Absolutely Absorbing!!
Heart of the Sea was awesome!! I couldn't put it down. Nora Roberts combines the present with the slightest bit of the past. She introduces you to the Irish culture and and their belief in magic. You find yourself yelling at the characters- stop being so stubborn! This book hooked me on her others as well. For another great one try the Stanislaski Sisters- it's much much better than the back of the book leads on.

I'm Leaving You - For Me
"Best of Con Funk Shun" has all my favorite songs by this Vallejo California group. I listen to this cd when I'm exercising and/or cooking. I play it all the time! One of my favorite songs on this cd is "I'm leaving you for me"! (not sure if that's the title) Me and my family and friends always end up partying to this cd. FUN! FUN! FUN!

Wasted Money - It does fall apart easily
My poor unsuspecting son was soo excited when he saw the pirate box set but within seconds of opening the package the pirate flag's stick broke off (a slight premonition of things to come). The toy is cheaply, cheaply made. The hat is made of plastic, doesn't resemble much of a pirate hat and does not fit securely on my son's head. The treasure box does not open (what is the point). Where am I going to store the treasure of rubies and gold coins?? I'm sure they'll be safely lost in the couch abyss. The hook is loose and will probably fall apart after a few more uses. The chain broke after the first use. I don't know what i was thinking buying this particular kit. I feel so many things are missing and to make things worse, whatever items I do have will fall apart soon.If I could easily return it I WOULD!

VCR makes too much noise
The TV and DVD fuctions are great. The only problem I have is when I watch a VHS there is a loud hum while a tape is inside (Playing or not) the unit. That hum makes it impossible to covertly watch an adult movie without getting caught by your spouse. Also, when you hit stop the unit makes a loud noise. The DVD portion is quiet and the transition back to a cable channel is fast and soundless. Bottom Line. If you are watching something you don't your wife to know about use the DVD. Still a good buy for a bedroom TV. I also have it hooked up to my mini sound system and it looks and sounds great.

Basically, these head phones are awesome by comparison of a regular none ps3 blue tooth. When i use my blue tooth my firends online say I'm not coming in clear and i lose signal the device disconnects from my ps3 wireless which is bad big time.... as far as the the logitech headset its has a long cord with may be a good or bad thing depending on your setup never disconnects always doing what its supposed to do only issue is people say they can barely hear me it rarely other than that 4/5

God Knows His Name
This is an incredible story of a deaf man who was found wandering the streets of Jacksonville, IL and subsequently institutionalized at Lincoln State School and Colony. It is an easy-to-read account that tells about all of the horrors and abuses that John Doe No. 24 endured and the way he survived it all. When he also went blind, he was almost totally disconnected from he world. Yet, somehow, he maintained a sense of humor and enjoyed the simple things of life.Anyone interested in the beginning of what is now called "Special Education" should read this book. Highly recommended.

Super Reader
While Conan of Venarium is readable enough, the boy band reject on the cover, and the scence of Conan chopping the vegetables in the kitchen alongside his ailing mother are all rather incongruous, and I am sure I am not the only one that feels that way.Alternate history may be Turtledove's thing, but not much place for it here.

great chapters on psychologie
The book has 3 parts, psychologie, technical analyses and moneymanagement. This is a great book for beginners with technical analyses, but an even better book for the parts on psychologie and money management witch are the basics for every trader. No matter how good youre system is, if youre mind and money management are not in balance you will loose anyway. A must reed for every trader imho.

Nothing "good" is from today
There were only a handful of 80's garage bands that really had any lasting impact. John Weiss & the Vipers were certainly one of them. I had the vinyl version of this shortly after its release & this cd has the original track listing & about 5 or so very cool bonus trax. The Vipers had solid harmony, fuzzy hooks & good songs like "Cheated & Lied", "Nothings from Today" "Were Outa Here" & the fuzz drenched cover of the Standells "Medicaion" that is up there with the original. If you are fan of 60's garage rock, a la "nuggets" you need this record & you will highly enjoy it. The only thing better was seeing them live....I'm outta here now.

OK as a toy, not great as a story
The text of this book doesn't flow or make much sense. It should have been left as a picture book only. On the up side, it makes a nice rattle noise and is cloth. Also, watch out for the cloth book, "Jingle Bear," -- it has the same problem!

Brief, but revelatory
Where does meat come from? Not from the classic, Old MacDonald farm popular in images on packages of bacon and butter. The modern factory farm is a place of horror for sentient creatures. This video is brief enough to fit into a coffee break, but packs a lot of information into each segment. Very well done.

The best book
Thsi is the best book I have ever read! I read it 3 times in row, and I mean in a row. Right when I finished it I began reading it again! It's a bit like Cinderella. With a wicked stepmother, balls, and a prince. But this is even better. Ella has a curse on her- obedience! Any time some one says she must do some thing she must! That's why she's trying to find the fary that put the curse on her so she can marry Prince Char.

SEGA at it's finest
Jet Set Radio Future is a good example of SEGA's innovative game creation and shows why the X-Box is perfect for games such as this. The graphics are colorful and fast, zooming by at a steady framerate. The music is very energetic and sets the right mood whenever you play. The control is simple and the camera, though sometimes bad, usually displays the action correctly. The levels are gigantic and you can nearly grind on anything. The real fun of the game is exploring the huge levels and finding ways to link tricks together. I found the game enjoyable and upbeat, although I got annoyed by certain parts of certain levels. You would be missing out on a beautiful and enjoyable game if you didn't buy Jet Set Radio Future.

Trouble is, the ending is such a let down it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. So bad you forget about all the good stuff. Monty Python may have been pure genius, but there's a big difference between a comic troupe writing performance material, and a lone member writing a novel. Eric Idle is no author.

Great features, horrible battery life
This product has great features, is easy to use, and has a fantastic form factor.It's easy to make nice labels, they look great when they print, and it has a handy groove to help you separate the label from its backing after you cut it off.HOWEVER, it has a huge flaw: the battery life is horrible. It would be one thing if "horrible" meant having to replace them once a month. If you use this device daily, you will be replacing them every 2 or 3 days. Sometimes I put in brand new batteries, that maybe aren't straight from the store but have been sitting in a drawer for a few months, and after I print the FIRST label, I get the low battery indicator.For the price, the design and features of this product are PERFECT. However, I would not recommend this product to anyone, only because of the battery life.

Kasey the Kinderbot is truly the best toy I ever purchased! I have a 3 year old girl and an 8 year old boy and both love it. It really does make learning fun for both of them. Both have used it constantly. Luckily, my son is gone to school all day.I had the 2XL Robot as a kid and this is basically the same thing but even better. Better get yours sooner rather than later. This toy will most likely be the HOT toy for this Christmas season.

Read With Me DVD - too slow to respond
I purchased this for my 5 and 3 yr old daughters - it took some patience to set up, but finally we were ready to play. Unfortunately, when playing the games on it and you press the buttons to answer the questions, it takes A LONG time for the program to respond - my daughter was very agitated with the controller and the fact that it was just sitting there - then FINALLY after 25 seconds, it responded by saying "Correct" - way too much patience expected for a 5 yr old. Fisher Price told me that is just how it works - we are sending it back to them for a voucher for other FP products...

Nice start
While I didn't care for how overwhelmed the good-guys seemed all the time, I did enjoy the actual story. One problem... A 14-15 year old boy is going to react differently to a woman than he did. The character seems much less mature than he is. It's more like he is a 9-10 year old than a teenager. It was obvious that the author intended something happening between the Cursor and the uncle, but the way that the boy reacted to her was wrong. He would have been embarassed about being around her, but he would have been attracted to her too....

Just wanted to say that I loved the novel. I'm just now getting into reading, but reading this novel has made me want to continue to read and search for talent as great as Tracy. It was amazing and like Tracy said, it's not a book on a one woman experience but many. I didn't only see myself in many of these parts, but also family and friends.

Good product, not so good accesories
I've been using this exclusively as a beard and mustache trimmer, so most of the accessories have been left with no use as of yet. The trimmer works really good, and battery has lasted for quite a while (I've trimmed my beard at least 3 times already on the first full charge, and have yet to need a recharge).The reason I'm giving this product only 4 stars instead of 5 is the awful mount it has for the accessories and trimmer. I tried for over an hour trying to figure out where goes what, but was stumped. After that, I just put the accessories in a box and kept out the charger and the trimmer.Still, I'd fully recommend it.

a tough little guy
There are bigger data keys, and there may be faster data keys, but I've had this one for almost four years now, and it's about the most reliable electronic device I own. I've carried it in pockets for 4 years, dropped it, stepped on it, gotten it muddy and sandy and soaked with sea water, and I've even accidentally put it through the washer and drier a few times. I've never lost data, and the thing still works like it always has. Most electronic widgets seem designed to self destruct within 18 months, but this one wears like it's made of steel.

Rolled The Dice And Took My Chances
Before buying an Extigy I read the reviews on this and other sites. The consensus was that people either love this device or hate it. Hoping that I would be one of the lucky ones, I boughtone from CompUSA. Following the installation my screen turned a hazy green - like looking at the monitor through an old Coke bottle. As I tried to open applications like the Creative Recorder, I found that the files I had loaded from the CD were corrupt. There were no downloads to fix any of the problems I encounted. I exchanged it at CompUSA for another one. I got the same green screeen on both my IMB and Dell laptops. The second installation CD had many of the same corrupt files.It's going back this afternoon and I'll start looking for a different product.Good luck if you buy one of these - and keep your receipts!

Slow
There were times when I found this movie to be agonizingly slow. I had to fast-forward the movie just to get it up to normal speed. I wouldn't have minded so much if the acting had been really compelling, but I just could never see Colin Firth as the character he was supposed to be playing (contrast that with how easily Sean Penn slipped into his character in Milk). At times I wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry. I certainly couldn't recommend this movie, unless you are really into gay romance flicks.

Great to Discuss But Even Better to Enjoy
It's very easy to start a hundred discussions about the content of this film. We can get into very deep subjects such as "Is this the real image of Americans?" or a more shallow but fun topic such as "Was Pam Anderson in on the joke". No matter how you slice it, the underlying fact for those with an open mind is that this is an unparalled FUNNY film. The fact that this one film can raise so many discussions ranging from political to Sasha Baron Cohen's ability to stay in character is great but what has to be noted above all else is that this film was created to make us laugh. So if you want to delve into all the questions this film raises, great but it's also wonderful to just sit back and enjoy this for what it is: a comedy that will make you laugh and one you will want to see over and over again.

replica pursuing Amy.
Amy Candler is the perfect person. She was made from many other people. She hasn't felt more alone than she does right now. She can't tell anyone her secret, not even her best friend.Throughout the book, Amy is trying to figure out who she really is. Until one day, her mother surprised her and she met the scientist that had genetically enhanced her: eye sight, ability to run, and lift things a lot heavier than any other normal 12 year old girl.In my opinion, the book was great because it doesn't just come out and say what the problem is, you kind of have to guess what is going on. I think it's more like a mystery book.The only thing that I didn't like was the way the author wrote the book. She wouldn't let you know it was another day until you were half way into the paragraph.I would recommend this book for young girls that are trying to find who they really are.

Not what we were looking for
If a short video clip had been available to view, we never would have bought this item. Despite the new looking cover with a picture of a little girl on it, the video looks to have been made in the early 80's and features only adults who are already expert gymnasts. The teaching is definitely geared toward adults/teenagers who have already mastered the fundamentals of gynmastics and are very flexible. The outfits worn by the two female gymnasts who demonstrate all the moves were also immodest enough that we decided we couldn't show the video to our kids. On the positive side, the teacher does a good job explaining the mechanics of the tumbling moves and pointing out possible mistakes that can be made. We decided to return the item.

excellent quality for the price
This quilt is pretty much what I expected at amazon's price. Though probably not worth full price, the value here is good. It's very soft and though I haven't slept under it yet feels just like any down comforter would. It smells good and is packaged well. My only complaints about it are that it is slightly shorter than the Pottery Barn duvet cover which I put it in and it has no loops at the corners with which to tie the corners of the duvet cover. I simply tied the ties around the corner of the comforter and this worked OK though I wonder if they would come loose if this was slept under often (I'm simply using it in the guest bedroom which is low traffic). Overall it's pretty good, though if I could afford it I'd probably spring for the higher end real-down comforters from Pottery Barn.

Great game for us!
My husband loves scrabble. He's always won. When we bought our first house, I bought a small cheap set to "get us started". This past Christmas, he saw the add for the Diamond edition. Researched it, and didn't like the fact that it folded and didn't snap shut. Then I saw this one. Loved it! I love how clean and simple it is. So I bought it, and had to wait to play. Once we did play, it was great. I love the fact that the tiles stay in place (everything is nice and lined up!!), and it turns so nicely. I also love the score keeper. We always used a legal pad. Now we can keep things on permanent record! And the timer is always a nice threat when someone is taking too long. The tiles are a really nice black wood and silver writing(not plastic like I've seen noted). Our only problem is that it is a pretty big box, and had to make a little room to store it.

Disappointment
I agree with the other reviews. This so-called "Unrated" DVD is certainly not. It has been edited so heavily, it could almost have just a PG-13 rating. And the editing was so obvious. If you could find the original unedited version it would be worth it. Athena Massey is very nice to look at. But this heavily edited version just leaves you disappointed.

Great investment for garage surfaces.
An Amazon 5-star review in this section by D. Harris "Mad scientist," June 20, 2011 - said it all.In addition, after the surface is etched. I had to allow one week for the surface to dry completely while circulating a floor fan during the 75+ degree with sunny weather. When I apply the Epoxy Paint.. I had to do so quickly - where fresh paint over the edge of paint will apply smoothly.By following D.Harris' review; the appearance is as special for occasions in using your tidy garage as a 2nd living room.

Nothing to get excited about
In college we all sit around late, drinking, and complaining. This volume shows that chefs do that too. I found very few secrets or even good ideas. But I did find a lot of chefs crying about being misunderstood by the public and the reviewers. I guess speaking with the authors was cheaper than getting a therapist. But the authors' style is consistent. Still that uncritical idol worship.

Piece O' Crap
This product replacement plan has been a HUGE headache: when my daughter's MP3 player stopped working THE DAY AFTER CHRISTMAS, we called right away to find out how to get the replacement. After ages on hold--and I am a very patient woman, so I do mean AGES--we were told to take our contract to Best Buy for a replacement. Little did we know that the three Best Buy stores in our immediate area would have no record of any such agreement. When we called back--and stayed on hold again for ages--we found out that there, indeed, is no such contract. Instead, we have to go through a lengthy process via snail mail to get a replacement. Yep--you guessed it. This contract is useless. Do not waste your money.

Better than I remembered
This DVD is a great print, and so much more enjoyable than other versions. Sure, the film has flaws, but Ralph Meeker is an impressive Mike Hammer. Tough, yet easily friendly - notice his genuine friendship with Nick, the garage owner, and the lovely Velda. Notice the look of genuine glee when he is the tough as nails PI when he puts the blackmailing coroner's hand in a drawer, and positively enjoys slamming it over and over. Greedy, with an understandable self interest, this time, the PI bites off more than he can chew.

Clueless
Susan is a very interesting person to watch on TV. Like a moth to a flame I am attracted to her when she pontificates on the small screen. While I often (ok, almost always) disagree with her, she makes the most mundane lie she makes sound almost plausible. (That is until you fact-check her.) I look forward to many more years of seeing good old Sue on the air if for no other reason than to reassure me that I have made the right decision to be a Republican.That said, Sue (may I call you Sue? No? Too bad.) ought to confine her observations and critiques to the airwaves. He sophomoric attempt to "rebut" (if that was her intention) "Godless" became a muck-fest. Anyone who has that much bile and hatred for another person really ought to be concerned that Ann does not have a restraining order preferred against Sue.But, the book did have one saving grace.It proved all along all that Ann is right about all she says about liberals.

Good Read
I haven't read that many earlier Julie Garwood novels, so I have no opinion on whether this novel is better or worse than some of her historical ones. I think this book is as good as Mercy, one of her newer romantic suspense ventures, and I thoroughly enjoyed her excellent characterizations and plot line. This is an interesting and skillfully told story, with an intriguing premise.Personally, I found the book to be very satisfying. Be forewarned, though, that the mystery/suspense angle of the story is stronger than the romantic part, and that may disappoint some readers.

A Bizarre, Disturbing Movie Experience
Sorry,but I do not see what would make this movie 5 stars. It was creepy, and the whole time I thought, "Should I be laughing or taking this seriously?" It was just too weird and unbelievable. The thought of Norma Desmond and Joe Gillis actually having a relationship is difficult and even painful to think about. Thankfully this film was made in a time where the romantic interludes were kindly left to the viewers imagination. I forced myself to imagine that there actually was nothing physical between them; that way I could get through the movie.I guess I don't deal well with such dark films. The only thing I liked about it was Gillis' narration. Overall, I felt both the lead characters too strange to relate too or to understand. I cannot recommend watching this film, except to watch it as an example of Hollywood at its extreme weirdest.

Eh
Having read several of these Savage books, I found this one to be lackluster. The four I have already read follow pretty much the same formula - Indian kidnaps white girl, white girl fights at first but then surrenders and falls in love with him, some people (Indians and whites) disapprove of the union but in the end everyone lives happily ever after.Edwards does a nice job of describing colonial or Indian life, so thumbs up for research. Generally, Edwards does a decent job with the lovemaking scenes, but her phrase of 'love cave' to describe a woman's lady parts just made me laugh out loud (it's used a couple of times in this book) Also, she abuses ellipses and uses them way too often, so some... sentences have... like, three... or four... ellipses... and it's really... really annoying...If not for the repetitive storyline and the abuse of ellipses, I'd have given this book a higher rating.

1200 pages for the topics covered
The authors of this book must get paid by the word. They will write 50 words where only 10 are required(I have other Wrox Books with the same problem). The breadth of coverage is good, but its unusable due to the amount of reading it takes to get the information. If this book were 500 pages with the same coverage it would be a 4.5 star book.

WOW
I've been a Doctor Who fan for 20 years and LOVE the new series, but I was a bit skeptical about Torchwood - Until I watched it!WOW - Men in Black on ACID!!John Barrowman is fantastic! Not to mention gorgeous!!!The rest of the cast are new to me but I am growing to like them.Okay, a few of the scripts aren't always fantastic, but the cast works great together.

Even better than the first but the third was my favorite!
Kresley Cole's MacCarrick Brothers trilogy (of which this is the second, the books being If You Dare, If You Desire and If You Deceive) are my favorite highlander romances. She is simply a great romance author. This second book is Hugh and Jane's story and it's a good one. Unrequited love and seething passion set amidst 19th century England and Scotland. I love the way she has woven the family curse around the family's history and the historical setting. You can almost see the highland mountains as they travel north. You won't be disappointed and while I liked this second even better than the first, the third is my overall favorite as I fell in love with Ethan.

Never understood the attraction
I had the "pleasure" of hearing Ms. Mason speak prior to the filming of the movie In Country. She was far too reserved to be an engaging speaker, but the fact that a major motion picture was coming out and that the book was selected for reading at our local high school made me seek it out. What a disappointment. :P

THis book reveals the struggle for those unable to express their emotions by any other method. It gives great insight as to how to be supprotive and helpful without judging.

Arrogance unleased...
This man is perhaps the most arrogant individual I have seen in quite sometime. Took the time he should have spent being thankful for recieving an an Academy Award (wrongly bestowed uopn him for this piece of left-wing [junk]) to bash the president on national television! Wrong time, wrong place to excersize the right of free speech protected by the military that he so ashmedly wronged by bashing their commander and chief. Shame on him. "Bowling for Columbine" is another example of wrong-mindeness passing for art and individuals profiting by it. Profiting, that is, if you buy it.

Piece of Crap
I'm not exactly sure how this thing has gotten such high praises, but it's nothing short of worthless. It's highly unstable, unless it's attached to the wall, at which point, I question why I would buy this unit, when I could just buy a wall mount, which takes up less space.I put my bike on it and it toppled over and we're not talking about a 100lbs huffy, we're talking about a 20lbs carbon bike!I don't recommend buying this! There are better solutions out there.

one of the top 10 best cds of 2005
take gothenburg melodies, sick breakdowns, relentless and extremely well sounding drums, great vocals, and you get one of the best releases of 2005. this cd is non stop from beginning to end. from the opening fast part of Your Little Suburbia Is In Ruins, to the cymbol fadeout of The Seventh Trumpet, you get a 100% great record. if you've been looking for a gothenburg style cd with great breakdowns, buy this. i'm so glad Solid State picked these guys up. i could care less if it is a christian label or not. buy this cd as soon as you can

12-/volt cordless modification for motorcycle travel
If your looking for a motorcycle pump for travel, this is a good one. Strip it all apart. Remove the plastic casing and trash it, pull out the guts, tape the start button to the motor, add alligator clips to end of wires, and you have a compact motorcycle travel pump just in case of a flat.

Elevator Music
I'm really surprised at the number of great reviews appearing here for this CD. I am a huge Moody Blues fan, and I own all of their albums, and I had high hopes after the abysmal "Keys of the Kingdom" CD. I keep listening to Strange Times hoping I like it better with continued listening, but I don't. I can barely get through most of John Lodges elevator music, and there isn't really a standout song on the whole CD. I really think these great reviews are a result of lowered expectations. After "Keys" I agree that "Strange Times" is better...but not by much. Where is Mike Pinder when you need him?

Horrid!!!
I really liked Depeche Mode. I bought almost all of their albums (give or take a couple) and have a few of their singles. One thing I admired about them was David Gahan's sublime voice. Here was finally a rock star who could sing on key and who had a generous vocal range. Songs like "Enjoy the Silence", "Strangelove", and "Here is the House" show a tremendous vocal talent, and the live 101 album showed how great Dave sounded live, whereas most other rock stars would likely sing in monotone. However, Dave's singing on this DVD is absolutely horrid. He is most of the time OFF KEY and he strains the vocals too much, even on delicate songs like "Waiting for the Night". I can't even listen to an entire song on this DVD in its entirety. It's really that bad. I say this sadly, as I was hoping for a great live performance as in 101. I guess the years have finally taken their toll on David, unfortuneatly...

NO HAND CRAMPS
THE GRIPS WORK GREAT FOR ADULT HANDS. BEFORE I BOUGHT THE GRIPS, I COULDN'T PLAY VERY LONG, BUT NOW I WEAR OUT THE BATTERY BEFORE MY HANDS. THE ONLY DOWNFALL WOULD BE THAT NOW I CAN'T USE THE CASE FOR MY PSP UNLESS I TAKE OFF THE GRIPS.

Great collection of songs.
In my search for instrumental music I borrowed this from the library and loved it! I just had to buy it. My kids and I do puzzles or build with legos to this music.

Good music, awful sound
One of the benefits of CD is that the background pops and hiss of vinal can be eliminated. However, nobody bothered to do that before releasing this CD. On some cuts the background hiss is so bad it is difficult to hear the music.The music is great, the sound quality is awful. Spend your money elsewhere.

Ratt;er One-Seven
Of all the books I have read about Vietnam this has to be rated at the bottom of the list. Obviously written by an amateur, the story was drab and uninteresting. He should have had some professional help in writing this book.

Do not buy
While the carafe is of excellent design and does not leak when coffee is poured the clock on the programmable maker does not work. I have bought 3 coffee makers in the last month and ALL three had/have defective clocks. All three have different manufactures date codes. By the time you pay for shipping going and coming under the warranty it becomes a very expensive coffee maker--and the clock still does not work!!

I was worried it would be too big, but find it is the perfect size for keeping a set of tools in my truck. The front compartment is great for keeping everything organized.

Stay away from Version 8.0!!
All of the positive reviews here must be from a previous version of Roxio's Easy Media Creator -- Version 7.5 or below. I was very satisfied with the two previous versions. However, I made the mistake of upgrading to Version 8.0, and I have had nothing but trouble. It would take too long to explain all of it.I can't understand how a company that had a good product could have turned it into a disaster. Nothing works, and they have had no updates to the software since it came out. I can't believe that -- as it absolutely does not work. To make matters worse, they don't service or support the product. The only way to get help is to go to the discussion groups on their website, where you can read about all the problems everyone else is having and how they are trying to solve them.Bottom line: Stay away from Roxio's Easy Media Creator. Something has gone very wrong with the company and their product.
