Does not even deserve the one star!

We use this product where I work. We have 7 Cordless phones and 1 base. All of the phones have a lot of static in them now. We have trouble with customers being able to hear us and visa versa. Also on all of the cordless phones the 1's are no longer working! The 2 on three of the phones is starting to go. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT AT ALL!

Decent but Derivative
|
This is a decently written and constructed combination police procedural and thriller. The basic plot device is the discovery that a skilled solo assassin has infiltrated into Britain, probably with the intention of killing a prominent international leader at a major conference. The story follows the assassin in parallel with the efforts of security agencies to catch her. Older readers will recognize the story line from Frederick Forsythe's Day of the Jackal, published about 30 years ago. If you like Witch Hunt, you should read Forsythe's book, which is signicantly better. Even better, rent or buy a copy of the superior movie version starring Edward Fox and directed by the talented Fred Zinneman. A warning, the movie version should not be confused with a more recent and godawful Hollywood remake titled The Jackal, starring the inexcrable Bruce Willis.

In a nutshell
|
This book was recommended reading during my studies on interior design, so I bought it without really looking into it. I was disappointed. Maybe I expected too much, maybe the title misled me, but it seemed very much based on thumbnail sketches and it wasn't what I was looking for. It is a thin little book full of rough pencil sketches that you could easily lose down the back of the sofa! (in a nutshell). I wanted to know the more indepth technical ways of doing perspectives and this book left me in the dark.

BORING...DULL....ZZZZZ
|
I cant say much other then this book was so dull and boring....I was actually angry that I was spending my time reading it. I didnt smile...I didnt laugh...I didnt cry...it was so dry, dull and lifeless.....ugh. I was so anxious to get to the last chapter..maybe then FINALLY something would happen or perhaps a huge twist to bring the story together...but nope. Beginning was boring...middle boring...and the ending was even more boring.

Stick to what you do best
|
Carly does not presently have the voice for standards. Shepossibly could with retraining, but that would change the soundof her core repertoire that made her famous.The pieces are sung too low to show the nuancesand colors of standards. Then there are pitch problems. I'veloved Carly on her earlier music, and recommend she stick toher own genre and not try to cross over. For standards, I'drecommend Jane Monheit, and Queen Latifah's Dana Owens album.

Wow! What a piece of junk!

I just spent hours of frustration trying to get this thing to work reliably. Never got it working correctly. Netgear won't just let you install the drivers and be done with it. No, they force you to install their bloated and buggy configuration software which doesn't play well with Windows XP(apparently). So, after much cursing and hair-pulling, I took it back and exchanged it for a comparable Linksys adapter. Now all is right again in my universe. If you are looking for a USB wireless adapter, do yourself a favor and go back to the search page and type in L-i-n-k-s-y-s.

Simply Magical
|
The brilliant opening to J.K. Rowling's phenomenal Harry Potter series is an effortlessly magical, charming, exciting, and completely immersive experience. It is incredibly rare to be as drawn into the world of a fantasy novel as much as one is in the terrifying, hilarious, and sometimes unsettling world that Rowling has created.Another commendation on Rowling's behalf is that she manages to make real, believable, and complex characters with strengths and weaknesses in equal measure. Eight years after the book's initial publication in the UK, sitting down to read this book is like having a cup of tea with old friends. It's a beautiful novel, it really is.How interesting that both the Harry Potter and Buffy the Vampire Slayer series started in 1997, each revitalizing the fantasy genre and creating some of the most realistic and complicated characters in the genre's history. 'Twas a good year for make-believe.

I have no complaints aboout how the product works, it works great but I thought I was getting a blue one as shown in the picture. I ended up purchaing this item for my husband who is in Iraq becuz its so hot there and he ended up with a pink fan. The paper he recieved with it said color may vary.....umm ok. So that didnt work out as planned. I was disappointed in the company. The fan is great if you can pick your color tho.

Truly Great Hits
|
Backstreet Boys may not write music of their own but I still love them as great performer of current pop music.Indeed, Backstreet Boys brought back true great music that we can easily sing along with new form. I love Millenium so my interests in this collection are on non-Millenium tracks. AS LONG AS YOU LOVE ME is my #1 favorite among them. And their recent single DROWNING is nice addition to their history as excellent pop performers.I placed this collection on my listmania list"My Favorite Greatest Hits(1)" which includes those by the Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Sting, Led Zeppelin, and Billy Joel because I think it should have classics status. Essential for greatest hits collectors.

WoW!

I bet no one has ever heard of this, but it's a keeper, especially if you're one for World War II novels. This seafaring novel has an exciting plot of a man named Ben Grant, coxswain of the British submarine Scavenger. After his commanding officers are killed by a German bomber, Grant is responsible for completing their mission and getting his crew home.This story is different than any World War II submarine story that I have ever read. It's full of suspense and action and is sure to keep you on your toes.*If you have a hard time with nautical terms and strange dialects, I wouldn't reccomend it to ya.

What I read was fascinating and I can't wait to read more.Unfortunately towards the end of the novel, I found myself missing 60 pages.Incredibly disappointing.

Sympathy for the devil
|
Swanson succeeds well in his apparent objective of writing a non-fiction thriller based on the hunt for the Lincoln's assasins. While not losing sight of the nature of the cabal of bitter reactionary racists who conspired to kill America's greatest president he clearly developed significant sympathy for his subjects, and presents in some detail their considerable bravery and endurance in the aftermath of the murder.The book illuminates this aspect of the Civil War, often passed over or obscured in other texts by the monumental tragedy of Lincoln's assasination. It is also a sobering reminder to the contemporary world that courage is not the highest of virtues but rather often facilitates some of the worst of human behaviour and can lead to some of the greatest pain and loss.

Burn Notice Season 6
|
Very disappointing season all around. The writers seem to be out of ideas...and the focus on the love affair is just not all that interesting. Even when some great guest stars were brought back this season (Jason Bly, Carmelo, Bruce Geller)...they were underused. The show, for the first 5 seasons, was sassy, sharp, fun....I am hoping that some new and creative ideas can revive Burn Notice.....

I have a new 15" MacBook Pro, and this game does not work properly. There is something strange going on with the graphics... it draws weird colors and huge planes and rays all over the place, making the game unusable. I have a 2.2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, with a nicer graphics card than recommended, so I exceed the minimum requirements, but it won't run properly. By the way, RCT 3 regular works fine.

if you are a deaf person don't bother buying this teriffic little television miniseries . likewise if you are hard of hearing or wish to read the dialogue and/or description of sounds depicted on screen . i highly anticipated this restoration of the complete mini-series as i'd read and quite enjoyed the book . the approx two hour film culled from this mini-series was a bit above mediocre if you'd read the book , but to go to the effort of fully restoring the complete and better total package (and not to have encoded either closed captions of subtitles) ought to be against the law . otherwise a fun film with a good cast with a pretty fair amount of effort put into it . what a blunder .

You have to be a SUPER skipper!

Purchased this as a Christmas gift for my 4 year old son and 2 1/2 year old daughters. Seemed like it would be fun for all of them. Was excited that it had 3 speeds as I was sure we would be using the slowest one! Well, our plan is now to work up to the slowest speed! This thing whips around so fast that even I have a hard time keeping up! There is no chance that any small child still working on coordination would ever be able to play with this! My kids have repurposed the jumping arms as swords and this seems to still make them happy. So not a total waste, but still disappointed.

For a two dimentional game, you won't find one better. This game has a great storyline, exceptional graphics, awesome sound effects, yada, yada, yada........you will not regret playing this game even if you don't play games that often. This game will hook you within the first ten minutes. The only thing that could prove me wrong is if you don't want to take the time to read what some of the articles actually do once you pick them up. You have to constantly decide what to wear and what to use.

A real blunder from Romero
|
Season of the Witch has to be Romero's 3rd worst movie since "Monkey Shines and Day of the Dead" but this lacks horror and gory special effects instead this has lots of talk and bad acting that one scene is not scary or effective but the movie is slow and dull with no budget and only one scene of blood. A woman is troubled by memories and keeps having bad dreams sums of the plot of this mess and for the movie being 89 minutes it feels short. The VHS from Anchor Bay is awful it looks muddy and there's tons of artifacts(This was shot on 16mm)and the direction is slow. Please don't release this on DVD because it dosen't deserve special features or restored picture. It's a shame this crapola comes from Romero. Stick with his masterpiece Dawn of the Dead instead of this.

Outdated and Jaded
|
This book is a nice overview of various options available to those having difficulty conceiving. Unfortunately, this field changes quickly, and since it's publication it's very outdated. Techniques she discusses are now rarely used because newer/more effective treatments have been established. Also, her slant against fertility treatments (as she admits in the preface)is obvious throughout the book. Finally, the author's understanding of research appears limited. Specifically, she fails to consider that IVF pregnancies are not at higher risk of miscarriage - maternal age is the risk factor. It just so happens that those who receive IVF treatments are generally older.

Just terrible, just purely awful...
|
This album from Limp Bizkit doesn't come even close to their first album in terms of lyrics, singing and guitar riffs. Even some of their songs like Break Stuff sounds way too fake. Nookie just irritates me, awful singing, really stupid lyrics and bad guitar riffs. Even the other songs sounds way too teeny-boppy for to be even a rap-metal album. Not only that, stay away from Korn and Kid Rock. They also sound very unoriginal. Anyone who wants real good metal should listen to System Of A Down, Slipknot, 16 Volt, Ministry, Powerman 5000, Pitchshifter, Coal Chamber, Nine Inch Nails and Fear Factory.

When I ordered this, I was very excited to work on my school project however, when I received the the disk, I got version 11, but a serial key for version 10. I call Amazon and they said they had no control over that and sent me to the manufacture who CHARGED me another $9.95 to get a serial code for the right version...which...might I add...DIDN'T WORK EITHER. I would steer clear of this product in my own opinion because now I have to buy another product and am out 20+ dollars.

HOT and STINKY
|
Heater puts off a burning oil odor. I called Coleman for assistance they were NOT helpful. The person at Coleman said they have received calls regarding a hot oil smell from the heater and said it was do to oil used in the manufacturing and I should run it in my garage for an hour to see if it would discontinue putting of an odor. I followed his instructions and it made no difference so I let it go for another hour still no change.Unfortunately I first used it in my house for about 15 minutes. It made our whole house smell like burning oil (and still does 8 hours later) and it left our eyes irritated just like if we burned oil while cooking, hopefully this isn't toxic.Maybe we got a bad heater, no other reviews complained of a smell. But I would definitely advise that you test it outside or in your garage before using it in your house.I work retail and don't want to come across as a whiner but our experience with this heater really sucked!

Nice Black and White Silhouettes, But Not Very Helpful
|
This is a small collection of some black and white examples of kimono. It may be useful for clip art, and general reference, as the images are lovely.It is not, however, going to be helpful in researching Kimono for historic, costuming, or other purposes. It contains no text, only the large images. I think a basic book of Japanese/Oriental clip art would be more helpful. I have to give it credit though, for being inexpensive, and focusing on kimono in many forms.

This book is a clone of every other etiquette book on the market with slightly edgy cover art to disguise the fact that they still say you aren't allowed to tell anyone where you're registered. Etiquette is etiquette whether you're an anti-bride or not, and I suppose it's my own fault for thinking this book would tell me something different from all the others.

this book is annoying, boring, and completely unrealistic
|
Was this profile of a yuppie serial killer a parody or a suspense thriller? What is certain is that this book fails miserably at engaging the reader by depicting a killer's psyche and actions. Instead, the author tortures the reader by showing off his knowledge of high fashion clothing, expensive electronics, and trendy cuisine at trendy 80s restaurants in NYC that the "serial killer" protagonist is supposedly obsessed with. The descriptions of the murders are graphic and well composed, but it is absurd to think that someone could murder over 40 people on the streets of Manhattan and in his apartment and not get caught. In the end, lack of plausibility and lack of character development make this book a bust and a complete waste of the reader's time.

Magnetic screen is exactly what we needed!
|
I was very excited to get this magnetic screen since I like to leave the back door open to allow fresh air into the house, but our back door wouldn't accommodate a regular screen door the way it was installed so flies and other insects came in,too. We also have 3 dogs who want to go in and out constantly. The two bigger dogs figured out how to go in and out almost immediately, and now they can come and go as they please. Our little dog is afraid of it, so one of the bigger dogs opens it for her! This screen door is the exact solution for our problems!It was simple to install - it uses a tension bar at the top and simply stick-on Velcro down the sides to keep it in place. It fits our door frame exactly with no gaps anywhere! It would be simple to take down and put back up if you needed to for any reason.This is a clever and ingenious product that I would recommend to anyone.

Perfect for KAHR CW9
|
As soon as I got this grip I put it on. I was very excited because shooting the KAHR CW9 without a grip of some sort will chew your hands up after any long period of shooting your pistol. It fits snug and did not need any readjustment after shooting 250+ rounds through the pistol. I highly recommend this product to anyone with a pocket/subcompact pistol comparable to the CW9 in size. Just a remarkable item. "Buck and Does" is the store I ordered this from and it was very reasonably priced. And they got it here within a week, so no complaints only praises. Hope this helps anyone interested in this product.

Time to regroup and reminisce
|
I have been a long-time OMEN fan, and I love all their albums up until the BEST OF (Teeth of the Hydra). This album sounded to me like an attempt to come back before they were ready, and with a terrible vocalist to boot.If you are new to OMEN, I suggest the first three albums (Battle Cry, Warning of Danger, and The Curse), or the BEST OF if you can only choose one. The BEST OF album is a pretty good example of the styles from each early album, containing some of their best songs (but not ALL the best ones).I have not yet heard the newest album, but it sounds like it might be a decent return to form, based on reviews. I think it will be quite tough to replace J.D. Kimball on vocals, though.

poor workmanship

I returned two of these. The top portion is larger than the bottom and the quilting creates wrinkles & buckling that will not smooth out. You would expect a higher thread count for the money (felt like @ 180). Also, there was very little padding so you don't get what the pictures show.

This is the master at work, no doubt. Not many authors have the skill and expertise to handle more than one sub-plot and to do it so beautifully. The size of the book would intimidate a lot of people, but I would advice you to pick it up and read. It is quite educational - ebola virus, iranian politics etc. Good Read!!

Should be Microsoft Secure Code
|
I agree with a previous reviewer that the title is misleading - it should emphasize that this is primarily a book about not writing non-secure code on a Windows platform.There are many good tips in the book (which is why it didn't get one star), but for those of us who write code for other platforms (there are other platforms, BTW) it's not nearly as useful.The final example of non-usefulness are the sample code files. To get them you must download a Windows executable which requires that you click on a button accepting a license agreement; the download will then begin. If you don't happen to be running on a Windows box, no download, no code examples, no nothing. Makes the book way less useful and much more annoying to me.

Correction
|
Contrary to what someone says above:"Fly Jefferson Airplane, get you there on time" was not what gave the Airplane their name, it was Donovan's tribute to them after being in San Francisco. Four stars only because that's what i thought of it at the time. Really good, but sometimes too precious. Worth knowing if you don't. Unquestioned classic.

Nice though not spectacular addition to the archives
|
Let me clear up something posted by the reviewer from San Francisco. In this volume, you DO NOT GET stories of the Fatal Five, the Adult Legion, or the Sun Eater. The reviewer must have been thinking of another volume. In this volume you get the creation and exploits of the Legion of Substitute Heroes. It's not the best period for the Legion, not even close, but I don't regret buying it. I enjoyed many of these older stories. If this were a stand-alone volume I wouldn't have liked the included choices, but as part of a nine volume set, I think they are representative of this period in the comic's history.

Old Hollywood Meets New Hollywood
|
This is a perfect example of a movie where Hollywood got it right! Ocean's Eleven combines old style class with new world flare in this edgy, high-stakes, winner-take-all, cloak and dagger redo of the 1960 classic. Fresh out of prison and looking to get back into the action, Danny Ocean (George Clooney) enlists a group of 10 fellow ex-cons and "professionals" to take down his current target: his ex-wife's boyfriend, Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia). Among his crew is his old friend Rusty Ryan (Brad Pitt) and new recruit Linus Caldwell (Matt Damon). But when old feelings between Tess (Julia Roberts) and Danny start to resurface, the result threatens the entire mission. Can Danny overcome his feelings for Tess and focus on the heist? Can Linus pull off the biggest pick-pocket of his life? Will Rusty ever stop eating? This movie lacks nothing: just the right amount of intrigue, action and glamour...not to mention stars. A good addition to any espionage-lovers DVD library!

Not a bargain but acceptable.

These cables are a bit cheezy. They work fine but most electronics you buy throw in higher quality wiring than this. As with a lot of factory cables, they hotmelt the plastic over the RCA plugs. This is mostly good but quality control on mine must have blinked because I had a big air bubble exposing the center wire on one end of six. I just put a glob of silicone in the hole and used it anyway.

An absorbing tale of horror mixed with science fiction
|
When Vicky doesn't recieve the ten speed she desires for her birthday, one can't help but feel disappointed in her parents. It's clear to everyone but them that that's what their daughter wanted. Of course, if she had gotten the bike, this story really wouldn't have been as fascinating as it was... Vicky is pulled mysteriously into the dollhouse after a period of creating brutal scenarios for the dolls to exist in, and is suprised to discover that they have adopted the personalities she gave them. The story progresses quickly, and is a sadly short read. Unlike some novels I could name, this one could've stood to be a bit longer. The illustrations make this one fantastic story, and I would strongly reccomend it to anyone looking for a good story with a strong and satisfying end.

DELIGHTFUL
|
This is a really easy to read book. Very matter of fact and as it's written by Michael Jackson himself it is a real joy. It's a very nice looking book as well and I particularly like the way his signature is on one of the front pages so you feel as though he has actually signed it for the reader. It's delightful. It is interesting how the reader has the opportunity to 'hear' Michael Jackson's version and intepretation of various events, which is markedly different from the tabloid press and various writers. If you have already read books about Michael Jackson, you will recognise some of the events mentioned in the book. The reader gets an insight into Michael Jackson's interpretation of the world rather than the tabloids' interpretation of Michael Jackson's world.

Phil Rosenthal
|
Phil Rosenthal is one of the nicest guys I have ever met and this is truly conveyed in the book. It demonstrates that you do not have to lie or cheat or be mean or skeptical or sleep your way to the top in Hollywood. Despite being courteous to those around him and sticking by his guns and his wife he managed to not only make a show but also make it last for 9 seasons and succesfully. The book reveals where the everyone Loves Raymond story lines came from--his own and the other writers' family experiences--Phil said that everyone working on the show was forced to go home in time for dinner so they could report back with their family arguments the next day in the writer's room!

Purchased this mic at Walmart for a good price but had to return it because it wasn't sensitive enough. Used with a mixing input on boombox. Had to turn gain almost all the way up to get any usable signal.

Be warned - do some due diligence before buying
|
If you own a curved-shaft trimmer, this product may not be what you are really looking for.If you have a straight-shaft trimmer, this will indeed serve as a true replacement head. But, with most curved shaft trimmers, the installation instructions for this product require you to leave the original trimmer head base plate on the trimmer. If you don't HAVE the original trimmer head, this product will not work for you.Given this is called a "replacement head", you may be surprised by that - I certainly was.

Arrived broken

Wow I don't know what to say. I should have read these reviews before I got one because mine arrived completely broken. All it does it make static sounds. How could a product built so poorly be allowed to sell like this? I was really looking forward to it too.

Great for Novice Builders
|
I liked this book and feel I could build a small house after reading it. The information is perfect for someone interested in Habitat for Humanity: you'll instantly be an asset to any building project. The side vignettes give nice background on Habitat's mission and the experiences of volunteer workers. I was also drawn to the common sense building approach throughout: we simplify our lives and save lots of money by building "decent, affordable" homes.Each page is packed with photos and sidebars. This makes for visual interest, but more diagrams or sketches would have been useful as well. The essential book, which covers the building techniques of this book plus others (such as plumbing, heating, and electrical) remains Nash's Do-It-Yourself Housebuilding.

Unfortunately, the Turbo Jam Beachbody 5 Rockin Workout video did not work out for me. I went back to my Jane Fonda video which is the best workout for all areas of the body, floor exercise, waist, arms, legs, and great booty exercises.

Cheap guitar for beginners only
|
I've been playing guitar for 10 years. Thought I would get this and put a killer pickup in itand have a fun beater guitar but it just was not worth the trouble. The neck had some fretslifting. I could not set the intonation on this guitar. The stock pickup is one of the worst pickups I have ever heard. The tiger print is a cheap fuzzy looking sticker, under the clear coat. My advice is to stay away.

Not what I remembered
|
I remember seeing this movie as a young teen in the mid seventies, especially the ending, but watching it as an adult it is reallykind of stupid.No storyline or plot, just drive like crazy and run from the police.Peter Fonda never became the actor his father was, even his goofy sisterJane is a better actor.

Disappointing

Not very many good tunes for kids to sing. The Yo Ho song at the end was why we bought this and it's actualy the exact recording from the ride.Having been on the ride probably more than 20 times over 30 years I can say this.

A great processor if you get it at a good price.
|
This is a solid processor for any socket 775 mainboard. I ran it in my primary PC for years on WinXP and then on Win7 until I decided to upgrade to a 64bit Win7 system and wanted more then the 4GB (3.5GB really) that 32bit OS allows. That was when I upgraded to a new mobo, processor, RAM, video card, the works. It really got the job done so I can personally recommend it for WinXP and Win7 casual users even today. It is not what you want for new PC gaming but if you do the usually surfing, check Email, and such it does a great job with todays common software.

Boy do I really wish I did read these reviews before buying this! It is definately a waste of money. My daughter was so happy when she opened it for Christmas and then when she tried to program it, she got frustrated! Then I tried to help and got frustrated myself!!

Comfortable but I would rather have the old style
|
I like this pencil. It writes well and feels good in your hand. My only complaint is that removing the cap to get to the eraser requires a lot more effort than you would expect. I am always afraid that I am going to damage it when pulling it apart. Not as good as the old style, but I couldn't find one if 5mm. I have a 9mm, but the lead is just too big.

These shoes have very little support and have been a loss of 35 dollars. I have replaced the inserts to attempt to salvage these shoes with no success. They also run a little small.

bleah

It is awful. I wanted the classics. And if it's a re-recording, it should say so in big letters on the front of the disc, not in miniscule print on the back along with all the other fine print no one reads. A rip off on the worst level. And now we can no longer return these things just because we don't like them.

Why did I go on an Alan Parsons spree? Aside from the cohesively agreeable I Robot and occasional inspired tracks, these time-stamped packaged deals can play like unworthy emulations of brighter influences.

Just Say No
|
I read Just Say No and A Do Right Man, while reading Just Say No I thought its was very interesting and I did not want to finish it to soon,it was so good the I wanted to keep reading for as long as I can. I never shed a tear over any books that I have read until this one, I was very much into Just Say No, it made you forget about everything and just wonder what was going to happen next, and it also had my mind wondering at first who was this book really about, because it reflected on so many artists out there that you almost wanted to know who is he talking about and what is the actual artist name.I recommend that Just Say No is a perfect stocking stuffer as well as A Do Right Man.
