorable guitar riffs and solos that were influenced by old school metal bands such as Metallica. The music is just too obnoxious and annoying for me.	negative
0	Doesn't work with Firefox -- or ANY mac browser!	I second the comments about the loud fan.However, the deal breaker for me (I'm returning the unit I bought) is that the web management interface does not work with Firefox. In fact, it works ONLY with IE on a PC.Given that many other Linksys products work with Firefox, I was pretty surprised.Linksys needs to have a talk with the clue fairy and cut some new firmware.	negative
1	the greatest movie ever made	Im sure that you fell that there can be more then one but you are dead wrong, becuse this flick toatly rules. The soundtrack just rocks. Queen is the best. the flashbacks are just awsome and the shots of the Scotish Highlands where breath taking. Lambert was great as Connor. Conary rules in this movie he is the greatest of all time.	positive
0	A DUMB POLITICAL MADE UP DOC	How can anyone label this very dumb movie as "Great" or "Accurate" when they were not even there. This is another flic where Damon is using his celebrity status to pan America and Bush. When are you left wingers going to move on - especially you DAMON? I and many other vets have lost all respect for this Damon guy because he shows his contempt for this country to put a story like this on the screen because their are always people that will really believe it. Give it a rest. If this war was all about oil why aren't the gas prices down instead of going up? I and many more will never see another Damon movie again.	negative
0	Never used	I bought this chair for my mom, she wanted it so bad. She used it twice, and maybe she is not as driven as most people to work out but she didnt like it or it didnt work.	negative
0	Threads Strip too easy. NOT Well made	Don't buy this CRAP !!! They are the worst garbage I have ever purchased. You would expect this kind of garbage from the dollar store.	negative
1	Love it!!!!!!!!!	My original Garmin 305 is two years old. Last month, I couldn't get it to charge and I was in a panic! So surprised to find an identical replacement at such an awesome price. It turned out nothing was wrong with the wrist unit, but rather the charger.This older model does all the same stuff as the newer, more expensive ones. It is my faithful running companion, allowing me to log thousands of miles that I can download to my computer. Love the maps and all the pace functions. Really easy to use.	positive
1	An Excellent, Worthy Book	The blurb really says it the best..."There are more than 6,000 Chinese medicinals described in the Chinese medical literature, but only 260 of these are typically used in day to day practice. This book describes the clinical use of this core, essential repertoire....In this book you will find the natures, flavors, channel-gatherings, functions, indications, combinations, dosages, and contraindidications of these essential Chinese medicinals."Trade paperback, 271 pp.Bibliography, General Index, Latin Medicinal Index, Pin Yin Medicinal Index, Formula Index.	positive
0	misleading	I was excited to find a book on crafting canoe paddles only to be let down by the lack of information a reader would expect. The author writes of forms, jigs, and tools that he has built for shaping canoe paddles but fails to explain or show how to make these items. This book gives the history of canoe paddles and misses quite a bit of information that is helpful for the build. There is also a lack of clear or detailed pictures and absolutely no color pictures. This book is great for the coffee table but less effective if you want a step by step on the paddle building process. There is also no mention of wrapping the finished paddles with fiberglass as do many paddle makers. (e.g. watch the construction video on whiskeyjack paddles website).	negative
1	Awesome Suspenseful Thriller	"Klute" is a very suspenseful film that keeps you guessing till the very end. Jane Fonda and Donald Sutherland's performaces are both equally fantastic. Pakula's direction is top-notch and adds real intense atmosphere to the relentless suspense. "Klute" is defintely on of those 70s gems!	positive
0	Much less quality armoire than expected	The jewelry armoire arrived very quickly and was packaged great. It was a lighter color (and more red) than shown in advertising pictures. I was surprised how little real wood was in the armoire. The legs, drawer fronts, and lid were wood. Everything else appeared as composite wood or plywood or MDF. What dissapointed me the most were the quality of the drawer sides, bottoms, and back and the support structure of the case. They were composite type wood (or chip core) and not very pleasant to slide in/out. The drawer rough bottom edges made their use unpleasant and hard to slide. I bought this for my wife as a gift. I was disappointed enough with it to go out and buy her another one immediately at my local furniture store. I will get rid of this one.	negative
1	the beginings of hardcore metal	this is hard-core metal taken to the extreme, no melodic vocals here, but some kick ass drumming and guitar work, with some clever lyrics as well. ive seen the drummers new band and they are amaZing, theyre called classic case, u can check them out at classiccase.net. we all know glassjaw made the wrong moves unfortunatly and i never heard thisyearsmodel, but i assume its moslty screaming, so if youre into that, then check them out	positive
0	Don't bother...	I am glad that I didn't pay full price for this book. These are the same ideas that you have seen in every other book on homemade Christmas gifts. Most of these I wouldn't even make as they look cheap. If you want a good book on this subject, try The Spirit of Christmas by Leisure Arts	negative
1	Great concert DVD	Purely looking at this as a concert DVD it's great. Though i wish it would've included some more extras, such as interviews and commentary. Also Tenacious D seems to have excluded their hilarious webisodes for Pick of Destiny from both the DVD for that movie and for this DVD, what gives? especially since they've since taken them down from the movie site.I'm nitpicking though, this is really a must buy if you're a die hard fan. If you aren't then really this isn't the DVD for you. The concert is chock full of references and inside jokes only fans will get.	positive
1	Hilarious	As the human companion of two cats gone bad, I recognized WAAYYYY too many behaviors and expressions in this book. I've given it as a gift to other cat owners who also loved it. Also worth getting: the bad cats calendar. In this house, we're very hard pressed not to peek ahead (and if no one's looking, sometimes I do!).	positive
1	Classic Floyd Cramer	It doesn't get any better if you're a fan, and this CD has all your favorites and one or two you didn't know were going to become favorites.	positive
0	Ripoff	I paid 18 bucks for this book and all it is ,is about 10 pages of a preacher/teacher guy lecturing and the rest is just several pages of occult themed pictures all in drawn black and white.The pictures were cool, but the book was in no way worth what I paid for it.If you truly want it, try to find a decent used copy as cheaply as you can.	negative
1	Fabulous fun!	Recently we purchased this feeder and hung it closer to our porch windows than we had our older feeders. We adjusted it a couple of times, trying to discourage the grackles. This last adjustment did the trick! Even ONE closes the doors. Several small birds can still feed, and a cardinal plus one small bird can enjoy it at the same time. The competitiion between the small birds is so fun to watch. Best feeder we have ever owned.	positive
0	RETURNING!	I ordered a NEW print pack and received a box that is all beat up and it's dated 2001! The die in the ink ribbon is probably all dried up or will dry up quickly once opened!	negative
0	Product will die within a year or so	I have owned two of this company's (iGo) chargers and both have died within about a year. Specifically, the charger will simply stop charging. When plugged in the blue light on the charger will come on and then immediately fade. The company was great about honoring the two-year warranty on the first charger, but the replacement died a year later. Unfortunately their warrant is from the date of the initial purchase, so if the replacement dies and the two years from initial purchase have passed you are out of luck. I don't know about you, but that simply doesn't sit well with me. If you warranty your product for two years, then the clock should start again when the product is replaced.Seriously consider purchasing a universal charger manufactured by a different company.	negative
1	not the best	This disc did not live up to expectations. Live techno music is a relatively new thing, with Kernkraft 400 on the radio and Paul Oakenfold's Resident album. With Underworld, you just dont get the same feeling as you do on those other albums. Still, the playlist is great, with Cups, Pearl's Girl and Born Slippy, but Underworld doesnt sound as good live. Try Beaucoup Fish instead.	positive
1	Hardcover edition of a Must Have Book for Girls	This book is about as perfect as they come for explaining what she needs to know about puberty to a young girl without going into details of "the birds & the bees." The topics are presented clearly without being embarrassing, and the illustrations and style make it more engaging. I would highly recommend this for girls 10-13, but only younger if they are early bloomers. I let my daughter read all but the last section when she was 9.	positive
0	wow	did this kid really have penguin print his book to look like it's one of their old classics?even the book jacket is as superficial as the book in this instance.wow.	negative
1	A MUST HAVE!!	My son LOVES this!! we usually have it on the rain sound. It is really cute to listen to him when it's set to the whales.. he lays there cooing it's like he's talking to them. this one sound is not the best setting for him to sleep by, but during the day it's like his friend!!I couldn't imagine this sheep being much bigger (I guess there also is a home one that is much larger), I think this one is the perfect size for home or travel.I think this is a MUST have!!	positive
0	Terrible book	This is the worst calculus study guide that I have ever attempted to use. This book uses notation that is difficult to understand unless you already know the subject, which makes it useless. This book does nothing to help you understand the subject. I have already taken three semesters of calculus and bought this book to use for review and I couldn't even understand it.	negative
0	Wasted dollars	Video delays are horrendous! There is a disconcerting lack of sync between the audio and video. Similar to a 1970's Japanese over-dub movie. Don't buy it!	negative
0	Durability Problems	I have had two ROOMBAs (A Discovery and Discovery SE) for about five months now. We have three German Shepherds, multiple cats and a large house. Our ROOMBAs are used twice daily on the MAX setting.Although they clean well I've had lots of problems keeping them functional with multiple cliff sensor and brush drive failures despite cleaning them, cleaning the brushes and blowing them out with air after each use. The folks at I Robot have been great about replacing them under warranty but the process is beginning to get tiresome. I can only conclude that long-term durability is, at best, questionable and that maintenance is far greater than that of a "normal" vacuum. The whole equation adds up to time saved having a robot vacuum = zero.	negative
1	Summary	Dakota Taylor is a gay gunslinger in the tradition of Louis L'Amour--except that Dakota's amour is directed at other men. Don't miss Arson! and Rattler!	positive
0	don't waste your money	I knew this book was from ultra conservatives, nontheless, I bought this book out of interest. After reading several chapters in the beginning, I wanted to return this to the bookstore for nothing!This book is full of insults without any clear logic. I am certain she surely hates liberals, but few of them are..well.. making senses. i once read Buchanans "death of the west" which I kinds of liked it although I hated the authors.. but this one ddoesn't even worth the reading, and you will realizs you have wasted your money and time after reading several chapters..	negative
1	Worth the money!	I got this toy box for my sons play room after his first toy box was too full. This one was much bigger and fit everything I needed it to. I was able to put it together in less than 10 minutes. It's really safe and won't fall down on your kids fingers or heads. It's a real nice toy box!	positive
1	smokey-roadside club blues	How enjoyable can it get ......all the razz m tazz & electronic sounds of todays music doesnt hold a candle to the artists who have come up the endurable, hard way.....the orchestrations & vocal nuances cannot be matched...yah' there are some very capable vocalists of today but few of them know how to put together memorable sounds that will last.....you cant go wrong with the sparse sounds of the small groups of instruementals & the vocalists of yesteryear that will endure forever....	positive
0	Not an Energizer!	Did not get an "Energizer" battery! Received a "Jensen" battery (made by Audiovox). Hope it lasts. Will not try to return given other (one star) reviewer's comments.	negative
0	Prayers are few and far between	This book contains very few actual prayers. It gives a history of prayer, why we should pray, and how to create your own. You have to search really hard (difficult to do on a Kindle)to find an actual prayer. Decided to return because it is not "a book of pagan prayer" but rather a book about pagan prayer. I was looking for a simple prayer book to help with daily meditation, not another history book.	negative
1	Review	This is a huge bottle. Great Price and really made the difference with my heart monitor. It cam in on time and works great. Could be happier	positive
0	Chinese trash	The washer hoses were advertised as "made in the USA" when in fact(after I recd them) they were made in china. Look guys-please be honest about your ads. Thanks.	negative
0	Fuel gauge	Equus 2" Fuel Level Gauge.This might be a good item. If i could get it to work. No place have i found what OHMS this gauge covers. Not on the gauge and not on the web site. No, i would not buy again.s i still have this one, i can not return.	negative
1	Excellent!	In perfect condition! Was as good as when I was a kid! A movie even my son loved, and hopefully my future grandchildren will love.	positive
1	Very satisfied with this purchase	I love this illustrated version of The Velveteen Rabbit. It is a classic that everyone will love. I felt that it arrived in a timely manner and exactly as described by the seller.If you want a version that both you and the child/children pin your life will love, buy this version and red it with total delight!	positive
0	Too fragile for the cost	I really like this MP3 player until I accidentally dropped it. The player was in its case when I dropped it a couple of feet getting out of my car. Not much of a drop and I thought it was OK until I tried to raise the volume and it would not go up. The volume would go down, so now I have an MP3 player that works except the volume is at 0. Intel does not warranty its switches and buttons but they will generously (ha, ha) replace my MP3 player for $75. I should spend my money on a cheaper MP3 player that won't be so expensive to replace if it gets dropped again.	negative
1	One of The Best	One of my favourites. I was thoroughly dissapointed by Memnoch and Pandora and this restored my faith in Anne Rice. I have not yet had the pleasure of reading Vittorio but I hope she keeps up the trend with this style of writing.I was not offended by the relationship with Marius bacause, unlike other people, I am apparantly able to differentiate between fiction and reality. If I had any grievances with the book, their names were Sybelle and Benji. I could not find a point to their existence, but Anne usually has her reasons, even if we aren't made aware of them at first. I wholly enoyed this book. More on Bianca please Anne!	positive
0	Go to gamefaqs...DON'T BUY THIS GUIDE!	If you wanted the "ultimate guide" for Grandia...then keep looking...this isn't! The format of the book was disappointing...I wanted something more like David Cassady done in his FF8 guide...but this guide only covers the game without covering the bonus dungeons and secrets. I also thought that this guide was going to include maps for every dungeon, like the ones found in the instruction booklet, but there aren't any. I know thar Grandia is a linear RPG...but please! they can make a good guide...take Final Fantasy Tactics guide for example... So...please...DON'T BUY THIS GUIDE!	negative
1	Cookie Monster	If you want to purchase a tickle me other than Elmo, then Cookie Monster is a good novelty toy for the adult who like novelty toys. I purchased this gift as an extra gift for a family member so she can add to her selection of novelty toes. Cookie Monster is a nice blue color and is quite amuzing. Very fun gag gift!	positive
1	A true gem that stands the test of time...	A couple of years after hearing this record for the first time I still find it fresh, innovative and simply enjoyable. Although not free of imperfections, Furtado's first album is a bold statement by a mainstreem artist who is not afraid to go in her own direction. I instantly got hooked on songs like "On the radio", "Legend", "Party" and the beautiful "Scared of you". And "Turn off the light" is the best song I've ever heard on a pop record - you just can't get enough of it!	positive
1	Long Lasting Battery	I am a photographer and my camera battery life is critical. This battery lasts longer than any other battery I have used.	positive
1	Born in Back of Yards	My grandparents immigrated from Poland and lived this book. I am so glad that the immigrants of that era had this book written about them. Talk about corruption. Its as if big business didn't understand that when people work, they expect to be able to have something more in life, not less.	positive
0	Not a good choice	The Mucha Lucha backpack is small and the zipper is very difficult to operate. The price was good and my son loves it but I don't think it is going to work well for school.	negative
0	Factually Inaccurate	Caveat Emptor: This book is based in large part on interviews conducted by the late New York Post sports columnist Milton Gross, my father. They were used without the permission of his heirs, and were never checked against the audiotapes on which they were based which are in my possession and have been for almost thirty years. But what's worse is that the book is factually innacurate and the author did not even attempt to confirm what he printed. Instead of thanking the person whose work he based his book on, Rosen prints untruths about him. One example: on the last page of the book, Rosen has Milton Gross skipping Molinas' funeral and instead, attempting to cash in on his death.

1	raw and beautiful	When I first heard this disk, I cringed a little bit -- it was SO electric, and I was used to the softer sound of Living with the Law. But I gave it a chance, knowing that Chris Whitley doesn't put out bad music. And what I would have lost, had I never listened to it again! Narcotic Prayer is one of the most plaintive, beautiful songs I've ever heard. Guns and Dolls continues to be on my list of favorite songs of all time. And fans of the acoustic sound will inhale the wonderful New Machine and Days of Obligation, the hidden track. Even if you aren't a fan of the electric sound, you can't help but love the raw anguish oozing from Whitley's voice and guitar-playing on this album. Buy it!	positive

0	A Disappointing Reunion For Sure!	Wow! I bought this CD for a few bucks used and I still feel cheated. I expected so much more from this 1996 reunion (short-lived) CD and got so much less. Tracks 1,3 and 4 have started to grow on me but as another reviewer pointed out, the rest is mostly unlistenable. I don't know if Journey toured to support this album but as I was listening I found myself imagining the lukewarm reactions of concert audiences everywhere as Steve Perry announced "and now we'd like to play something off of our new album" ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz. I recently saw the new Journey in concert with current singer Steve Augeri. It was great. He sings like Steve Perry used to be able to sing in about 1980. My recommendation is to skip "Trial by Fire" and go straight for Journey's 2001 release "Arrival" with the new Steve.	negative
1	2nd time around	My first shredder died because I did not maintain it - they need to be oiled! But it lasted quite well so I bought the same make but with features I thought desirable. The top remains on the frame when the basket is removed - no struggling with an unwieldy power unit. It is quiet. The tiny pieces of paper take up little space and so it is possible to shred many sheets before emptying the unit. It came well packed and was easy to assemble. Rarely jams and when it does reverse fixes the problem.	positive

0	Complete waste of time and money	I will NEVER buy another product from Kidco. The instructions for this adapter are completely useless.

Of course the worthless directions don't clearly mention that. And the instructions for the gate that goes with this adapter are even worse! Unfortunately, I can't return either product and will have to throw both into the trash. Terrible company and terrible product.	negative

1	Incredibly Wonderful Toy!!	We bought this for our 6 year old grandson for Christmas. He is a very inquisitive child that has a big thirst for knowledge, so when we saw Brian the Brain we thought it would be a great idea. When Christmas morning arrived and he opened the toy, he couldn't put it down. This is the most mesmerizing toy I think any of our grandkids have seen. Right away Brian broke the ice with our grandson with his sense of humor and up to date way of speaking so that todays children understand him and feel comfortable with him. Within minutes our grandson was quoting facts to us and trying to get all of us involved.I think anyone that is looking for the perfect educational toy for any child age 5-13 should invest in Brian because you won't be let down.	positive

This camera has a load of great features and is very good overall	positive
1	Pretty good	This was short. And it had big margins! But it was good.Its based on an account of a white woman who is captured and adopted into a Native American tribe. Its written so well I had to keep wondering----the author does say a lot of it is fictional thats not from the account. But you can't tell too much.Its not incredibly detailed or some such. Its not supposed to be.Its a fictional story of a woman and the way she survived when her family was brutally murdered by Indians and taken by those same people. She adopted their ways and was married to two Indian men. Its supposed to be written like she is recounting it. Its not going to be a drama, or a rich unfolding tale of sweeping magnitude. Its short and sweet. Just fine by me.Its a sad tale. But an adventurous one. I later found out my ancestors lived near her; in Genesee. I wonder if they knew of her?	positive
0	Average read - very disappointing ending	I read this book thinking it would be a great story. First of all, Jane's character is just not likeable - especially considering her lack of feelings for her unborn child. She seemed to have no real purpose and was boring. Bee was interesting you could say, but she wasn't any more likeable. What was with the Dad coming into Jane's room and telling her lies? I did not grasp that at all. The only characters I found somewhat interesting were the Dad and Mr. Denzer. This book started off okay for me, but quickly got boring and seemed to have no purpose. The ending was so awful that I just laughed. It would have been nice to know if Jane had ever bonded with her baby, or what she had done with it. Oh well, just my opinion. I think the story had potential, but was just kind of washed out.	negative

The characters and situations were so real you could imagine being there. Some of the situations you never expect to read about in a romance had me laughing out loud and bringing back memories of the same thing happening to me.This was by far my favorite of the Allgood series. If you enjoyed the previous ones you will absolutely love With Open Arms. Two thumbs up to Ms. Louise and I know she will not disappoint us, so I look forward to reading Brax's story in the near future. Buy the book you will not be sorry!	positive
1	Couldn't be happier!	Just received my Invicta 8932 (the smaller quartz version) and I couldn't be happier. It looks very classy and has that quality feel that you find on similar watches that cost thousands of dollars. Save your money, buy one of these and use what's left over on a trip to the Bahamas or Figi and really use it on a dive trip! The bezel is a little loose but I don't mind that because I'd rather have it that way anyway (easier to use). If you want a great looking, classy, cool watch that's not oversized go for it! You won't regret it.	positive

A positive book about life and computer uploads.

The first book I had ever read by Sawyer, Mindscan, the title, says it all.The science of scanning and uploading a mind into a computer is discoveredbut not perfected. The book deals with the concept of syntheticintelligences running through computer systems, and a murderer on theloose. Won't give any more away, but it's a very good offering by thisCanadian Science Fiction writer.

The definitive Five Royales CD

It's a shame that Charly R&B is gone and this title is no longer in circulation. If you buy only one Five Royales CD, this is the one to get! Every track is pure perfection! Johnny Tanner's vocals, Lowman Paulings guitar and extremely under-rated music & lyrics, and a band that still sounds as fresh today as when they recorded these tracks a half century ago. Called the 'Greatest R&B Vocal Group of All-Time', I'd have to say along side Clyde McPhatter & the Drifters, the 2 bands had no comparable peers!

Great toddler toy..........one year old's favorite

My grandaughter received this toy at her first birthday party and it was an instant hit with her. It is very well made and durable. Her little hands can squeeze each animal to make the sounds, and she loves ducks, which this reenforced...."uck", one of her first words. As a retired early childhood educator, I think this is an excellent value for a young toddler, rich in many language and cognitive development areas: teaching animal sounds, counting, colors, putting in and taking out, open and close, etc. I think it is something that would interest a young toddler for a long time. It's also very soft and would be a nice safe toy for car rides. I was happy to find this on Amazon, after seeing hers so I could purchase one as a gift.

This water bottle LEAKS!!

I have huge water stains on my car seat where this water bottle has toppled over while driving with the water seeping/leaking out. In addition, the top can be somewhat difficult to twist open, it does not keep liquid cold for very long and there is has been no elimination of condensation. I would not recommend this item except for the fact that some of the proceeds go to cancer research.

Fascinating

This book was an eye-opener for me. It discusses the strengths and weaknesses of networks and the Internet; what to look out for; how to protect yourself; what makes the systems tick. I agree with another reviewer who mentioned that it was hard to put the book down. Aside from the author's own writings, there are hundreds of additional references which can be used to research hacking and defending networks on the Internet. This book is invaluable for system administrators.

Twilight Samurai

The thing I really like about these foreign films is their simplicity. There are no expensive props, the main reason for watching this film is the story. This is not a martial arts flick, although it does have a few fight scenes.The main character in this film was very humble but one of the toughest of warriors. He was poor, from a lower caste and struggling to feed his two daughters and ailing mother. It was a very simple story but still profound. It's natural to be drawn to the main character and side with him as all he wants to do is live a simple life and take care of his family. But as a member of a warrior clan, he also has another duty. He reluctantly accepts one final assignment which is the toughest of life.

Not for me!

I started out using the Nature's Way Reishi Mushroom and decided since I take 6 per day that I would try to get a cheaper brand that had a larger quantity. Problems started right away though, my skin started breaking out within the first 3-4 days of switching to this brand, and I felt pretty nauseous. I gave it a month on these and now I am back to the Nature's Way. Maybe it was the blend of mushrooms in this one that made me feel ill, but it definitely was a poor experience compared to the others that I started with. Would definitely recommend Nature's Way with 10% Polysaccharides. They have helped my skin, hair, and joints to feel better. I am 39 years old with early arthritis symptoms and I also have severe adult onset acne. The acne is almost gone since I've been taking Reishi for 2 months now. and my general well-being has improved greatly.

Cute, catchy and great for tiring out energetic little ones

I checked this video out of the library for my six year step-son. He absolutely loved it and I got into it myself. He is really interested in being involved in my workouts and this was a neat way to involve him with risking major injuries. So we did it together and like the previous reviewer , the songs will linger in your head, but I have had worse. My only complaint was with the structure of the video. I just wish it were more structured. It bounced around to much for my taste. But who cares what I think anyway! My step son loved it enough that I am buying it.

Product is barely edible & packages do not include the amount advertised.

The quantity information on this product is inaccurate. The ad says each bag is 1.5 ounces, (even 1.75 ounces per bag, if you read further on the description), but it has actually been downsized to 1.2 ounces.For the case of 12 that I bought I received a full 3.6 ounces less than was advertised. Customers have a right to know how much product they are getting when they order. Although I have informed them of this error they still have not changed the promotion to read the correct 1.2oz. Buyer beware.Edit: I didn't realize while I was complaining about the downsizing that they also changed the formula. The product is less crunchy, almost stale, and far more crumbly than before. I am removing my subscription to this product.

Unrealistic and an insult to submarine professionals

Dumb. Highly unlikely and highly insulting. It's ignorant movies like this that give the U.S. Navy a bad name. At least the folks who made the movie know more about submarines than the guy who wrote the novel (Richard Hendrick). Portrays relationship between Navy personnel as based on fear, tyranny, and intimidation. I've been a submariner, a Navy enlisted sailor, and a Navy Officer and was thoroughly insulted by the movie's portrayal of all. And what's up with this submarine that looks like a dungeon inside? Submarines are quite well lighted (who wouldn't go insane living in a dark hole for two months?). I sleep well knowing that this movie is so far fetched.... if this movie were plausible, we'd have already blown up the world.

Beautiful from the outside

It took me quite some time to assemble it. The hinges were crooked, and the lid won't click in place.I read that it holds around 200someting diapers....my eyeballs popped out: who in their right mind would store so many diapers (or only 10)in a trash can and not take it out?? I mean, I would have preferred they focused on other details they left out such easability to maneuver or some nice mat under it, or a support for a sanitizer or some baby wipes, etc. attached to it !I probably did not need it or hoped it will be more to it. It is not more to it.But I like the color and ..and the dignity it carries standing next to my baby's crib.

Love my kindle...

I was honestly surprised by how much I ended up loving the kindle. I love the convenience of having tons of books with me without the weight. I also love the size, shape, and overall appearance of the kindle. I purchased mine almost a month ago and decided to send it back and hold out for the newer model beind released in August. I only did this due to the promise of "improved contrast." My only complaint about the kindle 2 was that the text seemed a bit dull, which prompted a 4 star rating instead of 5. I can't wait to receive the new one. I am having withdrawal symptoms from lack of kindle already!

#1 Clancy Book

This is the best book written by Clancy, however, Jack Ryan is nowhere in this. There are several references to "the president", and only one time do they actually say "Jack" in this.However, what makes this book the best is that it would be so easy for someone todo something like this. This is definatly Clancy at his best. Clark and Chavez definatly bring it home in this. Its a very long book, but it is a page turner. Great novel for anyone who wants some excellent reading.

Stick with the regular Dr. Brown's bottles instead...

Do not buy these bottles! I tried the original, long and slender Dr. Brown bottles, and was so satisfied that I decided to purchase the wide-neck version as well; they seemed more trendy and convenient... more bulk/less height. First of all, they are not convenient at all as they are still very tall, almost as tall the regular shaped 8oz Dr. Brown's, and much more bulkier; making these far less convenient to take with you. Secondly the nipples in this version are different from the original size bottles; Their feeding effect... they are not as adaptable to an infant's mouth as the regular slender-neck Dr. Brown bottles. You will notice the difference in your child's feeding behavior; it will not be smooth feeding time like it is with the traditional shaped.I am 100% satisfied with the original Dr. Brown design, but I sincerely cannot recommend these. Take my advice and don't make the same mistake I did; stick with the slender version bottles.

The only book you'll need, do not buy a new car without it!

Mr. Bragg's book is by far the best book available about the new-car buying process. He describes how an uninformed car-buyer is treated, versus how an educated and well-armed buyer is treated by the dealer sales staff, and my experience matched exactly. I bought the book after I started looking for a car, and by following his guidelines I noticed a positive change in how I was treated. By far the best part is the supplemental service he offers- a nominal fee will get you an information packet for the specific car or cars you are interested in. Mr Bragg tracks several industry sources, which he uses to generate his reports: manufacturer quality, sales performance statistics, even typical selling prices are reported. I expect to save nearly $4K on a popular model by applying his tactics!

misleading

I was excited to find a book on crafting canoe paddles only to be let down by the lack of information a reader would expect. The author writes of forms, jigs, and tools that he has built for shaping canoe paddles but fails to explain or show how to make these items. This book gives the history of canoe paddles and misses quite a bit of information that is helpful for the build. There is also a lack of clear or detailed pictures and absolutely no color pictures. This book is great for the coffee table but less effective if you want a step by step on the paddle building process. There is also no mention of wrapping the finished paddles with fiberglass as do many paddle makers. (e.g. watch the construction video on whiskeyjack paddles website).

Much less quality armoire than expected

The jewelry armoire arrived very quickly and was packaged great. It was a lighter color (and more red) than shown in advertising pictures. I was surprised how little real wood was in the armoire. The legs, drawer fronts, and lid were wood. Everything else appeared as composite wood or plywood or MDF. What dissapointed me the most were the quality of the drawer sides, bottoms, and back and the support structure of the case. They were composite type wood (or chip core) and not very pleasant to slide in/out. The drawer rough bottom edges made their use unpleasant and hard to slide. I bought this for my wife as a gift. I was disappointed enough with it to go out and buy her another one immediately at my local furniture store. I will get rid of this one.

Purely looking at this as a concert DVD it's great. Though i wish it would've included some more extras, such as interviews and commentary. Also Tenacious D seems to have excluded their hilarious webisodes for Pick of Destiny from both the DVD for that movie and for this DVD, what gives? especially since they've since taken them down from the movie site.I'm nitpicking though, this is really a must buy if you're a die hard fan. If you aren't then really this isn't the DVD for you. The concert is chock full of references and inside jokes only fans will get.

I paid 18 bucks for this book and all it is ,is about 10 pages of a preacher/teacher guy lecturing and the rest is just several pages of occult themed pictures all in drawn black and white.The pictures were cool, but the book was in no way worth what I paid for it.If you truly want it, try to find a decent used copy as cheaply as you can.

Fabulous fun!

Recently we purchased this feeder and hung it closer to our porch windows than we had our older feeders. We adjusted it a couple of times, trying to discourage the grackles. This last adjustment did the trick! Even ONE closes the doors. Several small birds can still feed, and a cardinal plus one small bird can enjoy it at the same time. The competitiion between the small birds is so fun to watch. Best feeder we have ever owned.

RETURNING!

I ordered a NEW print pack and received a box that is all beat up and it's dated 2001! The die in the ink ribbon is probably all dried up or will dry up quickly once opened!

Product will die within a year or so

I have owned two of this company's (iGo) chargers and both have died within about a year. Specifically, the charger will simply stop charging. When plugged in the blue light on the charger will come on and then immediately fade. The company was great about honoring the two-year warranty on the first charger, but the replacement died a year later. Unfortunately their warrant is from the date of the initial purchase, so if the replacement dies and the two years from initial purchase have passed you are out of luck. I don't know about you, but that simply doesn't sit well with me. If you warranty your product for two years, then the clock should start again when the product is replaced.Seriously consider purchasing a universal charger manufactured by a different company.

not the best

This disc did not live up to expectations. Live techno music is a relatively new thing, with Kernkraft 400 on the radio and Paul Oakenfold's Resident album. With Underworld, you just dont get the same feeling as you do on those other albums. Still, the playlist is great, with Cups, Pearl's Girl and Born Slippy, but Underworld doesnt sound as good live. Try Beaucoup Fish instead.

Hardcover edition of a Must Have Book for Girls

This book is about as perfect as they come for explaining what she needs to know about puberty to a young girl without going into details of "the birds & the bees." The topics are presented clearly without being embarrassing, and the illustrations and style make it more engaging. I would highly recommend this for girls 10-13, but only younger if they are early bloomers. I let my daughter read all but the last section when she was 9.

A MUST HAVE!!

My son LOVES this!! we usually have it on the rain sound. It is really cute to listen to him when it's set to the whales.. he lays there cooing it's like he's talking to them. this one sound is not the best setting for him to sleep by, but during the day it's like his friend!!I couldn't imagine this sheep being much bigger (I guess there also is a home one that is much larger), I think this one is the perfect size for home or travel.I think this is a MUST have!!

Terrible book

This is the worst calculus study guide that I have ever attempted to use. This book uses notation that is difficult to understand unless you already know the subject, which makes it useless. This book does nothing to help you understand the subject. I have already taken three semesters of calculus and bought this book to use for review and I couldn't even understand it.

Durability Problems

I have had two ROOMBAs (A Discovery and Discovery SE) for about five months now. We have three German Shepherds, multiple cats and a large house. Our ROOMBAs are used twice daily on the MAX setting.Although they clean well I've had lots of problems keeping them functional with multiple cliff sensor and brush drive failures despite cleaning them, cleaning the brushes and blowing them out with air after each use. The folks at I Robot have been great about replacing them under warranty but the process is beginning to get tiresome. I can only conclude that long-term durability is, at best, questionable and that maintenance is far greater than that of a "normal" vacuum. The whole equation adds up to time saved having a robot vacuum = zero.

don't waste your money

I knew this book was from ultra conservatives, nontheless, I bought this book out of interest. After reading several chapters in the beginning, I wanted to return this to the bookstore for nothing!This book is full of insults without any clear logic. I am certain she surely hates liberals, but few of them are..well.. making senses. i once read Buchanans "death of the west" which I kinds of liked it although I hated the authors.. but this one ddoesn't even worth the reading, and you will realizs you have wasted your money and time after reading several chapters..

Prayers are few and far between

This book contains very few actual prayers. It gives a history of prayer, why we should pray, and how to create your own. You have to search really hard (difficult to do on a Kindle)to find an actual prayer. Decided to return because it is not "a book of pagan prayer" but rather a book about pagan prayer. I was looking for a simple prayer book to help with daily meditation, not another history book.

Too fragile for the cost

I really like this MP3 player until I accidentally dropped it. The player was in its case when I dropped it a couple of feet getting out of my car. Not much of a drop and I thought it was OK until I tried to raise the volume and it would not go up. The volume would go down, so now I have an MP3 player that works except the volume is at 0. Intel does not warranty its switches and buttons but they will generously (ha, ha) replace my MP3 player for $75. I should spend my money on a cheaper MP3 player that won't be so expensive to replace if it gets dropped again.

One of The Best

One of my favourites. I was thoroughly dissapointed by Memnoch and Pandora and this restored my faith in Anne Rice. I have not yet had the pleasure of reading Vittorio but I hope she keeps up the trend with this style of writing.I was not offended by the relationship with Marius bacause, unlike other people, I am apparantly able to differentiate between fiction and reality. If I had any grievances with the book, their names were Sybelle and Benji. I could not find a point to their existence, but Anne usually has her reasons, even if we aren't made aware of them at first. I wholly enoyed this book. More on Bianca please Anne!

Go to gamefaqs...DON'T BUY THIS GUIDE!

If you wanted the "ultimate guide" for Grandia...then keep looking...this isn't! The format of the book was disappointing...I wanted something more like David Cassady done in his FF8 guide...but this guide only covers the game without covering the bonus dungeons and secrets. I also thought that this guide was going to include maps for every dungeon, like the ones found in the instruction booklet, but there aren't any. I know thar Grandia is a linear RPG...but please! they can make a good guide...take Final Fantasy Tactics guide for example... So...please...DON'T BUY THIS GUIDE!

A true gem that stands the test of time...

A couple of years after hearing this record for the first time I still find it fresh, innovative and simply enjoyable. Although not free of imperfections, Furtado's first album is a bold statement by a mainstreem artist who is not afraid to go in her own direction. I instantly got hooked on songs like "On the radio", "Legend", "Party" and the beautiful "Scared of you". And "Turn off the light" is the best song I've ever heard on a pop record - you just can't get enough of it!

Factually Inaccurate

Caveat Emptor: This book is based in large part on interviews conducted by the late New York Post sports columnist Milton Gross, my father. They were used without the permission of his heirs, and were never checked against the audiotapes on which they were based which are in my possession and have been for almost thirty years. But what's worse is that the book is factually innacurate and the author did not even attempt to confirm what he printed. Instead of thanking the person whose work he based his book on, Rosen prints untruths about him. One example: on the last page of the book, Rosen has Milton Gross skipping Molinas' funeral and instead, attempting to cash in on his death. Milton Gross had been dead for over two years when Molinas died. He would have had to make that call from his grave.

raw and beautiful

When I first heard this disk, I cringed a little bit -- it was SO electric, and I was used to the softer sound of Living with the Law. But I gave it a chance, knowing that Chris Whitley doesn't put out bad music. And what I would have lost, had I never listened to it again! Narcotic Prayer is one of the most plaintive, beautiful songs I've ever heard. Guns and Dolls continues to be on my list of favorite songs of all time. And fans of the acoustic sound will inhale the wonderful New Machine and Days of Obligation, the hidden track. Even if you aren't a fan of the electric sound, you can't help but love the raw anguish oozing from Whitley's voice and guitar-playing on this album. Buy it!

A Disappointing Reunion For Sure!

Wow! I bought this CD for a few bucks used and I still feel cheated. I expected so much more from this 1996 reunion (short-lived) CD and got so much less. Tracks 1,3 and 4 have started to grow on me but as another reviewer pointed out, the rest is mostly unlistenable. I don't know if Journey toured to support this album but as I was listening I found myself imagining the lukewarm reactions of concert audiences everywhere as Steve Perry announced "and now we'd like to play something off of our new album" ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz. I recently saw the new Journey in concert with current singer Steve Augeri. It was great. He sings like Steve Perry used to be able to sing in about 1980. My recommendation is to skip "Trial by Fire" and go straight for Journey's 2001 release "Arrival" with the new Steve.

2nd time around

My first shredder died because I did not maintain it - they need to be oiled! But it lasted quite well so I bought the same make but with features I thought desirable. The top remains on the frame when the basket is removed - no struggling with an unwieldy power unit. It is quiet. The tiny pieces of paper take up little space and so it is possible to shred many sheets before emptying the unit. It came well packed and was easy to assemble. Rarely jams and when it does reverse fixes the problem.

This is a garbage movie. The only thing worse than the beginning and middle of the movie was the end! The movie is an insult to not only those unfortunate to watch it but also to the actors.

Complete waste of time and money

I will NEVER buy another product from Kidco. The instructions for this adapter are completely useless. And even though it says "No Drill" all over the box, you find out when you try to install it that in fact you DO have to drill screws into plastic pieces with no pre-cut holes and crummy blocks of wood that insert into the plastic. Of course the worthless directions don't clearly mention that. And the instructions for the gate that goes with this adapter are even worse! Unfortunately, I can't return either product and will have to throw both into the trash. Terrible company and terrible product.

Stick with the Animated Version

Michael Jai White is impressive as Spawn but is saddled with a rather wooden characterization. Obviously, Martin Sheen filmed many of his scenes unsure of the "effect" to which he would be acting.The only saving grace is the magnificent Leguizamo as "The Clown." He is totally in character and unrecognizable as the sinister hellish acolyte.

Incredibly Wonderful Toy!!

We bought this for our 6 year old grandson for Christmas. He is a very inquisitive child that has a big thirst for knowledge, so when we saw Brian the Brain we thought it would be a great idea. When Christmas morning arrived and he opened the toy, he couldn't put it down. This is the most mesmerizing toy I think any of our grandkids have seen. Right away Brian broke the ice with our grandson with his sense of humor and up to date way of speaking so that todays children understand him and feel comfortable with him. Within minutes our grandson was quoting facts to us and trying to get all of us involved.I think anyone that is looking for the perfect educational toy for any child age 5-13 should invest in Brian because you won't be let down.

Very Good Camera

With this camera u can take 5-60 second mpeg videos but at a pretty good quality. With a photo printer ive been able to make excellent 8x10's also using the software that comes with the camera. (Arcsoft Photo Studio v2.0) The only real downside to this camera is the quite slow recording speed using memory stick. But if your willing to spend more towards a speed memory stick you will be very happy with this camera. It also has a very high speed just using plain old floppy discs. This camera has a load of great features and is very good overall

Pretty good

This was short. And it had big margins! But it was good.Its based on an account of a white woman who is captured and adopted into a Native American tribe. Its written so well I had to keep wondering----the author does say a lot of it is fictional thats not from the account. But you can't tell too much.Its not incredibly detailed or some such. Its not supposed to be.Its a fictional story of a woman and the way she survived when her family was brutally murdered by Indians and taken by those same people. She adopted their ways and was married to two Indian men. Its supposed to be written like she is recounting it. Its not going to be a drama, or a rich unfolding tale of sweeping magnitude. Its short and sweet. Just fine by me.Its a sad tale. But an adventurous one. I later found out my ancestors lived near her; in Genesee. I wonder if they knew of her?

Average read - very disappointing ending

I read this book thinking it would be a great story. First of all, Jane's character is just not likeable - especially considering her lack of feelings for her unborn child. She seemed to have no real purpose and was boring. Bee was interesting you could say, but she wasn't any more likeable. What was with the Dad coming into Jane's room and telling her lies? I did not grasp that at all. The only characters I found somewhat interesting were the Dad and Mr. Denzer. This book started off okay for me, but quickly got boring and seemed to have no purpose. The ending was so awful that I just laughed. It would have been nice to know if Jane had ever bonded with her baby, or what she had done with it. Oh well, just my opinion. I think the story had potential, but was just kind of washed out.

This book has got to be one of the best I have read this year! It was romantic, sexy, funny and downright entertaining. The characters and situations were so real you could imagine being there. Some of the situations you never expect to read about in a romance had me laughing out loud and bringing back memories of the same thing happening to me.This was by far my favorite of the Allgood series. If you enjoyed the previous ones you will absolutely love With Open Arms. Two thumbs up to Ms. Louise and I know she will not disappoint us, so I look forward to reading Brax's story in the near future. Buy the book you will not be sorry!

Couldn't be happier!

Just received my Invicta 8932 (the smaller quartz version) and I couldn't be happier. It looks very classy and has that quality feel that you find on similar watches that cost thousands of dollars. Save your money, buy one of these and use what's left over on a trip to the Bahamas or Figi and really use it on a dive trip! The bezel is a little loose but I don't mind that because I'd rather have it that way anyway (easier to use). If you want a great looking, classy, cool watch that's not oversized go for it! You won't regret it.
