1	Another hidden gem	Seems in '91 that Roadrunner and Century Media were doing the best they can to keep metal-based music alive, and the song "Cults of Unknown" goes a long way toward that. Kick-ass progressions and a driving verse keep your head banging!	positive
1	Loved it!	I couldn't put this book down! The writing flowed beautifully and takes you to the Amazon with the story. I'm pretty sure I could feel the humid air and smell the plantlife. It pulls you in and keeps you there. Did I mention HOT and I don't mean the climate. Wonderful read!	positive
1	Fabulous Versatile Baby Carrier!	I got a hotsling after my baby was too heavy to use the Bjorn. You can use the hotsling in several different positions, and they are SO comfy, even with my 25lb toddler! I used mine with my daughter even when she was two years old and I was five months pregnant. I cannot say enough good things about this sling. It is beautiful and well made.With a little practice it is second nature to use it! I highly recommend checking some babywearing sites online for advice and help using it if you are having trouble. It is worth it to carry my baby comfortably hands free!	positive
0	Boring.	Bought it for inspiration but it was boring. But, hey, I've been on this journey for a long time and know most of the books and tricks. If you know of someone who is just starting out or if you're just starting out, go for it.	negative
1	Awesome-Again!	Clay, once again suprises me..I have listened to this CD thinking how could he be better--he is! Clay's voice, range, his use of his God given talent is astounding. All the songs are wonderful especially Invisible and Measure of a Man! He gets better and better and I hope he has a long wonderful journey ahead. I would recommend this CD to everyone. What a great addition to every music library.	positive
1	Beautiful and diverse early Portuguese music	Gerard Lesne is at his best here with a disc giving a rare slice of Portuguese music from 1500. I have listened to this disc countless times and the nuances and joy of Lesne and the artists he works with only manifest more. An album of delight and discovery.	positive
0	bad teacher	BAD is right!!! After the first half hour had to turn it off. Life is way to short. I wouldn't waste your money on buying it. Rent it first if at all.	negative
0	Not her best effort by far	As a fan of this series, I found this work extremely disappointing. It reads more like a short story than a novel; barest outlines of events and characters, some outright errors in continuity within the book's lesser characters, lack of the usual careful filling in of local (historically accurate?) color. Truthfully, not worth reading as it adds nothing to the series and is cetainly a poor example of Ms. Peter's work. I sincerely hope she doesn't continue in this vein with this series, which previously was one of the best. If so, she will lose a great segment of her audience.	negative
1	She Contributed Something That Was Truly Hers	Contribution is not one of her strongest suits of music, but she showed the world that she got what it takes to tackle something that she holds dear to her. She sang a Prince song that showcased her dark smoky vocals as enticing. With the vocal backing of Cindy Mizelle, she and Mica (along with eleven others, including Will Downing) made the song hers. South Of The River is one of my faves. Truth And Honesty, Just To Be With You, Contribution and the remake of Smokey Robinson's More Love are good songs. Contribution is not an A effort, but she gets a C- for trying.	positive
1	Sonicare Brush Heads	We've had the Sonicare Elite toothbrush for a number of years. It has performed flawlessly. The brush heads have to be replaced periodically. They are designed for the brush, and also perform excellently. We are satisfied with all aspects of this system.	positive
1	My first attempt pleased even myself!	I am my own worst critic, but my first attempt produced a lovely little piece of Celtic quilting that I am proud of. There are many great tips scattered throughout the book, including basic machine quilting tips that help take the intimidation factor out of the process.I am now in the process of planning another larger project and can't wait to get started!	positive
0	No chance to know...	Waiting with much anticipation, we received thisnoteworthy disc only to discover it was NON-FUNCTIONAL!!We were dismayed, dissappointed, upset and even angry.We can only fault the vendor and their lack ofQUALITY CONTROL as regards their offerings.Buyer Beware!	negative
1	Excellent Tool	Good heavy-duty quality tool. Worked like a champ for me and had the cartridge out in no time. Should be able to use this tool for years to come....very pleased with it!	positive
0	Tries Too Hard to be Cool	I guess I just don't get it. While attempting to read this I never was sure if at any particular moment the author was using metaphors or being literal in his storytelling. I am a voracious reader of sci-fi, horror, and fantasy, and I really wanted to enjoy this book and tried hard to finish it but couldn't get much further than half way. I got the impression that Mamatas was trying to be cool just for the sake of being cool - way too full of himself. Reminded me a lot of Tarantino's style of film making, which I often enjoy, but does sometimes get to be annoying. In this case, Mamatas style was pretty much continuously annoying to me	negative
0	DONT BUY!	Hi,I am a graduate student from germany. After I just read the excerpts online, I could not believe that anyone ever bought this poor book and thinks it is a good start to learn Colloquial German. Living 25 Jears in Germany I definitely know what German slang is like and this book doesn't have the foggiest idea. Please don't ever use one of the words from the book in Germany!	negative
0	Passport to Boredom	As someone who has followed the Olsen's work for many years, I must say that Passport to Paris made me weep. My tears were not of joy but were, rather, of mourning. Mourning for a bygone era to which I had nary a chance to say "goodbye." Goodbye to the sweet, sensitive protrayals of pre-pubescent siblings whose surpisingly complex characters were beautifully interwoven into simple and yet poignant storylines. Hello to a new breed of Olsen - an Olsen who would rather quickly coast through a predictable plot and grab her paycheck on the way out the door. When did this all get so commercial? Needless to say, Passport to Paris will not be the vehicle to bring the Olsen's their long-overdue Oscar nomination. But it is the perfect vehicle to expose Mary Kate and Ashley for what they've become: Sell-outs to corporate greed who put money ahead of their artistic values. Shame on the Olsens!	negative
1	Remote worked, my idea didn't	I ordered 2 of these and they were delivered, on time and together. They both worked properly. I did return them as my idea for them wouldn't work. I wanted to leave them in vehicles that I sometimes have to park outside, so anyone breaking into the vehicle would be unable to merely push a button and open the garage. The problem is that only 1 at a time of the these keypads can be programmed to operate the same garage door opener. I would program one keypad opener and get it to work, but when I went to program the 2nd keypad opener for the same garage door it would work, but it would wipe out the first keypad code from working. I tried many different ways to do this and even asked the company for advice.I contacted the company fairly easily and told them of my situation. I was informed that my idea would not work. The company explained how I could return them and my account was credited, less the $10 restocking fee when they received them.	positive
1	A book that offers freedom from food addiction	The Hellers haven't written just another diet book. I can safely make that statement as I have read them all<G>. After reading the "The Carbohydrates Lifespan Program", I came away with a sense of relief, knowing that there was finally a program, no a lifestyle, meant for me, a carbohydrate addict. Their book was only the beginning, I found a whole support group through the internet to help keep me going. Might end up being the best investment I ever made...we'll see.	positive
0	Serious disappointment	Hoping to fill my tv screen 60 led, this cable didn't do it. I did discover that they make hd vga cables that do it. This one didn't. I got a new cable that works	negative
0	refers to LARGE PRINT EDITION - HarperCollins	I am returning the HarperCollins Large Print edition of Pride and Prejudice because the PRINT IS TOO SMALL for a Large Print book. I am distressed that it bears the NAVH (National Association of the Visually Handicapped) mark -- the font is clearly smaller than other, commercially produced, large print books.Obviously, this review does not address the content of Austen's work -- I'm objecting only to the presentation by this publisher.	negative
1	The funniest since A Year in Provence - maybe funnier	Just read it. I dont want to give it away. But, an American, not a polished English writer writes from his point of view -- and you know, Italians must be crazier than the French - and they are!	positive
1	It works	It works as advertised. I use this so that I can plug the transmitter for my Sennheiser RS 160 into my Denon receiver's headphone jack.	positive
1	A must have	A wheelchair cushion is a must have, if you have to spend much time in the chair!This one should fill the bill, at a moderate price level.Time will tell on durability.	positive
0	Irritatingly Written But Hard to Argue With	Rick Hess argues from Scripture that Christian couples should not use birth control but trust their sovereign God to bless them with the number of children He will. Hess could have benefitted from having someone else actually write this book for him because his sarcastic tone reveals someone who is reacting to the wrong attitudes in our culture. It's irritating to find such good thoughts presented in so unpersuasive a style. Still, this is a perspective on family that Christians ought to think about. Read Hess's book with your Bible nearby, so you can read the verses he quotes in their original context.	negative
1	Powerful attitude changing steps	Really enjoyed reading this book. Beleive it will help change my life. Becuase attitude is everything. I truely beleive that statement. Must have for the person who wants to be a winner in life. Great for a person who thinks negatively all the time.	positive
1	Cute but for younger kids...	I bought this for my niece to fill-out when the new baby came. It has really cute sections like what the baby likes to eat & 1st holidays etc., However, I feel that it is geared more towards younger children (think 4-7).	positive
1	One of the best RPGs I've played in years	Although I had never heard of the game, I bought it anyway to see what it was like, as I was running out good RPGs to play. I was amazed at how involved I got with this game! The story, the heroes, the villians, I loved every moment of it. It brought back memories of classic RPGs where you round the corner and are completely surpised by what happens next. Most RPGs being produced at the moment follow the generic formula and don't differ from one another that much except for character designs and bland storylines. After completing this game, I await Konami's follow ups to the series, even if I have to get the PS2.	positive
1	The Tycoons	A masterful book about the great tycoons and how they created empires. The Tycoons is detailed, vivid, inciteful and engaging.	positive
1	What more can you say it's Kiss	Great Cd, the song just is not Kiss, you can tell right off the bat it was not written by Kiss, because it has no edge, most of the tracks are great, the AC/DC remake just plain out sucks!! Manson needs to learn to sing and AC/DC should file a law suit. But as for the rest it is a great cd, i would highly recomend buying it, just skip track 6. Kiss I hope the Rumors aren't true that this will be a farewell tour, you guy are the greatest!!	positive
0	I won't buy another Trager product	I loved my first trager backpack. After many years of use it eventually came apart at the seams. I liked it so much, that I bought another. The same thing happened, the seams came apart, but this time it happened almost immediately. I contacted Trager and they asked me to send it in for repair or replacement. I did this. Then I NEVER heard back from them again. I have emailed, called and left VMs and tried everything. They have never responded to me. I now have to buy something else as I have been without the bag I was using every day. I will not buy another Trager product.	negative
1	Amazing - Disturbing - Appalling and beautiful	This is the train wreck of artwork. Filled with disturbing and graphic images that are so intricately detailed you can spend hours on a single image and not see everything.This book is based on H.P. Lovecraft's fictional creation the Necromicon, is still a collection of some of the most masterful artwork I have ever seen. Having toured museum's all around the U.S. and Europe, especially the Louvre, Muse de Orsay and Georges Pompidou, I am still impressed with the raw emotions the works in this book draw out of you. The ability of Giger to draw out such base emotional response is emblematic of his success. The ability to revolt and captivate, to revile and entrance the viewer is a sign of a great artist. I find this work to be at a peer level of M.C. Escher, Salvador Dali & Auguste Rodin.	positive
0	not particularly useful	I bought this book specifically looking for a baby sling. Well, there IS a sling pattern, but it's really no good.All the other projects are pretty dated in fashion, and teh baby clothes don't seem like they would be easy to put on a baby! The best part was the baby shower decorations, very cute, and it told how to make prefold diapers, which was nice. (although it's not that hard to figure out!)I would buy an inexpensive pattern from the fabric store rather than this book.	negative
1	Excellent Book, but disturbing end.	The book had a great storyline. Bradbury draws you into the characters. Bradbury takes you on a series of events that the family goes through. The only flaw in the book was the ending. Other than that the book was great.	positive
1	So Far, So Good	I haven't used this one enough to know how it will hold up over time, but for now, it's far better than the craftsman I've been using...very responsive and lots of controllable power.	positive
0	Not very useful	As one other reviewer noted, I have several watches that have no notch on the back side...they are flat. I was hoping that this tool would do the trick. Unfortunately, the tip is pointed (difficult to tell in the photo), so it's basically a knife. I've used others in the past that have a square end that is rounded off, so there are no points. I think that this is important if you want to avoid scratching your watch. The only reason why I gave this product 2 stars instead of one is because I was successful in opening one of my watches. Of course, it's one that I don't care about much. Oh well, guess I'll have to take my other watches to a jeweler and pay the piper!!	negative
0	This was the turning point...	In my opinion, this is the second worst album that ICP as ever put out, second only to the Wraith:Shangri-La. The only good songs on the entire album are "Cherry Pie," which is a remake of "I Need A Freak," and "Crystal Ball" which features Twiztid. The hidden skits and songs are pretty funny, but the rest of the stuff if a pathetic attempt to sell out to the mainstream. If you're a die hard ICP fan, you will probably like this, but if you love music and have a brain of your own, then you will see this for what it is.	negative
0	Typical white boy pollution	Blues from new york? Uh, you get what you pay for. If you like amature white boy hour then this is the CD for you.	negative
0	Don't bother	Do yourself a favor and buy a Craig David cd instead. Craig does it much better. JC Chasez is simply pretending to have soul. Craig actually has soul.	negative
0	Try Again	How very important the subject matter; how very disappointing the outcome of this project. The first portion of the title is misleading. It is not a primer. There is absolutely no discussion of adoption, alternative means of starting a family, legal issues for gay men and lesbians, etc. There is a fair amount of information for lesbian couples, but even that is a warmed over rehash of self-help group discussions. This is not a book for a gay person longing to be a parent. One can only hope that someone else will move rapidly to fill the void this book only skirts.	negative
0	Not "Cables to Go", Not as pictured	Wish I read the reviews first, hope you do!These cables were shipped by MarginMart, Inc. and were NOT "Cables To Go", they did not even have the same type of snagless feature as shown in the picture!I would return them all if I didn't need them ASAP, as it is I will probably return whatever I don't use now.Given all that it probably is a suitable cable and shipping was fast.	negative
1	Excellent. Our stuff was dry all the time.	We bought four of this bag. The bag was very good. All of our stuff were dry after we went snorkeling.	positive
0	OEM Software	Despite the pictures and what is advertised on the Amazon website, the product sent by Fund-star is merely an envelope with a CD indicating OEM software, which is not transferable between computers and does not include the same level of technical support. Fund-star did refund my money once the CD was returned unopened, but if you are not looking for OEM software, avoid buying from this vendor.	negative
0	Not worth 7 dollars	I purchased this battery 2 weeks ago. It is worthless. I charged the battery for 8 hours before the first use and it lasted less than a day. I will try to return it. Do not buy this. Pay a little more money and get one that is worth it.	negative
1	MIKE's Florida review	I am planning a trip to a cold place and decided I would need boots to use while up north and they would also need to incorporate a steel toe. Since I would use them only occasionally I bought an inexpensive pair from Walmart but they were just that and had to return them. I found these and tried them on and they feel great, look good and go on easily. The true test will be in a few weeks but so far so good. Maybe they'll be a 5 star rating then.	positive
0	Aliens for everybody	In the future of man kind, the leprechaun has become something of a threat to human existence. He hijacks a space craft to catch a spoiled princess and kill some dumb jocks with guns. Their only hope is the ship's female doctor and any member of the crew with a brain. Starts off well for a space movie with a refreshingly calm performance by the leprechaun. But the whole film goes to hell fast as it fails to use anything new to keep our attention focused. The viewer is left pretty happy to see it end.	negative
0	I thought I had a disfunctional family	The book is billed as a story of a family who gets together for one last Christmas but we don't reach this point of the story until approximately 80 pages until the end of the book. Instead we are subjected to each family members life of dysfunction Thse people don't just have small every day problems like most people but huge big ones that they make all by themselves. Are they sympathetic in anyway that you would be able to empathize with them and hope they get through the problems? No, not even close. They actually deserve what they are going through. For these reason it was hard to get through the book. Sure, there are some good moments but nothing that I would care to tell anyone about.And to think this is going to be made into a movie and I can't see sitting through a humorless mess of dysfunction for two hours.Beware.	negative
0	Good sound, not so good quality	I've loved these headphones for the year or two I've had them. I still love them now.... when they work. The problem is that the cord is shoddy. When I plug into my laptop I have a hard time keeping it working. I have to twist the cord just right to get the sound to work. If its not just right I'll get sound in only one ear, if at all. I don't think this happened because of any handling issues seeing as how the base just sits on my desk. I don't think it has ever left my office and I don't tend to put items on top of the wire that might crush it. Overall I like these things, but I'm just getting sick of the sound phasing in and out when my laptop moves the slightest bit.	negative
0	Don't judge the book by the cover.	I read the first 4 chapters, find the book to be ridiculously repetitious and it appeared to me that the author's message was constantly and repeatedly "Corporate Portals are Good for You!".It is generally an acceptable concept that people who buy a book are already of the belief that the subject matter is either good, or good for them and are sold on the concept looking for supporting facts, strategies, tactics and implementation methods based on the authors expertise. Although this is not a negative review for Heidi's knowledge and ability in the field but it is definitely a very poor review of her writing style for a technical book. I abandoned reading the book after the first four chapters and put my time to better use.	negative
1	A truly wonderful movie	Please do not pay any serious attention to the Amazon editorial review above. The writer must have completely missed the filmic journey offered by this movie: its wonderful messages, unique presentation, and rich text and subtext. As a white, middle-class person, I found the film enchanting. Not only do we journey along with the grandson and grandfather, we are brought into a special way of filmmaking that thankfully deviates from standard Hollywood fare. This movie should be seen by all who have journeyed from adolescence to adulthood, as well as those just beginning their journeys. Please do not pass this film by. It is truly a treat. I don't know how this review will show my rating for this movie since the rating link wouldn't work for me, but I would give it the highest rating possible.	positive
0	Biased!	While this book may contain some good information on multicultrual education I find it difficult to get past the bias presented in it. Based on statements like"A crucial fact in understanding racism is that whites see themselves as superior to persons and groups of color, and as a result exercise their power to prevent people of color from securing the prestige, power, and privilege held by whites."and"Whites go through a developmental stages as they develop their racial identity and abandon racism."The authors seem to presume that all whites are racist, power hungry, pigs. Knowing that such a generalization is patently false how can I trust the content describing peoples of other cultural backgrounds.	negative
1	Solid Produce	This was the highest end HoMedics product. It is easy to use and see and appears to be both precise and accurate. I am pleased with the product, pricing, and shipment.	positive
0	Thumbs down..	Well... What can i say, its disposable music. The lyrics are lacking in any sense of intelect, Really doesnt give you anything to think about. The music is the same punky pop power chords riffed over, and over, and OVER. The songs are very repetative, and if you like music this band doesnt give much. Nothing very unique or special, which is probably why they are so underground... they dont deserve much else. Go pick up an album like Master of puppets, by metallica... its worth your money. Sugarcult is bottom of the barrel punk.	negative
0	good but not great, better products out there	I purchased this HydraBrush thinking it looked like it could clean better than my SonicCare, it does not. I used my HydraBrush for 4 months, had a dentist check up and the dental assistant said wow you are missing brushing quite a few areas. This was a shock to me because I thought I would have a steller appointment like always, especially since I had this new premium tooth brush. No this tooth brush caused me to miss certain teeth altogether. Also, the toothbrush just totally stopped working after 6 months of use. What a waste of money!	negative
1	A book I didn't want to put down...	This book was a journey, it took me to places in the heart I've never been but had been searching for most of my life. While I don't believe that there is just one specific "answer" in life, this book has been an open door to explore the possibilities of life, death, love and laughter. The healing tools of life are love and laughter, and the reminder that they are needed daily is ever present in the pages of this book, both on this earth and off. I will use this book often as a gentle but constant reminder of those that have left my side, but not my life.	positive
0	Do you smell sharks?	I was just curious what they would do to address Charlie Sheen leaving and I missed it on TV so I bought the episode here. Plus I heard there were going to be guest spots by other actors from Chuck Lorre shows.	negative
1	Must be good	I bought this product per my mom's request (she doesn't use the internet) anyways...she really likes it for indoor tanning. I think you can't beat the price!	positive
0	Don't waste your money	I picked this up on clearance, but I still think I spent too much. The older versions were made of much sturdier material; the cards the questions are printed on are very flimsy compared to the original game. The questions are okay, but many are very obscure. Trivial Pursuit is a great game and it's one of my favorites, but this version is a dud. Save your money if you have the older version; it's still a lot more fun to play.	negative
1	The Incredible hulk the complete series.	This is a great price for this set,and none of the many Dvds where scratched which is rare on multi DVD sets, Highly recommended!	positive
0	Arrived defective	the unit arrived broken, I am seeking a credit from the vendor, I have asked for credit, but have yet to get confirmation from the vendor	negative
1	Ice Cream Like a Dream	According to my wife, this is "the best birthday present ever". It's fast, quiet, and the electric motor takes all the drudge (admittedly some consider rock salt and cranks to be fun) out of home made ice cream. Just make a spot in you're freezer for the freezing cylinder and you're set - probably for life.	positive
1	Un album magnifique de Nana	Nana est la meilleure chanteuse du monde avec und voix merveilleuse et la capacite de chanter veritablement bien dans n'importe quelle langue. Ceci est le CD re-edition d'un album qui est, peut etre, le meilleur que Nana enregistra dans l'etiquette Fontana, en 1969, tot dans sa carriere.	positive
1	from a Venice lover	I anxiously awaited this book because The Garden of Good & Evil was a blast and had such a wonderful flow. This one feels a little clumsier and contrived but since Venice is one of my favorite cities, it kept my interest. I'm giving it a four because I consider Berendt a fine writer but wish he had cooked up a jucier plot.	positive
1	Collectors	The writer has done an excellent job writing those books, because you can read them as a series but you can also start in the middle, with second, or thirth book of the series. I am fascinating about the writer's knowledge about plants and use of them, but especially in the ability of making you fill like you were part of action.	positive
1	Great steamer	This is a great electric steamer. I use it weekly. Sometimes three to five times a week. Hope it lasts the rest of my life. Easy to clean and stores nicely.	positive
1	THE TRUTH ABOUT ROB BELl!!!!!!!	Haven't read the book yet, but I was highly disappointed with the author's picture on the back cover. Rob Bell is WAY hotter with his hair buzzed. Times are a changin' people- get with the program.	positive
1	Best Live album of the 80's	When first I saw this LP I liked the idea of the name of the LP & the cover which have some pics releated to the songs War Pigs, Children of the Sea, Iron man & Pranoid etc., good selection from Sabbath's best songs: Mob Rules, Paranoid, Voodoo, Children of the Grave, Heaven & Hell & War Pigs which I think is very unique as it's been sang by the awesome DIO.	positive
1	Vivid descriptions and fast moving plot	Although it has been some time since I read this story, its vivid descriptions have stayed with me. The author does a marvelous job of describing the Southern California beach city setting, so much so that while driving on Sepulvida two months ago, I saw a drab three-story stucco commercial building and simply knew that it must be the building that houses the call-center. Also typically Southern Californian, the car chase contained endless minutes at a jam-packed intersection with the driver cursing himself for chosing the wrong route.Overall, Hotline is an entertaining story that keeps the pages turning.	positive
1	FINALLY!!!	I have been waiting for what seems like ages for this DVD to be released!!! Golden Girls is my most favorite television show! Cant wait to have the first season to watch over and over again! Rock on!!!	positive
0	UGH !!!!!	I think that this book had a few redeeming moments, as with the landscape descriptions but mostly it just droned on and on and on. I couldn't wait for it to finally end and be out out of my misery. Floretino Ariza made me uncomfortable, he was a stalker and had several mental health issues.I would not recommend this book to anyone.	negative
0	Bad, Bad, Bad	Bad. That's it. I saw this movie when released in the theatres....I was excited that there was a sequal. But, was totally confused and disappointed when walking out. I had never seen such a piece of .... This is unbelieveably bad. I even bought the renegade DVD version to, hopefully, get some sense out of it. The only good thing on the DVD is the excuses by the director for how bad the movie was. BAD.	negative
1	Still working!	I bought this in 2004. Eight years later it's still going strong. Easy to use and doesn't damaged the bottle cap too much.	positive
0	Not even close to the wire	After paying good money for a new copy of this book, I felt downright gypped. Page after page is filled with stodgy writing and tedious information that reads like a compilation of disconnected facts, records and quotes rather than a continuous story. The many obvious factual mistakes that litter the pages also add to the feeling that this is the product of a writer whose main concern was quantity rather than quality; the product of a writer who was counting on the subject matter rather than the writing to be the main draw. Not recommended.	negative
0	Not a suitable textbook	After experiencing a semester long course with this book, I have come to the conclusion that this book must be avoided at all costs for Computer Science and possibly even Math majors. The book assumes a significant level of Mathematical background but does attempt to communicate the requirements in the the preface. Also, the book contains numerous errors in definitions and algorithms. Furthermore, these errors tend occur in the introduction of critical concepts. Mathematical proofs are haphazard with inadequate explaination of proof techniques. The book also contains numerous gramatical errors which makes deciphering the book significantly more laborious (ambiguity abounds). Finally, this book attempts the impossible: seperating mathematical concepts from mathematics.	negative
0	only for beginners	I have been doing yoga for a few years now, and was looking for something that was a great workout, yet avoided positions that were beginning to feel uncomfortable or unsafe (like the bow pose, deep twists). I'd consider myself an intermediate at yoga, but this was way too easy. It did show some useful modifications to accomidate my growing belly, but that was the limit of its usefulness. The overabundance of leg lifts and kegels also were annoying. I don't need a yoga tape to do those. (they aren't even yoga moves!). But having sampled several pregnancy yoga workouts (this being the worst one), I have come to the conclusion that no one will endorse a vigorous workout for pregnancy. Maybe they're too afraid of liability, I don't know. Just do your regular yoga routine, don't do anything that puts pressure on your belly, and modify everything else however you can to make it more comfortable. (any yoga DVD can help you with this part)	negative
1	Start Your Morning With Creative Ideas	The Norpro Flower and Star shaped pancake/egg rings are a 'fun' way to start the day...especially with children and grandchildren. The kids really love it! I recommend this product!!!	positive
1	GREAT PRODUCT	These were great crackers. If you have stomach issues due to seeds, I would not recommend ordering these as there are a lot of seeds on them. Taste was great and would recommend them to all!!	positive
1	A triumph of brain for braun	Matt Braun has a reputation here in the UK for writing 'faction' westerns where he novelises historical fact. This book is a fine companion piece to his "Doc Holliday", being a fictional account, based on recorded history, of the cowboys v lawmen conflict in 1880s Arizona climaxing with the deadly shootout at the OK Corral and its bloody aftermath. The book is very close to truth but also a fine piece of writing - a good read which brings each scene to life and has good believable dialogue. Highly recommended.	positive
0	That's not Santa in that red suit	This is what happens when you buy an entire series before knowing whether or not any of them are worth viewing (never mind keeping for future viewings). As punishment, I watched all three Pulse movies in a row and felt deservedly chastised as a result. It wasn't just the matter of the money that I wasted, it was the time lost on such a dreary series.As for this film, it went from the global realization of the first film to a simple family melodrama complete with a cheating ex-husband, his mistress, his ex-wife, and a daughter caught in the middle. While I appreciated the attempt to personalize the issue, the problem remains the same; if you don't find the original premise valid, going smaller with the story isn't going to help. It's still a silly idea and a sillier solution (hiding out in "dead zones"). Not even the novelty of filming it from the perspective of some of the ghosts could save this tedious effort.	negative
0	Unfinishable	I bought this DVD at the "99 Cents" Store, I was hoping my kids and I would get a few laughs ... An Adam Richman Food Challenge would be easier to finish than this movie! ... save the 99 cents!	negative
0	Missed the mark	Interesting reading. I enjoyed the content but this is not what you want to base a campaign or business plan on. I get the impression it was written by people who have never had a real day-in-day-out job. For example, the myth about the cost of obtaining new customers--way over simplified and wrong in many places.In short, a lot of fluff no substance.	negative
0	dangerous	I gave this product a 1 because in the short time I've owned it and after the few times I used it the darn thing didn't shut off. It got so hot the cover melted to the base and would not come off. I had to throw the whole unit away. It was very dangerous and actually could have started a fire!I've had several egg cookers in the pass and none of them did this including the cheaper ones.thanks	negative
0	Definitely not worth the money!	After reading the five star review that is on this site, I couldn't wait to read this book. As an already accomplished professional contemplating a return to medical school, I thought that this book would give me the information I needed in order to start off on the right foot. Unfortunately, this was not the case.This book is nothing more than a series of interviews with non-traditional students who have matriculated at Northwestern. I found the information included to be confusing and quite often contradictory. To be honest, I have found more useful information in the general information guides which are written for your standard college student.	negative
1	Great Product	Fill'er up and light the newspaper at the bottom and 15 min. later the charcoal was ready to go, just one recomendation: place an equal amount of charcoal on your grill before you pour in the lit charcoal, thats if you have a large grill 18" or larger.	positive
0	I will never watch this again....	As a lover of many types of music, this movie sparked my interest....so I rented it. I found myself thinking throughout the movie "I can't believe I'm actually watching this. What a waste!" Not only was the plot slow to the point of boring, but the film exalted lesbianism to the point that I (as a grown woman) actually fast-forwarded through a couple of scenes. The small amount of goodness in the movie was not worth all of the disappointing twists and turns of the story. Also, please carefully consider before allowing children to watch!! I will NEVER, under any circumstances watch this movie again. (I want the reader to know that I am in no way a movie critic. I am writing this strictly as someone who wishes to steer others away from what I found to be a complete waste of an evening.)	negative
0	Will entertain...the first time you watch it.	I watched this when it opened, and I thought it was ok. But a couple weeks later, I watched again. I was a little dissapointed to find that the jokes weren't THAT funny, and the acting wasn't THAT great. I also realized my favorite parts from the book hadn't made the cut into the movie and the scenes were all out of order. Although Alfonso Cuarón did a nice job of piecing the scenes together. I wouldn't recommend buying this movie, but instead renting it IF you haven't seen it before.	negative

0	huge dissappointment for fans of the first 2	This movie shouldn't be called The Godfather part 3 because the main characters are completely unrecognizable from the first 2. The most complelling aspect of the first two movies was how a very intelligent Michael evolved from a bright eyed bushy tailed kid to a suspicious ruthless man capable of murdering his own brother and how the sins of his father doomed him to this fate. In part 3, without explaination Michael is suddenly a redemption seeking softy wanting to make peace with his enemies and Connie of all people becomes the hawk of the family. The movie would have been better if it had been about how they made this evolution so as to connect it to the first two movies. Throw in the Vatican and Coppola's daughter and it's just too much to swallow.	negative

1	First Electric Shaver	This was the first time I have owned an electric shaver. I researched the field pretty well and read various reviews. Because I take blood thinners I was suggested that I go from blade shaving to electric shavers.I am very pleased with the Norelco arcitec shaver. I had no problem with adjustment and had no skin irritation at all. The shave is almost as close as a blade shave. The battery has lasted through about six shaves so far and doesn't seem to be losing power. It cleans up easily under the tap. I'm very happy I made the decision to go with this product.UPDATE: I had to return the product as after about two weeks my skin started to get very irritated, especially if I tried to get a close shave. For people who use electric razors regularly they probably would not have this problem.	positive
1	Good if lightweight. Some great moments	This is indeed no Crowded House nor even Split Enz album but it's very pleasant to listen to, and some of the songs have some great melodies. 'Only Talking Sense' is a good example: melodic, slightly off-beat, hinting at a darker side but not really exploring it. It's a bit like a good Chinese meal: much more interesting than most anything else but later on you don't feel satisfied. I wonder if the inevitable multi-tracking when two people do everything has lost some of the cohesiveness of a performance sound. Worth having and very enjoyable, but not quite great.	positive

Unfortunately this book has hardly been changed from its original edition and I believe that there should be some sort of disclaimer.

Everything looked fine and the card seemed to be connecting to the access point but my speed never went over 1 Mbps. I use WEP security in my home network.After 3-4 frustrating hours I had to go back to my 5 year old Lucent Orinoco 802.11b card.

0	Totally useless!	Everything about this book, from phone numbers to accommodation reviews, has been almost laughably wrong. I've never felt compelled to write a review on amazon before, but this book has been so inaccurate I think I should warn people. The only reason anyone should buy this book is to do the exact OPPOSITE of whatever it says. I doubt this author has even been to the places she writes about, that's how consistently wrong this book is. It is impossible to locate a copyright date, and they probably did that on purpose, considering many places have closed and info is obviously outdated. I understand that some places change over time, but I've given this book a chance in 10 different places throughout Argentina and the advice here has failed miserably.	negative
0	This book stinks!!!	Sure you can learn a few things from this book, but you have to buy a ton of stuff from Big Al in order to get the 'complete picture'. Each of his book is a like an informercial of sort - to get you to buy more stuff from him, newsletter, CDs, seminars, etc., etc.	negative
0	Disappointing	The book was for my wife and I did not read it. She said the book was disappointing, and it seemed to be obsessed with SEX. Too much emphasis put on sexual encounters and the book was not worth the time it took to read it.	negative

Fabulous Versatile Baby Carrier!

I got a hotsling after my baby was too heavy to use the Bjorn. You can use the hotsling in several different positions, and they are SO comfy, even with my 25lb toddler! I used mine with my daughter even when she was two years old and I was five months pregnant. I cannot say enough good things about this sling. It is beautiful and well made.With a little practice it is second nature to use it! I highly recommend checking some babywearing sites online for advice and help using it if you are having trouble. It is worth it to carry my baby comfortably hands free!

Not her best effort by far

As a fan of this series, I found this work extremely disappointing. It reads more like a short story than a novel; barest outlines of events and characters, some outright errors in continuity within the book's lesser characters, lack of the usual careful filling in of local (historically accurate?) color. Truthfully, not worth reading as it adds nothing to the series and is cetainly a poor example of Ms. Peter's work. I sincerely hope she doesn't continue in this vein with this series, which previously was one of the best. If so, she will lose a great segment of her audience.

She Contributed Something That Was Truly Hers

Contribution is not one of her strongest suits of music, but she showed the world that she got what it takes to tackle something that she holds dear to her. She sang a Prince song that showcased her dark smoky vocals as enticing. With the vocal backing of Cindy Mizelle, she and Mica (along with eleven others, including Will Downing) made the song hers. South Of The River is one of my faves. Truth And Honesty, Just To Be With You, Contribution and the remake of Smokey Robinson's More Love are good songs. Contribution is not an A effort, but she gets a C- for trying.

Tries Too Hard to be Cool

I guess I just don't get it. While attempting to read this I never was sure if at any particular moment the author was using metaphors or being literal in his storytelling. I am a voracious reader of sci-fi, horror, and fantasy, and I really wanted to enjoy this book and tried hard to finish it but couldn't get much further than half way. I got the impression that Mamatas was trying to be cool just for the sake of being cool - way too full of himself. Reminded me a lot of Tarantino's style of film making, which I often enjoy, but does sometimes get to be annoying. In this case, Mamatas style was pretty much continuously annoying to me

Passport to Boredom

As someone who has followed the Olsen's work for many years, I must say that Passport to Paris made me weep. My tears were not of joy but were, rather, of mourning. Mourning for a bygone era to which I had nary a chance to say "goodbye." Goodbye to the sweet, sensitive protrayals of pre-pubescent siblings whose surpisingly complex characters were beautifully interwoven into simple and yet poignant storylines. Hello to a new breed of Olsen - an Olsen who would rather quickly coast through a predictable plot and grab her paycheck on the way out the door. When did this all get so commercial? Needless to say, Passport to Paris will not be the vehicle to bring the Olsen's their long-overdue Oscar nomination. But it is the perfect vehicle to expose Mary Kate and Ashley for what they've become: Sell-outs to corporate greed who put money ahead of their artistic values. Shame on the Olsens!

Remote worked, my idea didn't

I ordered 2 of these and they were delivered, on time and together. They both worked properly. I did return them as my idea for them wouldn't work. I wanted to leave them in vehicles that I sometimes have to park outside, so anyone breaking into the vehicle would be unable to merely push a button and open the garage. The problem is that only 1 at a time of the these keypads can be programmed to operate the same garage door opener. I would program one keypad opener and get it to work, but when I went to program the 2nd keypad opener for the same garage door it would work, but it would wipe out the first keypad code from working. I tried many different ways to do this and even asked the company for advice.I contacted the company fairly easily and told them of my situation. I was informed that my idea would not work. The company explained how I could return them and my account was credited, less the $10 restocking fee when they received them.

I am returning the HarperCollins Large Print edition of Pride and Prejudice because the PRINT IS TOO SMALL for a Large Print book.

Irritatingly Written But Hard to Argue With

Rick Hess argues from Scripture that Christian couples should not use birth control but trust their sovereign God to bless them with the number of children He will. Hess could have benefitted from having someone else actually write this book for him because his sarcastic tone reveals someone who is reacting to the wrong attitudes in our culture. It's irritating to find such good thoughts presented in so unpersuasive a style. Still, this is a perspective on family that Christians ought to think about. Read Hess's book with your Bible nearby, so you can read the verses he quotes in their original context.

One of the best RPGs I've played in years

Although I had never heard of the game, I bought it anyway to see what it was like, as I was running out good RPGs to play. I was amazed at how involved I got with this game! The story, the heroes, the villians, I loved every moment of it. It brought back memories of classic RPGs where you round the corner and are completely surpised by what happens next. Most RPGs being produced at the moment follow the generic formula and don't differ from one another that much except for character designs and bland storylines. After completing this game, I await Konami's follow ups to the series, even if I have to get the PS2.

I won't buy another Trager product

I loved my first trager backpack. After many years of use it eventually came apart at the seams. I liked it so much, that I bought another. The same thing happened, the seams came apart, but this time it happened almost immediately. I contacted Trager and they asked me to send it in for repair or replacement. I did this. Then I NEVER heard back from them again. I have emailed, called and left VMs and tried everything. They have never responded to me. I now have to buy something else as I have been without the bag I was using every day. I will not buy another Trager product.

Amazing - Disturbing - Appalling and beautiful

This is the train wreck of artwork. Filled with disturbing and graphic images that are so intricately detailed you can spend hours on a single image and not see everything.This book is based on H.P. Lovecraft's fictional creation the Necromicon, is still a collection of some of the most masterful artwork I have ever seen. Having toured museum's all around the U.S. and Europe, especially the Louvre, Muse de Orsay and Georges Pompidou, I am still impressed with the raw emotions the works in this book draw out of you. The ability of Giger to draw out such base emotional response is emblematic of his success. The ability to revolt and captivate, to revile and entrance the viewer is a sign of a great artist. I find this work to be at a peer level of M.C. Escher, Salvador Dali & Auguste Rodin.

not particularly useful

I bought this book specifically looking for a baby sling. Well, there IS a sling pattern, but it's really no good.All the other projects are pretty dated in fashion, and teh baby clothes don't seem like they would be easy to put on a baby! The best part was the baby shower decorations, very cute, and it told how to make prefold diapers, which was nice. (although it's not that hard to figure out!)I would buy an inexpensive pattern from the fabric store rather than this book.

Not very useful

As one other reviewer noted, I have several watches that have no notch on the back side...they are flat. I was hoping that this tool would do the trick. Unfortunately, the tip is pointed (difficult to tell in the photo), so it's basically a knife. I've used others in the past that have a square end that is rounded off, so there are no points. I think that this is important if you want to avoid scratching your watch. The only reason why I gave this product 2 stars instead of one is because I was successful in opening one of my watches. Of course, it's one that I don't care about much. Oh well, guess I'll have to take my other watches to a jeweler and pay the piper!!

This was the turning point...

In my opinion, this is the second worst album that ICP as ever put out, second only to the Wraith:Shangri-La. The only good songs on the entire album are "Cherry Pie," which is a remake of "I Need A Freak," and "Crystal Ball" which features Twiztid. The hidden skits and songs are pretty funny, but the rest of the stuff if a pathetic attempt to sell out to the mainstream. If you're a die hard ICP fan, you will probably like this, but if you love music and have a brain of your own, then you will see this for what it is.

Try Again

How very important the subject matter; how very disappointing the outcome of this project. The first portion of the title is misleading. It is not a primer. There is absolutely no discussion of adoption, alternative means of starting a family, legal issues for gay men and lesbians, etc. There is a fair amount of information for lesbian couples, but even that is a warmed over rehash of self-help group discussions. This is not a book for a gay person longing to be a parent. One can only hope that someone else will move rapidly to fill the void this book only skirts.

Aliens for everybody

In the future of man kind, the leprechaun has become something of a threat to human existence. He hijacks a space craft to catch a spoiled princess and kill some dumb jocks with guns. Their only hope is the ship's female doctor and any member of the crew with a brain. Starts off well for a space movie with a refreshingly calm performance by the leprechaun. But the whole film goes to hell fast as it fails to use anything new to keep our attention focused. The viewer is left pretty happy to see it end.

I thought I had a disfunctional family

The book is billed as a story of a family who gets together for one last Christmas but we don't reach this point of the story until approximately 80 pages until the end of the book. Instead we are subjected to each family members life of dysfunction Thse people don't just have small every day problems like most people but huge big ones that they make all by themselves. Are they sympathetic in anyway that you would be able to empathize with them and hope they get through the problems? No, not even close. They actually deserve what they are going through. For these reason it was hard to get through the book. Sure, there are some good moments but nothing that I would care to tell anyone about.And to think this is going to be made into a movie and I can't see sitting through a humorless mess of dysfunction for two hours.Beware.

Good sound, not so good quality

I've loved these headphones for the year or two I've had them. I still love them now.... when they work. The problem is that the cord is shoddy. When I plug into my laptop I have a hard time keeping it working. I have to twist the cord just right to get the sound to work. If its not just right I'll get sound in only one ear, if at all. I don't think this happened because of any handling issues seeing as how the base just sits on my desk. I don't think it has ever left my office and I don't tend to put items on top of the wire that might crush it. Overall I like these things, but I'm just getting sick of the sound phasing in and out when my laptop moves the slightest bit.

Don't judge the book by the cover.

I read the first 4 chapters, find the book to be ridiculously repetitious and it appeared to me that the author's message was constantly and repeatedly "Corporate Portals are Good for You!".It is generally an acceptable concept that people who buy a book are already of the belief that the subject matter is either good, or good for them and are sold on the concept looking for supporting facts, strategies, tactics and implementation methods based on the authors expertise. Although this is not a negative review for Heidi's knowledge and ability in the field but it is definitely a very poor review of her writing style for a technical book. I abandoned reading the book after the first four chapters and put my time to better use.

A truly wonderful movie

Please do not pay any serious attention to the Amazon editorial review above. The writer must have completely missed the filmic journey offered by this movie: its wonderful messages, unique presentation, and rich text and subtext. As a white, middle-class person, I found the film enchanting. Not only do we journey along with the grandson and grandfather, we are brought into a special way of filmmaking that thankfully deviates from standard Hollywood fare. This movie should be seen by all who have journeyed from adolescence to adulthood, as well as those just beginning their journeys. Please do not pass this film by. It is truly a treat. I don't know how this review will show my rating for this movie since the rating link wouldn't work for me, but I would give it the highest rating possible.

Based on statements like"A crucial fact in understanding racism is that whites see themselves as superior to persons and groups of color, and as a result exercise their power to prevent people of color from securing the prestige, power, and privilege held by whites."and"Whites go through a developmental stages as they develop their racial identity and abandon racism."The authors seem to presume that all whites are racist, power hungry, pigs. Knowing that such a generalization is patently false how can I trust the content describing peoples of other cultural backgrounds.

Thumbs down..

Well... What can i say, its disposable music. The lyrics are lacking in any sense of intelect, Really doesnt give you anything to think about. The music is the same punky pop power chords riffed over, and over, and OVER. The songs are very repetative, and if you like music this band doesnt give much. Nothing very unique or special, which is probably why they are so underground... they dont deserve much else. Go pick up an album like Master of puppets, by metallica... its worth your money. Sugarcult is bottom of the barrel punk.

good but not great, better products out there

I purchased this HydraBrush thinking it looked like it could clean better than my SonicCare, it does not. I used my HydraBrush for 4 months, had a dentist check up and the dental assistant said wow you are missing brushing quite a few areas. This was a shock to me because I thought I would have a steller appointment like always, especially since I had this new premium tooth brush. No this tooth brush caused me to miss certain teeth altogether. Also, the toothbrush just totally stopped working after 6 months of use. What a waste of money!

A book I didn't want to put down...

This book was a journey, it took me to places in the heart I've never been but had been searching for most of my life. While I don't believe that there is just one specific "answer" in life, this book has been an open door to explore the possibilities of life, death, love and laughter. The healing tools of life are love and laughter, and the reminder that they are needed daily is ever present in the pages of this book, both on this earth and off. I will use this book often as a gentle but constant reminder of those that have left my side, but not my life.

Don't waste your money

I picked this up on clearance, but I still think I spent too much. The older versions were made of much sturdier material; the cards the questions are printed on are very flimsy compared to the original game. The questions are okay, but many are very obscure. Trivial Pursuit is a great game and it's one of my favorites, but this version is a dud. Save your money if you have the older version; it's still a lot more fun to play.

Ice Cream Like a Dream

According to my wife, this is "the best birthday present ever". It's fast, quiet, and the electric motor takes all the drudge (admittedly some consider rock salt and cranks to be fun) out of home made ice cream. Just make a spot in you're freezer for the freezing cylinder and you're set - probably for life.

from a Venice lover

I anxiously awaited this book because The Garden of Good & Evil was a blast and had such a wonderful flow. This one feels a little clumsier and contrived but since Venice is one of my favorite cities, it kept my interest. I'm giving it a four because I consider Berendt a fine writer but wish he had cooked up a jucier plot.

Collectors

The writer has done an excellent job writing those books, because you can read them as a series but you can also start in the middle, with second, or thirth book of the series. I am fascinating about the writer's knowledge about plants and use of them, but especially in the ability of making you fill like you were part of action.

Best Live album of the 80's

When first I saw this LP I liked the idea of the name of the LP & the cover which have some pics releated to the songs War Pigs, Children of the Sea, Iron man & Pranoid etc., good selection from Sabbath's best songs: Mob Rules, Paranoid, Voodoo, Children of the Grave, Heaven & Hell & War Pigs which I think is very unique as it's been sang by the awesome DIO.

Vivid descriptions and fast moving plot

Although it has been some time since I read this story, its vivid descriptions have stayed with me. The author does a marvelous job of describing the Southern California beach city setting, so much so that while driving on Sepulvida two months ago, I saw a drab three-story stucco commercial building and simply knew that it must be the building that houses the call-center. Also typically Southern Californian, the car chase contained endless minutes at a jam-packed intersection with the driver cursing himself for chosing the wrong route.Overall, Hotline is an entertaining story that keeps the pages turning.

Not even close to the wire

After paying good money for a new copy of this book, I felt downright gypped. Page after page is filled with stodgy writing and tedious information that reads like a compilation of disconnected facts, records and quotes rather than a continuous story. The many obvious factual mistakes that litter the pages also add to the feeling that this is the product of a writer whose main concern was quantity rather than quality; the product of a writer who was counting on the subject matter rather than the writing to be the main draw. Not recommended.

Not a suitable textbook

After experiencing a semester long course with this book, I have come to the conclusion that this book must be avoided at all costs for Computer Science and possibly even Math majors. The book assumes a significant level of Mathematical background but does attempt to communicate the requirements in the the preface. Also, the book contains numerous errors in definitions and algorithms. Furthermore, these errors tend occur in the introduction of critical concepts. Mathematical proofs are haphazard with inadequate explaination of proof techniques. The book also contains numerous gramatical errors which makes deciphering the book significantly more laborious (ambiguity abounds). Finally, this book attempts the impossible: seperating mathematical concepts from mathematics.

only for beginners

I have been doing yoga for a few years now, and was looking for something that was a great workout, yet avoided positions that were beginning to feel uncomfortable or unsafe (like the bow pose, deep twists). I'd consider myself an intermediate at yoga, but this was way too easy. It did show some useful modifications to accomidate my growing belly, but that was the limit of its usefulness. The overabundance of leg lifts and kegels also were annoying. I don't need a yoga tape to do those. (they aren't even yoga moves!). But having sampled several pregnancy yoga workouts (this being the worst one), I have come to the conclusion that no one will endorse a vigorous workout for pregnancy. Maybe they're too afraid of liability, I don't know. Just do your regular yoga routine, don't do anything that puts pressure on your belly, and modify everything else however you can to make it more comfortable. (any yoga DVD can help you with this part)

A triumph of brain for braun

Matt Braun has a reputation here in the UK for writing 'faction' westerns where he novelises historical fact. This book is a fine companion piece to his "Doc Holliday", being a fictional account, based on recorded history, of the cowboys v lawmen conflict in 1880s Arizona climaxing with the deadly shootout at the OK Corral and its bloody aftermath. The book is very close to truth but also a fine piece of writing - a good read which brings each scene to life and has good believable dialogue. Highly recommended.

That's not Santa in that red suit

This is what happens when you buy an entire series before knowing whether or not any of them are worth viewing (never mind keeping for future viewings). As punishment, I watched all three Pulse movies in a row and felt deservedly chastised as a result. It wasn't just the matter of the money that I wasted, it was the time lost on such a dreary series.As for this film, it went from the global realization of the first film to a simple family melodrama complete with a cheating ex-husband, his mistress, his ex-wife, and a daughter caught in the middle. While I appreciated the attempt to personalize the issue, the problem remains the same; if you don't find the original premise valid, going smaller with the story isn't going to help. It's still a silly idea and a sillier solution (hiding out in "dead zones"). Not even the novelty of filming it from the perspective of some of the ghosts could save this tedious effort.

Missed the mark

Interesting reading. I enjoyed the content but this is not what you want to base a campaign or business plan on. I get the impression it was written by people who have never had a real day-in-day-out job. For example, the myth about the cost of obtaining new customers--way over simplified and wrong in many places.In short, a lot of fluff no substance.

Definitely not worth the money!

After reading the five star review that is on this site, I couldn't wait to read this book. As an already accomplished professional contemplating a return to medical school, I thought that this book would give me the information I needed in order to start off on the right foot. Unfortunately, this was not the case.This book is nothing more than a series of interviews with non-traditional students who have matriculated at Northwestern. I found the information included to be confusing and quite often contradictory. To be honest, I have found more useful information in the general information guides which are written for your standard college student.

I will never watch this again....

As a lover of many types of music, this movie sparked my interest....so I rented it. I found myself thinking throughout the movie "I can't believe I'm actually watching this. What a waste!" Not only was the plot slow to the point of boring, but the film exalted lesbianism to the point that I (as a grown woman) actually fast-forwarded through a couple of scenes. The small amount of goodness in the movie was not worth all of the disappointing twists and turns of the story. Also, please carefully consider before allowing children to watch!! I will NEVER, under any circumstances watch this movie again. (I want the reader to know that I am in no way a movie critic. I am writing this strictly as someone who wishes to steer others away from what I found to be a complete waste of an evening.)

Will entertain...the first time you watch it.

I watched this when it opened, and I thought it was ok. But a couple weeks later, I watched again. I was a little dissapointed to find that the jokes weren't THAT funny, and the acting wasn't THAT great. I also realized my favorite parts from the book hadn't made the cut into the movie and the scenes were all out of order. Although Alfonso Cuarón did a nice job of piecing the scenes together. I wouldn't recommend buying this movie, but instead renting it IF you haven't seen it before.

huge dissappointment for fans of the first 2

This movie shouldn't be called The Godfather part 3 because the main characters are completely unrecognizable from the first 2. The most complelling aspect of the first two movies was how a very intelligent Michael evolved from a bright eyed bushy tailed kid to a suspicious ruthless man capable of murdering his own brother and how the sins of his father doomed him to this fate. In part 3, without explaination Michael is suddenly a redemption seeking softy wanting to make peace with his enemies and Connie of all people becomes the hawk of the family. The movie would have been better if it had been about how they made this evolution so as to connect it to the first two movies. Throw in the Vatican and Coppola's daughter and it's just too much to swallow.

First Electric Shaver

This was the first time I have owned an electric shaver. I researched the field pretty well and read various reviews. Because I take blood thinners I was suggested that I go from blade shaving to electric shavers.I am very pleased with the Norelco arcitec shaver. I had no problem with adjustment and had no skin irritation at all. The shave is almost as close as a blade shave. The battery has lasted through about six shaves so far and doesn't seem to be losing power. It cleans up easily under the tap. I'm very happy I made the decision to go with this product.UPDATE: I had to return the product as after about two weeks my skin started to get very irritated, especially if I tried to get a close shave. For people who use electric razors regularly they probably would not have this problem.

Good if lightweight. Some great moments

This is indeed no Crowded House nor even Split Enz album but it's very pleasant to listen to, and some of the songs have some great melodies. 'Only Talking Sense' is a good example: melodic, slightly off-beat, hinting at a darker side but not really exploring it. It's a bit like a good Chinese meal: much more interesting than most anything else but later on you don't feel satisfied. I wonder if the inevitable multi-tracking when two people do everything has lost some of the cohesiveness of a performance sound. Worth having and very enjoyable, but not quite great.

If you haven't read his other books, read this. Otherwise skip it!

Like a couple of other reviewers I had read the original Five Love Languages. It is insightful and has helped me and my wife communicate much more effectively. If you haven't read that, then by all means buy this book. Unfortunately this book has hardly been changed from its original edition and I believe that there should be some sort of disclaimer. Luckily Amazon accepted the return (I purchased the Kindle edition) as I reported this to them within a day of purchase.

The worst wireless card ever

I spent 3-4 hours trying to make this card work but it never went beyond 1 Mbps even when I was sitting 1 foot away from the wireless access point. Very disappointing.I have a Thinkpad that runs Win XP Home. I plugged this card in and installed the driver utility from the CD. Everything looked fine and the card seemed to be connecting to the access point but my speed never went over 1 Mbps. I use WEP security in my home network.After 3-4 frustrating hours I had to go back to my 5 year old Lucent Orinoco 802.11b card. With the Lucent card I was up and running in 10 seconds.My advice, spend a few extra dollars and buy Netgear, Linksys or any of the other well-known brands.

Totally useless!

Everything about this book, from phone numbers to accommodation reviews, has been almost laughably wrong. I've never felt compelled to write a review on amazon before, but this book has been so inaccurate I think I should warn people. The only reason anyone should buy this book is to do the exact OPPOSITE of whatever it says. I doubt this author has even been to the places she writes about, that's how consistently wrong this book is. It is impossible to locate a copyright date, and they probably did that on purpose, considering many places have closed and info is obviously outdated. I understand that some places change over time, but I've given this book a chance in 10 different places throughout Argentina and the advice here has failed miserably.
