The Micro that blasts

This is a great product. Easy and portable -it makes a terrific sound and has multiple tunings and adjustments. Can run with the big boys.

Doesn't fit the S5 IS
|
I bought this case for the Canon S5 IS I picked up a few days ago. I just received the case today. I can barely cram the camera into it, and then only if I remove the neck strap. There is a pocket for memory cards, but I'd be afraid the camera body might crush them. I'm sending it back. The product packaging states this is for the S2 IS, S1 IS, and G6, so why is it being advertised for the S5 and S3 here on Amazon?

Good quality but run small
|
The boots are well built but it runs small. I read the other reviews and ordered one size larger. But still tight to slide in as I have a high arch. So if u have high arch probably need two size larger.

Garage band sound
|
Come on. Bruce Palmer and Dewey Martin could be replaced in a second. Fact. Neil Young, Stephen Still and Richie Furay were the Buffalo Springfield. Its like going to a Steppenwolf concert without John Kay. There are members that carry the band and others that don't. Sorry my vote is this DVD is a rip off.

The Reason I Didn't Buy This Stand
|
If you're not into style and good looks, than this music stand is for you! It's plain white colored cardboard stand (makes it easy to damage) with a musical note cut out in the middle. If you have a table to put it on while playing your instrument you're good to go. it's portable and not to mention recyclable!I didn't think it was that high of quality (which is why it's $1.00) and I need something to stand with and I'm not going to hold the stand up while playing. Sure it's portable but if you want to take it somewhere like in the park with you it could easily blow away. It's possible to spill water on it and damage it if it's cardboard and it might also be bent, torn, or broken easily depending on the thickness or thinness of the cardboard and the description doesn't tell how think the carboard is.

Disappointing
|
I love Tony Bennett! I loved the first Duets CD. This one is a far cry from the first and extremely disappointing. Among some of the things I disliked: He does two duets with two people who were on the first CD--Michael Buble and kd lang. I love Buble but really, Tony, aren't there others you can showcase. Also, he does the same arranged song "How do you keep the Music playing" with Aretha as was done on the first cd with George Michael. And while I'm not a George Michael fan, that version was far better than Aretha screaming it out. Don't get me started on the horrendous sounds of Amy Winehouse. And finally, Carrie Underwood should sue because no one would know that was her singing with Tony--not sure what they did to her voice but it wasn't good. Overall, the song selection has alot more unknown songs than popular/familiar songs. Just disappointing. Sorry Tony--maybe Duets III will be better!

Weakest of the Turow Novels
|
Before encountering The Law of Our Fathers, I had enjoyed reading everything written by Scott Turow, beginning with L1, his memoir of his first year of law school at Harvard. But, alas, this book just didn't hold together. The characters were interesting, and the writing decent, but the story failed to hold my interest. Every good writer to takes some risks and Turow is entitled to one less than stellar work. I look forward to reading his next!

Disappointing

I was disappointed in these glasses - when I unpacked them, I felt they were cheap looking. They had a "seam" running down the side of the glass, which I associate with poor quality. In addition, two of the glasses had small chips in them; one broke after I took it out of the box. Not recommended.

DO NOT PUT IN THE DISHWASHER
|
Not only is this item not dishwasher safe, it will be RUINED if you put it in the dishwasher. The coating comes right off, and every time I put it back in the dishwasher the soap sticks to it and bonds with the metal. At that point in order to use it, you have to scrub off the soap by hand.These are going in the trash, and the Farberware ones are on the way...

Disappointed
|
well, there seems to be a general lack of information on all auto upholstery books and this was no exception. Poor quality photos, can't tell anything by them. Book is written by someone who knows the business but is not a teacher. Most people buying these books just want to do they're own 1 or 2 car project. Like myself. We need details for everything. You "the writer" needs to explain the process from start to finish, including how to thread a sewing machine, type of threads, types of foam and uses, adhesives, materials, tools, supplies. I've been learning a lot on my own and got some good ideas from youtube and some from this book. I know that this is a craft and probably takes time to learn. ***All I can say is: Keep writing and making these books better"*** / Update it with better photos, descriptions and ideas. Thank you!

Cookie Press
|
I have always wanted a cookie press but thought they would be hard to use. This one is very nice. My only confusion was the instructions were not as clear as I would have liked them to be, but, after several tries, I figured it out. I like the fact that the press is metal and is very sturdy. It was also easy to clean.

A Truley Horrible Horror Film
|
A truly horrible horror film. Over use of not so special "special effects" attempted to divert our attention from the fact that the movie never gained any momentum, and that the characters were never developed or interesting. The only thing that's scary about this film is that someone actually tried to improve upon a classic horror movie so frightening the memory of which still scares me after 30 years. The other thing that scares me about this movie is the reoccurring memory that I actually paid to see it.

Coles notes version of another self help book
|
I have been studying Dr. Abraham Low's "Mental Health Through Will Training," which is along the same lines as this book by Dr. Claire Weekes, which I just recently read. I find Dr. Low's book superior because it is more detailed, gives far more examples and more self help techniques. I am also a member of Dr. Low's Recovery Inc meetings, which have been a big help. The book by Dr. Weekes is ok if you are looking for a summary type book; for a "full length" version minus any religious references, go with Dr. Low.

in the description it says that they are stretch.... this is not the case. They are 100% cotton. so, they don't fit like the stretch versions. a little bit tighter fitting. especially after first wash, even in cold water. the white stitching looks cool though, so I'm keeping em.

Very good book
|
It has been a few years since I read this book but I do remember it was a very good book. Here is what the backcover says,Keeper of the Ancient Secrets.Tala ap Griffin was both princess and priestess to the people of Arden Wood. And Lord Edon Halfdansson had succumbed to her mysterious charms. But was her power simple woodland sorcery, or the force of eternal love?His liege had decreed that Edon, Wolf of Warwick, return to his lair and take to wife the bewitching Tala, uniting their warring fiefdoms in peace-though a marriage bed shared with the fiery princess could prove nothing more than a battlefield!

Confusing portrayal of Jesus in the Temple
|
Great license has been taken in making this video. It is hard to follow and many of the scenes seem to have no connection. The BEST part of the video deals with the technicalities of the Temple ... this probably should have been the introductional part with the non-biblical "fluff" left out! I had intended to use this with children, aged 5 to 10 ... that would have been a waste of their time!

Bruce L. Shelley is a false teacher not Jesus
|
From beginning to end Bruce L. Shelly writes false conclusions about Jesus, the Old and New Testament, first century and later Christians. He has never connected the dots between the Old and New Testament and how the whole Bible is about Jesus. How can Bruce write as if he knows how Jesus thinks? Perhaps Bruce should open his heart and mind, re-read the Bible, ask many questions to people who have studied and lived the Word for many years, then perhaps he would have a more clear picture of how Jesus thinks. One does have to beleive who Jesus is, otherwise what he says does not matter.Peter

This book sucks!
|
This book is the most boring piece of trash I've read in a long time. The vocbulary is limited and the scope so narrow the story has virtually no meaning. It reads like a jaded, molested, sixteen year old boys fantasies. None of this is "disgusting" or "disturbing", its just stupid. There is no reason for any of the characters to act the way they do, nor does the story give any cause for the circumstance through which they endure. I want the fourty-five minutes it took to read back so I can waste them watching my socks dry.If Hell on Earth is your game, check out Barker's "Down Satan!" (which is where White ripped the idea off for this book I'm sure). If you want something honestly unsettleing, pick up James Havoc and enjoy.Don't waste your money on this waste of trees, I'll give you mine.

When a product mysteriously has 6 reviews all from April 5 and 6, all written in the same style, with the same exclamation points everywhere, the usual marketing superlatives like "fantastic", "amazing", etc., the entire rating system becomes corrupted for legitimate users and legitimate reviews.

I have been using Wade Cook's rolling stock and covered call strategies for quite some time and have been generating constant cash flow. Using the advice espoused by Wade in this new and incredible book, I have been able to avoid the really bad stocks and select winners.I have also been following Wade's advice in Real Estate Money Machine to create real wealth in real estate. Also recommend Nothing Down for the 2000's by Robert Allen who I understand also endorses Wade.

A Relationship Blockbuster
|
Every women should have this book in her library. Sobonfu Some gears this book towards Afrikans in the diaspora and basically analyses the differences in relationships across world view and cultural perspectives... You'll be given lessons in communication and the process of communing with spirit which is key to human beings survival. This book clearly outlines the importance of community and the role one plays as a member of a community. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in enhancing their relationships. This book is well worth the $, It's that deep!

Entertaining and playful? Not in my view.
|
If you like Disney and don't feel you are a bad person for going to the parks, skip this book. This book was more a dissertation on what the authors feel is wrong with American society and culture and how Disney World supports their view rather than a look behind the scenes. I can't help but wonder why they went in the first place. This is an AMUSEMENT PARK. There seems to be an element of society that has a problem with entertainment for the sheer joy of it.

I compared the 2230 with the Uniden TRU346 and bought the AT&T because it had a mute button and fit better to my ear.

Nothing for new fathers in here
|
The title is great and seems to indicate that you as a new father can learn something from this book.I did not find that to be the case. It lacks structure and doesnt present information in an interesting way. The actual information is also scarce and nothing new is added to the "normal" books on this topic. As a new father you will not be much wiser on your new role after reading this book.I found Christine Harris's books to be much better and would recommend those.

A Slow Boat From China.... Well Hong Kong

I am happy to say the USB to PS/2 Adapter workes very well. I plugged it in and the keyboard worked great. Some other reviewers had problems, I did not.If you are wanting to type anything from your key board using this adapter in the next six weeks that is not going to happen and this is not the product for you.Go with the more expensive option. Our adapter was shipped from RM 1007 Kwong Sang Hong in Hong Kong via what I think is a boat. We ordered this over six ago and it arrived one day before the end of November.In summary, it works, unfortunately you have to wait a VERY LONG time for delivery.

delicious

I initially heard these organ concertos on YouTube a mere two weeks ago and they were a revelation: virtuoso organ without liturgical associations and Handel at his most playful, occasionally even frolicsome. Ton Koopman and the ensemble understand the scale and decorousness of the baroque at the same time as the uses to which these compositions were put, i.e. interludes for the more portentous oratorios. Accordingly Koopman's formidable skill allows the sometimes demanding passages to sound light and joyous. The audio engineeering is crisp and brings out the lush mix of timbres, of brass and strings with the organ, in all its variety of stops. I can no longer say that Bach is unequalled where organ is concerned; I doubt that I'll ever tire of these Handel gems.

A wonderful book, that is so enchanting. (you can't help but fall in love with it). I loved this book from the start. A half-breed (indian) gun-slinger who has a soft spot in his heart for a daughter of saloon woman. She is a sweet innocent girl, he is anything but innocent. With her sweetness she finds the good in him and brings it out. This is a very adventurous tale with a lot of action and twists and turns. Their love has so many trials to face. Will love conquer all? Read one of the best books I've ever read and find out!

It's just OK
|
The Hero 3 is a very basic camera solution for outdoor, active photography.Pros:-- It is small and easy to carry-- the wrist strap worked well and left the camera securely on my armCons:-- as mentioned in another review, the quality of photos from the Hero 3 is extremely suspect; any "brightish" background will reduce the foreground subject of your photo to an almost unrecognizable blob-- the lack of real-time feedback and the above mentioned picture quality issues leave you less than confident of what you will see when back in front of a computer or TVIf this was a $50 item I could imagine it would come across much better as a fun, "I'll take what I get" novelty camera. At $150 it's not a trustworthy enough device to be worth the investment.

Suffers from Widescreen cropping

This film was made in Widescreen and it should be shown in its original format. All the production numbers take advantage of widescreen format and in this "pan-and-scan" video form they are "squeezed" in a way which does not do them justice.

Better than Temperamental
|
Walking Wounded still ranks as EBTG's best and first foray into melding techno with Tracey's buttery voice. It's eminently hummable but there is enough variety that you don't get anesthetized by the beats. I dig Temperamental too, but it sounds a little rehashed. Walking Wounded and the Acoustic record are absolutely the best works to come from the band.

Won't work with a router
|
I can't believe the hours I've spent trying to get this thing to function with a router, any router. I actually own three routers, 2 d-links and 1 Apple, and it just will NOT work with any of them. According to the documentation, the modem requires a crossover Ethernet cable (which is pretty unusual by itself). I've tried two different brand new crossover cables plus three regular Ethernet cables and it just doesn't work. This setup worked perfectly prior to installing the new cable modem (my previous d-Link modem died.)Unless your cable company forces this one down your throat, or if you never plan to add a router, I recommend staying away from this one. I'm returning mine tonight.

Be Careful You Don't Already Have This
|
The one thing I've learned through buying ANYTHING produced by the Discovery channel is that they have a tendency to replicate their DVDs under another name. Most (if not all) of this boxed set is already part of their Shark Week DVD sets. For that reason, I can't give it a more positive rating. The buyer is under the assumption that this is new footage when it clearly isn't. It's all old, recycled segments sold under a different name. Caveat emptor (let the buyer beware).

A complex man
|
Can a man who committed 2 murders be rehabilitated in prison? Robert Stroud, aka "The Birdman of Alcatraz" could. He transformed himself into a leader in the field of ornithology, a scientist and an expert on prison reform. Through his work with birds he taught himself not only to cure their diseases, but to heal himself. This man became a productive member of society under the most stringent, unfair conditions, and I believe should have been paroled long before his death 54 years after he first set foot in prison. A very moving book.

must be a guy thing

I am finding this book boring, obscure, and irritating. I guess I don't really care about a couple overgrown boys who love comic books. I work with them everyday, though in modern times, it's video games that they like. To me a hero isn't someone who can leap tall building but, rather, someone who overcomes personal demons to become a stronger person who can care for other people. In other words, a female. :-)I am finding this book especially disappointing because I liked Wonder Boys. I admit that I don't plan to put it down, even though I might skim some of the longer paragraphs and give up on looking up the annoyingly obscure words that I've never seen before. But I find it kind of irritating that it's good enough for me not to want to give up on it but not good enough for me to thoroughly it.

Good starting point
|
This book is excellent for beginning tribal style costuming. There were two drawbacks to the book. It doesn't go into a lot of depth on many of the issues (I was disappointed that there wasn't more on coin bras), and assumes the reader has a decent knowledge of sewing. The nice parts of this book are a good explanation on various jewelry, mehndi, simple instructions on tassel making and the incredible bibliography. I'd definitely recommend it as a good starting point for developing your costume, but you may want to look elsewhere to fill in the details. Fortunately, you can get ideas where else to look from this book.

Great fan
|
Like other reviews have said, this fan is quite powerful for its size. Even the lowest setting moves more air than a lot of other fans I've tried.This fan also lasts a long time. I have owned one for five years that still works great. During the summers, it is on in my bedroom constantly and I am amazed that it has held up this long.With that said, it is noisy. Not in a deafening roar sense, but loud enough that you'll notice it if it is in the room with you. Still, I like the noise. When I'm sleeping, it offers a good amount of white noise that helps me sleep.For the price, an excellent fan.

I bought this joy stick to use with X-Plane on my macbook pro. There is nothing in the box that talks about mac although on the outside of the box it say mac. The included software is for windows only. Logitech web site says they do not support mac but this item works with the mac. There are no instructions in the box or on the web site for the mac other than to say something like plug and play. For someone (like me) that is not familiar with gaming and joy sticks this product is lacking and appears to be junk. I see that another reviewer is using it on a mac without problems so I guess it will work.

Not very long lasting...
|
I used them on my Toyota all around and they lasted all of 4 years.One of the front shocks, the cross pin on it sheared. That should never of happened. The cross-pin corroded through and sheared off. Instead of one solid machined piece of steel, it was folded sheet metal which corroded through and rusted out. Not even the tough Rancho white paint could stop that I guess. The other front shock was blown/jammed. You couldn't compress it at all! Talk about a stiff ride...One of the rear ones leaked a bit but I could have lived with that. The other rear was fine.All of that in only 4 years of wear and tear - on road only. I'm trying other brands because Rancho is not as good as I thought.

Vaselines-esque?
|
Amazingly simple and astoundingly comlex all at once. And when people say it's a litle weird, they don't mean that it's chaotic and hard to lisen to (like say, some of the crazy feedback chaos songs you might find on Beck's Mellow Gold), because it's definitely melodic. I think they just are referring to the intentionally unsophisticated production. The singing isn't Whitney Houston, the instruments aren't Jimi Hendrix, and the sing-a-longs are a little out of pace with each other, but they capture a raw intensity and innocense that bands like The White Stripes would pay money for.

I had the misfortune of seeing this movie in the theatre. I was not sure when, but I would guess shortly into the movie (like 15 minutes) I was ready to leave. There is a lot of violence and shooting, but even that is not well done. It was one of the worst movies I have seen. The action scenes / violent scenes seemed to be not only a bit extreme, and I don't mean that it was too intense as much as out of place and overkill, but the plot was pretty poor as well. It just seemed that they were throwing a bunch of special effects (shootouts and explosions) and some big name actors /actresses at the movie and figuring that would be enough to carry the movie. It didn't work ... add this one to another Kevin Costner flop. Right up there with Waterworld!!

something to think about
|
Uncle Toms Cabin was an interesting book discussing the hardships of slavery in the 1800s. It takes you through life in the eyes of a slave, Tom. Uncle Toms Cabin shows you the hardships slaves went through to not get a beating from their master, though many endured that anyway. It opened my eyes to the reality of slavery, and the severity of it all. The book not only talks about slavery, but it also addresses the issue of religion. Although I did not get a chance to read Uncle Toms Cabin carefully, I enjoyed what I could of it and would definitely re-read it so I could get a better understanding.i would also definitely recommend this book to anyone that is interested in reading about the slavery issues of the 1800s.

Good For Kids

I think that Barney the purple dinosaur is a good role model for children 12-24 months.He teaches kids about hygiene, and how to treat each-other,etc.

Try the book!
|
Well, let's just say it could be a whole lot better! They cut and change much from the original story, you'll constantly being doing a Double-take. The acting was decent, but let's call this movie a flop, disgracing the book. If you read the book, and want to see how badly the messed up the movie, be my guest, but don't say I didn't warn you. Just try and resist the urge to throw things at Leslie..

Very nice set for the great price!
|
I read the reviews and judging by the brand name, I know that I am getting the best deal. And I was not disappointed at all! Even my 3 year old loved it, I thought she won't because it's a lot heavier than what we were used to. She says "I like it, Mommy, it's sparkly! LOL Needless to say, this replaced all our flatware. If you're not into heavy flatware, you may not want it, because my girl even complained with all the clinking noises it made while I am putting them away on the flatware organizer. But other than that, Bon Appetit!

Life Changing Material

You would never regret having this knowledge from the Word of God. I appreciate Kenneth E. Hagin so much. He lets you know how to live what you are reading. It is life changing. I would not be without it.

Son LOVES It!

My nearly 3yo son has all of these Hard Hat Harry DVDs and loves them all. I can't believe the things he learns from them. The best money I've spent. He would watch them repeatedly all day long if we let him.

Not A Good Feeder!
|
It's hard to tell by the pic if this is the same one I have but if the bottle is made of plastic it probably is. On mine the mouth of the bottle became warped and will not screw together tight. And once you do have it together and hold it straight up to hang, the bottom fills up and the liquid starts coming out....junk!

Bought for my daughter- I loved it myself.
|
I bought this book as a read aloud for my six year old and yes, she loved it. The illustrations and hand written notes from Cinderella to her dead mother added a degree of postmodern hilarity perfect for a smart nine to twelve year old and for me as well. This book makes a great gift.

My first album and still one of the finest.
|
I bought this album in August 1986 after I got a walkman for my birthday. I was 11 then and never stopped playing it! I heard "Take On Me" on the radio and then overheard it on someone else's walkman on a train (they didn't stop playing it!). From then on I was hooked - I hadn't seen the video. In my view, a great album is one that you buy for the hit singles but discover other songs that you like just as much, or even more. "Hunting High and Low" is such an album. I will never forget the lyrics of "Living a Boy's Adventure Tale", "Love is Reason" and "Here I Stand and Face the Rain" - these are songs that sound great and also mean something or send a message out to the listener. It is a shame that this band have not had much coverage in the 90's as I believe A-ha were the most talented and creative musicians in the 80's. Please come back!!

Packaging doesn't match picture
|
This ink jet cartridge arrived in the old style packaging not matching the picture and thus suggesting that the vendor is selling new old stock. It cannot be returned successfully because the fine print says that this is sold by an outside vendor so I'm out the price I paid on this ink jet cartridge - so much for saving money on Amazon.

Good, Independent Film

I got on a J.P. Allen kick and rented all his films. This one's a good drama with decent production value. The acting's pretty good. It held my interest.

Thought provoking
|
I thought this movie was very well acted. It dealt with some very touchy issues for most people. When David, played by Brendan Fraser, finds out his sister is carrying a baby who will probably be gay it leaves him questioning his own homosexuality. After asking his parents what they would have done if they had know he was gay and getting a very hurtful response he cuts off all ties with them and his sister.It poses the question, "does my life have meaning?". Also the issues of genetic testing are explored as well as abortion.

Useless indoors
|
This camera is is compact and easy to use, but I have yet to get a viewable video indoors. I've had every light in the room on - more than required to read a book on the couch, yet the video is dark and blurry. Outdoors it's better but the recordings of my daughter's soccer game are still dicey if I use the zoom. Overall it's just a waste of time and money to try and capture family moments with this camera.

I liked it.
|
I found this DVD to be more entertaining than instructional, per se. In an odd way, it's almost comedic -- the host's mixed english/french accent along with his two students whose grasp on the english language is fleeting. By the end, the host is making fun of the students to their face and resigns to showing the best the south of france has to offer.

Gift for Grandson

This gift was a complete success. He played it nearly constantly the first week after Christmas. He had requested this game for his birthday in October so I knew it would be a hit.

If you loved the first one, this one might be worth a rent from the video store, but i thought that they were both pretty bad.

First pair of suspenders, everything arrived as advertised. Very clever clip design, would buy again. Although the durability means I likely will never need to.

Prone to snapping

I used these in combination with my coleman raft. After 3 trips out the plastic part in the center that hold the top half and the bottom half together snapped.I guess you can't expect too much for $8

TREAT YOURSELF AND BUY THIS CD...
|
This is an AWESOME album...great to kick back and enjoy the holidays listening to! It has beautiful orchestration complimenting the mello sound of James Taylor's voice. I played this CD while working at a boutique at Christmas, and almost everyone that came in wanted to know whose CD we were playing so that they could purchase it. One of my favorite songs is "River" which can only be heard if you purchase the CD...can't download the MP3...so do yourself a favor this Christmas and buy 'James Taylor At Christmas'...I guarantee you will not be sorry!MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE...BE SAFE!

can be used as a cookbook
|
There are numerous well written books on algorithms. Those by Sedgewick and Knuth come to mind, for example. But some students find these too hard. Binstock and Rex aimed their work at this need. This book has very little in the way of fancy maths. It emphasises examples with complete code listings. Not unlike "Numerical Recipes". Hence, you can also treat the text as a cookbook for your needs.The code is in C. If you are using another language, you can get some practise in seeing how well and accurately you understand the book's code.

not for dogs over nine pounds
|
This item is probably best for dogs five pounds and under. it reduces the area of the wee wee pad with the frame, plus leaves some excess sticking out of the edge (depending on size of your wee wee pad). My dog urinated off of the side of the frame, making this more of a mess to clean than a wee wee pad alone.
