This book does not inspire me
I believe this book is full of padding,- there are indeed a lot of recipes in the book but frankly they aren't very good and they do not inspire me to stay on the Low Carb way of life. The recipes are simple but to my mind the taste is just not good enough. The chili doesn't have any cumin in it which I regard as essential for this dish. My favorite book in this category is "Carb-less in Seattle," which has the best pasta, pastry and bread I have encountered. And no padding!

Small Sack of dry beans and a few tiny packets of spices
I am an avid amazon.com user for many years and I love the site...I am guilty of reading many reviews and not writing any, on this particular item, I had to make this my second written review...Rather than make it long and drawn out I can just say while the recipe to the chili is good, other than a sack of beans and a few worthless spices, this is a total rip off...For all practical purposes your paying for a recipe THE END....Do yourself a favor and just get a good chili recipe and make it yourself and save the money...To say the least I am very disappointed and will NEVER order again...If I could give it ZERO stars I would...

The biggest media-hoax ever! ZERO STARS!!
This horror movie is so sadly bad, it is not even funny. After seeing it I was so angry that I wasted those eight bucks. I decided right there and then , that this movie was either paid off to movie critics to give an independent film a chance. That's not a bad idea maybe, but this movie is horrible. Tha actors are annoying brats in the woods, and they go on bickering throughout the entire movie, loudly, til you get a headache. It is NOT scary at all. All these top movie critics must have been given money or hallucigens to rate this movie 4 Stars out of 4!!!Come on! I watch alot of movies and is pretty critical, and this has to be one of the dumbest excuses for art I have ever seen.EVER!!!

Adorno Hates You!
John Edward gives people exactly what he wants to here. He's like a politician with a campaign speech, if people don't respond to his rants like he wants, he pretends he never said the thing they ignore. If a politician feels a stance of his isn't giving them the response they want, they drop for something that will give them more votes, i.e. audience memebers. Giving people a false sense of hope through the use of vague statements and an understanding of human nature is a vile thing to do. Buts its the people who buy the books and watch the show that I really feel sorry for. Edward is a sideshow proprietor. He draws people in with a shrewd business sense and a gimmick, the two-headed fetus being his 'gift'. End of story.

I'd give this product a 4 rating if it charged my iPods (2nd Gen iPod Touch and 4th Gen iPod Nano.) It plays just as advertised, but on a long trip, you'll need to unplug it and use a separate charger (No music while this is happening) :(

It's no Van Helsing, but it's close
This was an excellent vampire movie. I read reviews that said it's not close to the book...who cares? This movie was action packed, plausable (as plausable as a vampire movie can be), and very well done. I plan on adding this to my collection right next to Van Helsing and Underworld.

Good Game Marred by Inferior Materials
The biggest problem with this particular make of the game is that the rods used to move the ball are made of a metal that is not nearly strong enough to control the ball with any precision. As the ball starts to drop between them, instead of being able to bring the rods together and raise the ball back up, the rods are too soft and bend around the ball.Lesson learned... try before you buy.

Enjoyable and Touching
I really enjoyed this movie. It doesn't seem to have the usual stereotypes. Just honest emotions from the principal players. One doesn't have to be gay to appreciate the feelings the two lead characters so obviously have for each other. Sweet and touching and I would highly recommend it to anyone who's grown a little tired of the trite gay coming out movies so abundantly available these days. Sure it's obviously made on a budget but the simple story more than makes up for it.

Probably mislabeled, definitely overpriced
I suspect that this item is mislabeled. There is no need for a 'PS3' memory card whatsoever. The original PS3 models did have the ability to read memory sticks and other formats but this is no longer the case. Anyways, the idea behind the PS3 being able to read memory sticks was for someone to take it from a camera or some other device and 'stick' it into the PS3 to transfer photos or whatever other content. There isn't and there was never such a thing as a PS3 MEMORY CARD.And, since this is a memory card, for about the same amount that this item sells for, you can get a SanDisk stick that's FOUR TIMES as large:SanDisk 8GB Memory Stick Pro Duo.

Very inspiring but don't like abs bit
I really like this gal. She is funny and inspiring and I like most of the exercises, so that I can get my teenaged daughter to do them along with me. The one thing I do not like or believe in is all of her Abs work. I have always noticed (and this was no exception here) that doing crunches just pops out the fat over your ab muscles and makes you look thicker through the middle. So, unless you have very little body fat already, I cannot recommend the crunch parts. I am average build 5'4" and 115 lbs and exercise regularly, but still find this part not to work for lovely middles. Other than that, I love that you can do a quite exhausting workout in only 20 minutes per day and in your home. Now there really aren't too many reasons not to exercise.

The War Between the States
This PBS history lesson shows that Ken Burns knows how to spin the Federalist position as saviors of the Union. It does not do justice to the many brave lads who fought and died defending their homes and lifestyle against the vicious invading forces of Mr. Lincoln. Certainly the winners write the history books but the honor of those brave men and women of the South will live on forever. Addionally no one should ever forget the brutality of the federalists both during and after the war between the states.

Disappointed
I purchased this to keep phone and money dry while at pool park with grandchildren. I found some moisture does seep in, so I use a freezer bag inside the Dry Pak. Using the freezer bag inside Dry Pak has worked. However, after approximately 6 uses, the material is freying away from the yellow fastener bar and the seams down the side.

NOT BACKLIT!!! Very misleading!
It's a very nice looking and feeling keyboard, but reading the description it sounds like it's a backlit keyboard. Only after receiving it did I realise it's only the additional controls that have backlighting! What's the point in backlighting a few controls, but leaving the KEYS on a KEYBOARD unlit?!!! This is in the "backlit" catagory in the Amazon search, which is VERY misleading!! Combined with the non-replaceable battery that many report going bad very quickly and I'm considering returning this keyboard.

A booze-soaked love letter
It's 2:00am and that bottle of Jack is paying you back, whispering loneliness. You think back to the girl you once loved - the girl you lost. You know you shouldn't think of her, but it's as if the memory itself is what drives you.Tom Waits gave us a nice collection of tunes with this album. "Martha" is beautiful. "Lonely" is what it is. It's funny... Mention Tom Waits to most people, and - if they even know who he is - they'll just see him as this Charles Bukowski guy with a hoarse voice. The early Tom Waits gave us some of the most beautiful ballads. He paints a picture that few (Springsteen, Nick Cave are the only ones that come to mind) could ever rival. His work is infused with poetic grace; his is a drunken ode to melancholy.This album, like "Frank's Wild Years", is a perfect introduction to his music. Check it out...

Clumsy
The authors acknowledge "the vagaries of translation," then fall victim to them. Overwordy, inconsistent and sometimes just plain sloppy. Translates _ren_ as "authoritative," which is about the most misleading choice I've ever seen. The notes and discussion, however, are quite good, and the original Chinese text is included. Pinyin romanization.

some quality tunes
I first heard of Helio Sequence through Brandon's dad, whom I have the privilage of knowing. All of the reviews I've read for this band have been quite positive, and there's a great reason. Normally, this isn't my style of music, but it's hard not to sit back and enjoy the mood Helio creates. Furthermore, Brandon and Ben did everything on the album themselves and that deserves some major props. Go out on a limb and check out a band you may not have considered before. If nothing else, do it to support some true musicians.

Panasonic 695 Microwave
This is the worst product I have owned in some time. It quit working about a year after purchase. The unit would go off after 6 seconds. Of course the warranty had expired. Contacted a local servicing dealer who said they would charge 45.00 to look at it and would call if the repair cost over 75.00. That is the price of a new unit! I contacted Panasonic thinking I might buy a new relay. They do not sell parts. They could not help me. I am so old I remember good service.I bought a new Sharp-never a Panasonic item again!

What we don't know about Asian history
My wife asked me to find this for her - she had read a Spanish translation that was given to her and wanted to read Lamb's great book in original English. She was not disappointed, and particularly liked the maps that came with this version of the book which made it even more interesting to read of this ancient history of which so many of us are so parochially ignorant. I recommend this to anyone with an interest in history and how it relates to our present circumstances. This book is well-written and fascinating, an account of a leader and conquerer so long ago who did so much for those under his control. Don't miss it.

Depressing -
"Never Let Me Go" was recommended to me as a new kind of science fiction movie. However good the actors were the story is just depressing, sort of an eerie George Orwell tale. It is filmed in a cold and windy England, and the children are beautiful but destined for a sad and short future. I understand no one wants to die, but this was just morbid and sickening to watch. Without giving away too much of the plot, you keep hoping that the stars have a normal life, but it is not to be. People in the theatre just sat stunned after the ending, looking at each other and shrugging shoulders. I don't know why it has such high ratings, the script is obtuse and drags on for a less than stellar revelation about life - there is never enough time.I give all the actors credit to make this picture a hit, but for me it was boring and sad.

There are only wonderful basslines in it
Do you want to understand what some people call "emo-core"? Listen to the (only) Crownhate Ruin LP. One song can get you excited (I would recommend "Stretched too thin"). But on the long run this LP is annoying: the voice is shouting to the irritation, guitars are elementary and sharp. But listen carefully to the bass!! The sound is deep, doughy... the lines are funky, filled with notes... I don't know why the producer keeps it often in the background. This could be the only reason to buy this album. Anyway, the bass player's name is Fred Erskine. So why don't you simply listen to June of 44 (especially "Four Great Points") to listen to the greatest bass player in circulation? If you are addict to late Dischord-sound you own it already or you are going to buy it anyway. (And don't get angry, I were one too: I own this album and Fugazi still are my favorite group).

Race Car Chassis Design and Construction
Engineering for the Non Engineer. Don't be scared. No math is involved. Just a clear overview of the history and current state of the art of race car chassis design. This book is simple enough for the interested fan but envolved enough to provide a starting place for the aspiring race car engineer. Want to know why tube frame chassis are steel, but stressed skin chassis are aluminum or carbon graphite? Forbes Aird tells you. He even tells you what tube frame and stressed skin chassis are. Probably not for the most casual fan, but they won't be attracted by the title anyway. A good book.

Another jewel
This album has proved to be very different from what I've heard from Morten before. It's the first album I get in his mother tongue. Equally strong and moving, this collection of Norwegian poems about the evangelium is something special. Not for everybody, since is not just another set of songs. The influence of classical music in some of the songs is also great. Highly recommendable!

Is this spirituality?
The idea that there are really angels out there, and one is assigned to take care of us, is an extremely childish idea. All you have to do is look at the devastation around you, the pain and the needless suffering to convince you that it is not so.One can ask angels anything, we find out in this booklet, from a house to a car, a girlfriend or even a parking spot on a busy day.This is not materialism, the authors inform us, it is self-empowerment. With this nonsense, modern American spirituality has touched rock bottom. I just hope this is a fad that passes through quickly. Certainly the angel of the two authors has delivered big! With their terminal cheerfulness they have touched the life of many innocent American souls and vastly expanded their bank account.

A deep book, but at times a difficult premise
I had a hard time with this book. I started out liking it, and I do 'get it', but I cannot agree with the overall conclusion of the book: that the book of revelation is simply a book applicable for any time in history where persecution and compromise are widespread. As I search through several different bibles, look at the world today in light of history, and search my own feelings about what John was actually writing about and to whom, I am struck with the overwhelming conclusion that the revelation was and is anything but a kind of fuzzy, nonspecific book of the bible. Far from it. It takes more than scholarly logic to understand it. It takes faith. Either you 'see the signs of the times' or you have closed your eyes to the obvious. This was one of my main problems with the book.Nonetheless, if you have the patience, it may be a different perspective worth reading about, if only to see a 'possibly' incorrect interpretation.

What a surprise!
This album has twice the substance of the current Sixpence None the Richer album. While it lacks a strong pop song like "There She Goes Again", it more than makes up for it with deeply introspective lyrics and edgy guitar riffs. Leigh's vocals are breathy, haunting whispers which beg you to crank up the volume.Slap on the headphones, close your eyes and crank it as high as you can take it!

Island Gal "Sue"
This product was first recommended by a physical therapist I was seeing two years ago. I purchased it through her business. "Slippery Stuff Gel" is the best personal lubricant on the market. The viscosity level of this product is incredible. It is FDA registered, non-staining, water- soluble, long lasting, odorless and glycerin free. I am latex sensitive, I have sensitive skin and dryness has been a big problem since menopause. I have been using it exclusively for two years now. "Slippery Stuff" eliminates dryness and enhances the pleasure of pyhsical intimacy once again. "Slippery Stuff Gel" is the ultimate in personal hygenic lubricants.

Watch your ears.
Bought these as a replacement for my Panasonic RPHC300 noise-cancelling headphones, which I was very happy with, but which broke on me. These were slightly cheaper and cool-looking, so I took a chance.Unfortunately, not only is the sound a little muffled and bassy, but the "noise-cancelling" actually produces a nearly-painful low-frequency thudding sound. It's faint, but it seems to produce pressure on the ear in the closed space within the over-the-ear headphone. After a couple of days with these (and I wear headphones 12-15 hours a day as part of my job), my right ear was ringing. This still has not entirely gone away. Sent an email to Skullcandy days ago, asking if this was some kind of malfunction, but still have not received a reply, hence seeking relief here.So, to sum up: sound -- not great; noise-cancelling -- disastrous. If you buy these, I recommend NOT using that feature.

Great router bit set for the money.
About 20 years ago I used to be a professional cabinetmaker. I'm still a wood hobbyist. When I was a professional, I would have never thought of buying a cheap set of bits like this, but I have learned over the years that unless you use this equipment everyday, buying top brand stuff is not necessary. I can buy 2 of these sets for the cost of 2 name brand bits. That being said I did a lot of searching before I decided to buy this set. It was the most bang for the buck. So far I have used 4 of the bits. I used one of the straight bits for about an hour, and it did not fail or loose paint. I'm pretty happy with the set.

Well Worth The Wait....
Plain and simple, this album was well worth the 3 years that I waited for it. I just got it last night and have probably already listened to it 8 times or so. It is so good. The lyrics, which are mostly written by lead guitarist Carl Bell, are great. They show that Fuel have matured a lot. The one thing I noticed also, Carl Bell has a lot more guitar solos on this one. They add an extremely nice touch. Right now, to me, there is not one bad song on this CD. This CD is quite possibly the best CD I've heard this year. The only one that might be better is 14 Shades Of Grey from Staind. But, yea, this is a great album. If you're a Fuel fan, you need to get this. Even if you're new to Fuel, still get it, you won't be disappointed.Best Songs:Down Inside Of YouMillion MilesFalls On MeThese ThingsMost Of AllDie Like ThisLuck

Nothing like a "Black Comedy" Western
"3 Burials of Melquiades Estrada" flies under-the-radar, and is a great little movie. It starts off rather slowly and then descends into a delicious stew of hopeless Western Cow town "backwaters" of West Texas, and predictable actions, resulting in improbable and downward-spiraling outcomes, which one can only imagine from modern Western novels. Many ironies are on display, such as Rednecks (with all of their faults) trying to keep the illegal immigrant Mexicans out of their awful, "White" environment, while the Mexicans themselves are portrayed as being much more kind, humane, and generous than their opposition, i.e. the USA border patrol cops. Without giving away the plot, if you like "Fargo", "No Country for Old Men", and "Burn After Reading", you will enjoy this film. Tommy Lee Jones has a fine eye for the West, and acquits himself nicely as a director. I give it 4-1/2 stars!

Very Good
The Dreaming is a spooky horror manga about a Victorian-style private school in a remote area of Australia. Twin teenage girls who just arrived at the school soon find there is something sinister about not only the school, but the surrounding area. What is the strange history of the school and why does one of the twins visit it in her dreams?Author Queenie Chan based the story on a famous Australian book/movie called Picnic at Hanging Rock. Hanging Rock is about a girls' school in Victorian times and the strange disappearance of three students. The movie is so well-done that most who saw it believed the fictional story to be historically true. Indeed, The Dreaming is very much like the movie, and was one of the reasons I was attracted to the book. The manga art is good, but not quite as good as the story. Chan draws backgrounds more convincingly than characters.Can't wait for volume two, coming in November 2006!

Comedy! Romance! Music! And a twenty-sided die...
Mr. Jealousy isn't your typical romantic comedy. It's smart, without being condescending. It's romantic, but not in the all-too-typical Hollywood fashion. And it has one of the best soundtracks of all time. Huh? you say as you wonder if I've had too much caffiene (which I usually do). The most overlooked portion of most movies is the music. It usually justs bobs along, telling us what we're supposed to feel without ever really envoking any true feelings. The soundtrack for Mr. Jealousy, however, stirs the pot of emotions already brewing in your soul from the movies brilliant dialogue (make sure to stick around after the credits!) and the superb chemistry between Stoltz and Sciorra. A must see for fans of the genre (ie. movies that are actually good), Mr. Jealousy deserves the acclaim that only underground success can bring.

Slippery hands ? Buy this mat !
I was skeptical when reading that this was the mat preferred by most yoga instructors. It seemed like a generic marketing tool. But I was curious about the anti-slip quality and liked the fact that it was natural rubber.After using it the first time, I was sold ! Jade Harmony Professional mat is worth every dollar. The grip is incredible. There is a slight static cling to my mat but I imagine it will go away with usage. And I prefer the rubber smell any day over the cheap PVC yoga mats out on the market. Plus, Jade plants a tree for every mat sold. Gotta love a company who is environmentally active.

THIS IS A COOL MOVIE, AND I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE SEQUAL. THOMAS JANE IS REAL TOUGH AS CASTLE AKA THE PUNISHER. THIS IS NOT A BAD BLU RAY.

No Permanent Reprieve
This second installment of the Walking Dead comics covers (in a very basic way) season two of the television show. The group is no longer safe camping outside of Atlanta so they decide to try to find a new location further out in the boonies. A new family, Tyrese, a former NFL player, his daughter Julia, and her boyfriend Chris, join the group and help with the manual labor. On their travels, they find an abandoned housing complex at Christmastime and aside from a few zombies, it appears to be empty, so they begin to hunker down. But the group soon discovers that no place is entirely safe. Even the living can pose a threat, but tragedy sometimes brings reprieve.This book delves a bit deeper into the restlessness of the group and the conflicts between the members.

Try this if you tried everything else.
I heard this CD played in a record store and couldn't stop moving to the music. I asked the cashier what was playing and bought it on the spot. I was so tired of everything and wanted something new and this was it. The beats are infectious and the tunes vary across the board.

Honesty in Advertising
Take this review with a grain of salt, but when I googled "garmin 010-10691-05", a page popped up indicating this map is from Nov 2005. Hey, it's 2012 and in the realm of GPS maps this is OLD. Under no circumstances should outdated maps such as these be advertised for sale without a clear indicator of age. How outdated it is? Depends on how many changes have taken place since 2005. Could it still be usable? Yes it could. Since you can purchase this map new directly from Garmin for about $20 more, it does not seem to be a bargain. Could I be wrong about the age? It's possible, but check it out before purchase.

A little says a lot.
I want to praise not the product but Eforcity and Amazon for Excellent customer service. The order didn't arrive for more than a month. When I informed Amazon, it took immediate action and Eforcity sent me a new one right away. OK, it was an insignificant item but Eforcity's action was significant. I will certainly buy from them again.

Defective
Used this toaster for only the 2nd or 3rd time. About 10 seconds after starting the toast, it popped loudly and started smoking. I was able to unplug it before it burned down the house. I am extremely glad I hadn't left the room.

Amazing bass but..
The bass on these headphones is amazing. They're very comfortable but the sound quality leaves a bit to be desired. Overall they are a good deal for the price.

Good scale, but why not include an AC adaptor?
Excellent scale I've used for years off and on. I used to use this model daily when I worked with wildlife to weigh small animals, now use it to monitor the weight of my own parrot. Also comes in handy when selling stuff online to know the exact shipping price.I just don't like having to rely on batteries, I prefer plugging into an outlet (neither power sources included). Would be a 5 star product if it included and AC adapter for the same price.

Perfection.
If you want quality one of the best pieces PRIDE FC has to offer, you have found it. This is a MUST OWN for any MMA fan. Final Conflict '05, the last of the three events in this box set, might be the best MMA event ever put on, with one of the most important matches to ever take place (Cro Cop vs. Fedor).

Sneaky sneaky!!!
Seriously PUR! SERIOUSLY!!! I have been using these 2 stage filters for 4+ yrs now and over the past few months it's apparent that Proctor & Gamble have let their corporate greed take priority. Don't get me wrong these filters used to be the best I have seen (key word being USED) but what once worked for 2 to 4 months depending on use now only works for 2 or 3 weeks, if you're lucky. As other reviewers here have mentioned I also thought it may be an issue with a particular batch or lot number, but having gone through 6 filters (2 sets of 3) ordered from both Target and online and having the same issue with all 6 it's obvious that someone in a boardroom asked why make a product that lasts as long as it does when we can sell the same thing with a shortened life span for the same $ increasing profits 3 fold....Sad but that's the case.*Hopefully if enough people voice their disapproval, PUR might revert back to what once was an awesome product.

outdated and manipulative
When I started in sales I was encouraged to read this book. I started to have real success when I threw it out. The ideas are manipulative and coercive and only appear to upset customers who have heard it all before a thousand times. In this book customers are just "marks" not people with real ideas and real needs. It probably worked in the early eighties but customers have changed. Time to retire this old chestnut.

I would give it zero stars if i could.
Unbelievably terrible movie, and a terrible transfer. I'd go into more detail, but that would require that i think about the movie again, and i refuse to make myself do that.

Speed needed
Picture card bought for Olympus SP-55OUZ. Was told when camera was bought that the "D" card was fast enough for the camera. Unfortunately with indoor lighting there is too much of a shutter delay. The "H" card does much better.

Excellent
I am an Electrical Engineer and had the usual education. It is a delight to read this book and learn about the fundamental theory upon which much of the Electrical Engineering profession is based.Much of what we are taught in schools is an approximation and sometimes wrong. It is great to learn, even if it is only qualitatively, about more accurate representations.I wish that Feynman were alive to keep updating his lectures with the latest developments. The lectures seem to have been last updated in 1980s and I am sure Physics has moved on since then.

Love, Hope, Faith
I glanced at "A Walk to Remember" because of the title, read it because of the blurb, and made it one of the very few books I own because I loved it after I read it. I'll admit, I figured out the ending very early into the book. But I loved the book so much that didn't hurt the reading one bit. The whole story is wonderful and I've read it several times since.I'm not a fan of Sparks- I've read "The Notebook" and the blurbs & reviews for his other books but didnt like any of them. But "AW2R" is a very touching, moving story about hope, faith, and love (the 3 things in live you should never to lose) which I still read every now and again. It's one of the best books I've ever read. If you like Sparks' other stuff, you'll like this. And if you're like me and the subject matter touches your heart, you'll really love the book.

What could be funnier?
This is the funniest book I have ever read. There were times where I had to stop because it was so funny. Here is a funny quote: "When you read a good book it is like a author is right there. Sitting and Talking to you right there. That is why I don't like to read books." Ha! Ha! It gets better. So go out and buy the series (don't forget this one), today!ONLY IF YOU DARE!

Lippman Does it Again
Tess Monaghan shines in Lippman's new novel, IN BIG TROUBLE. Tess is portrayed, as always, as a completely believable and yet extremely strong female character. Finding her ex-bofriend Crow, and solving the murders that surround him, make for a very interesting and entertaining read. Lippman's writing style also lends to the enjoyment of this book. I highly recommend it; however, if you've never read Lippman you should probably start at the beginning of the "Tess" series.

Average Reader
The book is totally cofusing and full of contradictions. Reminds of a road map that takes you everywhere and nowhere.it states that the foods with high GI range, should generally be avoided. Then it lists banana, pineapple, and cantaloup as higher than average. Based on this book then, these fruits are not good food anymore! He mentions that he does not expect us to carry calculator when we dine, but that's exactly what we should do if we follow his convoluted directions. It is not even good reading. The only thing I found out from his book that French Fries is bad for you. Big deal, most people who buy the book, already know that.why is he promoting supplement? isn't a dangerous proposition if you are not careful. Is he catering to the supplement industry as well.

What were they thinking?
I can not believe that CBS is still trying to make money off this crap. If the show was so terrible that it couldn't finish one season on basic cable, what makes you think it is good enough to own. This is a watered-down pathetic version of the movie. If you can't get all the original charecters, then you shouldn't even try. The Sex and the City guy is not the husband in this show. BOO! Don't pay for something that you didn't watch when it was free on TV. Very Bad.

One the best SF shows on TV
As I had season 1 to 3 I could not resist adding the 4th season when I saw what a great price it was. By golly only $20.00 for six discs. I will be looking for the fifth and final season when it is released.

Having been involved in a politically driven issue that threatened the serenity and security of my neighborhood and having to do battle with a variety of special interests, I can honestly say this book is a "how to" with substance.

After using this a few times a day, the roller brush stopped working after 2 weeks. I was very dissapointed as Bissell usually makes good products. I have changed to the manual carpet sweeper for quick clean ups.

Examples+ Learning-
If you want to just copy code from the book and paste it on your websites, this is the book for you. In which case, you may as well download JavaScripts from some website. It does have line-by-line explanations for the scripts, but the explanations are not that great. it's not organized in the best manner, either. I never understood loops reading this book until I started learning Perl and used a book that explained it. Then I understood how to use them in JavaScript. If you want to actually learn to code, rather that just copy code, I'd suggest a different book.

What have they done to my book!
John W. Campbell is one of the masters of old style Sci-fi. I have had my original paperback for years and was very concerned about damaging it. When I bought this I thought that his was a real re-print of this masterpiece.It's not a reprint, but basically a bad xerox of a paperback and printed on larger paper. There are monstrous margins around the copy. A lot of the pages are actually crooked and edges are cut off.I can't believe someone would not reprint the book but butcher this master work by just doing a cheap photo-copy.This work by Campbell is an classic! This particular book is a cheap farce!

It's a rental
Wow, I love all the "customer" reviews. Seems like every movie has marketers that troll customer reviews and hype up their movies. I would give it a three but with all these stellar fake reviews I'll give it a one.This one is a solid rental, nothing more. If you are expecting witty dialog and lot's of scares and commedy then you wont find it here. It's got a few of each making it worth a watch, but not paying full price. If you want my copy I donated it to the local library. You can check it out for free.

a good profile of codependency?
I loved this book as a child -- it was read to my class by my favorite teacher. But upon reading it as an adult, I came to the conclusion I loved it because Miss Helms read it. The relationship between the tree and the boy is unhealthy for both, like far too many relationships I've seen. I would only read it to my children when they were at a level of understanding where they could analyze a bad relationship, maybe -- perhaps after they'd had a selfish taking friend who took advantage of them.

Tiresome
Raymond Feist is a great writer and has produced some milestone fantasy books but sadly lets himself (and the reader) down with this one. I had read the reviews about the game influence on the book, but was prepared to make my own mind up. In the end the reviews were right, this is too one dimensional and is a series of little tasks rather then a flowing story supported by the characters that Feist usually does so well.Best avoided, but if you are a potential first time reader then read the brilliant Magician instead.

Disappointing and Broken
Everything started out fine, but within 3 weeks my machine was unusable. Recording was easy from my camcorder, though I never got it to work with my VCR; playback has been a nightmare - progressively over the last 2 weeks my machine has been getting worse and worse: freezing and skipping are the primairy problems with, now, such frequency, I can't watch anything. I've tried different DVD's and to no avail. I've tried cleaning, to no avail. I'm just returning my machine to Amazon, hopefully for a refund so I can choose another manufacturer. If you plan on using this only for recording from you camcorder- this is the machine for you. Otherwize pick another unit.

I have 6 kids and I only bought this for the sixth. We only used it once and he hated it. It was too big and the velcro was LOUD and awkward.
