No Blu-Ray?
Ok, I am not spending money on this DVD Set because there must be a Blu-Ray version of this right around the corner which they are not telling us about.My wife and I love the Flintstones but, we are both disappointed the Blu-Ray version did not come out the same time as the regular DVD version did.We are saving our money on this one and will wait for the Blu-Ray version.Oh, the Flintstones get 5 Stars. 1 Star is for the DVD version.

why all the bad reviews?
It's a quiet but intense movie showing the spread of a killer virus with what seems like realism. The infection spreads at a believable rate with consequences that are predictable but understated. The science aspect was fascinating as well as the bureaucratic maneuvering you'd expect in government agencies dealing with an epidemic. Mostly it is a study of how various people respond to the spread of the disease. Not the action/science fiction you might expect from the title, more of a science/drama taking place on the set of a PBS documentary. Great performances, amazing direction. And it was fun to see Demitri Martin in a serious role.

Love John Sandford and "Lucas Davenport"
What I hate most about reading John Sandford's Prey books are the ending! It takes forever for a new one. Can he write faster? I think this series just gets better each time. Is it too early to wonder when the next "chapter" of Lucas' life will be written.

Interesting watch
This is a nice animated movie but nothing more. Tries to be a bit scary at times. A child of poor parents fantasizes about nice meals, clothes and such. As a result, she is drawn more and more into this fantasy world. She will escape and will return to her real parents.

Excellent system for the price
It was very easy to put together and takes up minimum space. However, the sound is not minimal and is great for my needs. I particularly like the equalizer for both my pop and classical music. The radio, with the antenna, has great sound with little static. The cd player is great for my needs; easy to play just one cd or the entire deck.My only quibble is that it has a single cassette deck and is not auto reversible. But that's a small price for having a system with great sound.Instruction book, as most books are, could use a little ironing out but I was able to get started and if you have set up a shelf system before, this should be a breeze. If you haven't set one up before, you should have no trouble.

Avoid it!
I had a totally bad experience with this router. I never got it to work. And Linksys tech support was flakey when reachable, but generally not reachable. They have multiple web addresses allegedly available to support this product (why not just one?) and all of them were useless.All I can say is: 1) Avoid this product. 2) Thank goodness for Amazon's convenient return policy.

Easier With Practice
Kyle Patrick Alvarez' directorial debut, 'Easier with Practice' is an incredible milestone for such a young director. It is a must-see Indie film for everyone. Insightful love story full of humor, sadness, laughter, twists and turns. Based on a true story on the life of writer Davy Rothbart while on the road promoting his short stories. No wonder Alvarez won 'New Director, Someone to Watch', at the Independent Spirit Awards 2010.

So disappointing--of very little help
The book disappointed me bitterly. This woman does not understand severe, and I do mean severe, bipolar disorder. She grew up absolutely privileged, always had tons of professional and family support, was wildly successful in her career, avoided hospitalizations, had a very active social and sexual life (she brings that up a lot, probably to get the reader to pay attention). Her writing is not particularly creative; see, for instance, if you can possibly count how many times she describes someone as "kind" or "handsome" (she has preconceived notions that only beautiful people are valuable). Avoid it.

Misrepresented
Mr. Guelzo gives the impression of being an elite who can't pass up an opportunity to diminish the people's President. I think he misrepresented his book on CSPAN. I prefer more facts and less subjective adjectives and interpretations. I don't even find his interpretations logical. His book did have some interesting information in it, however, I didn't bother to finish reading it.

Great picture. spendy stand
I bought this tv a few months ago after a lot of debate. Sony always seemed to be the more expensive product, then it went on sale. 13,999 was the sale. after having to buy the necessary stand for 200, the sale price kind of vanished. Keep in mind that you will need some sort of stand for this unit as it sits too low for good viewing angle without it. The picture is great. As most people say, unless you have a good cable signal, the flaws will be very evident. But I bought this for movies. DVD's look awesome!! I only wish it was widescreen as most all dvd's come in 16:9 format. I know, why did I buy a 4:6 aspect then? Well, I don't like how if you are watching normal tv and the picture is cut down. I would definitely recommend this tv to others, but I would warn people to weigh their priorities.

Smart product
This is a very good idea and it is good quality also. My only complaint, and the reason for 4 stars rather than 5 is that it isn't really compatible with the Baby Jogger stroller. I can make it work, but it falls off every once in a while and if I want to recline the seat back, I cannot keep the Bundleme hooked on. Besides that it's great.

impossible to use
The user interface for this product is so difficult. When you click on a word just to highlight it, the software will look up the word. Also, it is impossible to print out long article to read because the software break up articles into little section. But it does not let you print the whole article. You have to print out a small section each time.

Ric Flair at his best wooo
If you are or not a ric flair fan I would say read this book. His been around for years, so you get to see how wrestling was back in 70s 80s 90s 2000s. So your really get to see how wrestling changed, and he is one of the best wrestlers and talkers there will ever be. His had a pretty crazy child hood and young life and he goes into great detail. Heres just an example of one thing, i never knew he was stolen from his birth parents and adopted. that should be enough to get you to read this.

Wrong region
I bought this DVD and I was very happy to receive it quickly. I went home to watch it but it did not work. My PS3 from Europe gave me a message on my big screen that This DVD can't be played back on this machine. FYI I bought more then 20 music DVD titles and movies from Amazon.com and they all work fine.

Possible used product
The product works fine but Amazon should be more upfront with the fact that you may be receiving a used or refurbished product. I took my clipper out of the bag and noticed that there were short bits of hair all over the blades. This doesn't affect the quality of the product but obviously someone had used it before me and the sight was a little gross, especially when you paid for a new item.

Heart wrenching and heart warming
This book has a strong female lead character that goes through many hardships. The story is heart wrenching at times, but has a great ending. By the end of the book, the reader will feel strengthened from the emotional journey Inanna has made in order to triumph over evil. This book has all the great elements - fantasy with a touch of romance, engaging fights, and hardships endured! A MUST read!

It merely got on my nerves even more!The Cd is way over-produced the vocals grating and the music blaring.I listened with dismay as I realised the real Shania was gone and now she was a mindless Mutt Lange fabrication.Take my advice and don't spend your hard earned money on this partially worthless piece of crap. I've already sold my copy!For something tender,something real, something pure buy Sherrie Austin Streets Of Heaven instead!!!!!!!!!!

This is the kind of classic lititure that ought to be taught in high school
This was an amazing work of literary art. Normally I am not a huge fan of short stories, but this collection was excellent. Each story is just long enough to get to the point and then haunts you after you read it. There is always that final moment summing up what actually happened to give you the chills.

Nauseatingly Sweet. It's slick and sticky.
Sort of like DC TALK without the religion. They seem to be trying so hard to be the next big boy band but 'N SYNC they aren't. Of course, their indie roots have been plucked, and they probably don't have much cred left (unless playing the viper room is credible). Fame and fortune are what these harvard educated rich kids are after. If you don't mind music without any integrity and you aren't impartial to the sweetest, stickiest bubblegum pop, then you might not mind the PUSH KINGS. But in desperately cultivating a retro image (complete with floppy hairdo's and tight clothing), they are miscalculating their appeal while their music alienates their indie fan base (if it hasn't already). If they are big in Japan, so am I.

Good album, but questionable song selection
This is a good CD, but if it turns out to be Peter Cetera's only "collection," future civilizations will know him primarily as a duet master. "Duets and Remakes of Chicago Tunes" would have been a more apt title for this CD, because such excellent (solo) songs such as "One Good Woman," "Even a Fool Can See,""Glory of Love," and many good album cuts, are not included on this disc. The three remakes of Chicago songs aren't better than the originals, and aren't that different. "She Doesn't Need Me Anymore," a new cut, is excellent, and unfortunately didn't garner the airplay it deserved. Bottom line - a good CD if you're a Cetera fan, but if you can only buy one of his CDs, get "World Falling Down" or "One More Story" instead.

The Eyes of Horus are Upon You
Carol Thurston has managed to jumble together enough actual facts and interesting details to give Eye of Horus a boost over the typical thriller, but the lumpy writing and long totally unnecessary passages really drag it down. The story flip flops between Kate McKinnon, modern day artist, and the ancient unknown princess of Egypt, Aset. The mystery is based on a real one, namely how did a particular mummy get an extra head wrapped up in it, and whose mummy was it. This is the problem Kate is trying to solve, and the outcome Aset is unwittingly trying to avoid. Inbetween is alot of truly valueable daily life stuff for ancient Egypt and alot of useless modern day formula as well. The sad truth of the matter is, The Eye of Horus could have been a much better book were it about one hundred pages shorter. As it stands, its an entertaining read for an audience that's used to skipping pages at the slow parts.

Allergy Caution: perfume scent
The product page said it removed "allergens". It also says on the bottle "removes allergens". But it has a strong fragrance. Many people with allergies have reactions to perfumes and scents. Yes, it's a nice smell, but that's not the point. Using this fills a room with the synthetic perfume. This is the type of thing that can give some people bad headaches!I tried to find ingredients listed on the bottle before opening it but there was no list, just that phrase "removes allergens". I risked opening the seal to sniff it, and lost that gamble. I am disappointed. Why would there be perfume in an anti-allergen product? Now I have a huge bottle of useless-to-me shampoo.I am back online searching for the key words "hypo-allergenic" and "unscented". I feel the packaging/info is misleading to people with allergies. Cat and dog dander are not the only allergens!

Great read
I had to read this book for my "Juvenile Delinquency" (SOC383) class at BYUI. Our teacher chose specific chapters he wanted us to read, but I read the entire thing because I WANTED TO! This book honestly is hard to put down. It has so many theories on why delinquents are the way they are. You may think you know it all, but you don't! This book goes over everything. If you are any type of Sociology, Psychology, or Social Work major, or if any of those are your profession then you NEED to read this book. It opens up a whole new way of thinking. I would definitely recommend it!

This is the best classic album I have ever heard. You can have Sarah's music playing over and over again all day long. Her voice is divine, the music soft and not overpowering.

I love this vacuum. My Eureka recently broke and I have to say I am really glad that I happened upon the Bosch. I was not really interested in buying a canister vacuum but after using it, I am glad I did. It is really maneuverable, moves easily around corners and hard to reach places. It also has several attachments that allow for cleaning in tight spaces and window blinds, hard surfaces etc... I am really happy with the transition.

.This is a very informative book. It is written by the father of modern reloading and is very simple and clear. There are many, many load tables for most modern ammo. It is of course geared to the use of Lee reloading tools since it is written by Richard Lee. I bought it to help me decide which way to go with reloading (new to the practice) and am now a firm Lee Precision guy. Great book!

Mulan II ~~~Cute~~~
This DVD just arrived today, and I was fairly excited to watch it. As an avid Disney movie collector (well over 300 DVD's to date) I love to add to my collection.For a Sequel, this one was very well done. The whole movie was basically empowering women to follow their heart. In this day and age, that is an important thing.All in all, it was a very cute movie. It's too bad Eddie Murphy didn't come back as Mushu though. :(

Good bed for the money
Assembly was pretty easy. The bed (especially the headboard) looks nice and is of a pretty good quality. Have slept on it now for a few weeks and it is sturdy. Only complaint is that the bed is slightly wider than my mattress (which is a queen size Bergad memory foam mattress...no box springs). As a result, you can see an inch or so of the unpainted bed slats. But maybe my mattress is a bit non-standard, I really don't know. No big deal, the bed sheets cover it up. Anyhow, I like the bed overall.

Good collection of tales and stories.
In reading "Gypsy Folktales" by Diane Tong, it is important to keep in mind this is a collection of stories and histories as told to Ms. Tong by individuals. Some may have more historic or folkloric significance than others. That said, many of the stories may seem familiar--many they illustrate themes common in folkloric tales across cultures and the oral tradition. Some stories reflect a blend of local flavor and the rich oral tradition of the Rom.The stories are short and entertaining to read. For my purposes, I have found this book a good source of plotlines for storytelling and other performance.

Valiant cause, but lacking solid ground to stand on.
Though Lynne Meredith means well, and is correct that there is no law forcing you to pay taxes, she suggests using many faulty arguments that can lead you to prison. It is important that you research her arguments carefully before taking any actions. The truth to tax freedom is much simpler than her book makes it sound.

I simply cannot believe that this group still exists, let alone ever made it onto the radio. First of all, none of its members can sing; their voices sound like nails across a chalkboard. And the songs that they have written are complete nonsense that do not sound good at all. As a musician and lifetime appreciator of music, I find it insulting that anyone would support a group that sounds as awful as Dave Matthews Band. This proves that anyone can throw together a bunch of [...] and not put any thought or effort into it, and it will sell. Come on America, we are not that ignorant!!!

His Audience of One
Maybe the symbolic reference throughout this book of the main character's "audience of one" refers to me, as I appear to be perhaps the only person who enjoyed this novel. Seriously, I found this story to be captivating in regard to how when Jack needed to dig deep to get into character as an actor he would use the image of his absent father for inspiration. I also enjoyed the symbolism of tatoos and wrestling interwoven in the plot. His relationship with Emma and her mother is typical Irving, but in a good way. I didn't think I'd like this novel as I was initially turned off by 900 pages about a tatoo adict. But the story kept me hooked, and two years after reading this book I am wondering how I enjoyed this quirky story so much only to hate his new novel, Last Night in a Twisted River.

Talk about one of those 70's super groups, thisunasunming but unbelivealbly good CD puts them to shame, not a note outof place, every muscian knew where they were going, and the flow of thealbum was as mighty as the mississippi right up to the end. What an endto the CD, "I'm Going Home", oh fellow babies, you could compare it tothe Ten Years After version, and be hard pressed to choose between themfor the best one.

Having read others reviews and with some skepticism, I ordered this washer and received it a couple of weeks ago. Maybe I was just lucky? Shipping was quick and the unit was intact.

Stripped a cedar deck and a 10 year old, redwood, Rainbow playsystems swingset with ease! They both look like new, ready for a new coat of stain. This unit works great for cleaning vinyl siding and windows. Make sure you fan the spray though or you'll poke holes right through the siding! I have nothing but good things to say about this product.......hope I feel the same in a couple of years! I'll come back and give it 5 stars if it holds up throughout use this summer.UpDate: Two years later and still going strong - this model problably isn't available any longer but I wanted to follow up just in case. 5 stars!!

Good choices clearly explained
These are great selections and each is given a brief historical explanation with the philosophical implications. I wonder if this would seem like such a clear treatment of Wittgenstein if I had not already read Ray Monk "Duty of Genius" first? I would love to hear from someone in that regard. I am considering this as a possible text for class, perhaps to replace the Wittgenstein Reader I am now using.

Give Tey a try.
Did Richard III have the princes in the Tower "done in?" That is one of the great mysteries of history, and Tey "solves" it in the Daughter of Time. Some critics consider this the greatest mystery novel ever written, and I concur. Have read hundreds of mysteries, many of them marvelous,but The Daughter of Time is the best.There are those who think Christie's The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is best. I don't because I had correctly figured out who the murderer was by page 2.

I have read the half of this book and I do believe that there are better books than this one. I got this one in my J++ package for free, but I rather to expend a bit more and get a better book where to learn easier.

The worst book I've read in two months
Jeffery Deaver fascinates me. He has great ideas for novels, and sometimes even turns out a great book. But whether it's the book itself or just the ending, Deaver always finds a way to ruin everything he's written. Whether it's suddenly swerving things with a ridiculous ending that negates the first 95 percent of the novel or by throwing ridiculous situations and characters into the mix, Deaver always finds a way to ruin his books and tick off the readers. This is a perfect example.Don't bother reading this. Spend your money on sleeping pills...they'll have the same effect. Bad characters, a STUPID ending, a choppy plot, and I could go on and on about what's wrong with this book.Another strikeout for Deaver.

Leak Detection Device
Easy to use and is spot on when detecting a leak. Controls are simple and self explanatory. The battery compartment cover is not designed to last, I am already having problems with the one on my unit.It has paid for itself with 2 "positive" checks already.

Small Air Compressor
This small compressor was a Xmas gift, I had no need of it until early January. I connected it up per instructions and it never activated. I changed fuses and hooked up to different 12v batteries but it never ran. I went to the web page which was useless so I returned it to Amazon. It was just junk as far as I was concerned.

Very enjoyable
If you like history and/or dogs you will enjoy this book. Children enjoy books about Balto and this is the real thing.

Itty Bitty lasts itty bitty time
I have had both the original and the volume 2 book light. Both lights developed shorts in the wiring that cause the light to flicker --- very annoying. The light will not stay upright and flops down to the page. Have the same problem with both lights. I am looking for a new book light without an arm to flop or wires to bend.

Kitty weed
This is very potent and fresh; my cats absolutely love it. Much higher quality than non-organic catnip, and the tin helps keep it fresh.

Will It Work This Time?
This is my second MIU electronic oven thermometer I have bought. The first one worked one time. By the time I used it the second time, it was over a month and I couldn't get an Amazon refund. Maybe this one will work more than one time. The thermometer programming sure could use some additional features than what it has now.

Superior disco "oldies" act compilation...
Everyone knows Odyssey's debut album was something special. Later albums steadily diminished, although even at the end a trifle like "Inside Out" balanced sexist lyrics with a gliding production that recalled the sophisticated, bittersweet "Native New Yorker" schtick that made Odyssey famous.How wonderful that this compilation happens to include most of their first album (including the magnificent "Easy Come, Easy Go/Hold de' Mota Down") and the best of the rest, including thier odd but winning cover of Lamont Dozier's "Going Back To My Roots."Anyone who remembers only the awful late 80's remake of "One-Two-Three (Shake your Body Down)" is in for a shock; the original was a stripped-down sort of tribal bubble-gum, unlike any disco record I've ever heard. Not to overpraise, but it's very good and above all, ORIGINAL.The ballad cuts aren't as good as the stompers, but are quite listenable. Sound quality is standard. In short, a bargain...

Topps Does It Again
With soft-cropped photos(both action and posed) bordered in black trim and pressed with gold lettering, Topps has scored a touchdown with its 50th anniversary football set.The basic set is described as above with a players full pro statistics on the back. There are plenty of inserts, from the standard black parallel set to autographs and Super Bowl-used relics. My favorite inserts are the Throwback cards which bring back many memories for me. Though the card stock is new, the prints on the cards are replicas of older Topps sets, including a few that I collected when I was a child.Another good thing about this set is its affordability. At $1.99 per retail pack, you can't complain. Topps has always managed to put out cards that are both well produced and sold at a good price for those of us who may not be able to plunk down four dollars for a retail pack of five to ten cards.Highly recommended set.

BEST SKI MOVIE EVER!
Husband and three kids have watched it COUNTLESS times yet so far- every time we come home from skiing and sometimes twice. My four year old DEMANDS to watch Kaj the "Flying Squirrel" and my middle daughter cannot get enough of Ingrid. What a movie - makes Miller look past his prime. WE WANT A SOUNDTRACK! Don't hesitate to buy!

Eight Is Just Right
I am a huge fan of Eight Is Enough then and now. Can't wait for the second season now that I've seen the first. A little disapointed with the quality of the DVD especially the first episode. A very grainy picture, At least mine was. The extra clip at the end with the actors now was awesome. Dick looks great and the girls are prettier then ever.

Where is Rufus Miller when we need him most?
I can think of no other group that has shuffled around lead vocalists as much as Tower of Power. Fortunately, the shuffling continued and the group found a talented lead vocalist for "Souled Out". The vocals on this album are flat and lack the soulful edge to which fans have grown accustomed. The album dares ask the question, "What if Mr. Mister had a horn section?"

Simply incredible piece of writing
Terri Brown-Davidson is a writer possessed of certain genius. Her narrative inventiveness combined with her pyrotechnical writing skills make for a simply unbelievable brew of storytelling magic. Armed with a bag of verbal magic, Brown-Davidson is forced to elevate the English language to keep pace with her wondrous imagination. Familiar themes of familial abuse and dysfunction, misplaced love and the redeeming joys of art, are spun together in such a way as to adjust our notions of character and plot to accomodate the wizardry with which she spins them into a haunting parallel world that never ceases to entertain and amaze the reader.

Customer Service/Tech Support
Based on the experience the reviewer wrote, I've changed my mind on buying ANY Garmin product. That brand of tech and customer support deserves NO customers.

NOT A STAR
I bought this book thinking it would be an interesting read about the making of the Lord of the Rings. Instead it is the story of how great and underappreciated Sean Astin is as an actor. To be honest who ever really knew of him before Lord of the Rings. I found the book a big dissappointment. I don't really care about how great an actor or filmmaker Sean Astin thinks he is nor am I interested in his political views. If this was his objective he should have chosen a different title instead of scamming people into buying his book.

Wow!
I have been following this series ever since it came out. All I can say is WoW! I stayed up until 1:30 in the morning reading it because I couldn't put it down.David Weber is doing a very nice job filling out the personality of Honor, and answering questions about her.

The name says it all
Don't waste your time or money with the flick. It is not a "Black Comedy", it's just a lame attempt at one to give slow-witted teens something to laugh at. Violent films don't offend me, but this is nothing but random violence put together for some unknown reason. Christian Slater needs a serious beat-down. This movie is truly very bad.

Excellent,thought provoking,thriller!
Although,the critics did not like this movie,that just proves that not all xritics should speak for the movie going public!I really loved this film.Great personal political film without making it seem so boringly political.Kevin Spacey is wonderful as a brillent UT professor who is an advocate for saving death penelty inmates from well...death.His partner in crime is a wonderful Laura Linney who is more passionate in her goal to abolish the death penelty.Kevin Spacey finds himself accused of Rape and Murder and with 3 days left to live.Kate Winslet is the reporter that gets sucked into his story.Kate Winslet is by far the best asset to the film.It is wonderful to see her just use her amazing talent in jeans and without a corset or taking her clothes off!HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Inlaws
I didn't know I was getting 2 dvds, that was a nice surprise. That said, I am glad that it was included because I wouldn't give a dime for the new version. I really like Mike Douglas, but this was really beneath him. The first Inlaws was hilarious. Highly recommend the first. the second is a waste of time. So the 5 stars is for the original.

I hope more BSC books are like this..........
I know #131 seems kind of depressing, but I hope there are more books like "The Fire at Mary Anne's House" and this isn't just a fluke.For the first time, you see the teens in the story step outside of the BSC and take a look at real life. The story was very true to heart and the book made me cry.I read the next two books in the "Friends Forever" series, and I was amazed. The books aren't like California Diaries or the BSC. There JUST PLAIN GOOD! Not too depressing, but not overly happy either. I loved BSC #131, "Everything Changes" and Friends Forever #1! Keep going Ann! Your readers are coming back!

RAM instead of DODGE
I just received the steering wheel cover today. I ordered it for my Dodge Neon. Unfortunately, when I opened the box, the steering wheel cover has "Ram" instead of "Dodge" written on it on both sides. This, obviously, will not work for my car since I do not have a Dodge Ram. Have to send it back.

Breast Infection
I am a first time mom and had no idea how breastfeeding would go. After being home for a day or two I started using this pump just to see if had enough milk and to give my nipples a rest. I developed a breast infection and I truly believe it was due to this pump. It is terrible and it takes forever to get an ounce of milk. After having two infections in a two week period my Mom purchased me the Medela pump in style. It is a completely different experience. I have not had another infection and is not nearly as rough on my breast at this pump was. I also know someone else who used this pump and developed breast infections. She switched to the Medela and hasn't had anymore problems.
