1	Simply Useful	Our child doesn't have to be reminded to use the spell check very often when he writes. However auto-correcct and some of the other optionns given don't always have the meaning he is going for. This speller & dictionary comes in handy once the writing assignment has been hand written or printed out for proof reading. The dictionary can be a little slow and some words are just not available unless you look them up the old fashioned way with an actual dictionary; but I still rate it at 4 stars. Learning new words takes time and I don't think an 8 to 10 second wait is going to hurt anybody.	positive
1	Absolutely The Best!!!	This is absolutely the best message ever. I have this book and reread it often. I also give it out as a gift all the time. A must have!	positive
1	The Party, starring Peter Sellers	I found "The Party" with Peter Sellers even funnier than "The Pink Panther". Peter, as a self-effacing, smiling, incredibly polite, and immaculately dressed Indian gentleman stumbles by mistake into an elegant party. What happens next is almost unbelievable!	positive
1	Wild	This is a sexy book. Not as good as the Winston Brothers. These are fun sexy books. Not serious erotica. You know in the beginning the girl will get the boy. But all the brothers are sex symbols, I cannot say the same for the women.	positive
1	Very Good!	I am really digging Maureen especially after this book! No lie, I bought this book for the romance, but when I realized how amazing the plot was the romance seemed to be an added bonus. At one point I was like "yess! They are making love! ....ok now let's get back to the drama"Really good book! Strongly recommended!	positive
0	nothing compelling	I am only giving this book two stars instead of one because the author does have some talent. However, that said, this book was so dull that I only got a little over half way through it before giving up, though I really tried to give it a chance. The story lagged and was painfully dull and none of the characters except for the children were interesing or likeable. Something about the whole book just felt old, from hokey Viki with "sausage curls" going to bed early each night to the use of the word "colored". At times the language also felt a bit pretentious. I believe people and places like those found in this book exist, I just don't find them interesting.	negative
0	Not a five star rating	I am very surprised at the 5 starspeople are giving this CD. Pleasedon't waste your money. Clay wasokay on AI2 but this new CD justshowcase his talents. Hopefullynext one will be better. I will haveto give this one two thumbs down!	negative
0	Spend your $$ on the book, not this film	I read the book by Michael Crichton and loved it. However, when my friends and I headed excitedly to the theater to see the movie, we were actually embarrassed to be sitting there when the lights came up. Horrible script, laughable editing...it does no justice to the book whatsoever.Posting this will hopefully prevent further victims.	negative
1	SUCH a good workout	Lindsay's post-natal boot camp helped me get back into shape after I had my daughter so I knew to look to her for a new DVD. I was looking for something to help me kick up my exercise routine a little bit and the Shed 5 fast DVD was exactly perfect! I've had the DVD for 2.5 weeks and have lost 3 pounds already and feel like I am using muscles I haven't used in a while! The workouts are very good--hard, but really fun and, most importrant for busy women, fast! The combination of weights and cardio-kickboxing make me feel like I have had a great workout. If you are looking to lose some extra pounds fast, to add an unexpected fun aspect to your workout routine, or see some quick definition in your muscles, this is the DVD for you--it does all of those things!	positive
0	Editorial Comments from the Publisher	"Parody of all fairy tales". Large cast, male or female / simple sets / 45 minutes. STORY: "In this merry adventure, we find such familiar characters as a wicked stepmamma, a giant, a fairy godmamma, a lovely young girl and a handsome boy. There are exciting difficulties to overcome and amusing antics to go through before the story is solved. Equally entertaining for children and adults. Plenty of action, and laughter in abundance."	negative
0	Read The Real Thing	Christian People,If you want to celebrate what Jesus celebrated then read a Jewish Hagaddah. "Messianic" hagaddah is like saying "Christian" Koran. It's just silly. As a Jew I appreciate your wanting to learn but...learn from the real thing not a made up phony version of a terrific story. Get yourself a real Hagaddah.One star only because I had to do something.	negative
0	An enigma wrapped in a puzzle.	"A Prayer For Owen Meany," despite being better than expected, is a tedious book to read. It is true the book is cynical and fun, but the fun quickly ends. The chapters are long and filled to the brink with random narrations and uninteresting scenes. Though Irving makes a habit of catching the reader's attention with ... innuendo before an abundance of religious allusions, the pattern does not repeat as often as is needed to renew a defeated interest in the book. If the book had an excellent theme or something to that effect, I would still recommend the book (albeit, after much hesitation). However, the novel's theme is difficult to find and many long, dull chapters can be read without any idea of what to analyze. Only in the end of the book is the theme noticible and even then, Irving could have emphasized such a cliche theme from the beginning.	negative
0	Jagged circles	This item creates circles that have an uneven, jagged edge. I'd say the cutting metal inside is made poorly and this creates a pretty heinous circle. A waste of money.	negative
0	Inexpensive, but you get what you pay for	I was swayed by the cheap price, but regretted it soon after. The player is bulky, unattractive, has cheap membrane buttons, worst of all, was skipping frequently or would not load some of my DVDs altogether. On top of it, the flimsy plastic notch intended to keep the battery attached broke off after a while. I've now bought a more expensive Panasonic LS50, which is smaller, better built, and so far has worked out great.	negative
1	Da Queen	Jeff came through again. He didn't disappoint me. Too funny. The man has talent when it comes to entertaining. Anyone who likes Jeff needs this for their collection.	positive
1	As Advertised	Leatherman Hybrid Gardening Multitool with Nylon Sheath #830555Fast service. Tool works great . Already used it on some pesty branches that are from a neighbor's tree. Kept running into them when I mowed. No more!!! ((:>))	positive
0	ruined my leather jacket.	bought this guy and use it on my leather jacket and the color faded creating a cut. the leather jacket i wore was brand new less than a week old.	negative
0	You Can Do Better	When you compare this book to the 2-sided PLANISPHERE,the book is almost useless.Go with a planisphere and or a software such as "Galileo Planetarium",(Complete Guide TO The Cosmos Ver.1.8).A planisphere will track by the month and the hour.A software will include the planets.New comers should be careful to order a planisphere within the latitude of their location.I myself would not have bought this book if I had fliped through it in a book store.I expected more.The knowledge is better than nothing,but you can do much better.	negative
0	Very poor casting	This was my first recording of DonG, from which I learned the opera. So I ought to like it, right? Nope.Ghiaurov is dead wrong for DonG, which is a role for a midrange baritone, not an aging power-bass. His acting is overblown and unfelt at the same time.Franz Crass is bland and boring as the Commendatore, and gets outsung by Ghiaurov.Christa Ludwig is a mezzo. What's she doing trying to sing Donna Elvira???Mirella Freni is too big for Zerlina's role. I don't know why she pretended to be a small singer so often. She's probably only in the cast because she was Ghiaurov's wife.Claire Watson is emotionally unconvincing as Donna Anna.Even Walter Berry is mundane as Leporello.The only good casting decision is Nicolai Gedda as Don Ottavio.	negative
1	Out of Control	I liked this book so much after I read it I used it to go club some baby seals. Jeesh people come on, all of you having a hissy fit over the Bobo thing is just what he writes about being wrong with our country in this book. Get a life and while your at it, get a sense of humor also.	positive
1	RIDE OR DIE	Body rides is another interesting book by laymon because it's alot different then what were used to reading from the man...A man saves a woman from certain death by a lunatic and as a reward she gives him a very special bracelet once given to her....This bracelet lets the wearer hop into bodys and view the world through another persons eyes and it's a good thing too because the man he saved her from is coming back for her and he's next....I enjoyed it, it's not his best but it's nowhere near his worst, and with all that i almost forgot about the sex and violence which is seldom missing from a laymon book. But then again thats why we love the man.	positive
0	Totally Crap.	Not only is the art below par, the one thing that gets me the most about this show is the blatant idiocy and prejudice of the girls.Throughout the series, the girls are always flaunting their "popularity", always putting down the kids who are different, as if they were, as human beings, any less human. The girls may have a go-getter attitude, but they have a very powerful attitude vs. authority problem. In one of the episodes, Alex applies for a job at the mall... but is constantly flaring about how she doesn't "have to listen to anyone!" This is the kind of attitude that fosters school bullying problems, and results in school shootings.Sorry, but I'm not interested in teaching my children arrogance, attitude, and to follow the false "popular-is-best" lie that society gets trapped in so much.	negative
1	Classic Poem "The Villiage Black Smith"	I had not read this poem in many years when I happened to think of it recently. I was pleased to find a copy so readily.	positive
1	MY SO-CALLED LIFE IS TEEN DRAMA	THIS SHOW WAS SO AWSOME !!! IT'S A SHAME IT WAS CANCELLED .I NEVER SAW I TEEN DRAMA THAT ACTUALLY SHOWED WHAT TEENS GO THROUGH . IT'S LIKE WATCHING YOUR OWN LIFE .THIS SHOW IS THE MOST REALISTIC SERIES I'VE EVER SEEN . THE WAY I CAN RELATE TO IT IS JUST INCREDIBLE . THE CRITICS WEREN'T LYING WHEN THEY SAID '' THIS IS THE FIRST SHOW TO GET TEENS RIGHT.''	positive
1	5th Episode, More About Bill - Recommended	This is the fifth episode in the HBO adaptation of the popular Sookie Stackhouse vampire novels (the first episode is Strange Love, see my review there for the content description).We get to see more of Bill's past as he gives a talk about his Civil War (or "War for Southern Independence" as the characters call it) experiences as he was a Confederate soldier. Since he was a "local", he also knows about the history of several ancestors of current town residences. The use of flashbacks was well done and helped give more insight into Bill's past.This series is not for everyone and definitely not for younger viewers!CFH	positive
0	Broke after a few CDs	I bought this shredder to replace an older Aurora model and to be able the shred some old CDs.While it worked very nicely with paper, CD's were a different story: After only a few CD's the machine was history. One CD got stuck with a loud noise, which was the last sound of the motor. Even after disassembling (and voiding the guarantee) the machine and extracting the remainders of the half-shredded CD, it never started working again...I am very disappointed ;-(	negative
0	cabin	This book is about a girl that moved west. Ann does not go toschool the same way as in Gettysburg. Ann wants to go back toGettysburg. I like the little bit of details. I don't like the book because there is not a lot of action. I would recommend this book to people that don't like action.	negative
1	Mood music for cyborgs	Piano dukes it out with drum machines live on stage, without a net. Kind of cool, kind of crotchety, kind of creepy, elegant, absurd. Track 3 is my favorite.	positive
0	This is a Black Market Dealer	This person is an unauthorized Global Health Trax dealer, which is why the price is at black market price (the set price for ThreeLac at Global Health Trax is $48.50). The company has been trying to find out who is selling her GHT products and threatened legal action. Unauthorized dealers buy from unscrupulous GHT dealers in bulk discount, so you don't know how old, fresh, or alive the product is (ThreeLac contains live bacteria that will die under cerntain conditions, such as extreme heat or prolonged cold temperatures). In addition, you will not receive any instructions for how to take the product or any support or guidance from this dealer, nor does she provide the unconditional 60 day money back guarantee that an authorized GHT dealer offers. Be careful who you order from!	negative
0	robuster	Over the last year I've gone thu most of the really good novels of this genre.A lot of my fantasy friends sold me on this book.Disappointing.The book was wrote for teenagers,or kids just about to be teens.It was a rehash of The Wheel Of Time.A bad one at that.Save your money, move on to something with more realistic relationships.The flow of the story was awful,hard to keep up with and then for pages nothing would happen.	negative
0	Matrix Revolutions	A major let down, gloomy from start to finish. Mentioning no names but killing off two of the main charachters did not help.The likes of Larry Fishburne and Lambert Wilson are woefully under-used, two great charchters that made Reloaded great!However the final showdown between Smith & Neo stands out, a great set piece that reminds me of Superman 2!Jada pincket Smith and Marvin Gay's daughter are very sexy.	negative
0	not worth it	this has to be the worst cookie press ever. I used it several times hoping i just needed to get use to it. Not the case at all. If dough is the slightest bit too thick it will not work at all, just grinds and nothing will come out. Too soft and it sticks inside the mechanism. batteries... completely differnet story. they do not last through even one batch of cookies. I wish I had never wasted my money. My old Maunal Betty Crocker cookie press someone gave me for a wedding present 25 years ago is still going strong and has just now started to slip Of course I made 6 batches of cookie and 4 batches of chees straws. So I am on he hunt for a new one and I have learned my lession that higher price and a name does not mean better quality.	negative
1	A New Meaning of Organized Crime......	This book shows the extent to which our 'Public Servants' go to cover their criminal enterprises. These cranks that attempt to dis-credit those who expose criminal activity by government employees as conspiracy freaks are they themselves complicite in these Federal crimes. Conspiracy or not, these people are a deeply infiltrated cancer in the US Government.	positive
0	a total waste	Savini is wasted. The Living Dead concept is wasted. It's an incoherent mess. The less said about it the better.	negative
1	Book Review	This is a book that a colleague of mine purchased. I immediately purchased a copy after reading the simple and straight forward way in which problem solving is handled. I am using the text to teach my Grade 10 students problem solving.	positive
1	Good for sensitive skin.	These wipes have quite a scent to them, but they work well. My son is extremely fair and breaks out when he gets ketchup on his face. These are very effective and prevent breakouts. Most Mustela products have worked wonders for us since my son was born. We still use them and he's three.	positive
1	Really Good!	Well I can't give the perfectly written review. But I can so that this was a very good book.It was written for husbands but it doesn't mean only husband can read it. I think it is great for anyone 16+ because it is definitely an adult book.This book actually gave me some help as being a brother. I suggest that people read this book. Even if they have a strong marrage or family, for that matter.	positive
1	Excellent book	I saw several references to this book when searching about what books were worthwhile to purchase on this topic and am very pleased that I bought it. This is one of three books that I would recommend be in your personal collection if this is a topic that is of interest to you. I am actually so pleased with this book I am recommending it to two of my friends.	positive
0	Knob fell off.	Poor workmanship. While I was installing it, the control knob fell off. The pressure regulation seemed to be accurate, and the regulator was otherwise satisfactory.	negative
1	Excitement, Suspense and Biblical Truth all in one!	These books were very enjoyable and kept me wanting to read more. Bill Myers has a wonderful talent with writing non-fiction, but including Biblical Truth throughout. By the end of this trilogy I wanted to study my Bible more and learn what the character, Brandon Martus, had learned. This book would be a wonderful gift for anyone who enjoys non-fiction/science-fiction type books. I believe high-school aged readers through any aged adult readers would also enjoy this trilogy.	positive
1	Great musical storyteller	The music is wonderful -- some songs make you laugh, others make you cry. Unfortunately, the last piece on disc one was very jumpy, so we couldn't listen to it.	positive
1	Good bucket	you can carry alot of tools and get quick access to all of them without opening a bunch of drawers in a toolbox. Better than the round bucket.	positive
1	Entertaining	This is a great series and I have throughly enjoyed every season. The actors are really good and love thier outfits. Will continue to watch. No problem with streaming either.	positive
1	A big slice of cheesecake	Elizabeth Berkley stars as a hooker who wants to be a Las Vegas showgirl...only to find out it's not as glamourous as she anticipated. All I can say is, they certainly saved money on the wardrobe....Elizabeth Berkley spends over 50% of the movie naked.	positive
1	Excellent and inspiring.	I recommend this wonderful book for the inspiration it gives. The poetry is accessible and charming. The reproductions of woodcuts are beautiful. Anyone who would like to try writing Haikus as a meditation, or for fun will find that it starts to happen almost automatically.	positive
1	The Blind Assissin	This book was part of our book club and is even better when read in a group. It is thought provoking on many levels. We all enjoyed it and would highly recommend it to others.	positive
1	Love these	I bought these to wear while I run on the treadmill at the gym. They stay in my ears while I run, and block out the noise of the people around me. They're serving their purpose beautifully!	positive
0	Not so GREAT!!	I like the idea of these coupons, and I purchased them based on the reviews of the others. However,the majority of the coupons, we won't even use. For example, An "All you need is love" Coupon, which entitles you to as many Beatles CDs as it takes to complete your collection of their music; A "Dancing Lesson" at a professional studio; The "Great Ski Weekend"; The "Tea for Two" Coupon...Good for an afternoon of English style tea..etc...	negative
0	QuickenBasic 2006	After i ordered the product from Quicken I found a friend who already had it and after looking at his found it to be way to complex for my needs. 1 star is incorrect as didn't open the psckage.	negative
0	Night of the Living Dead (Millennium Edition)	This is by far the best copy on dvd of this movie. I was tempted in the past to buy this version but hesitated until I read other reviews on your website and decided to purchase this version after reading the high reviews. Being a big George Romero fan, I own other versions of this movie on dvd and vhs and always strive to get the best quality films I can. The Millennium Edition of this movie is the best money can buy.	negative
0	WARNING---Good idea, but poorly executed by mfg.	Was excited to find out that I could still power my vintage Nikon Ftn camera, but discovered these Wein batteries barely caused the voltage tester to budge. Followed the instructions about removing the tab and waiting..... how does 24 hrs. sound? Next time I'll look at buyer's reviews before purchasing, as several commented about receiving DEAD BATTERIES from this vendor. Either they have had these on their shelves for years or there's a basic design defect. Either way.... be warned!	negative
1	Cord could be longer	The cord that you plug into the wall could be a bit longer but the quality and utility is excellent.	positive
1	Lusions	The "customer" who reviewed Lusions as "Arrogance Exemplified" obviously did not read the book. There is no poem in it to hint at autobiography or arrogance. Rather, the book presents a much welcomed world view of the cultural development of violence, from pre-history to our contemporary period, broad enough for any reader to connect to it personally. All of Ragan's works that I have read are universal in their dimensions. I strongly recommend that this reviewer let go of what sounds like a personal grudge toward quality literature. I give Lusions my highest recommendation.	positive
1	better than most	I went into movie with low expectations and was surprised! better than I thought and good enough to buy!I liked how the story explained the begginings of a serial killer, not just telling you he is one!	positive
0	Boring	I'm sorry, but this was the most boring book I've ever read. It's so repetitive, the author writes about the same thing over and over and over, again and again and again. It was a total waste of time reading this book, I only read half of it and that was enough.	negative
0	Distasteful Story	With due credit to James Patterson, this is only the second of his books that I have read with the first being The Jester. Everyone I know who reads James Patterson, raves about his writing so I've got to give this guy another chance as See How They Run is one of the worst books I've read. Actually, only a third of the way through, I was so bored and disgusted with the plot and charactors that I skimmed to the end just to see if the so-called incredible ending was as I had figured out early on. The charactors were unbelievable, the plot development uneven and the actual story was, in my opinion, in very bad taste.	negative
0	Horrendous!!!	I thought this book was horrendous. Fly Girl was a wonderful book, but this one was absolutely ridiculous. I wish I could get my money back. Now it seems like your just writing for the money. What were you thinking? Obviously, you weren't thinking about your work. Maybe you should take a vacation, I think you have a bad case of writers block.	negative
0	THE TEXT IS ADULTERATED!	You should be aware that this text of Yogananda's 1946 classic has been substantially altered by Self Realization Fellowship after the author's death. For the real McCoy, look for the edition with the blue cover issued by Crystal Clarity Press.	negative
0	Not the real stuff...	Back when, Connolly hide food was "the" leather conditioner. It was recommended by Jaguar, Rolls Royce, Bentley etc. It used to be made of cattle by-products, so really did contain the stuff that makes leather soft, and avoids drying out - albeit at an animally-type smell! I've brought back many a rough looking leather car interior with this hide food.But no more. The latest jar I purchased had all those ingredients gone. Now it's just the boring lanolin-based hide food - which is really not that wonderful.I'd certainly say this was not worth it's premium price.	negative
0	Great product for couch potatoes!	Headset had very good sound quality. Just one sad thing, it will not work while you are using a treadmill. My wife was very disappointed! It would save the retailer some money on returns if they pointed that out in the specs info. Since it is clearly written in the manual on the last page, last sentence of the book that it will not funtion while using a treadmill.	negative
0	Terrible graphics, OK recipes	As soon as I opened this book, I didn't want to make any of the recipes, simply because the pictures were so awful. The layout is amatuerish and the photos are simply unappetizing. Presentation counts almost as much as flovor- if this is what my meals are going to look like, then I'll pass.	negative
0	a read for armchair non sailors	wish i hadnt bought the book it will end up being donated somewhere. The valuable information is that for beginners they should start with a small boat, preferably a dinghy and learn the craft. The author bought his boat fully equipped for crusing from frank dye whose books are well worth buying.Although the writing style is readable, I am convinced that the author really doesnt like sailing or the sea. There is a mechanical approach to getting from a to b and if it means breaking out the credit card or asking for a tow so be it. The final nail in the coffin is the authors cutting short the trip because?	negative
0	Save your money and time.	There is only about 1/3 of a page's worth of useful information in this book. And it's all the same stuff you can find in any good book about parrot care (start young, use structure, be animated, use contextual references, be patient). A book by Blanchard, Athan, or Doane will tell you these things, but they will also give you much more complete information on training and care. This book is, instead, filled with many big, glossy photographs. They are beautiful, but quite useless. Perhaps this is a good child's picture book.	negative
0	Disappointing	Perhaps, if you have a Ph.D. in English, belong to the Modern Languages Association, and teach in a university where postmodernism is requisite, this is the book for you. I gave up half way through, finding these essays for the most part too rambling and self-referential - too "academic." If you are not a professional academic but are curious about why and how poetry moves one, spend your money on Mary Oliver's A Handbook of Poetry - half the price, half the length, and twenty times the useful information.	negative
0	an ok book, but not exceptional	If you've never rebuilt a carter carb, this book may be Ok. If your looking for jet sizes used on OEM applications, or tricks to make your thermoquad, etc run even better...this book has nothing to offer. No venturi size comparison, no metering rod or jet sizing, no suggestions for compensating for altitude, etc. The little sheet of paper that comes with most carb kits will give you the same set up info as this book, and its "free" with the carb kit.	negative
1	Awesome book	it is a great book. I own it and I've read it about 3 times. It can be a bite scary for some younger kids. But it the scary with zombies walking aroiund eating people. It's a really clean book and I would highly recomend it.	positive
1	Huge and Very nice	This map is pretty big. But the quality of the paper is not as standard as we usually see in the wall maps.Pretty good for my big wall.	positive
0	an insult to marilyn manson	TRIBUTE ALBUMS IN MOST CASES ARE CHEAP RIP OFFS OF THE ARTIST HARD WORK...LISTENING TO THE SAMPLES ON HERE LEAVES ME WONDERING, "DID THEY RELEASE THIS WITH A STRSIGHT FACE?" THIS IS AWFUL. JUST SOME COMPANY TRYING TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK BY EXPLIOTING MANSON WORK. THIS SHOULD BE ILLEGAL. I'M SURE THE MANSON DEOSN'T GET PAID FOR THIS TO BE RELEASED	negative
1	Another enjoyable Lance Lopez release	Lance Lopez is a well kept secret, he's an awesome guitar player. I love his mix of different mixes. One song sounds a little like Stevie Ray, the next like ZZ Top.	positive
1	"The Shadow Univeristy" - The Truth	The Shadow University takes the political correctness horror of the early 90's and puts it into prospective. It was a nightmare time for professors, even those with tenure. No one cared. The female student was always right. No one, student or teacher, was safe from attack. Universities did not follow their own rules. Many good professors lost jobs and left teaching. What a sad day for higher education. This book tells the story and it is sad.	positive
1	Good, but Still Has a Few Kinks to Work Out	Line of Control is wonderful military novel with many twists and turns that keep the reader guessing what will happen next. Rovin illustrated wonderfully the conflict that would arise between two enemies who were forced to work together for the greater good.However, I do feel that the author does digress from the story a little too often. He sites previous books in the series more then is necessary for the storyline and over-explains military terms.But other then that I would suggest this novel to anyone who enjoys military or intellgence novels.	positive
1	So it isn't politically correct...Jeez!	No Zulu war chants? This is a CD of music John Barry composed for the film Zulu. I imagine that the composer of the war chantswas someone very much entirely different. The chants are magnificent, don't get me wrong (didn't Ridley Scott transpose them to Gladiator, god knows how), but they don't belong here.Another case of taking political correctness to an absurd extreme. "Color Sergeant Bourne, what's that shooting?!" "A rifle, Hughes." Zulu is only a great movie, made better by crap like Gladiator and Troy, and Barry's score is one of his three or four best.	positive
0	Buy this game for your PC	I've spent hours playing Quake 3 on my PC. These hours add up to days, months even. I play online. I play in tournaments online. I can't get enough. The PS2 version is a mere shadow of the PC version. Graphics are muddy (even with an S-Video connection), control is awful. I could write paragraphs expounding on the awfulness of the control. This game is designed for use with a keyboard and mouse. Some first person shooters can pull off the use of a controller (Southpark for N64 works wonderfully). If you've never played Quake 3 and you like first person shooters, buy it for PC (it almosts warrants buying the PC). Anyone who likes this game even a little for PC should not consider renting this game - in fact, avoid even looking in its general direction,I admit to playing only multiplayer (with two others). I did not try the story mode. I did not want to.Run away from this version. Better yet, destroy it as soon as you see it.	negative
1	Made extremely well	Love this toy.. it is made very well and great care was done in the detail of the product. cuddly	positive
0	Amatuerish writing by an egomaniac with little to say.	I was initially shocked at the large point font. Later I realized that this was necessitated by the author's lack of writing or observational skills.The story starts strongly, but then wimpers out. He concentrates on the soap opera aspects of the climbing team while ignoring the human versus mountain drama.An annoying, frustrating little book after reading "Into Thin Air", "The Perfect Storm" and "Endurance".Look at the cover, then don't bother further with this one.	negative
1	Improvement	This stand is well made, sturdy and easy to assemble.It is predrilled for mounting DeWalt planers.It comes with a package of 2 1/2" bolts for mounting the planer. When mounting my DeWalt 735, I found that 3" bolts were required.It would seem that DeWalt would know the proper size bolts for mounting their planer and include them in the hardware.	positive
0	Her Other Books Are Better	Although Dara Joy is at the top of my list for favorite authors, her work was a real disappointment in this book. There were too many characters and subplots which---to me at least--- distracted from the main plot and focus of the hero and heroine. It was a cute idea, and I got a real belly-laugh over the one bedroom scene where the hero gets a black eye, but with Dara's incredible imagination I know she could have done better. Maybe it was the deadline...who knows?	negative
1	Trek Mi Q'an Series	I am going to review the whole Trek Mi Q'an series to book 7 in this one review. I looked at Jaid Black's books because I read some great reviews on her. These seven books as she calls them have a great story line. A couple of them I am not even sure they are required for the story. We will find out when she completes the series. She may have created them just to get more money. Some of the books are a rip off for the are not very long. One is about 35 pages of story per my kindle fire, 29 pages per IPAD. It was listed as 154 pages on amazon. After I complete this series I will not buy any more of her books, as not sure if I will get the number of pages I think I am getting. I see others complained in their reviews of those about the price and how long they were.

0	Paranoid	Given the tone, this book is many things, but well researched is not one of them. Virulently anti-Gore, the authors are naturally predisposed to dig up information that allegedly cemments their own positions.Along with the familiar drivel about the environment and the internet, the authors "raise questions about Gore's character" Since sensationalism is all the authors seem to come up with, it is only fair to expose the author's lack of. Al Gore is hardly the extreme leftwing Democrat his detractors have painted him to be.Of course, this persistent stereotyping and misinformation does not establish good journalism, and the consumer is left with something that could be relegated to the trash bin. Individuals looking for a balanced work ought to spend their money else where.	negative
1	Excellent Voice, Music, lyrics....	I bought this CD about a year and a half ago while I was still in Spain. It's a shame that we can't turn on a latin station, or any station for that matter, and listen to songs like theirs on the radio. The lead singer's voice is hypnotizing, very beautiful. Their lyrics are fantastic and I definitely recommend people buy their CD.	positive
1	A game that shouldn't have been created	Mega Man has been a great game series, but Battle Chip Challenge is the worst game I've evered played. IN this game you collect battle chips and arrange them on a grid. You then enter a battle and use them on the enemy navi. Unfourtunly the chips are selected at random and since everything is done automaticly all you do is press L or R to use a chip asigned to that button, or the A button to keep things going. And don't think for a second that the process of obtaining battle chips can be fun like Nintendo Power Magazine said it would be, IT"S NOT! Are you looking for a club? Because if you were to get Mega Man BCC that's all you'll get, an expensive club. On the Scale of 1-5 this game is a -5.	positive
1	Addictive!	Refreshing to see a new show like this. When it was first released, I thought how can they stretch a theme about two plastic surgeons into a successful series? Well they have, and each show is both engaging and exciting.Season 1 is worth seeing, but Season 2 is even better! Many people missed Season 1 on TV, so obtaining this DVD box gives you the chance to see how it all started.In Australia, we are viewing the final episodes of Season 2. It is so popular here that the Tv Network is broadcasting it twice a week. Each episode of this latest season is enthralling and hard to switch off. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a series so much.I was not a fan of Julian McMahon before this show mainly because I remembered the shows he was in here in Australia before moving to LA. However, he is outstanding in Nip/Tuck. He has certainly perfected his art since the old days.Well done!	positive

1	The first movie to actually Shock me!	I first saw this movie just 2 years ago. I had already seen Pulp fiction, Dead man, Straw dogs, Reservoir dogs and A Clockwork Orange. The hype about there violence was always over the top and I was never shocked, but Ricochet I had heard no hype for, and I was Plenty Shocked, which was a very new sensation. The film is great, but I don't think its the sort you'd want to watch over and over. Denzel is great, as usual.	positive
0	Piece of junk	This pump only lasted about a month... I only pump about once a day, and although it worked great for a while, it didn't last. The motor suddenly began sputtering and eventually the suction gave out... Nothing I did could fix the problem. Evenflo does not give a whole lot of troubleshooting suggestions. The problem could of been milk in the motor, but the design is so that this is difficult to avoid. I would advise anyone to just spend the extra money in a better pump with better customer support. This one went in the trash.	negative
0	Straight ripoff!! I'd rate this a -10 !!!	I can only agree with the other negative reviews. This "game" is a complete waste of time and money.

I've expressed my displeasure but Encore has not gotten back with me. Likewise (as Lafayette Gamer), Encore will not have a repeat customer here.	negative
1	Great show	This CD is truly amazing...If anyone here has actually seen the show, it is truly an amazing and groundbreaking piece.My favorite track is "The Schmuel Song"...This album is a must for any serious muscical theater fan.

1	See this movie just for Ian McKellen's performance!	"Gods and Monsters" is a superb movie about the last days of gay film director James Whale -- who directed "Frankenstein" and "Bride of Frankenstein".

0	Guesses	all religion is based on guesses, like science. this book is what he "thinks" heaven is, or he is just scamming this christian country for some money (most likey the latter). who knows if there is a god, we just assume there is because its been beaten in to american all the way from the indians. christian europeans came here, told the indians to belive in god or we will kill you. so this country became a forced christian country.noone really knows if there is after life. its all guesses. in my opinion, religion came from a need to explain something. if we couldnt explain something, then god did it. where do we come from? god did it. where do tress come from? god made them. where did the universe come from? god made it.makes perfect sense, this guy is just guessing his way to a fortune. wish i would have thought of this book.	negative

0	not exactly what I had hoped for	I was kind of excited to find a book written by archeologists. I love historical fiction, and I am interested in the early Amerinds. Actually, there is a lot of good attention to detail in this book. Names of plants, ways of life: it all seemed very real. I found myself perusing an atlas: where exactly are these "sideways mountains"?However, there were some aspects of this book that really turned me off. Okay, I get it that Amerinds engaged in sexual relations. But it seemed a bit overdone. You know, the I-can't-give-this-to-my-teen feeling.What was worse was all the mysticism and spiritual stuff. Again, I understand why it was included. But it was incredibly overdone, consuming many pages. I finally had to stop reading. The theology of these people (as imagined) was so illogical as to be painful, and it threw a wrench into what was otherwise good writing.Think of "Dune" only set in Montana. Actually the Dune universe made more sense.	negative
1	Best book on the treatment and care of the bowed tendon	Very few have been able to write about the injury, treatment and care so concisely and understandabley to all horse owners. the author never talks down to the reader, instead, communicates on the level of all readers. The first part of the book is devoted to the injury and how it happens and its effects on the horse. The second part of the book is about the treatment and successive training afterward. This is an indispensible book for all horse owners and lovers.	positive
1	Helpful self-help book.	This book is very easy reading and to understand. It is a self-help type of book, so doing the exercises and following the guideline will help to cure adrenal fatigue. Very worthwhile.	positive
0	Not same class as "Somewhere In Time"	I stumbled upon this as I searched for a copy of "Somewhere in Time". The outstanding 5-star reviews led me to order it, even though it was comparatively expensive. What a sucker. Made for TV, this movie just doesn't ever allow the suspension of disbelief. The dialogue is weak, the acting forced and unconvincing and the technical aspects just silly (like the soap-opera recovery from prolonged traumatic coma). No music. No magic. Rent if you must (if you can find it) but save your money.	negative

Simply Useful

Our child doesn't have to be reminded to use the spell check very often when he writes. However auto-correcct and some of the other optionns given don't always have the meaning he is going for. This speller & dictionary comes in handy once the writing assignment has been hand written or printed out for proof reading. The dictionary can be a little slow and some words are just not available unless you look them up the old fashioned way with an actual dictionary; but I still rate it at 4 stars. Learning new words takes time and I don't think an 8 to 10 second wait is going to hurt anybody.

nothing compelling

I am only giving this book two stars instead of one because the author does have some talent. However, that said, this book was so dull that I only got a little over half way through it before giving up, though I really tried to give it a chance. The story lagged and was painfully dull and none of the characters except for the children were interesing or likeable. Something about the whole book just felt old, from hokey Viki with "sausage curls" going to bed early each night to the use of the word "colored". At times the language also felt a bit pretentious. I believe people and places like those found in this book exist, I just don't find them interesting.

Spend your $$ on the book, not this film

I read the book by Michael Crichton and loved it. However, when my friends and I headed excitedly to the theater to see the movie, we were actually embarrassed to be sitting there when the lights came up. Horrible script, laughable editing...it does no justice to the book whatsoever.Posting this will hopefully prevent further victims.

SUCH a good workout

Lindsay's post-natal boot camp helped me get back into shape after I had my daughter so I knew to look to her for a new DVD. I was looking for something to help me kick up my exercise routine a little bit and the Shed 5 fast DVD was exactly perfect! I've had the DVD for 2.5 weeks and have lost 3 pounds already and feel like I am using muscles I haven't used in a while! The workouts are very good--hard, but really fun and, most importrant for busy women, fast! The combination of weights and cardio-kickboxing make me feel like I have had a great workout. If you are looking to lose some extra pounds fast, to add an unexpected fun aspect to your workout routine, or see some quick definition in your muscles, this is the DVD for you--it does all of those things!

Editorial Comments from the Publisher

"Parody of all fairy tales". Large cast, male or female / simple sets / 45 minutes. STORY: "In this merry adventure, we find such familiar characters as a wicked stepmamma, a giant, a fairy godmamma, a lovely young girl and a handsome boy. There are exciting difficulties to overcome and amusing antics to go through before the story is solved. Equally entertaining for children and adults. Plenty of action, and laughter in abundance."

An enigma wrapped in a puzzle.

"A Prayer For Owen Meany," despite being better than expected, is a tedious book to read. It is true the book is cynical and fun, but the fun quickly ends. The chapters are long and filled to the brink with random narrations and uninteresting scenes. Though Irving makes a habit of catching the reader's attention with ... innuendo before an abundance of religious allusions, the pattern does not repeat as often as is needed to renew a defeated interest in the book. If the book had an excellent theme or something to that effect, I would still recommend the book (albeit, after much hesitation). However, the novel's theme is difficult to find and many long, dull chapters can be read without any idea of what to analyze. Only in the end of the book is the theme noticible and even then, Irving could have emphasized such a cliche theme from the beginning.

Inexpensive, but you get what you pay for

I was swayed by the cheap price, but regretted it soon after. The player is bulky, unattractive, has cheap membrane buttons, worst of all, was skipping frequently or would not load some of my DVDs altogether. On top of it, the flimsy plastic notch intended to keep the battery attached broke off after a while. I've now bought a more expensive Panasonic LS50, which is smaller, better built, and so far has worked out great.

Very poor casting

This was my first recording of DonG, from which I learned the opera. So I ought to like it, right? Nope.Ghiaurov is dead wrong for DonG, which is a role for a midrange baritone, not an aging power-bass. His acting is overblown and unfelt at the same time.Franz Crass is bland and boring as the Commendatore, and gets outsung by Ghiaurov.Christa Ludwig is a mezzo. What's she doing trying to sing Donna Elvira???Mirella Freni is too big for Zerlina's role. I don't know why she pretended to be a small singer so often. She's probably only in the cast because she was Ghiaurov's wife.Claire Watson is emotionally unconvincing as Donna Anna.Even Walter Berry is mundane as Leporello.The only good casting decision is Nicolai Gedda as Don Ottavio.

But then again thats why we love the man.

Totally Crap.

Not only is the art below par, the one thing that gets me the most about this show is the blatant idiocy and prejudice of the girls.Throughout the series, the girls are always flaunting their "popularity", always putting down the kids who are different, as if they were, as human beings, any less human. The girls may have a go-getter attitude, but they have a very powerful attitude vs. authority problem. In one of the episodes, Alex applies for a job at the mall... but is constantly flaring about how she doesn't "have to listen to anyone!" This is the kind of attitude that fosters school bullying problems, and results in school shootings.Sorry, but I'm not interested in teaching my children arrogance, attitude, and to follow the false "popular-is-best" lie that society gets trapped in so much.

5th Episode, More About Bill - Recommended

This is the fifth episode in the HBO adaptation of the popular Sookie Stackhouse vampire novels (the first episode is Strange Love, see my review there for the content description).We get to see more of Bill's past as he gives a talk about his Civil War (or "War for Southern Independence" as the characters call it) experiences as he was a Confederate soldier. Since he was a "local", he also knows about the history of several ancestors of current town residences. The use of flashbacks was well done and helped give more insight into Bill's past.This series is not for everyone and definitely not for younger viewers!CFH

Even after disassembling (and voiding the guarantee) the machine and extracting the remainders of the half-shredded CD, it never started working again...I am very disappointed ;-(

This is a Black Market Dealer

This person is an unauthorized Global Health Trax dealer, which is why the price is at black market price (the set price for ThreeLac at Global Health Trax is $48.50). The company has been trying to find out who is selling her GHT products and threatened legal action. Unauthorized dealers buy from unscrupulous GHT dealers in bulk discount, so you don't know how old, fresh, or alive the product is (ThreeLac contains live bacteria that will die under cerntain conditions, such as extreme heat or prolonged cold temperatures). In addition, you will not receive any instructions for how to take the product or any support or guidance from this dealer, nor does she provide the unconditional 60 day money back guarantee that an authorized GHT dealer offers. Be careful who you order from!

Lusions

The "customer" who reviewed Lusions as "Arrogance Exemplified" obviously did not read the book. There is no poem in it to hint at autobiography or arrogance. Rather, the book presents a much welcomed world view of the cultural development of violence, from pre-history to our contemporary period, broad enough for any reader to connect to it personally. All of Ragan's works that I have read are universal in their dimensions. I strongly recommend that this reviewer let go of what sounds like a personal grudge toward quality literature. I give Lusions my highest recommendation.

Everyone I know who reads James Patterson, raves about his writing so I've got to give this guy another chance as See How They Run is one of the worst books I've read. Actually, only a third of the way through, I was so bored and disgusted with the plot and charactors that I skimmed to the end just to see if the so-called incredible ending was as I had figured out early on. The charactors were unbelievable, the plot development uneven and the actual story was, in my opinion, in very bad taste.

Horrendous!!!

I thought this book was horrendous. Fly Girl was a wonderful book, but this one was absolutely ridiculous. I wish I could get my money back. Now it seems like your just writing for the money. What were you thinking? Obviously, you weren't thinking about your work. Maybe you should take a vacation, I think you have a bad case of writers block.

THE TEXT IS ADULTERATED!

You should be aware that this text of Yogananda's 1946 classic has been substantially altered by Self Realization Fellowship after the author's death. For the real McCoy, look for the edition with the blue cover issued by Crystal Clarity Press.

Not the real stuff...

Back when, Connolly hide food was "the" leather conditioner. It was recommended by Jaguar, Rolls Royce, Bentley etc. It used to be made of cattle by-products, so really did contain the stuff that makes leather soft, and avoids drying out - albeit at an animally-type smell! I've brought back many a rough looking leather car interior with this hide food.But no more. The latest jar I purchased had all those ingredients gone. Now it's just the boring lanolin-based hide food - which is really not that wonderful.I'd certainly say this was not worth it's premium price.

Great product for couch potatoes!

Headset had very good sound quality. Just one sad thing, it will not work while you are using a treadmill. My wife was very disappointed! It would save the retailer some money on returns if they pointed that out in the specs info. Since it is clearly written in the manual on the last page, last sentence of the book that it will not funtion while using a treadmill.

Terrible graphics, OK recipes

As soon as I opened this book, I didn't want to make any of the recipes, simply because the pictures were so awful. The layout is amatuerish and the photos are simply unappetizing. Presentation counts almost as much as flovor- if this is what my meals are going to look like, then I'll pass.

a read for armchair non sailors

wish i hadnt bought the book it will end up being donated somewhere. The valuable information is that for beginners they should start with a small boat, preferably a dinghy and learn the craft. The author bought his boat fully equipped for crusing from frank dye whose books are well worth buying.Although the writing style is readable, I am convinced that the author really doesnt like sailing or the sea. There is a mechanical approach to getting from a to b and if it means breaking out the credit card or asking for a tow so be it. The final nail in the coffin is the authors cutting short the trip because?

Save your money and time.

There is only about 1/3 of a page's worth of useful information in this book. And it's all the same stuff you can find in any good book about parrot care (start young, use structure, be animated, use contextual references, be patient). A book by Blanchard, Athan, or Doane will tell you these things, but they will also give you much more complete information on training and care. This book is, instead, filled with many big, glossy photographs. They are beautiful, but quite useless. Perhaps this is a good child's picture book.

Disappointing

Perhaps, if you have a Ph.D. in English, belong to the Modern Languages Association, and teach in a university where postmodernism is requisite, this is the book for you. I gave up half way through, finding these essays for the most part too rambling and self-referential - too "academic." If you are not a professional academic but are curious about why and how poetry moves one, spend your money on Mary Oliver's A Handbook of Poetry - half the price, half the length, and twenty times the useful information.

an ok book, but not exceptional

If you've never rebuilt a carter carb, this book may be Ok. If your looking for jet sizes used on OEM applications, or tricks to make your thermoquad, etc run even better...this book has nothing to offer. No venturi size comparison, no metering rod or jet sizing, no suggestions for compensating for altitude, etc. The little sheet of paper that comes with most carb kits will give you the same set up info as this book, and its "free" with the carb kit.

"The Shadow Univeristy" - The Truth

The Shadow University takes the political correctness horror of the early 90's and puts it into prospective. It was a nightmare time for professors, even those with tenure. No one cared. The female student was always right. No one, student or teacher, was safe from attack. Universities did not follow their own rules. Many good professors lost jobs and left teaching. What a sad day for higher education. This book tells the story and it is sad.

Good, but Still Has a Few Kinks to Work Out

Line of Control is wonderful military novel with many twists and turns that keep the reader guessing what will happen next. Rovin illustrated wonderfully the conflict that would arise between two enemies who were forced to work together for the greater good.However, I do feel that the author does digress from the story a little too often. He sites previous books in the series more then is necessary for the storyline and over-explains military terms.But other then that I would suggest this novel to anyone who enjoys military or intellgence novels.

So it isn't politically correct...Jeez!

No Zulu war chants? This is a CD of music John Barry composed for the film Zulu. I imagine that the composer of the war chantswas someone very much entirely different. The chants are magnificent, don't get me wrong (didn't Ridley Scott transpose them to Gladiator, god knows how), but they don't belong here.Another case of taking political correctness to an absurd extreme. "Color Sergeant Bourne, what's that shooting?!" "A rifle, Hughes." Zulu is only a great movie, made better by crap like Gladiator and Troy, and Barry's score is one of his three or four best.

Buy this game for your PC

I've spent hours playing Quake 3 on my PC. These hours add up to days, months even. I play online. I play in tournaments online. I can't get enough. The PS2 version is a mere shadow of the PC version. Graphics are muddy (even with an S-Video connection), control is awful. I could write paragraphs expounding on the awfulness of the control. This game is designed for use with a keyboard and mouse. Some first person shooters can pull off the use of a controller (Southpark for N64 works wonderfully). If you've never played Quake 3 and you like first person shooters, buy it for PC (it almosts warrants buying the PC). Anyone who likes this game even a little for PC should not consider renting this game - in fact, avoid even looking in its general direction,I admit to playing only multiplayer (with two others). I did not try the story mode. I did not want to.Run away from this version. Better yet, destroy it as soon as you see it.

Amatuerish writing by an egomaniac with little to say.

I was initially shocked at the large point font. Later I realized that this was necessitated by the author's lack of writing or observational skills.The story starts strongly, but then wimpers out. He concentrates on the soap opera aspects of the climbing team while ignoring the human versus mountain drama.An annoying, frustrating little book after reading "Into Thin Air", "The Perfect Storm" and "Endurance".Look at the cover, then don't bother further with this one.

Improvement

This stand is well made, sturdy and easy to assemble.It is predrilled for mounting DeWalt planers.It comes with a package of 2 1/2" bolts for mounting the planer. When mounting my DeWalt 735, I found that 3" bolts were required.It would seem that DeWalt would know the proper size bolts for mounting their planer and include them in the hardware.

Her Other Books Are Better

Although Dara Joy is at the top of my list for favorite authors, her work was a real disappointment in this book. There were too many characters and subplots which---to me at least--- distracted from the main plot and focus of the hero and heroine. It was a cute idea, and I got a real belly-laugh over the one bedroom scene where the hero gets a black eye, but with Dara's incredible imagination I know she could have done better. Maybe it was the deadline...who knows?

Trek Mi Q'an Series

I am going to review the whole Trek Mi Q'an series to book 7 in this one review. I looked at Jaid Black's books because I read some great reviews on her. These seven books as she calls them have a great story line. A couple of them I am not even sure they are required for the story. We will find out when she completes the series. She may have created them just to get more money. Some of the books are a rip off for the are not very long. One is about 35 pages of story per my kindle fire, 29 pages per IPAD. It was listed as 154 pages on amazon. After I complete this series I will not buy any more of her books, as not sure if I will get the number of pages I think I am getting. I see others complained in their reviews of those about the price and how long they were. I want to know how it ends so it is the only reason I will only buy the last 3 books that will be out in the next 2 years.

Paranoid

Given the tone, this book is many things, but well researched is not one of them. Virulently anti-Gore, the authors are naturally predisposed to dig up information that allegedly cemments their own positions.Along with the familiar drivel about the environment and the internet, the authors "raise questions about Gore's character" Since sensationalism is all the authors seem to come up with, it is only fair to expose the author's lack of. Al Gore is hardly the extreme leftwing Democrat his detractors have painted him to be.Of course, this persistent stereotyping and misinformation does not establish good journalism, and the consumer is left with something that could be relegated to the trash bin. Individuals looking for a balanced work ought to spend their money else where.

Excellent Voice, Music, lyrics....

I bought this CD about a year and a half ago while I was still in Spain. It's a shame that we can't turn on a latin station, or any station for that matter, and listen to songs like theirs on the radio. The lead singer's voice is hypnotizing, very beautiful. Their lyrics are fantastic and I definitely recommend people buy their CD.

A game that shouldn't have been created

Mega Man has been a great game series, but Battle Chip Challenge is the worst game I've evered played. IN this game you collect battle chips and arrange them on a grid. You then enter a battle and use them on the enemy navi. Unfourtunly the chips are selected at random and since everything is done automaticly all you do is press L or R to use a chip asigned to that button, or the A button to keep things going. And don't think for a second that the process of obtaining battle chips can be fun like Nintendo Power Magazine said it would be, IT"S NOT! Are you looking for a club? Because if you were to get Mega Man BCC that's all you'll get, an expensive club. On the Scale of 1-5 this game is a -5.

Addictive!

Refreshing to see a new show like this. When it was first released, I thought how can they stretch a theme about two plastic surgeons into a successful series? Well they have, and each show is both engaging and exciting.Season 1 is worth seeing, but Season 2 is even better! Many people missed Season 1 on TV, so obtaining this DVD box gives you the chance to see how it all started.In Australia, we are viewing the final episodes of Season 2. It is so popular here that the Tv Network is broadcasting it twice a week. Each episode of this latest season is enthralling and hard to switch off. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a series so much.I was not a fan of Julian McMahon before this show mainly because I remembered the shows he was in here in Australia before moving to LA. However, he is outstanding in Nip/Tuck. He has certainly perfected his art since the old days.Well done!

Ever since I devoured "Shopaholic", I was awash with anticipation for another peek into Sophie's mind. Emma and Becky are strong women who know what they want...and they drag us with them trying to find it! I cannot wait for "Secret" to come out on audio tape! These stories are the only things that make a long, solitary drive tolerable. Way to go Sophie! Looking forward to a great deal more from you!

The first movie to actually Shock me!

I first saw this movie just 2 years ago. I had already seen Pulp fiction, Dead man, Straw dogs, Reservoir dogs and A Clockwork Orange. The hype about there violence was always over the top and I was never shocked, but Ricochet I had heard no hype for, and I was Plenty Shocked, which was a very new sensation. The film is great, but I don't think its the sort you'd want to watch over and over. Denzel is great, as usual.

Piece of junk

This pump only lasted about a month... I only pump about once a day, and although it worked great for a while, it didn't last. The motor suddenly began sputtering and eventually the suction gave out... Nothing I did could fix the problem. Evenflo does not give a whole lot of troubleshooting suggestions. The problem could of been milk in the motor, but the design is so that this is difficult to avoid. I would advise anyone to just spend the extra money in a better pump with better customer support. This one went in the trash.

Straight ripoff!! I'd rate this a -10 !!!

I can only agree with the other negative reviews. This "game" is a complete waste of time and money. Most "games" in this collection either wouldn't install or would freeze my system (and I'm not running junk here). I finally got "Pinball 10" to run but it is very sluggish. The support is a joke. I've expressed my displeasure but Encore has not gotten back with me. Likewise (as Lafayette Gamer), Encore will not have a repeat customer here.

See this movie just for Ian McKellen's performance!

"Gods and Monsters" is a superb movie about the last days of gay film director James Whale -- who directed "Frankenstein" and "Bride of Frankenstein". The acting is superb, especially Ian McKellan in the lead. I thought it dragged in a few areas, but on the whole it was a great movie.

Guesses

all religion is based on guesses, like science. this book is what he "thinks" heaven is, or he is just scamming this christian country for some money (most likey the latter). who knows if there is a god, we just assume there is because its been beaten in to american all the way from the indians. christian europeans came here, told the indians to belive in god or we will kill you. so this country became a forced christian country.noone really knows if there is after life. its all guesses. in my opinion, religion came from a need to explain something. if we couldnt explain something, then god did it. where do we come from? god did it. where do tress come from? god made them. where did the universe come from? god made it.makes perfect sense, this guy is just guessing his way to a fortune. wish i would have thought of this book.

not exactly what I had hoped for

I was kind of excited to find a book written by archeologists. I love historical fiction, and I am interested in the early Amerinds. Actually, there is a lot of good attention to detail in this book. Names of plants, ways of life: it all seemed very real. I found myself perusing an atlas: where exactly are these "sideways mountains"?However, there were some aspects of this book that really turned me off. Okay, I get it that Amerinds engaged in sexual relations. But it seemed a bit overdone. You know, the I-can't-give-this-to-my-teen feeling.What was worse was all the mysticism and spiritual stuff. Again, I understand why it was included. But it was incredibly overdone, consuming many pages. I finally had to stop reading. The theology of these people (as imagined) was so illogical as to be painful, and it threw a wrench into what was otherwise good writing.Think of "Dune" only set in Montana. Actually the Dune universe made more sense.

Best book on the treatment and care of the bowed tendon

Very few have been able to write about the injury, treatment and care so concisely and understandabley to all horse owners. the author never talks down to the reader, instead, communicates on the level of all readers. The first part of the book is devoted to the injury and how it happens and its effects on the horse. The second part of the book is about the treatment and successive training afterward. This is an indispensible book for all horse owners and lovers.

Not same class as "Somewhere In Time"

I stumbled upon this as I searched for a copy of "Somewhere in Time". The outstanding 5-star reviews led me to order it, even though it was comparatively expensive. What a sucker. Made for TV, this movie just doesn't ever allow the suspension of disbelief. The dialogue is weak, the acting forced and unconvincing and the technical aspects just silly (like the soap-opera recovery from prolonged traumatic coma). No music. No magic. Rent if you must (if you can find it) but save your money.
