0	Has this item changed?	We ordered one of these bowls to complement our Winterberry set. When we received it, we immediately washed it very carefully by hand. Both the green leaves and the red coloring around the base began to come off. We returned it and asked for another to be sent. The second one had the leaves already coming off when we took it out of the box. We are returning it for a refund.The red base of these bowls appeared to be a red plastic film applied over the glass. Our other Winterberry glassware actually has red colored glass for the bases.	negative
1	Great in Airports and at the Gym	I love this product! I can stay on the treadmill for 2 hours if I am watching a good movie. The headphones are not great so I changed them out with my MP3 headphones. The picture is clear and the machine plays well. It is also great on the airplane and in the airport. I even travel with it and watch movies in my hotel room. This is definitely a good buy.	positive
1	It was good but not great	The Jetsons movie had too much music from Tiffany (Judy Jetson) and is missing Coswell Cog's sprockets, Henry Orbit, Rudy the computer, and a lot of comedy. But other wise it was good.	positive
0	Surprisingly poor	This book moves at a snail's pace. As "a novel of the life and times of Wild Bill Hickok" it does nothing to draw the reader in, and care about the characters. When the extensive dream sequence appears in the middle of the book, I was left wondering what King Arthur and the knights of the round table had to do with Wild Bill. Did I miss something? I suppose this is some inferior use of metaphor, but there had been no effort to set it up, and therefore it lacked relevance.Like the other review here I can't understand how this was a winner of the Western Heritage Award for Best Western Novel. I will stick with Spur award winners from now on. For readers who are looking for true western literature with metaphor and imagery, check out Win Blevins "Stone Song." That was a Spur award winner, and one of the best western themed books I've ever read.	negative
0	Okay, But Not the Greatest	This book is okay for what it is -- it tells you which keys to press and which commands to choose to perform different tasks in the Office 2003 programs.However, because this book is published by Microsoft, you don't get an objective, third-party perspective on the different software programs. The authors are never critical of the software itself. They don't steer you to competitors of Microsoft when going to a competitor might be the better choice. The authors don't describe unorthodox work-arounds -- the kind of things that save you time but aren't in official instruction book. I get the feeling this book promotes Microsoft Office 2003 as much as it describes how to use the software.Finally, a little humor would be appreciated by this reader. This book is pretty dry.	negative
0	Yeesh.	The fact that Paris Hilton, of all people, has a record deal, is truly astonishing. I continue to believe that the music industry is going down the tubes, making it's way to the bottom. She's milking her celebrity status for all it's worth, albeit the fact that she hasn't and continues to do NOTHING to keep herself famous.Talent? She completely lacks it, like many other musicians today. The most intelligent quote that's ever fallen out of her mouth was her 15 minute catch phrase, "That's Hot!". Think about that when you decide to check out her album.	negative
1	A good read	good book ! kind of sad. I read the book in one day. I really enjoyed the book but needed better ending	positive
0	Definately the dumbest movie i've ever seen	For starter's i was a big Seagal fan in the late 80's early 90's..his movies were real,raw,and the fight scenes were classic.This has some of the cheesiest one liner's from the whole cast that i've probably EVER seen or heard,even Charles Bronson's Death Wish flicks were'nt this bad.Also the fight scenes are Speed up,slow down,speed up,slow down again,my god just fight.And i shouldnt neglect to mention the computer technology in the movie could have been done by my grandma who can't even run a computer.This is like a horrible matrix rip off with the horrible action motion,stops and starts.And its also plotless.Save yourself the pain and just go watch Finding Nemo.This goes in the movie waste ben.	negative
0	Call of the Wild Review	Call of The Wild ReviewThe Call of the Wild, by: Jack London is an excellent short read. This classic is about a dog named Buck, and his life. Buck goes from being a pampered pet to a sled dog pulling mail for the Canadian government. This book is seven chapters long, and a great book for those of us who like books written from the point of view of animals. However, I wouldn't recommend this for readers who like to challenge themselves, the vocabulary and content of the book is pretty elementary. Make no mistake I think Jack London is a magnificent author, but The Call of the Wild is to short for my taste, and probably most adults.	negative
1	Good Gift	I bought this shirt for my boyfriend as a present because we watch the office together. He absolutely loves it, because blue is his favorite color and he is obsessed with The Office.	positive
1	Best bar none	Without a doubt the best combo of heat and flavor i've ever had, I buy both the original and Xtra hot and use it in just about everything. Buy extra, when your friends try it they will steal your bottle.	positive
0	into the Toilet	Brad must have some young chldren. The first two chapter use "potty " humor add infinitum. He also overdoes the kid book analogies. It is so tiresome and booring that you do not have patience for the rest of the story.From the first page, you just want to throw away the book. Don't wast your timne or money. Read anything else	negative
1	Playing APBA	I have played many types of games in my life but this is the only game that I have played well into my adulthood having started as a teenager. This is the next best thing to being at an actual ballgame and has brought many hours of good clean relaxation. I am a high school math teacher who uses the game in my classroom to demonstrate probability and statistics so I can vouch for its educational value. It is well worth the purchase price for any baseball fan.	positive
1	Passing on Blessings	I am a hospice chaplain and bought this book as a present to the staff. I asked that staff members pass on the book to someone they think needs a blessing. We have hard days. Sometimes someone in our own family is ill or dies. Several staff members told me how much it meant to have this book passed on to them and that they are ordering their own copy, they liked it that much. It is just right for someone busy and needing affirmation to continue on.	positive
0	I've made a Terrible Sin Watching Original Sin.	Original Sin does not make sense,Antonio Banderas(Who has been involved with A Che Guevara Movie and therefore lost my respect,Whom I have never liked and has a horrible accent.)Plays a really Idiotic So-called "Titan Of Industry" falls for a Charlatan or Lady of the night,A lot of Nudity from Angelina Jolie who by the way makes me sick(She kissed her brother and not in a kiss between Siblings but Incest,Gross and she has a Che Tattoo.)Also despite it being "Entertainment"(So-called) and Fiction.It goes beyond that,It is historically Inaccurate Cuba does not Look Like Mexico and Several other but typical of Movies and Hollywood and popular mindset in General about Cuba.The movie is just sleaze,a Notch above Skin-a-max flick.The acting is horrible and the buy a wife storyline is worst.	negative
0	Not Working	I loved this game as a kid and my kids were so excited to play it. It says system requirements for Windows XP, which we have, but it keeps shutting down and sending error reports. So frustrated with this product! Wonderful game if it works likes it says it should!	negative
0	Alexander Disappoints	If you loved the Prydain Chronicles then don't buy this book. This effort is lackluster at best. Alexander offers a disjointed, unconnected narrative that is at the very least unsatisfying and disappointing. While Alexander's notion of a time travelling cat has merit, his execution lacks the punch of his other writing. The historical vignettes aren't drawn out to their full potential despite the alluring historical figures Alexander places Jason and Gareth beside, nothing materializes. It's certainly not that I hated this work, I didn't, it's just that I can't fathom why I'd ever read it again. To me, that's the most disappointing thing of all if you've loved Alexander's previous works.	negative
0	Waste of money	If you don't care if you can see through this just fine, then it's ok. I wanted it to actually keep stuff from showing through, which it didn't.	negative
0	Hooper is not a reliable source for Lewis material.	Serious Lewis scholars have known for years that significant questions exist about the veracity of Walter Hooper with respect to his relationship with the famous Christian writer. Kathryn Lindskoog, among others has written extensively on this subject.With this in mind, works by or about Lewis, which are written by, edited by or annotated by Hooper must be considered of questionable validity and value.	negative
1	Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant	While I pretty much agree with all the reviews I have read of "White Ladder", I just wanted to point out to the reviewer from Winston-Salem, NC that David Gray did not write "Say Hello, Wave Goodbye". That song is a cover of a 1982 synth-pop classic written & performed by Soft Cell ("Tainted Love"). I love that song, & how David Gray interpreted it. A beautiful way to close the record. I always stop the CD after that song ends...although I really like "Babylon", I still am unsure why Mr. Gray chose to close the record with an abbreviated reprise ("Babylon II"). ALL IN ALL-- A BRILLIANT RECORD BY A BRILLIANT ARTIST. BUY BUY BUY!	positive
0	Watered down Whirlwind...	Unfortunately, James Clavell and his publisher fought during the last few years of his life. The result was that his final Asian saga novel, Whirlwind, is out of print. Escape is a watered down version of that novel, developed for a movie script. The core story is still there, but to get Clavell's intended story, buy Whirlwind at a used bookstore or online auction site.	negative
1	In the Sabbath "Second Tier," but Still Worth Buying	Perhaps the pressure was too great for our heroes to follow up on Heaven and Hell with another masterpiece, so instead they put out Mob Rules, a respectable though hardly life-changing release. Perhaps Dio was right when in an interview it was like the band was trying to repeat what worked; they never stoop to self-parody, but the disc never quite touches the soul the way its predecessor does. "Turn Up The Night" is like "Son of Neon Knights," and we can make other comparisons, but Vinnie Appice sounds right at home, Tony's solo in "Over and Over" is one of his best ever, and the bass lines are (as usual) just mind-blowing. Get it.	positive
1	In a word...........JOYFUL!	Paramhansa Yogananda once again demonstrates his abounding joy, grace, wisdom and warmth through this rapturous work. Master Yogananda has the uncanny ability to reach his readers/students with a most liberating and evocative style of teaching that melds unabridged clarity with singular wit. I don't mean to imply that he is flippant, but he will use the humor of irony to illuminate one's proclivities towards constipated thinking. 5 stars.	positive
1	Brother 1034d 3/4 serger	Great serger for a great price. Just like what most of the reviews on this machine,,, wonderful.I was very cautious, because of all the threading combinations. But, Brother did something that was so useful in having the machine prethreaded and ready to go. It took all the scariness away. The videos were very helpful, The book was also helpful.I was up and running in minutes. I have had the machine for three weeks now. I completely rethreaded several times with different colored threads, no problems.Just serging away... having fun.	positive
0	Don't be this Cheap !!!	It rarely attaches correctly and almost never locks down so it leaks and rarly fills the tire with air and never completely. Not to mention the secondary way for the pump to connect is weak and fails constantly. Expect to loose your water bottle holder.	negative
1	CHICAGO'S IN THE HOUSE	RON TRENT IS HOT!!!! IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT CHICAGO HOUSE SOUNDS LIKE, THEN THIS IS THE CD TO TAKE YOU TO CHICAGO!!! TRENT IS ANOTHER PROUDUCT OF OF SHOOL.	positive
1	Very Satisfied !	First, I received this item about five days ahead of schedule - and I live in the state of Hawaii!Instructions to hook it up - mmm...mmm..."moderately difficult"...I will say that I understood how to hook it up with and without a cable box AFTER THE FACT. They're printed on the box! However, I used it the same day that I received it.It searches fast and it does overshoot the target (now I know what that means...).It has a commercial skip. It plays non-HDTV recordings very clearly. It stops at the point I press stop (while recording). It seems like I can view my videotaped soap operas faster than I did before. It gives you speed options to record (SP, SLP). It has a timer to set when recording. It has a display clock.I am enjoying this Panasonic (whose saying used to be "Just slightly ahead of time") VCR very much.Pameli.	positive
1	Tasty and Delicious	I heard Jessicas Bullet on Sirus radio. I bought the album right away and loved the whole thing. Listening to it is like eating tasty and delicious sandwich.	positive
0	Blah	not the book for me, only bought it because it was required reading for one of my graduate online classes	negative
1	Hook filled songs that tell a powerful story	Any critic would approach with Caution a CD by a former star of "The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers." Surprise. Dennis native Amy Jo Johnson writes hook-filled songs and can tell a powerful story (as in "Crazier Than You," a love song inspired by her parents). As a singer, Johnson can deliver songs that approximate Kate Bush at her most Goth and Alanis Morissette at her most mellow. More power to her.	positive
1	Family dysfunctionfest at its best!	Quite possibly the funniest movie that I, and my dysfuctional family, have seen in a long time - Have you had your serving of mucus today?	positive
1	This is a great book!	All I can say it "Wow!". A Must-Read for any Lego Mindstorms User who wants to unlock the real power of their Lego Mindstorms System. After reading through the in-depth NQC section, I went from not knowing a thing about what to type in to program to being able to program quite well (If I do say so myself).It's a great book! Thanks	positive
1	I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!!!!!	THIS MUSIC IS TOTALLY SOME THIN TO CHILL TO. EVERYONE COULD LOVE THIS AND WE COULD MAKE ICP THE GREATEST MOST POPULAR ARTIST EVER	positive
1	Frigidaire ACs have gotten even better	This model is excellent. I ordered it to replace a similar Frigidaire from 2003. The older model was fine, but this new one is really great-- excellent energy efficiency rating, updated controls with remote, and programmable temperature and fan adjustment to perfection! I set it exactly how I needed it for a comfortable night. Never too cold nor not cold enough. It's also quieter, and according to my friend who installed it for me and got rid of the older one, much much lighter.At such a great value and such quick (and free) deliver on Amazon, I am really satisfied.	positive
0	Subdued performances	All the performances on here are pretty subdued; it seems that Elvis never really cuts loose a la "Burning Love" or "Promised Land" which is disappointing. While the title track "Raised on Rock" is ok, it leaves you wishing they had pumped it up a notch or two. That song seemed like it was tailor made to be an Elvis rocker, but they didn't let the guitars and drums really go and as a consequence Elvis never really takes off on the song. That seems to be the case for the entire album. "Three Corn Patches" a country / blues song is the only song I found really interesting. Overall, I was expecting more from this album but was disappointed.Maybe "Raised on Rock" should be the next Elvis remix candidate. If they would pump-up the guitars and bass on that song, it might really rock.	negative
1	Pleased with bottle warmer	My husband and I have found this bottle warmer to be very effective and work great for our needs. We use the Avent bottles and have had great success with this product for heating them up. It heats them evenly, unlike the microwave. We noticed that it's important to read the instructions thoroughly before using it. It's also important to keep the heating chamber cleaned out and free of water deposits. This caused ours to under-heat the bottles. It took a little getting used to in order to understand how much water to use for what size bottle we're trying to heat, but over all we like it and we've gotten a lot of use out of our bottle warmer.	positive
0	a disappointment - I expected much better from Sony	The headphones are unpadded and quite uncomfortable. The FM reception was poor - I heard plenty of static on some local stations. I believe Sony made a major design error in not adding an antenna to this radio. The 30 presets include 15 FM, plus 5 each for TV, AM, and weather. I wish there had been more for AM. Since I could get only one weather channel, which was about 60% static, the 5 presets went to waste. It is interesting to be able to listen to TV stations on a radio, but Sony needs to go back to the drawing board to make this device listener-friendly.	negative
0	This album absolutly sucks! Don't let the artwork fool you!	Don't buy this album if you don't want to hear garbage, wannabe gangsta rap. I thought it would sound ight or possibly even be somewhat rare. Nope, neither well sounding or rare! Sorry POET-T, keep rhyming on...	negative
1	" I hit the &^%#$ brain...you mean the movie lied ?"	One of the best lines from this movie.This has to be one of the funniest and best zombie movies out there. From great one liners (mainly by Zombies)...to good special effects. This movie should be re-released.The re-make of Night of the Living Dead is the only Zombie movie to top this one.	positive
1	Great Read!	I was looking for something to help me organize my office. As owner of a busy company, I need all the help I can get in keeping things straight. This book was recommended to me by a friend and it was exactly what I was lookging for.I found it to be very easy to read and easy to implement. The structure of the book was organized (go figure) which helped me fit it into my busy schedule and start implementing recommendations immediately. "Organize Your Office in No Time" is filled with great ideas and easy to understand tips and tricks for organizing my workspace and I highly recommend it.Michael DonnellyMiami, FL	positive
0	So stupid!	So, I got really excited about this as soon as I saw it. Well, then right before I ordered it, after I had read all the amazing reviews, I saw there's no coverage in two states in the US. I live in one of them. COME ON!!At least get some coverage in Montana! Even Wyoming has coverage! I would have loved this if there was coverage here. But, there isn't. So now, I hate it.	negative
0	A Terrible Edition of a Wonderful Book	This is an important and worthwhile study, and relatively unsung. I recommend reading the book, but you'd be making a big mistake if you tried to read it in this edition. I'm not sure how the book was printed, but it looks like a photoreproduction, and a sketchy one at that, of an old, tiny, and all-but-unreadable typeface. The publishing information indicates that it is an edition from India in the 1940s, and I'd guess that the original typesetting was pretty old by the time this printing was produced. In short, it looks like a photocopy of a worn-out setting of bad type. Some pages are illegible. A few others, near the beginning, are actually missing. Caudwell was a promising author before his early, tragic death, and he deserves better than this. So do you.	negative
0	Not his Best	Having finished the Camel Club as well as the Collectors, I wanted to read some the writers earlier works. After finishing Split Second, this was next on my list. The characters introduced to us in Split Second are no longer involvedwith the Government, but are working together in Virginia, the home state of the writer. The plot is multi faceted with numerous subplots and characters being found to exist. On numerous occasions, less is more and that is an apt description of this work as many of the characters seem to be forced into the story. It begins slowly, picks up rapidly and finally wallows in the twin areas of mediocrity and confusion. This is a disappointing work from a most talented writer.	negative
0	John	Not a good choice. If you do not have a small head the band will feel too tight. The eye covers do block out the light nicely but it is hard and not very flexible. The only reason I did not return this item is because the return shipping would be more than the refund.	negative
0	Test this cream on small area first!	I smoothed this cream on my face and neck, as the package directed. I woke up the next morning with a burn on all areas where the ROC night cream had been applied. Perhaps that is how it works? It burns the wrinkles off? Please test this cream in a small area before applying to your entire face and neck if you want to avoid my fate. The skin on my neck is actually peeling now, and it itches horribly! OUCH!	negative
1	Jonestown: An failed experiment in socialism	Every one of the useless Occupy movements that promote socialism at the expense of capitalism should read this book. In fact, every person that voted for our current president and has deluded fantasies about some socialist utopia should be forced to read this book.	positive
0	Disgrace	The person who wrote this, even the person who THOUGHT of making this movie should be banned from EVER going into Hollywood ever again!I must agree with "viewer from the moon". An African-American raised by Native Americans is a Secret Service agent right after the civil war? Sounds like something that should've happened in the past, but is COMPLETELY ridiculous. Don't give this movie your time.	negative
0	Avoid This Box Set! Great Songs horrible idea	I ordered this because I love most of Robbie Williams songs and this box set containes 19 chart hits across 19 individual CD singles. What a waste! I think the outer packaging is excellent but who wants to change a cd after every song??I recommend the Asian edition...much better.	negative
1	Very Nice Book for ID'ing Trees	great photos, descriptions in helping us ID trees in our area. book has a good feel and a good size.	positive
0	Couldn't Swing Even If He Was Trapped In A Playground!	Very calculated music. Not jazz in the very least. Arista should be ashamed of releasing the same old thing over and over from this guy. For those of you who want to explore some TRUE jazz and not this stuff, try using your Amazon.com search engine and use the following key words: Brubeck, Miles, Weather Report, Getz, Ellington, McLaughlin, Blakey, Coltrane, Monk, Mingus, Montgomery. Music of this genre is NOT jazz and is barely acceptable as music.	negative
1	Religulous review	This is a good comedy first and foremost. It also shows some of the foolishness and really down right retarded stuff these religions believe and preach. Maybe one day these religous freaks will realize there brains do work if they try to use them.	positive
0	CBS, shame on you!	Less than 80 minutes of music on 2 cds is a sham. I don't care how good the music is, which by the way is as good as it gets.	negative
1	Seven Mary Three is back with a Vengeance	This album is by far one of the most powerful collection of songs put out in a long time.Starting out with Settle up all the thru Subway Tunnel Microphones the album will please all who enjoy pure rock.	positive
0	What an Insult!	I can't Beleive it! these guys are acctually trying to Impersonate Oasis......... Face it guys, you can't! as a massive Oasis fan, i can only take this C.D as an insult! The music is about the best bit of the lot, but where the voice is concerned........Geez man!	negative
0	If I wanted a dead tree I'd be happy with what I got.	I ordered this for my boyfriend as a gift and it arrived half dead and on its way to completing the process.	negative
1	Fun and Informative	Reading this book you start to feel like you can predict what Kurin will say when faced with different situations. This is not a bad thing. What I mean is, you learn how he looks at his job as an anthropologist/ethnographer/broker of culture. The discussions of how the visiting teams and the American hosts had to overcome assumptions and produce accurate, honest, sensitive cultural events for the Smithsonian is really fascinating. We love Kurin from his first chapter (Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief) through the freedom he allows the Festival of India performers to transform the festival, into his head-butting with Soviet beaurocrats, and right to his conclusion when he discusses the future-- globalism, tourism, indigenous products, culture policy and more. Kurin is doing amazing work and I am thankful he found time to write this book and let us know about it.	positive
0	Black by Kenneth Cole Scentless	I was very disappointed in this product. Must have been old as it did not hold it's scent past putting it on!	negative
1	Good Quality Books	This was a gift for my daughter who now has the entire series. She loves them and they are a good quality hard bound books.	positive
0	Poor	Michael Mann's glazed cinematograpy and MTV look worked in "Miami Vice", since it was a TV show. But it doesn't work in films (nor did it work for "The Insider" nor "Thief" nor "Manhunter" either). And, aside from the approach made on this movie, the plot itself is pretty patchy. DeNiro gives a good subtle performance, which makes me ask, What happened to Pacino? He is so over-the-top in his acting now! In "Godfather" I and II he gave such subtle, understated performances, they were among the best in film history. Now he is gruff and shouts all the time, like he has lost his hearing and thinks he needs to speak louder than he does. There is no nuance whatsoever to this, nor his other latest perfomances. Didn't he watch DeNiro act on this film, and think to tone his own acting down? Apparently not....This movie isn't terrible, but it ain't that great either.	negative
1	Fantastic	This is the best compilation of the year. By departing from its "traditional" stuff, Wilco shows its extreme talent level in this release with Bragg.	positive
1	My All-Time Favorite Book	Jane Eyre is a wonderful masterpiece! I absolutely love it. The characters are so well drawn that you become one with Jane and everything she feels and endures. Mr. Rochester has to be the greatest male figure in literature! Move over Heathcliff! I got goosebumps by the end of the book and wanted to immedietly flip it over and begin again.	positive
0	You cant fix a broken house by adding a garage	There are sooo many things still broken with the ground game and now SOE tells us that those issues will be pushed back 6 to 10 months to make this new expansion. If the first part of the game is still bugged after over a year, what do you think the expansion will be like?If you think star wars should have people run around with swords and you dont mind the developers care nothing for the players and you dont mind being killed by the hundreds of Jedi on each server then maybe this game is for you.	negative
1	Brecht's Alienation	The book is a good guide on tracing the evolution of the notion of alienation in theater. A different route from the naturalistic theater tradition, alienation aims at "extracting" emotions in theater and sticking with the message and aim of a play. Peter Thompson's work indirectly traces the idea of showing that acting is just plain "acting". He does this by reviewing the various experiences of staging Brecht's classic "Mother Courage and Her Children". For actors dreaming to just plainly "act" in theater (acting a character and not being a character), the good is a good guide. For those dreaming to be the mother in Mother Courage and The Mother, Shente in The Good Person of Setzuan, and St. Joan in St. Joan of the Stockyards--learn from this book.	positive
1	I want Part 2 now!	I think that this is one of the best Marvel Books I have read. My favorite part was during the Broadway when the shark came out of nowhere and ruined the play. In the end when Peter and Mary Jane are looking through the photo album and they found out he has a sister. I think that his sister is Pity. Yet you never with these kind of books.	positive
0	Predictable and Bland	I was forced to read this book as the main text for a graduate level class in education, and I wish that I had dropped the course. Spring's version of the history of the American education system became tiresome and bland within the first fifty pages of the book.	negative
0	Horrid Analog Quality	I have bought many older albums released on cd. CD didn't exist in my youth. Many have been fully remastered. They sound great. This isn't one of them. This has to be the worst ever. It sounds like the whole album was recorded underwater!!!!	negative
1	A good echo of the huge work	How do I find the time, after attending the entire Ring Cycle, to listen to all that amazing music? Here's how -- a continuous sampling straight from the four operas.	positive
1	Good bracket, go with a longer one for 50 inch TV's	Was disappointed with this bracket when I first looked at it, but after hanging it I am completely pleased with it.I have hung several friends TV's and this bracket has been the nicest of all of them, despite being the least expensive. The thin design allows the TV to lie closer to the wall then most brackets. The dowels in the pivot mechanism allows effortless positioning, that retains its position without restraint.The only downfall of this bracket is that if you are using it on a 50 inch TV, go with the model with that supports 60 inch displays (ST660)so that you can mount the TV to three studs vs two.	positive

1	If you really want to understand	If you really want to understand sailing and what makes the boat go through the water and why this is the book. Its not a light bedtime read. You do have to think about what is being said and explained but the explanations are complete enough to appeal to an engineer (as myself) yet presented with enough discussion that a non-engineer with an interest in the details can enjoy it as well. Although the equations and formulas are given, you don't need to know sophisticated math to understand. Its not a cookbook to sail faster but if you apply the material presented here, you cannot but sail faster, better and more efficiently.	positive

1	No book is perfect, but this one came close	And Then There Were None was an amazing novel written by one of the greatest mystery authors, Agatha Christie. The author gets inside the heads of each and every character. It is suspenseful and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Take a ride through Agatha Cristie's And Then There Were None and be shocked at how the story all comes together in the end.	positive
1	Great Juicer serves my needs	I borrowed a friends Juiceman JM400 Juiceman Jr for about a month, so I was familiar with the juicer. Then shopped here for one. Purchased a re manufactured one for an amazing price and have not been disappointed. Mine was half the price of my friends and it runs quieter than hers. It was shipped fast and arrived much quicker then they stated it would. Very pleased with this purchase and who it was purchased from.	positive
0	No changes here	I do like crossing the t's on the top, and writing my first initial as the star A, but other than that, I generally find it a rather ugly script.

1	A Classic	Ishiguro's The Remains of the Day gracefully reveals a noble life of an Engish butler, Mr. Stevens, who, for several years, has devoted his whole life for 'greatness' and 'dignity.' His dedication to Darlington Hall, unfortunately, deprives him of the only love he should have had. A beautifully written book that will truly touch your heart and leave you 'dignified.' One of the best books ever written in English of our time. At just over 200 pages, this novel exercises the restraint so eminent in its protagonist. The reliability of the narration is a constant query; Stevens' blind loyalty to his seniors is evident throughout, though it only serves to enhance the development of the plot. It is a novel that remains alarmingly relevant to this day.	positive

0	Mic Trouble	I first bought (yes I said `first') this item when I got the set of Karaoke Revolution disk. Boy did we have fun, then, at first it was just a little noise coming from the speakers. Than intermittent shorting out of the sound. Then nothing. This after just a few days.Must admit Amazon was great in the way they handled the matter, they asked me to return the item, and sure enough shortly after a replacement came Boy did we have fun(of course we handled this new one with baby gloves), Did not help, within two weeks the same thing happened again, dead, kaput.I had to buy another one (this time one that I saw in a store). So I am now on the third one within weeks. Other wise works pretty good (that is, when and while it works)First two were very easy to go bad, hope I have better luck third time a round.Will keep you up dated on how long this one works.	negative
1	A Classic	This is one of the best critiques of right wing pundits around. It's well researched, and hilarious. The chapters on Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reilly alone are worth the price, but he does much, much more in this terrific book.Once you start, you won't be able to put it down. Read it in a place where they won't mind your laughing out loud, and if you are eating or drinking coffee, have plenty of napkins with you. It's that funny.	positive
0	Extremely Hard to Put Together - Not intended for Children	I purchased this for my 5-year old son. There is no way on earth he could put this thing together. I spent over an hour and still could not get past 3-4 levels. The pieces fall apart constantly and if the blocks are not turned exactly the right way, the marbles fall all over the place. I would not recommend this for any child under the age of at least 10, unless the adult wants to make the whole thing themselves. I returned this and purchased a plastic inexpensive version which at least he can have fun with.	negative
1	Great movie, fast delivery (pre-sale) and great savings!	So, my daughter has been waiting for this Blu-ray since we saw it in the theater. We pre-ordered it as soon as it was available for us to do so. We got it yesterday, 3/29, watched it...we all loved watching it at home, mainly because she loves to dance to all the music and was not able to do so in the theater. Both are great..theater and home for different reasons of course. The storyline is sweet, sad, scary and brave. Most kids will not experience what she did, but the magical connection between Rapunzel and Eugene was written very well. You will thoroughly enjoy this movie by Disney!On another note, I want to give Amazon.com some credit, they gave me a guaranteed low price if I pre-ordered and I just got my $8 refund. Thanks for keeping your promise!	positive
0	Thought it was good until I went to law school	I bought this before I began law school and thought it was fabulous. Then I started following its advice. First of all, the LEEWS program it recommends is a huge waste of money. I went. I learned nothing. The guy spends all day telling you that he's going to teach you something fabulous, but he never actually does. I did very well first semester, but my grades were in NO part due to anything I learned in this course. So take the advice in the book lightly. It sounds good, but some of it is completely wrong. Also, I see the comments above that the books that are out of print aren't - the ones I tried to get that weren't out of print were all backordered 4-6 weeks. I'd really like to know what sort of affiliation the author of this book has with other programs.	negative
1	Really fun for the price	I happen to have liked the limited location, and once you got used the forest navigation it truly wasn't hard to figure out where you were after you clicked around a bit. At the end I didn't need the map hardly at all. The only frustrations was towards the end, I needed a specific item and I couldn't find it for nothing. I eventually looked it up on the internet and turns out {spoiler- the gloves are in the sink-lol}*All in all, great comprehensive game - finished it in a day and a half.	positive

1	It'll surprise you...	This is one of those albums that gets more catchy and good the more you listen to it. I think people should give it a few listens (say 5-10) before passing judgment.

Nevertheless, Foo Fighters is BY FAR the best rock band out there right now. Down with Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock!	positive
0	Just plain bad	Incredibly boring, repetitive and unimaginative sludgy thumping EBM. Every song is exactly (EXACTLY) the same, with the same rhythm and approximately the same lyrics. I would admire Funker Vogt's work as a single military concept album (the uniformity of music fits the theme), but they keep churning out the exact same stuff on every single disc.They are essentially a one-trick band. I actually quite like some of their remixes (they've done particularly good work with Velvet Acid Christ and Front Line Assembly), but their original work is just plain bad. If you're looking for angry and hard-pounding stuff that actually has some art to it, check out Suicide Commando's industrial / EBM or Combichrist's grinding electro.	negative

0	Save your money.	I bought this unit to replace my old one which I use to play my ipod in my car. Right out of the box, sound quality was garbage. Very echo-y and for some reason the sound was not evenly and appropriately distributed between the left and right channels. It also had a delay between he left and right channels.

1	Smoothing, but not for people with longer torsos.	I bought this to wear under summer dresses without revealing panty lines, and to smooth out bumps. It does a pretty good job of smoothing things out, but I feel I must always yank up the top when not using the detachable bra straps. This item would work better for someone with a shorter torso. The legs do bind a bit, but overall, it's a comfortable garment. I haven't worn it in hot weather nor have I had to use the gusset.	positive

Has this item changed?

We ordered one of these bowls to complement our Winterberry set. When we received it, we immediately washed it very carefully by hand. Both the green leaves and the red coloring around the base began to come off. We returned it and asked for another to be sent. The second one had the leaves already coming off when we took it out of the box. We are returning it for a refund.The red base of these bowls appeared to be a red plastic film applied over the glass. Our other Winterberry glassware actually has red colored glass for the bases.

Great in Airports and at the Gym

I love this product! I can stay on the treadmill for 2 hours if I am watching a good movie. The headphones are not great so I changed them out with my MP3 headphones.

Surprisingly poor

This book moves at a snail's pace. As "a novel of the life and times of Wild Bill Hickok" it does nothing to draw the reader in, and care about the characters. When the extensive dream sequence appears in the middle of the book, I was left wondering what King Arthur and the knights of the round table had to do with Wild Bill. Did I miss something? I suppose this is some inferior use of metaphor, but there had been no effort to set it up, and therefore it lacked relevance.Like the other review here I can't understand how this was a winner of the Western Heritage Award for Best Western Novel. I will stick with Spur award winners from now on. For readers who are looking for true western literature with metaphor and imagery, check out Win Blevins "Stone Song." That was a Spur award winner, and one of the best western themed books I've ever read.

Okay, But Not the Greatest

This book is okay for what it is -- it tells you which keys to press and which commands to choose to perform different tasks in the Office 2003 programs.However, because this book is published by Microsoft, you don't get an objective, third-party perspective on the different software programs. The authors are never critical of the software itself. They don't steer you to competitors of Microsoft when going to a competitor might be the better choice. The authors don't describe unorthodox work-arounds -- the kind of things that save you time but aren't in official instruction book. I get the feeling this book promotes Microsoft Office 2003 as much as it describes how to use the software.Finally, a little humor would be appreciated by this reader. This book is pretty dry.

Yeesh.

The fact that Paris Hilton, of all people, has a record deal, is truly astonishing. I continue to believe that the music industry is going down the tubes, making it's way to the bottom. She's milking her celebrity status for all it's worth, albeit the fact that she hasn't and continues to do NOTHING to keep herself famous.Talent? She completely lacks it, like many other musicians today. The most intelligent quote that's ever fallen out of her mouth was her 15 minute catch phrase, "That's Hot!". Think about that when you decide to check out her album.

For starter's i was a big Seagal fan in the late 80's early 90's..his movies were real,raw,and the fight scenes were classic.This has some of the cheesiest one liner's from the whole cast that i've probably EVER seen or heard,even Charles Bronson's Death Wish flicks were'nt this bad.Also the fight scenes are Speed up,slow down,speed up,slow down again,my god just fight.And i shouldnt neglect to mention the computer technology in the movie could have been done by my grandma who can't even run a computer.This is like a horrible matrix rip off with the horrible action motion,stops and starts.And its also plotless.Save yourself the pain and just go watch Finding Nemo.This goes in the movie waste ben.

Call of the Wild Review

Call of The Wild ReviewThe Call of the Wild, by: Jack London is an excellent short read. This classic is about a dog named Buck, and his life. Buck goes from being a pampered pet to a sled dog pulling mail for the Canadian government. This book is seven chapters long, and a great book for those of us who like books written from the point of view of animals. However, I wouldn't recommend this for readers who like to challenge themselves, the vocabulary and content of the book is pretty elementary. Make no mistake I think Jack London is a magnificent author, but The Call of the Wild is to short for my taste, and probably most adults.

Playing APBA

I have played many types of games in my life but this is the only game that I have played well into my adulthood having started as a teenager. This is the next best thing to being at an actual ballgame and has brought many hours of good clean relaxation. I am a high school math teacher who uses the game in my classroom to demonstrate probability and statistics so I can vouch for its educational value. It is well worth the purchase price for any baseball fan.

Passing on Blessings

I am a hospice chaplain and bought this book as a present to the staff. I asked that staff members pass on the book to someone they think needs a blessing. We have hard days. Sometimes someone in our own family is ill or dies. Several staff members told me how much it meant to have this book passed on to them and that they are ordering their own copy, they liked it that much. It is just right for someone busy and needing affirmation to continue on.

Alexander Disappoints

If you loved the Prydain Chronicles then don't buy this book. This effort is lackluster at best. Alexander offers a disjointed, unconnected narrative that is at the very least unsatisfying and disappointing. While Alexander's notion of a time travelling cat has merit, his execution lacks the punch of his other writing. The historical vignettes aren't drawn out to their full potential despite the alluring historical figures Alexander places Jason and Gareth beside, nothing materializes. It's certainly not that I hated this work, I didn't, it's just that I can't fathom why I'd ever read it again. To me, that's the most disappointing thing of all if you've loved Alexander's previous works.

Hooper is not a reliable source for Lewis material.

Serious Lewis scholars have known for years that significant questions exist about the veracity of Walter Hooper with respect to his relationship with the famous Christian writer. Kathryn Lindskoog, among others has written extensively on this subject.With this in mind, works by or about Lewis, which are written by, edited by or annotated by Hooper must be considered of questionable validity and value.

Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant

While I pretty much agree with all the reviews I have read of "White Ladder", I just wanted to point out to the reviewer from Winston-Salem, NC that David Gray did not write "Say Hello, Wave Goodbye". That song is a cover of a 1982 synth-pop classic written & performed by Soft Cell ("Tainted Love"). I love that song, & how David Gray interpreted it. A beautiful way to close the record. I always stop the CD after that song ends...although I really like "Babylon", I still am unsure why Mr. Gray chose to close the record with an abbreviated reprise ("Babylon II"). ALL IN ALL-- A BRILLIANT RECORD BY A BRILLIANT ARTIST. BUY BUY BUY!

Watered down Whirlwind...

Unfortunately, James Clavell and his publisher fought during the last few years of his life. The result was that his final Asian saga novel, Whirlwind, is out of print. Escape is a watered down version of that novel, developed for a movie script. The core story is still there, but to get Clavell's intended story, buy Whirlwind at a used bookstore or online auction site.

In the Sabbath "Second Tier," but Still Worth Buying

Perhaps the pressure was too great for our heroes to follow up on Heaven and Hell with another masterpiece, so instead they put out Mob Rules, a respectable though hardly life-changing release. Perhaps Dio was right when in an interview it was like the band was trying to repeat what worked; they never stoop to self-parody, but the disc never quite touches the soul the way its predecessor does. "Turn Up The Night" is like "Son of Neon Knights," and we can make other comparisons, but Vinnie Appice sounds right at home, Tony's solo in "Over and Over" is one of his best ever, and the bass lines are (as usual) just mind-blowing. Get it.

In a word...........JOYFUL!

Paramhansa Yogananda once again demonstrates his abounding joy, grace, wisdom and warmth through this rapturous work. Master Yogananda has the uncanny ability to reach his readers/students with a most liberating and evocative style of teaching that melds unabridged clarity with singular wit. I don't mean to imply that he is flippant, but he will use the humor of irony to illuminate one's proclivities towards constipated thinking. 5 stars.

Great serger for a great price. Just like what most of the reviews on this machine,,, wonderful.I was very cautious, because of all the threading combinations. But, Brother did something that was so useful in having the machine prethreaded and ready to go. It took all the scariness away. The videos were very helpful, The book was also helpful.I was up and running in minutes. I have had the machine for three weeks now. I completely rethreaded several times with different colored threads, no problems.Just serging away... having fun.

Very Satisfied !

First, I received this item about five days ahead of schedule - and I live in the state of Hawaii!Instructions to hook it up - mmm...mmm..."moderately difficult"...I will say that I understood how to hook it up with and without a cable box AFTER THE FACT. They're printed on the box! However, I used it the same day that I received it.It searches fast and it does overshoot the target (now I know what that means...).It has a commercial skip. It plays non-HDTV recordings very clearly. It stops at the point I press stop (while recording). It seems like I can view my videotaped soap operas faster than I did before. It gives you speed options to record (SP, SLP). It has a timer to set when recording. It has a display clock.I am enjoying this Panasonic (whose saying used to be "Just slightly ahead of time") VCR very much.Pameli.

Any critic would approach with Caution a CD by a former star of "The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers." Surprise. Dennis native Amy Jo Johnson writes hook-filled songs and can tell a powerful story (as in "Crazier Than You," a love song inspired by her parents). As a singer, Johnson can deliver songs that approximate Kate Bush at her most Goth and Alanis Morissette at her most mellow. More power to her.

I set it exactly how I needed it for a comfortable night. Never too cold nor not cold enough. It's also quieter, and according to my friend who installed it for me and got rid of the older one, much much lighter.At such a great value and such quick (and free) deliver on Amazon, I am really satisfied.

Subdued performances

All the performances on here are pretty subdued; it seems that Elvis never really cuts loose a la "Burning Love" or "Promised Land" which is disappointing. While the title track "Raised on Rock" is ok, it leaves you wishing they had pumped it up a notch or two. That song seemed like it was tailor made to be an Elvis rocker, but they didn't let the guitars and drums really go and as a consequence Elvis never really takes off on the song. That seems to be the case for the entire album. "Three Corn Patches" a country / blues song is the only song I found really interesting. Overall, I was expecting more from this album but was disappointed.Maybe "Raised on Rock" should be the next Elvis remix candidate. If they would pump-up the guitars and bass on that song, it might really rock.

Pleased with bottle warmer

My husband and I have found this bottle warmer to be very effective and work great for our needs. We use the Avent bottles and have had great success with this product for heating them up. It heats them evenly, unlike the microwave. We noticed that it's important to read the instructions thoroughly before using it. It's also important to keep the heating chamber cleaned out and free of water deposits. This caused ours to under-heat the bottles. It took a little getting used to in order to understand how much water to use for what size bottle we're trying to heat, but over all we like it and we've gotten a lot of use out of our bottle warmer.

a disappointment - I expected much better from Sony

The headphones are unpadded and quite uncomfortable. The FM reception was poor - I heard plenty of static on some local stations. I believe Sony made a major design error in not adding an antenna to this radio. The 30 presets include 15 FM, plus 5 each for TV, AM, and weather. I wish there had been more for AM. Since I could get only one weather channel, which was about 60% static, the 5 presets went to waste. It is interesting to be able to listen to TV stations on a radio, but Sony needs to go back to the drawing board to make this device listener-friendly.

A Terrible Edition of a Wonderful Book

This is an important and worthwhile study, and relatively unsung. I recommend reading the book, but you'd be making a big mistake if you tried to read it in this edition. I'm not sure how the book was printed, but it looks like a photoreproduction, and a sketchy one at that, of an old, tiny, and all-but-unreadable typeface. The publishing information indicates that it is an edition from India in the 1940s, and I'd guess that the original typesetting was pretty old by the time this printing was produced. In short, it looks like a photocopy of a worn-out setting of bad type. Some pages are illegible. A few others, near the beginning, are actually missing. Caudwell was a promising author before his early, tragic death, and he deserves better than this. So do you.

Not his Best

Having finished the Camel Club as well as the Collectors, I wanted to read some the writers earlier works. After finishing Split Second, this was next on my list. The characters introduced to us in Split Second are no longer involvedwith the Government, but are working together in Virginia, the home state of the writer. The plot is multi faceted with numerous subplots and characters being found to exist. On numerous occasions, less is more and that is an apt description of this work as many of the characters seem to be forced into the story. It begins slowly, picks up rapidly and finally wallows in the twin areas of mediocrity and confusion. This is a disappointing work from a most talented writer.

Every one of the useless Occupy movements that promote socialism at the expense of capitalism should read this book. In fact, every person that voted for our current president and has deluded fantasies about some socialist utopia should be forced to read this book.

Disgrace

The person who wrote this, even the person who THOUGHT of making this movie should be banned from EVER going into Hollywood ever again!I must agree with "viewer from the moon". An African-American raised by Native Americans is a Secret Service agent *right* after the civil war? Sounds like something that *should've* happened in the past, but is COMPLETELY ridiculous. Don't give this movie your time.

Avoid This Box Set! Great Songs horrible idea

I ordered this because I love most of Robbie Williams songs and this box set containes 19 chart hits across 19 individual CD singles. What a waste! I think the outer packaging is excellent but who wants to change a cd after every song??I recommend the Asian edition...much better.

Couldn't Swing Even If He Was Trapped In A Playground!

Very calculated music. Not jazz in the very least. Arista should be ashamed of releasing the same old thing over and over from this guy. For those of you who want to explore some TRUE jazz and not this stuff, try using your Amazon.com search engine and use the following key words: Brubeck, Miles, Weather Report, Getz, Ellington, McLaughlin, Blakey, Coltrane, Monk, Mingus, Montgomery. Music of this genre is NOT jazz and is barely acceptable as music.

Fun and Informative

Reading this book you start to feel like you can predict what Kurin will say when faced with different situations. This is not a bad thing. What I mean is, you learn how he looks at his job as an anthropologist/ethnographer/broker of culture. The discussions of how the visiting teams and the American hosts had to overcome assumptions and produce accurate, honest, sensitive cultural events for the Smithsonian is really fascinating. We love Kurin from his first chapter (Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief) through the freedom he allows the Festival of India performers to transform the festival, into his head-butting with Soviet beaurocrats, and right to his conclusion when he discusses the future-- globalism, tourism, indigenous products, culture policy and more. Kurin is doing amazing work and I am thankful he found time to write this book and let us know about it.

Poor

Michael Mann's glazed cinematograpy and MTV look worked in "Miami Vice", since it was a TV show. But it doesn't work in films (nor did it work for "The Insider" nor "Thief" nor "Manhunter" either). And, aside from the approach made on this movie, the plot itself is pretty patchy. DeNiro gives a good subtle performance, which makes me ask, What happened to Pacino? He is so over-the-top in his acting now! In "Godfather" I and II he gave such subtle, understated performances, they were among the best in film history. Now he is gruff and shouts all the time, like he has lost his hearing and thinks he needs to speak louder than he does. There is no nuance whatsoever to this, nor his other latest perfomances. Didn't he watch DeNiro act on this film, and think to tone his own acting down? Apparently not....This movie isn't terrible, but it ain't that great either.

My All-Time Favorite Book

Jane Eyre is a wonderful masterpiece! I absolutely love it. The characters are so well drawn that you become one with Jane and everything she feels and endures. Mr. Rochester has to be the greatest male figure in literature! Move over Heathcliff! I got goosebumps by the end of the book and wanted to immedietly flip it over and begin again.

You cant fix a broken house by adding a garage

There are sooo many things still broken with the ground game and now SOE tells us that those issues will be pushed back 6 to 10 months to make this new expansion. If the first part of the game is still bugged after over a year, what do you think the expansion will be like?If you think star wars should have people run around with swords and you dont mind the developers care nothing for the players and you dont mind being killed by the hundreds of Jedi on each server then maybe this game is for you.

Brecht's Alienation

The book is a good guide on tracing the evolution of the notion of alienation in theater. A different route from the naturalistic theater tradition, alienation aims at "extracting" emotions in theater and sticking with the message and aim of a play. Peter Thompson's work indirectly traces the idea of showing that acting is just plain "acting". He does this by reviewing the various experiences of staging Brecht's classic "Mother Courage and Her Children". For actors dreaming to just plainly "act" in theater (acting a character and not being a character), the good is a good guide. For those dreaming to be the mother in Mother Courage and The Mother, Shente in The Good Person of Setzuan, and St. Joan in St. Joan of the Stockyards--learn from this book.

I want Part 2 now!

I think that this is one of the best Marvel Books I have read. My favorite part was during the Broadway when the shark came out of nowhere and ruined the play. In the end when Peter and Mary Jane are looking through the photo album and they found out he has a sister. I think that his sister is Pity. Yet you never with these kind of books.

Good bracket, go with a longer one for 50 inch TV's

Was disappointed with this bracket when I first looked at it, but after hanging it I am completely pleased with it.I have hung several friends TV's and this bracket has been the nicest of all of them, despite being the least expensive. The thin design allows the TV to lie closer to the wall then most brackets. The dowels in the pivot mechanism allows effortless positioning, that retains its position without restraint.The only downfall of this bracket is that if you are using it on a 50 inch TV, go with the model with that supports 60 inch displays (ST660)so that you can mount the TV to three studs vs two.

If you really want to understand

If you really want to understand sailing and what makes the boat go through the water and why this is the book. Its not a light bedtime read. You do have to think about what is being said and explained but the explanations are complete enough to appeal to an engineer (as myself) yet presented with enough discussion that a non-engineer with an interest in the details can enjoy it as well. Although the equations and formulas are given, you don't need to know sophisticated math to understand. Its not a cookbook to sail faster but if you apply the material presented here, you cannot but sail faster, better and more efficiently.

No book is perfect, but this one came close

And Then There Were None was an amazing novel written by one of the greatest mystery authors, Agatha Christie. The author gets inside the heads of each and every character. It is suspenseful and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Take a ride through Agatha Cristie's And Then There Were None and be shocked at how the story all comes together in the end.

It was shipped fast and arrived much quicker then they stated it would. Very pleased with this purchase and who it was purchased from.

I do like crossing the t's on the top, and writing my first initial as the star A, but other than that, I generally find it a rather ugly script. Perhaps that's why it's not working for me, but I've not noticed any changes in myself or my life despite months of writing the t's and A's as she says.

A Classic

Ishiguro's The Remains of the Day gracefully reveals a noble life of an Engish butler, Mr. Stevens, who, for several years, has devoted his whole life for 'greatness' and 'dignity.' His dedication to Darlington Hall, unfortunately, deprives him of the only love he should have had. A beautifully written book that will truly touch your heart and leave you 'dignified.' One of the best books ever written in English of our time. At just over 200 pages, this novel exercises the restraint so eminent in its protagonist. The reliability of the narration is a constant query; Stevens' blind loyalty to his seniors is evident throughout, though it only serves to enhance the development of the plot. It is a novel that remains alarmingly relevant to this day.

Mic Trouble

I first bought (yes I said `first') this item when I got the set of Karaoke Revolution disk. Boy did we have fun, then, at first it was just a little noise coming from the speakers. Than intermittent shorting out of the sound. Then nothing. This after just a few days.Must admit Amazon was great in the way they handled the matter, they asked me to return the item, and sure enough shortly after a replacement came Boy did we have fun(of course we handled this new one with baby gloves), Did not help, within two weeks the same thing happened again, dead, kaput.I had to buy another one (this time one that I saw in a store). So I am now on the third one within weeks. Other wise works pretty good (that is, when and while it works)First two were very easy to go bad, hope I have better luck third time a round.Will keep you up dated on how long this one works.

This is one of the best critiques of right wing pundits around. It's well researched, and hilarious. The chapters on Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reilly alone are worth the price, but he does much, much more in this terrific book.Once you start, you won't be able to put it down. Read it in a place where they won't mind your laughing out loud, and if you are eating or drinking coffee, have plenty of napkins with you. It's that funny.

Extremely Hard to Put Together - Not intended for Children

I purchased this for my 5-year old son. There is no way on earth he could put this thing together. I spent over an hour and still could not get past 3-4 levels. The pieces fall apart constantly and if the blocks are not turned exactly the right way, the marbles fall all over the place. I would not recommend this for any child under the age of at least 10, unless the adult wants to make the whole thing themselves. I returned this and purchased a plastic inexpensive version which at least he can have fun with.

Great movie, fast delivery (pre-sale) and great savings!

So, my daughter has been waiting for this Blu-ray since we saw it in the theater. We pre-ordered it as soon as it was available for us to do so. We got it yesterday, 3/29, watched it...we all loved watching it at home, mainly because she loves to dance to all the music and was not able to do so in the theater. Both are great..theater and home for different reasons of course. The storyline is sweet, sad, scary and brave. Most kids will not experience what she did, but the magical connection between Rapunzel and Eugene was written very well. You will thoroughly enjoy this movie by Disney!On another note, I want to give Amazon.com some credit, they gave me a guaranteed low price if I pre-ordered and I just got my $8 refund. Thanks for keeping your promise!

Thought it was good until I went to law school

I bought this before I began law school and thought it was fabulous. Then I started following its advice. First of all, the LEEWS program it recommends is a huge waste of money. I went. I learned nothing. The guy spends all day telling you that he's going to teach you something fabulous, but he never actually does. I did very well first semester, but my grades were in NO part due to anything I learned in this course. So take the advice in the book lightly. It sounds good, but some of it is completely wrong. Also, I see the comments above that the books that are out of print aren't - the ones I tried to get that weren't out of print were all backordered 4-6 weeks. I'd really like to know what sort of affiliation the author of this book has with other programs.

Really fun for the price

I happen to have liked the limited location, and once you got used the forest navigation it truly wasn't hard to figure out where you were after you clicked around a bit. At the end I didn't need the map hardly at all. The only frustrations was towards the end, I needed a specific item and I couldn't find it for nothing. I eventually looked it up on the internet and turns out {spoiler- the gloves are in the sink-lol}*All in all, great comprehensive game - finished it in a day and a half.

It'll surprise you...

This is one of those albums that gets more catchy and good the more you listen to it. I think people should give it a few listens (say 5-10) before passing judgment. I think it rocks, and the CD-ROM part is entertaining. It surprised the heck out of me by having the learn to fly video on it. Nevertheless, Foo Fighters is BY FAR the best rock band out there right now. Down with Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock!

Just plain bad

Incredibly boring, repetitive and unimaginative sludgy thumping EBM. Every song is exactly (EXACTLY) the same, with the same rhythm and approximately the same lyrics. I would admire Funker Vogt's work as a single military concept album (the uniformity of music fits the theme), but they keep churning out the exact same stuff on every single disc.They are essentially a one-trick band. I actually quite like some of their remixes (they've done particularly good work with Velvet Acid Christ and Front Line Assembly), but their original work is just plain bad. If you're looking for angry and hard-pounding stuff that actually has some art to it, check out Suicide Commando's industrial / EBM or Combichrist's grinding electro.

Being a big fan of Natalie Merchant, I wanted to buy this album even though I have no interest in Folk music whatsoever and was slightly dubious whether I would like it. However, this is a stunning album, every song is a gem - particularly Owensboro -and it shows off Natalie's immeasurable talent. I had to buy this album from the US as it's not currently available in the UK and am amazed that more people haven't discovered what they're missing.

How about Special Ed?I watched "Science Fiction,Fantasy Reality" on the "Global Warming Edition/Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea".These idiots were trying to say that Global warming was not invented by Irwin Allen.They actually claimed that Jules Verne predicted the size of the Apollo spacecraft.He didn't,he just set up some chairs in his parlor,added a walkway and gave it the shape of a bullet,duh.[20 bucks says that Verne had a chair,if you multiply it's width by 5(passengers+ walkway on either side) and add the hull thickness of the USS Maine..you have his "prediction" of the Apollo spacecraft's size,minus the Saturn V booster,of course.Those science fiction writers aqre so stupid,The Nautilus was just given a magical way of propelling a surface warship sized sub,look at when it was written!!!]Now these idiots have to update the whole Irwin Allen catalog so nobody suspects what they are up to.Thanx,You know who

Save your money.

I bought this unit to replace my old one which I use to play my ipod in my car. Right out of the box, sound quality was garbage. Very echo-y and for some reason the sound was not evenly and appropriately distributed between the left and right channels. It also had a delay between he left and right channels. I went out and got the Monster 800 adapter from target for $18 and it sound way better. You get what you pay for.

powerful and loud

This was a replacement for thr ol' Dustbuster with a failing battery. Since I couldn' t find the old style, I went with the Dirt Devil. Very powerful for it's size but the db noise level can be piercing. easy clean out though not as good as the Dustbuster was, especially the filter...more surface on that one with the pleated cone.I recommend this for power and that' s about it. Of course, Amazon delivered right on time.

Smoothing, but not for people with longer torsos.

I bought this to wear under summer dresses without revealing panty lines, and to smooth out bumps. It does a pretty good job of smoothing things out, but I feel I must always yank up the top when not using the detachable bra straps. This item would work better for someone with a shorter torso. The legs do bind a bit, but overall, it's a comfortable garment. I haven't worn it in hot weather nor have I had to use the gusset.
