Great album but not their best...
the only reason that i'm holding back from 5 stars is because these jerks made me buy two separate cds. the cd is pretty good by itself but absolutely amazing when played simultaneously with tribe of neurot's "grace." i don't know why they didn't just mix both albums together in the studio. the neurosis cd is much better with the extra neurot effects and i seriously can't imagine anyone wanting to listen to the neurot album on its own... anyway, if you like this album, i highly recommend "enemy of the sun" and "through silver in blood." at this point i wouldn't hesitate to call either of those albums "seminal classics."

A Good Glimpse of the Popular Island
I found this DVD almost by accident by researching our recent trip to Key West on a popular Key West site. I found that, in addition to a paper guide book we bought, the DVD gave us good insight into the many interesting and quirky facets that make Key West such a special place. I recommend it for what it is...a well-made tour of Key West.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS UNIT. I BOUGHT IT STRICTLY FOR NOSTALGIA PURPOSES , BUT THOUGHT IT MAY BE A DESCENT TOOL. WHILE USING IT THIS PAST WEEK I FOUND OUT THAT THE KEYLESS CHUCK WILL NOT HOLD THE BIT TIGHT, NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY TO TIGHTEN IT. WHILE DRILLING ONLY 1/4 INCH HOLES IN OAK THE BIT WOULD SPIN IN THE CHUCK AS SOON AS ANY PRESSURE WAS APPLIED. I TOOK THE SAME BIT AND PUT IT IN MY PORTER CABLE CORDLESS DRILL AND HAD NO PROBLEMS. ALSO THE BATTERY HAS NO LIFE AT ALL , SO DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY IF YOU PLAN ON USING IT AT ALL.

Doesn't seem well made
These snow shoes arrived promptly as promised, which is what I've always experienced with Amazon orders. However, a strap broke when my husband was just fitting them in our living room once they arrived. The materials seem "cheap", although the bag to carry them is pretty cool, featuring "backpack" type shoulder straps. Not the quality I was expecting. Unfortunately, it's been a "dry" winter in Denver, and we haven't had a chance to use them yet.

Broke after 1 year
This DVD player was a marvel--for one year. Yesterday I was faced with a blinking red light and a dead machine. Apparently it is some type of capacitor problem. I called Philips but they couldn't do anything for me. No more Philips products for me. I want something that will last more than a year.

Nikon Coolpix 775 - Software Issues are Huge
Nice little camera with lots of features. But don't let that fool you.There's a huge range of current computers with which the camera is essentially incompatable - my 1-year-old Dell Dimension, a widely distributed name-brand model - is an example. And the incompatibility in some cases is complete - no downloads are available to fix.We'd expect better of Nikon's software team. And as the issue is widespread, Nikon's customer service team has let the consumer down as well, by failing to identify the potential issues on the box..... My advice if you buy this - spend the extra to buy from a name outlet (about $75-$100 more), make sure you understand their return policy, and test the full range of functionality as soon as you get home.

Bonnie Raitt's new recording is a delight.Each time I listen it keeps growing with me..Her voice is outstanding along with her guitar work. There is a mixed style of selections which makes this A+ recording seem loose , fun , funky and soulfoul. The guitar work on Hear Me Lord is great and so clear. My favorite tracks are Fools Game,Back Around,No Getting Over You, Time of our lives..Glad you took a chance Bonnie and made the kind of record you really wanted to make.

Nothingness
I wasted $8.00.Rambling writing going nowhere. Expect to see this book as a prop in bookcases at discount furniture stores and in new model homes.If you happen to see the movie it's obvious the screenwriter(s) didn't think much of it either. The plot is similar to the book in only the broadest sense.The author probably doesn't care how his novel was adapted, for the popularity of the movie has likely attracted more suckers like me to buy the book.

Very dark but very good.
If you are looking for a novel that slams you in your face with what the ideals of society place in our easily modified brains, read this novel. If you want to have a nice, breezy read in the summer afternoon, look elsewhere. Palahniuk does not sugar coat his views on modern society. The characters in this novel all have some form of self-inflicted wound as a result of the world's idealism.

caged aggrevation
The item arrived and upon opening it, one would think all you had to do was to pull on the sides for it to open via it's hinges. Well, mine was not that easy. The wire ends were tucked in and under other wire and it was hard to tell what was what. I had to use a screwdriver to dislodge a couple of areas to get it to open. Once finally opened, I had to force corners to line up so the cage would be squared and work properly. The minimal instructions were inside the difficult to setup cage. Once the aggravation was over. I had a nice cage.

TERRIBLE!
This video does NOT teach you what it claims it does! I was really intrigued about how this video was suppossed to teach "turnarounds & melodic comping" but to my surprise I got much more out of a $5 magazine! I've bought some Eric Clapton songbooks that are (Guitar Recorded Versions) and Curt doesn't even get Eric's riffs right! There are 5 conventional patterns to pentatonic scales; Curt says Eric only uses 3, which I know for a fact is not true! And to top it off this "wonderful" chart Curt so graciously gives you is no more than illegible handwriting on a page no bigger than a Hallmark card! Do yourself a favor and save your money!

My favorite CD of all time
This album is just fantastic. When this album came out in '93, it really got me into music. Many do not know that The Freshman was written before this album even came out, let alone Villians and even then it took almost a year for the album to get any good pub.Great song writing by Brian Vander Ark, vocal harmony and instrumentation is what make this album excellent. Out Like a Lamb is my favorite song ever and you can't go wrong with any song on here.I've been able to meet Mr. Vander Ark and he is one of the nicest and humblest people I've ever met. If you don't have this in your collection, you should.

In the Lake of the Woods
Tim O'Brien has written a absolutly compelling tale of what War can do to a human spirit. It also is a love story, mystery, or fictional fantasy. Through out the book I found myself reaching for the unknown mystery that O'Brien in the end leaves up in the air. With a twisted plot and a laboring toil between styles of writting seen through out the book, I found, In the Lake of the Woods, a most read, two thumbs up book. O'Briens form of writting consistently shows parralles with many other contemporary writters of our time. There is no perfectly layed out endings. There are unknown answers. Also there are jumps between the plot, or breaks. These leave the reader in suspense for the unknown answer. Over all O'Briens style of writting left me deeply intriqued. I would recommend this book to anyone.

Great idea, poor quality
The Good: the coating on the perch seems durable and easy to remove for cleaning. My conure seems to like it.The Bad: 1) The welds on the base are crooked, making the stand wobbly (I jammed paper under two corners to stabilize it. The poor weld job and light coat of paint make the stand look like a rushed job. 2) The height adjustment nut is not as shown in the photo on Amazon. It's a simple wingnut. Not that the wingnut itself is bad, its just mis-represented. 3) The height adjustment wingnut came crossthreaded out of the box...I had to use pliers to loosen it, and it won't thread fully into the so the adjustment, and 4) the perch itself isn't mounted with wingnuts as shown in the photo. Instead, phillips-head screws are used.Overall rating: 1 for the very poor quality. I'd give it a zero if my conure didn't like it. Don't buy it.

Better than the original
I rented the original movie theater release of Kingdon of Heaven and it appeared that there were some plot points missing. While roaming through amazon's selection of movies I discovered there was a director cut and many other extras that the original did not have. I have to say this is a way better movie. Unfortunately movie companies feel we as a people do not have a long attention span for the length of this type of movie. This movie needs to be seen since it is relevent to what is happening in todays world. See the directors cut. You will not be disappointed.

if you want a nofx cd, this is not it
For anyone who wants to listen to NOFX go out and buy an old album. Their last two or three releases have sucked. They lost their style that made them NOFX. They have become soft. This is not for punkers, put for trendy people. I am a huge fan but I would not own any NOFX newer than punk in drubic. If you want to hear real NOFX buy punk in drublic, white trash..., ribbed, longest line, any old album, but NOT THIS ONE.

It's my second one
Got this electric kettle 5 years ago as a wedding gift and I've had great service. From the kettle, that is. I never did notice any plastic odor or smell from the water level indicator inside the kettle. Just follow the directions on a couple of boilouts before you use it. And the ON switch can be easy to mistakenly turn on but I've place it on the counter where that's not likely to happen. I'd still be using it if it weren't for a recent senior moment. I absent-mindedly placed it on a stove top burner and melted the crap out of the bottom of it. That's why I'm here buying another one.

Rated T for Toddler. Not recommended for adults!
No adult should watch this video unaccompanied by a child. Elmo is utterly annoying to anyone overthe age of 7. However, my toddler grandson loves this one. He asks for "Elmo, Babies, and Dogs; Elmo, Babies, and Dogs!" the minute he enters my house. The creators of this thing apparently know what a 2-year-old finds funny, because mine just cracks up when he watches it. And his laughter trumps the annoying Elmo anyday.

How to be a Princess
I recently purchased this book for my 5 year old aspiring Princess and we were delighted. I do not normally purchase books about cartoon characters, this one caught my eye and we were not disappointed with the choice. I previewed the book on my husband and even he was chuckling, nor did he leave the room.The book is written just as any child would tell a story with great exaggeration and mispronunciations. The stickers are just an added feature making this book truly interactive.

ECM's chintzy playing times
I'm getting sorely tired of ECM's chintzy playing times. They're charging full-price for a two-cd release whose total playing time is 81 minutes. That will fit on a single cd. I'm giving this release a pass, despite my admiration for several of the featured musicians (Zehetmair, Holliger, Demenga) and my interest in the repertoire.

Monotonous
Well volume one has almost no dialogue so it is mainly just a picture book and can be read in 20-25 minutes. The dark style of the art work just makes it plain dificult to see what is going on during the action sequences. Most of the backgrounds and characters look identical.I have read several more volumes inside of the bookstores because they are such quick reads, hoping the story and art would make a rebound but no such luck.I dont feel like this story was thought out, rather just created on the spot and the art work in my opinion is not pleasurable.If your looking for a good technology story, excelent art work and pleanty of action give Eden Its and Endless world a try.

Product is slightly flimsy compared to those I've handled in many other stores. Since the rod will be used for a very light-weight valance, I decided to keep it as it probably would cost more to return it.

New formula ruined the product
We have been using CB products for years including lotions, sunscreens, shampoo, bug spray and etc.... The super sensitive lotion has been the only lotion to use on my son, who has bad eczema. However, this new formula totally ruined it. It has a very weird bad strong smell that makes me sick, and it's like a patch of glue that does not moisturize the skin at all... We will stay away from CB products now and need to find some good alternatives to use.....

Replacement TV Ears ordered through Amazon Didn't Work - Not Sure Why
I previously ordered a replacement "TV Ears" headset a year or two ago, that worked fine. These, however, do not work (only static). I'm not sure why they don't work & am unfortunately too busy to troubleshoot the issue. In their defense, I have not contacted them to complain or anything. They're probably a good company & my product is either defective or some setting is off that I can't figure out easily.

Natural Luxury.
A good friend gave me this kit. I had used Burt's Bees Lip Balm before but I had no idea how much I would appreciate this selection of products. The scent of the Hand and Body Lotion is delicious. The way it quickly absorbs and softens my skin is so nice that I would love the lotion even if it had no scent at all. Use the Peppermint Foot Lotion right after a shower and before putting on socks. It is VERY minty and so, if you do not want to feel like a peppermint drop (or smell like one!), you would probably want to use it before putting on shoes, before spending a refreshing time alone, or with someone who loves the peppermint scent. The Lip Balm is as soothing and pleasant as it has always been. This is a very nice gift. I came to this product site intending to order the kit to give as a birthday gift. I am wondering if I should get more for myself before I am in any danger of running out. Who KNEW those bees could make such great things?

Entertaining Little Book
My daughter is just over 2 months - I can't get her to concentrate on anything for more than 5 seconds - but I can just hold the book up (the one I have has a caterpillar on the front) and she just smiles and smiles. Most of the pictures are bright and colorful and she loves hearing "Hola, pato" over and over. Even if she never looks at it again I will have gotten my money's worth. It's a durable book and well done. The pronunciation guide is great and I look forward to her being able to practice saying the words when she gets older - hopefully I will have the pronunciation down by then.

This is not what you want for water, even for a child
I bought this inner tube based on the positive reviews for using it in water. It is only big enough for a child (about 90 pounds)....worse though, is the pin where you pump in the air. It is enormous, about 4-5 inches big, and is likely to dig into the back of even of a small child. If you think you're buying an inner tube like you'd find at a water park, THIS IS NOT IT.

Rushed Product
I bought this CD without listening to a single song first because I loved the last one so much. Boy was I dissapointed! Aside from a catchy opening track the rest of the CD left me bored. Don't get me wrong, this isn't bad CD, its just not a good one. Nothing overtly original, to me it sound likes songs that were rejected from the pussycat dolls CD. I dont know what happened between this new CD and the last one, but I think Gwen needs to go back to those old producers, or just take more time making a great album instead of rushing one out.Just my opinion

Unreasonable Wait for subscription to start.
I subscribed in late May to MaximumPC and PCGamer. Early July I started getting PCGamer. Still nothing from MaximumPC. I called customer service and they said they had recieved my order June 2nd and to expect my first issue in late September. Thats nearly four months! That is an unreasonable wait relative to the industry standard and clearly outside the stated wait on the order form. I gave one star because the magazine is a good magazine. But at a $8.99 news stand price it is too expensive... so I am left with the choice of spending almost $35 to get the four months worth before my subscription starts (more than the subscription itself) or just missing out on those issue. Very poor customer service.

Don't judge a book by its cover
I saw the author interviewed on C-Span by Brian Lamb and just had to read the book. What really caught my attention was the cover photo of the monument in a Savannah cemetery. The author explained that the cover photo had made the monument so famous that it had to be removed from the cemetery because of the number of people flocking to see it. It is a beautiful, mesmerizing photo and fits the mood of the title perfectly--I give the front cover five stars. But the text...even though the author found himself in the middle of a real-life murder mystery while doing a routine travel piece (what an opportunity!), he failed to deliver any real story. The cover is great, but the story is a real disappointment.

Remember the Commador Vic 20?
This toy looks like it was created in the 70's or 80's. I thought it would be cute for my daughter (age 5) but she kept saying that it looked like our neighbor's baby monitor and she is a 'big girl now.' We returned it because it did not captivate her interest. This may be fun for pre-k or younger but a karaoke machine or CD player would be a better choice.

I should have listened closer to Annas husband when I kept not wanting to finish the book. The best things about this book were the donations to breast cancer research, and the quality paper used to print this book.

Scarier than 'The Exorcist'? I think not. . .
This is probably one of the biggest let-downs in cinema. Hyped as being scarier than 'The Exorcist', it turned out to be nothing but bad videography sprinkled with a liberal dose of vulgarity. And the plot? Three young people throw away their map and walk themselves to the point of exhaustion in circles in the woods, crossing the same stream numerous times. Did anyone think to actually follow the stream downstream? I actually found myself rooting for the 'Blair Witch' at the end. Anyone that stupid deserved to be put out of their misery. As for being scarier than 'The Exorcist', as was claimed in many cinema reviews at the time of its release, this movie doesn't even come close. If you haven't seen 'The Blair Witch', do yourself a favor -- save your money and go see the re-release of 'The Exorcist' at the theater.

Kallmaker gets better and better...
Karin Kallmaker continues to amaze me. The books get better and better. In my opinion this book may not be the steamiest, but certainly is the most well written of them all. It has a more complexity in it's story line than most lesbian novels and holds your interest without fail. I can not overlook it's quantity either. How many times have you bought a book that's so thin, with large type, it equals a 30 minute sitcom? This books content is vast for this style of writing. I've always wondered if Naiad had a built in page limit. For once I'll say this is a great one and a half hour movie.

cloeman barks and andrew harvey are the experts on rumi
this work is derivative of others' works. If you want, read the authors who have translated from the original, have devoted a lifetime study to Rumi's work, with a diverse choice of words in translations, each translation revealing more and different from the one before. To know the real romance and the crippling character of Rumi as well as his divine interests, read books also by people who come from Rumi's part of the world. Zwieg, though admiring Rumi, writes in a New Age tone that may be fine for some. But for people who are interested in the deeper meanings of Rumi's work, it's not in pop psychology, but in religious studies at depth. Being enamoured of a poet is sweet. But, there is far more to give to understanding or giving critique and insights in depth.

STOP! Buy a REAL ITALIAN ONE, Not this knockoff!!
I bought one of these "BonJour" models thinking I was getting the same thing as those I used while studying in Italy. The quality of these asian knockoffs are nowhere near that of the real thing (aside from the rough manufacture, the steam pressure valve broke on mine after three uses, making it useless.)- Check out the Bialetti models on other Amazon pages. World Market also carries a real Italian model from another maker.

Cranky Egotistical Exercise in Nothing
I had high hopes when I picked up the book. There's a great story here -- how people are foolish in their behaviors and expectations with respect to events that transpire around them. However, the book reads more like an exposition of how wonderful the author is in recognizing this effect, and how ridiculous everyone else is for not recognizing this themselves. I'll agree with him that there's huge randomness in who is "lucky enough" to be in the right place, at the right time, practicing the right strategy for that time, in order to get rich. However, there's nothing rigorous in here that tells me that the author's strategy is better -- how do I know he's also not employing a strategy that ultimately is not worth more than anyone else's strategy? He's definitely smarter than the average guy, but lots of smart people have employed poor strategic choices. I'm on the lookout for a better description of this arena.

Does Topor's mother read his writing?
This could be a good story but I am so disgusted by the crude and obscene language that I am having a difficult time forcing myself even to skip through it fast enough to learn the ending. Are there any other readers out there who feel this way or are we just expected to accept this trash talk as the norm? I got this book because it has been compared to John Grisham's "Testament". Reading Torpor certainly reaffirmed my admiration for Grisham. Grisham's characters can express the full range of emotions without foul language. Bye, now, it's back to Grisham with a little Jane Austen on the side for me!

Haribo
as a real german person ( and sorry for my englis, but i try my best ) i have to say these gummy bears taste not like the gummy bears back here in Germany. i come to the US twice a year and the one year i was a bit "homesick", so i bought a bag of my fave german gummy bears. what can i say, the taste was like the original but actually not, even the colors aren`t right. my american friend loves the gummy bears from Germany, so i carry every 6months 30bags into the US. if you love the american version, fine, but if you ever have the chance to get a bag from Germany, try the "original", much better.

Somewhat Confusing Symphony
No problem with the performace or the recording. It's just that the symphony does not seem to work. It never seems to find its rhythm like the Bax No. 3 and No. 4. The movements all seem like separate pieces. I could not figure out what the composer was doing. I would avoid this one unless you really like Bax.

Screen died after about a year
About 50% of the pixels on the screen went out after about a year of usage. A week later, another 50% of the remaining pixels went out. Most of the functionality (for my purposes) remains, but I expect more out of a remote in this higher price range.

I read this book when i was in 3rd grade and i never forgot it. Then because my old teacher went above and beyond and found out that Mrs. Leirner lived in New York City also she invited her to speak to our class about her experience.This book is well written, heartbreaking, moving and not too complex for a child to understand. I think this book should be something everyone reads.

Pressure Guade does not work
The reason I bought this was the built in pressure gauge which reads 10 psi higher than the actual pressure. Its not worth returning because of the shipping. Just disgusted with it.

one of the best
I buy very few dvd series, but after watching the pilot I knew this was one I had to have. Excellent, fascinating, fun dvds of The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency. Worth purchasing to be able to watch again and again. Authentic, believable, interesting, humorous, just loved it. I hope they have another season to expand on Precious Ramotswe's ability to solve mysteries in beautiful Boswana with the help of her friends.

A Haunting Journey
My wife and I recently traveled to the Colorado Plateau and the Grand Canyon. We picked up this cd at one of the visitor centers, popped it into the player in our rental car, and were instantly transported to a whole different reality. I've listened to it several times since then, and in my mind can still see (and feel) the incredible light and shadow of canyon country. For anyone interested in Native American music, this is a must have--a beautifully haunting experience.

CAUTION!
I purchased this drive from Lacie for $279. The manual I downloaded, the PDF, is not the same as this drive. It doesn't look anything like it either. It's no longer listed on Lacie's web site. I've attempted contacting them to ask if they had a PDF for this. I tried contacting their Technical Support, both by phone and email and have yet to reach them. When Amazon sent an email from me their response was "Thank you for you purchase."I well aware that computers and external drives are constantly changing - I've been working with computers for over 20 years but this really takes the cake.Make sure you know what you're buying before your purchase. Talk to someone first.Nancy R. Alexanian

Este es un disco en concierto que actualmente se lo disfrutarán los fans de siempre o los "hard core" fans de Soda. Si no disfrutas de los ritmos ochentosos en Soda, no compres este disco...muy bueno.

Different Battles is a fascinating read.
Different Battles is a truly unusual book. It's a meticulously researched, vividly imagined historical study. But it's also a moving personal memoir--all the more powerful for being understated. On top of all that, it's a fascinating read.The author grew up in Vero Beach, Florida during World War II when German subs were a greater threat along the U.S. East coast than most people realized. The boy's father, Kit Johnson, uses his fishing boat to search for and rescue the survivors of ships torpedoed by the Germans. He later fights a very "different battle" with Alzheimer's. Peter Cremer, the charismatic and somewhat enigmatic Commander of a German U-boat, captures the reader's imagination. But as we gradually come to realize, the author's father is the real hero of the book.

a pulp fiction wannabe lousy movie
lousy script, acting, filming, directing. terrible faded color. trying very hard to be a cool noir but falling too short about nine yards. totally impossible and unbelievable plot. the shooting is worse than most of other bad movies i've ever watched. there's nothing to tell but waste of your time and money.
