0	Everybody is right.............What is all the fuss about	This sounds just like Dave Matthews, becuase in fact drum rolllllllll. Every single thing he does sounds the same. GASP! I know some frat boy wants to kick my ass right now, and his preppy little girlfriend is crying while watching her new boxset of Friends she got for Christmas, and I am trully sorry for that.I am kidding ofcourse I am not sorry in the least. Having heard every release by this crappy band, usually through a friend or two who pretend to like them becuase it's "cool" I noticed one thing that they have finally run their course and hopefully will give up. Seriously give me any example of how this sounds any different from any of their other releases. The tempo and the intstruments might change but the horrible Matthews sound is still front and center in everything they do! These guys allways have and always will SUCK!	negative
0	Antiquated arguments ragarding Gen ch1	I'm really tired of hearing the same rebuttals to young earth arguments regarding GEN ch.1 - arguments that clearly show the faulty understanding and usage of hermeneutical principles by Don Stoner and Hugh Ross. This book was out of date when it was written. Ross and Stoner ought to spend more time studying hermeneutics (the science of interpretation) and less time throwing around arguments that they have not spent adequate time refining.	negative
1	VERY NICKELBACK	Very Nickelback! That's how I would describe this album.I enjoyed the bonus DVD - some music videos and behind the scenes footage :)	positive
1	Goetterdaemerung for a Great Biographer	I was initially angry at the prospect of reading this little work -- written in Manchester's seventieth year -- rather than a third and concluding volume of his monumental Churchill biography. Alas, the word is now out that there will be no third volume -- that the author lacks the will or capacity to carry on.Manchester -- together with Catherine Drinker Bowen -- is clearly the great biographer of the century. His passing from active work is a deep personal blow to one who has savored his work for more than thirty years.This ersatz volume I found to my delight to be highly engaging and insightful into the Age of Gutenberg and Michaelangelo, of DaVinci and Tyndale. This book is in the best tradition of Will Durant -- a great writer who doesn't plow new ground but places the mountain of existing literature into a context and framework.	positive
1	I ordered....I received!	It was very easy access to order this product from Amazon. I ordered and received the product in record time and I am very appreciative of the fine service.	positive
0	It needed better editing and cohesion as a series	The book isn't especially good, it's mediocre fantasy at best.It looks as if the book (if not the whole series) was thrown together hastily to meet a deadline.In the first book there was a Viking, Owen, and an Irishman, Fionn. At the end of the first book Owen died fighting the crusaders.. but in the second book there was Owen again, alive and well (until he blew himself and the bridge up later on)Maybe they'll fix a name up somewhere in successive printings, but in any case i've never seen a technical error like that in a book before... very bad form.	negative
0	So what was this book supposed to be about?	This book definitely did not meet my expectations. If there was any humor intended (as the jacket suggested), it was completely missed on me. What I did hear was: whining about the forest service, whining about fat people, whining about Southerners, whining about people who talk a lot, etc. Just count the number of times Mr. Bryson said something nice about someone he mentioned in the book. Go ahead... You're right. If you are not just like him (with that snappy British accent), you are pond scum. When I read a book about the AT I expect to hear about the natural beauty, the adventures, the grueling hike...NOT about how stupid everyone else is and how the author disagrees with every decision the government has made since 1930. A waste of money in my view.	negative
1	Orando con gozo, no por obligación	Este libro es muy ameno. Te llama a la oración que nace, no de un sentido de deber, sino de amor y gratitud. No es otro manual sobre cómo cumplir con una obligación religiosa, sino un llamado a intimar con el Creador del universo. No te sentirás culpable de tener una vida de oración pobre, sino que te sentirás inspirado a profundizar más en tu relación con Dios. Y te ayuda a crecer en la Palabra también, pues su exégesis es sana.El Dr. Cornwall ha escrito más de 50 libros de gran relevancia para el cuerpo de Cristo. Te aseguro que disfrutarás éste.	positive
0	Oh man, what a waste of a good Godzilla title!!!	Godzilla's Revenge, what comes to mind when you think of that. I thought Godzilla becomes evil and devastates Tokyo while fighting monsters that idea is much better than the one in this movie. This is all in a boy's dream...what the heck? Now I enjoy Godzilla movies,I even liked Son of Godzilla but this movie is a disgrace. Why would Minilla be Barney and talk? What's with this bully nonsense? I wanted rubber monsters action, the only good point of this movie is Godzilla verses Gabara that's the only thing that gave this an extra star because everything else is stock footage.	negative
0	Postmodern gibberish	Len Sweet usually writes more with more passion and intelligence that he evidences in this book. Snipets of insight into an eclectic alphabetized list of topics result in a whole lot of next to nothing.BUT Sweet et al still have a few fascinating things to say -- just not many.	negative
0	My little ones found it disturbing	My 6 year old received this as a birthday gift. I thought: wow, great, very nostalgic. After reading it to her, she gave me a funny look and said "I didn't like that". While it does have some charming moments, she seemed to us to be a sad and lonely little girl. Her fantasy about her doll getting in an accident and gushing blood and being sawn in pieces was really too graphic for my children, even though they knew it was being made up. Just found it sort of depressing. Where are the parents?	negative
1	Gifted	I gave this and two other books to a card maker who really loved them. I personally am not a card maker, but as an artist and appreciating the creativity in this book, its a good one. Although it has good ideas in it and very thoroughly explains how to do them, I'm not sure that it would be one that I would keep as I feel like it did not have a lot of ideas, it would be more of the type I would want to flip through at the store and put back on the shelf instead of taking home to more art clutter ;).	positive
0	Don't bother	Do not bother with Stamps.com unless you do a lot of shipping at your office. They entice you with $45 in free postage and a free digital scale. You really only get $5 in free postage. You have to pay $9 shipping for the 'free scale' that only works if you subscribe to Stamps.com at $15.99/month (after your first free 30 days). They give you 4 coupons for $10 in postage which you can use during your first 4 months of a paid subscription, so your first 4 months will only cost $5.99/month.If you got sucked in like I did and got the scale, there is a free program available on the web to use the scale without the paid subscription. I can't post it here - just search for "stamps.com digital scale software" and you will find it.	negative
1	Must have	This has become my son's "security blanket." I have 6 of these to keep in different places and for extras. He loves it!	positive
0	This came across as a weak, self absorbed, and whiny effort.	This book is a lesson of what not to do and how not to behave. Ms. Drescher is either very naive, or self absorbed in her own celebrity. Yes, a Hysterectomy is a very serious operation which many women have gone through. However, she fails to even acknowledge how lucky she was compared to Cancer patients who withstand hundreds of hours of Chemotherapy and weeks upon weeks of consecutive daily radiation treatment and more. She was never her own advocate until towards the end. She was always blaming everyone else. She saw low level Doctors and allowed herself to bleed profusely for almost two years before she finally moved up to higher level physicians. Who in their right mind would behave like this? Oh, the horror off an MRI or a CAT scan ........ Give me a break. There are plenty of Cancer survivors who are true courageous heroes, but Ms. Drescher is not one of them.	negative
1	Works for any age	With a little modification, this is a great workout. I am a very fit 60 year old woman that works out every day. If you are in good health, even with minimum knee problems I could still handle the squats. (Again with slight modification) recommended to my younger and my fit older friends.	positive
0	Conversational Only	Don't expect to learn anything about the written language. There are also inconsistencies in the romanized spelling of certain terms. These are easy to identify, but annoying nonetheless.	negative
0	Does not work	Installed software on two different win 7 computers. Neither was able to recognize my V3 Razor. I followed all on screen directions explicitly. Tried it with and without update. Waste of my money but I liked the rugged Motorola cable. All I wanted was the pictures off.	negative
1	Book for school	Im not a huge fan of serious novels because the world is tragic enough. But this book met out needs for a school project.	positive
0	Egocentric & Greedy Author	I pity the employees of the manager who listens to a man like Brian Billick. Why anyone would respect someone who makes obscene gestures and utters lewd comments to football spectators in other stadiums is beyond me.It seems Billick also suffers from some amount of paranoia. He refused to give comments going into halftime (playing against the Titans) for fear that his comments would be broadcast on the Jumbotron. One would have to conclude that he lacks mental discipline and chooses to remain silent.Its obvious Billick is trying to squeeze as much money out of his moment of fame as possible.There are as many honorable and respectable coaches in professional sports as there are leadership books. Brian Billick is not one of those coaches. I would suggest you look elsewhere for leadership knowledge.	negative
1	I kept a box of tissue next to as I read this one	Joy and liberation is what I felt as I read this wonderful book. It's so rich, so powerful. I wish everyone who has ever dealt with family or friends on drugs would read this book. Get a revelation! Awesome. Stanice is so transparent in the book, you can sense the blood, sweat and tears poured into this wonderful work. Be ready to be real when you read this.Pam Perry, columnist, Ministry Marketing Solutions	positive
1	Great DVD	This is a great concert DVD. The picture quality and sound are fantastic. Not every song from the CD is on the DVD but there are plenty of Ryche classics to make it well worth picking up. If your a Ryche fan I would recommend this DVD for your collection.	positive
1	Great little trimmer	Great little trimmer only for the use for smaller lawns. It does not have the power for big ones. But very functional but I wish it had a hand holder lower on the machine for easier move ability.	positive
1	GREAT FOR EMERGENCIES	i bought a Freeplay solar/crank/flashlight AM/FM radio in Australia last year that eoulf also charge my Nokia 5800 phone in case of an emergency and electricity was disrupted. The problem was the radio came with the larger Nokia plug. This adapter allows me to charge my phone when no other power is available.	positive
0	Not 2ohm stable and not 1000 watts false advertisement	Why do these people have to lie to sell amplifiers , right when you open the box there is a paper on top says "Warning not 2 ohm stable" shows speaker hook up wrong way and right way I would not of even purchased it at all if I would of known that then there is the watt issue when are they going to regulate the specs on amplifiers like class D Drivers side is louder than passenger thought my indoor speakers came unhooked took door panel off and checked could hardly hear sound so I switched RCA's L with R passenger was louder then and like most amps there is no R & L balance on the amp They need to have a 0 (zero) star for products like this, trying to sell with no luck	negative
1	Loved Loved Loved this book!	Wow. This book is hilarious!Characters were believable. I felt as if they were people I knew.Storyline was intriguing. Loved the whole betting aspect of their relationship.I read it in one sitting because I couldn't force myself to put it down.Found myself laughing out loud and wearing a stupid grin for most of the book.What a fun read this was.It's one I would read again and again.	positive
0	Disappointing experience	Well, in the end I found this to be a disappointing product. Though all features worked, every couple of weeks I must reset the router to regain wireless service. I've tried using different channels, but it always drops eventually. I did not have this problem with my older netgear router (though it was only a 802.11b router). I've recently purchased a Netgear WGT624 to see if it stays up longer.I have not tried the recently updated firmware (late october release), but the release notes do not mention any updates concerning wireless connection reliability.	negative
0	Colorforms don't stick	This is so cute! Lots of colorforms but right away after starting to play with they stopped sticking and were abandoned for a different toy. Waste of money.	negative
0	Extract from �Books on Bosnia�, London 1999	A very theoretical study by a liberal intellectual. Rejects economic determinism and the idea that `the Balkans are different', but reduces everything to `ethnic strategies' and `power structures', and seems not to notice any difference between a peaceful `break-up' and a war of territorial conquest	negative
1	Long lasting	Very long lasting charge, it was at least two weeks before I had to plug in the charger again. I am very pleased with this razor. While nothing can get as close as a good blade, this does very well. Cleaning is not the easiest, but still jusst a few min. and you are don with that too. All in all..a very good deal	positive
0	konked out	my Melitta has been humming along for over a year and just stopped working...it got used a few times a week nad it would often get stopped up and now just won't due anything anymore. very dissappointed	negative
1	A PRODUCT FOR THOSE WITH LITTLE MONEY	I bought this product for my PM-8200 Sprint PCS cell phone and it works great. Almost better then the lead brand. It charges the phone full in 15 mins time. I think this is a great buy especially if you dont want to pay a lot on a car phone charger. Great product, I highly recommend this!Thanks for reading my review.	positive
0	Don't waste your time and money	After going and seeking this book out on the word of a friend. I noticed several things that bothered me within its pages. Being a martial arts instructor, I found marked similarities to other books written by much more established and well known "ninpo" not "nindo" practicioners. My own personal opinion is to save the time and money and look for much more complete books.	negative
1	It's hard for me to say much without spoilers, but I'll try	I just finished this book, literally minutes ago. My thoughts on it are still swimming around. Overall, I have to say it was really well-crafted. Parts of it were really tragic, which was the point. Most of the character arcs had endings I really didn't see coming, except for Felisin. I predicted where she was going to wind up in the end. She was incredibly difficult to read, although I can't say she was unrealistic. Her chapters were just so difficult to get through; they were so bleak. But hers, as I said, was the only story I was able to guess at. I found Icarium and Mappo rather poignant. Fiddler grew on me quite a bit. And Kalam surprised me most of all.There were a lot of things that happened here that seem they'll have ramifications in later books. I look forward to seeing what comes of this.	positive
0	Republican clap-trap	Extremely bias and hate mongering. I guess it didn't hurt the President. Mr Dinesh needs to sweep his own front door or move to a country where you can have a fiance and a wife at the same time.	negative
1	Outstanding	This is a fascinating story of adventure, faith, courage, & the determination of immigrant families - their fears, heartaches, strengths, and joys. Although it is fiction, it brings to mind what my own grandmother & her family must have experienced when coming to the United States from Europe. I have now read all the books in the Red River of the North series; the characters became my family & friends. Ms. Snelling tells a story that is filled with surprises. I highly recommend this series.	positive
0	WOW.	Has broadway really stooped so low?? How can this trash even be shown in the same theatre as the infamous Phantom of the Opera? What a disgrace! Shame on broadway. Get this show off broadway as soon as possible, please! And for those of you who actually bought a ticket to this garbage for a couple good laughs comparable to those of Austin Powers, shame on you too! But it's not too late..DON'T purchase this disgusting CD! Go see Les Miserables instead. Now that is some real broadway.	negative
1	Rosewood - as it really was	this is a very good accounting of what happened in this racist town. As appalling as it is, it really shows America at one of it's worst moments in history. The only reason it is not happening today is because Black Americans can now defend themselves from this kind of behavior.	positive
1	Three Cheers for the Polymath Peabody!	Elizabeth Peters is a raconteur of the finest order. She has a gift for crafting outrageous, hyperbolic characters who speak in sesquipedalian sentences and still remain believable. If that sounds impossible, you haven't read the Amelia Peabody mysteries yet!"The Deeds of the Disturber" is my favourite Peabody novel so far. It is a crazy, sinuous pursuit that shows all of the classic Peabody spirit and wit. The startling character of Ramses is developed more, and the plot is rife with twists and hints and portents.Only don't make the mistake of reading any of the last three Peabody novels (Ape who Guards the Balance, Falcon at the Portal, He Shall Thunder in the Sky) before you read this one. I did, and I think you will enjoy the last three more if you read this one first.	positive
0	a bad film that perpetuates stereotypes	I really hate to give any more publicity to an incredibly offensive movie, but on netflix I saw Chicago Boricua because I thought it would be interesting to see something about Puerto Ricans for a change. After enduring 15 minutes, I had to turn it off because I thought it did nothing more than just perpetuated stereotypes. I grew up in Chicago and have Puerto Ricans friends, so I know they are better than that. For people who will believe what they see in film, I hope they never see this film.	negative
1	Wonderful service	To start off, I was very pleased with the price of this product. It was very reasonable considering that I had paid much more when buying from the actual vendor. The shipping was just as excellent. I was told it would take more than a week to receive my order, but it came the very next day (although I do live quite close to where they were shipping from). All in all, I am very pleased with this seller. Perfect service.	positive
1	Pre-School Subraction.	My grand-neice LOVES IT; I think it's a GREAST teaching tool, easy words, easy explanation of all.To Me A+A+.	positive
0	What happened?	This album changed my life. It made me realise that Manson is a POP band. I was a big fan of the previous 2 albums (Anti-christ + Mechanical Animals) but I'm sorry, I really don't get this...I know Manson's music has never really been about technical proficiency, but this is one of the blandest, most re-hashed so-called metal albums I've ever heard. There is nothing remotely original on offer here - especially when compared to previous albums. Also a lot of the grit and bite has been taken out and what you're left with is a safe, radio-friendly album that is frankly more pop than it is metal/alternative decent music. A real disppointment.Although if you're a misunderstood teen then I'm sure you'll love this.Living proof that style sells over substance.... And what a shame that is	negative
1	Love seeing Christ through Max Luccado's eyes!	This Bible was in perfect shape. It is so easy to read and I love the devotions for almost every chapter!	positive
1	Awesome CD	I remember working with Lisa back in '98 as she was dedicated to her music. Hearing this CD after all these years brought back good memories. This CD is awesome - especially track 2 " I would walk through fire ". I wish her the best in all she does.	positive
1	I couldn't put it down--What does the heroine encounter next	Onward Peregrinos is right on target as an example of an endearing tale, brought out beautifully in the contrasting love story of mother and daughter, within the context of two cultures. The author also shows a valid knowledge of the Isthmus of Panama, an emerging country in the world today. The writer wittingly demonstrates a stable and total respect for values and ethics, yet blazes with realism and emotion. Wisdom and humor, found in the English and Spanish proverbs throughout this epic, give timely rules of life so often missing in our times.	positive
1	It was a nice escape	If you are looking for a movie that could happen - this is not for you. If you like SYFY and you need a fun escape you might like this one. Turn off your brain and enjoy.	positive
0	DUMB!	I really did not like this movie at all. It portrays a 7-year-old kid who gets adapted by a nice family and the kid happens to be evil. Why is this movie rated PG? Shouldn't it be R at least. I remember when I first saw this movie in the theater along time ago with my mom and she thought it was horrible. This isn't a kids movie. I thought this movie was like The Good Son except in Problem Child right after when the kid gets adapted he's evil and in The Good Son the kid isn't evil he's a good guy. The character that plays Macaulay Culkin in The Good Son is evil. Well, anyways if you hadn't seen this movie do not rent it or buy it. It's the worst movie ever made. Even the second and third one is bad! The only thing that's funny in this movie is Michael Richars from Seinfeld being in it. The rest of it is stupid.	negative
1	A darker story	I have been eagerly following the adventures of Catherine and Edgar. This book takes them to Scotland, where Edgar has been summoned to avenge the death of his two older brothers. This is a more complex story than the others, with lots of clerical and political wrangling. And yes, I did find the ending a little weak. But the characterizations, and the surprise ending compensate a bit, I think.Catherine and Edgar both continue to change and to mature as they struggle to meet the challenges life presents them. No, this story isn't as humorous as the first one, for example, but it allows us another glimpse into the relationships between the main characters, and also into life in 12th century Scotland.	positive
0	Stay away	A lot of the books on the bookshelves don't belong there-- some belong in your homes others the trash. This one is really bad. Larry Williams is a direct marketer not a trader. If you want to learn how to trade read Market Wizards, or Trade Your way to Financial Freedom, or how I made two million in the stock market-by Krubel which tells how he first lost money very badly and learned from his mistakes. Larry is a gambler, not a trader. DON'T BUY THIS BOOK	negative
1	Good read	Bought this for my history class. Great book with so much historical information to keep a class going for years! I wish the book could of had better pictures in color. Fast shipping! Gotta love Amazon Prime!	positive
0	sadly unbelieveable	I agree with all of the previous reviewers. I almost put the book in the trash however when one of the characters who had earlier died and his body never found was somehow now buried in the family plot. Not very well written. I hope the author is a better doctor. I think she should use her pen to write prescriptions.	negative
1	Great	This product may be old school, but really effective. All gophers gone in three days. Make sure you tie the end to a stake to make sure it doesn't go down the hole. Wear gloves to prevent the odor of your hands on the trap. Good hunting!	positive
1	best ever	I never should of wasted my money on other garlic presses.I ended up throwing them in the trash.This worked effortlessly, did not even have to peel the garlic.	positive
1	Love it	This product is much better than the traditional bacon microwave tray. It is so much easier to clean - that in itself is enough reason to buy this. It also does a much better job of helping the bacon shed grease. When you remove the bacon, it's almost grease free.	positive
0	Fizzless soda pop	Mandy Moore's CD lacks the soda pop quality that Britney Spears and Christina A. Mandy's "Candy" is fun to listen to but her range is limited and her voice quality is that of a karaoke stylest. She lacks the luster and pizzaz that Britney and Christina have. "Candy" is the only song on this album that makes you want to tap a foot and could possible keep up awake. This CD is one that you can pass up. Save your money and save our ears!	negative
1	GREAT PITCHERS!	I bought these after graduating high school. I use them in my apartment. They are very handy and attractive. They are really easy to take care of and they hold up. They are breakable though so you have to be really careful. They also leak if you don't close the lid properly. Other than that they are great for holding liquids (tea, soda, etc.) They don't hold that much liquid in them so it's not good for a large family. I am single so they're perfect for me. They are very stylish and I'd recommend them to anyone!	positive
1	Good but not great	This is a very good Dover art book to show the early drawings of the Masters. All the drawings include landscapes. I bought this book to learn how the old Masters did landscapes. It was somewhat of a disappointment because the drawings are very dark and small and the details are hard to make out. Dover should use bigger paper to show landscapes. A lot is lost by the 8.5 by 11 inch paper used.	positive
1	descent wires, nothing special...so far	i got to install this set yesterday to replace the aged regular ngk set i have on my 96 civic hatch. they are a bit longer than the OEM specs but not so much to be a problem. installation is just normal... nothing special versus OEM..meaning its easy. after installation, we go to start up... engine started up ok. i didnt notice anything special..engine sound the same... cold idle speed pretty much the same. road test...was yet to be done... i installed this last night and im too lazy to go out for a spin...so maybe i will edit this later on. again... descent.. nothing special so far.Update:No problems with the car running on these wire set. Was able to drive it for nearly 2 weeks and close to 300mi, didn't encounter any problem.For the price, these are good replacement for your worn out wire set.	positive
0	Worst math author ever.	This individual,Stan Gibilisco, continues to write book after book despite his inability to write a math book.The first book of his that I purchased, Technical Math, was so badly written that it was totally useless. I swore that I would never buy another book by this author.I evidently forgot his name until I purchased this book. However after starting the first chapter and not believing a math book could be so badly written, his name hit me.This time fortunately I was able to return the book.Evidently publishers do not read readers reviews. Or maybe they don't care because some poor sap, that is not familiar with the author, will purchase his book. If they did care, they wouldn't hire him for another book.Some of the subjects sound really interesing until you see who the auther is and then you know to forget it....	negative
0	Not sized as advertised	This product says it's for 19-20" monitor - the details even suggest 19-21 but the visible area only measures 19" so if you have a larger monitor, you will not be able to see critical tools and information on the right or left of the monitor.	negative
0	Really bad!	I bought this for about 5 bucks when he toured with Face To Face. This is not a good cd at all. There is only one good song. Anyways, His new cd "the places you have come to fear the most" is really good.	negative
0	Cheaply built. Wall hanger only...	I bought this thinking I could use it to teach my granddaughter how to play guitar. It's a toy only, incapable of being tuned. I affixed it to the wall in my recording studio and it suits that purpose nicely. Then I bought a playable guitar at, of course, a much higher cost.	negative
1	Songs for spiritual healing!	Very good music and songs written and performed for the healing of hearts. I love [Listen, Listen, Listen] & [Return Again] very much, and often used them during the opening and closing of spiritual group gatherings. People listen to the songs in such an atmosphere and concentration often get in touch with the bottom of the heart and tears coming up because they are really [moved].	positive
0	Hysterically overbearing	Oh, so now we get it, Simon Cowell: your idea of great singing is not one, not two, not even three, but FOUR bombastic, classically trained vocalists, blasting out intimate love songs to Kingdom Come...in unison!!! Laughably awful.Warning: side-effects of listening to "Il Divo" may include sugar diabetes and punctured eardrums.	negative
0	Stay away...far, far away!!!	I don't like to beat a dead horse here, but I believe Mr. Jordan has beaten me to the punch! He lost me completely in book one of the series (Eye of the World). On the suggestion of a friend, I gave the book a sincere try. But after 400 pages of sheer torture, I just had to put it down. Am I ever glad I did! Not only is his concept trite, Mr. Jordan simply has little talent for writing or arousing the interest of earnest Fantasy readers...unless cheap comic books are your thing.I come from the world of J.R.R. Tolkien, Stephen R. Donaldson, Frank Herbert...to name a few. These are authors who created actual worlds in which you could live and breathe, and who wove a rich tapestry of believable characters and events. Mr. Jordan's work can't hold a candle to these masterpieces. This is bubble-gum kiddie-kitsch at its best. Save your hard-earned money and valuable time, folks and...STAY AWAY!!	negative
1	Sittin' In Again	Great concert in a relaxed atmosphere. Good to see them together after all the years. Man they had the talent.	positive
1	addicting party game	when your playing this game on your own it can get kind of boring but when played with 2 or more, its really fun. its almost like the mario party games which are also fun. the bobble-headed characters look funny too. its a good game if your looking for fun, not a plot or strategy game you have to save. its fun.	positive
0	A good effort	Despite the effort made and the flashy book cover, this book really was weak. It's just an over-hyped collection of possible correlations that aren't proven enough to be acceptable as correlations for the average reader.I didn't like it. It was disjointed, vague, and in some parts it was just ridiculous word vomit.I don't understand why this book is on the bestseller list or what people get from it. It just made me mad because all it is is a series of ramblings and over-the-top observations.	negative
1	The best!	Voyager definately one of the best sci-fi series ever. Completed the colledtion with this one.	positive
1	Too W I L D to DIE..!	I think the best to describe GIA the model was as said "TOO BEAUTIFUL TO DIE... AND TOO WILD TO LIVE"This movie is E R O T I C with a good story too. And for Angelina Jolie fans, this is a MUST see movie!	positive
0	Mine never worked correctly	I bought one of these and was very disappointed. Every time I used it, the light would flicker off and on. I had to keep adjusting the bulb with my hand to get it steady out, and then it would do it again.	negative
0	So deep	If you're a totally hip liberal pseudo-intellectual and like reading about interspecies relationships between human beings and giant red anthropoid bug-things then this is the right book for you!	negative
0	Senseless and Unenjoyable	I agree with the reveiwer who branded Pale Fire as brillinat but empty. I found no humour in it whatsoever, just an artist trying to make sport of his readers.	negative
1	Expensive but worth it	I bought this to clean up electrical connections on my 88 Mercedes. Did the job quite well and seemed to make it run better which was an awesome bonus. My only gripe is the price but I guess it just goes to prove you gotta pay for the good stuff.	positive
0	Too complicated	I ordered this book over the holidays for a friend with three little ones thinking it would be a fun activity for them. When I received it I looked through it and thought my goodness how can anyone figure out how these are suppose to sound. I found it would take a few hours to figure it out and so knowing my friend is a busy Mom as it is would not appreciate receiving something of this nature. The print is very small and I think it would be better in a spiral binding, larger print and a CD along with it to give an example of how the clap is suppose to sound. I have a masters in music and if I found this confusing, good luck for everyone else.	negative
0	returned it	I purchased this product for my dad, who was injured and unable to play at the computer. I looked at several options and thought I picked the best option, others complained about backlight, and losing the pegs so I thought I had made a good choice. The game was horrible, the buttons un responsive, the programming ancient and slow. I returned it without ever giving it as a gift. I am pretty good at figuring out games etc, I was ready to throw it against a wall I can't imagine how my dad would have done with it!!!!Amazon was great in the return process the game was horrible	negative

1	The Best Male resource on depression I ever read	There are many resources about depression. Unfortunately, most, if not all, are geared toward women. This targets men as the subject of the book.

1	A Solid Book for Intermediate/Advanced ESL students	This solid book provides ESL students and community college members with a strong foundation in academic writing.Grounded in both classic techniques and modern readings, Blueprints 2 helps fill that awkward, and considerable, skills gap between what weak students know and what college courses require. An excellent resource for IEP summer programs - and low level community college composition courses.Although I currently teach another text, Introduction to Academic Writing for Graduate Students (Swales), I also know that many of my so-called "Intermediate ESL" graduate students would benefit a great deal from this fine text.By the way, the author Folse has made many contributions to the ESL field from his excellent Great Essays and Great Paragraphs to Clear Grammar 2 and Discussion Starters.	positive

1	Does the job for about an hour	Educational value, one of the ratings criteria, is irrelevant for this toy, so this should be disregarded. But, as this was one of the criteria, I had to rate it low. Overall, this is a very good toy, but it because of the size of the bottle it blows bubbles for only about an hour. I also had to wiggle the bottle when it was low to get the flow going again. I had reasonable expectations for this toy, so I'm happy with the product for the price.	positive
1	Stunning....	As a ballet dancer, I have come to find the not-so-glamorous side of the ballet world: eating disorders plague it (and directors encourage them), dancers having multiple relationships with other dancers, and the constant pressure to always be at the top. Gelsey Kirkland seemed to have a ballet career that was glorious and fulfilling, yet with every hit of cocaine she took to keep her dancing, her life gained more emptiness and she was dying. Her personal torment is so personally and vividly revealed in this autobiography that you can actually feel her pain and loneliness as she reiterates each of her harrowing experiences. It is sad that some of her best dramatic performances were given at the lowest points in her personal life. This is one of the most stunning autobiographies I have ever read.	positive
1	Fantastic product	Don't know how we ever lived without this. It's great for pancakes, eggs, hamburgers and just about anything you need to cook. We don't even use our stove anymore since getting this. It's easy to clean too. Highly recommend this product. It's great.	positive
1	Atmospherically Pleasing	I never had the opportunity to see Sleepy Hollow in theatres but heard great things from a number of my colleagues and friends. When the movie came out on DVD I took notice and rented it. Sufficit to say, I was not disappointed in any way. Burton's interpretation of the Headless Horseman myth was masterful and conveyed the perfect atmosphere for the story. Gory and gothic, there was always a sense of darkness and foreboding during the movie. For those of us who had only the merest passing affiliation with the original myth, much (if not all) of the story was surprising and suspenseful. Personally, though, I think the occasional use of comedy helped to keep the story from becoming too dark in tone, and I really enjoyed this movie. For anyone with an interest in suspense, drama, horror, or even fantasy (much of the movie had a fantasy feel to it), this movie is sure to delight.	positive
0	Go straight to Yoshiesque 2	I purchased "Yoshiesque 2" first and I enjoyed it so much, I regretfully purchased this cd without listening to a track. I really think this duo is extremely talented and they are superb at blending tracks seemlessly without interupting an infectious groove but the track selection is just awful on this set. I have tried repeatedly to "see the light" on this one and I have failed. I even listened to both cds back-to-back without any distractions and the verdict is in: Save your money and just buy the much more interesting, more musical, user-friendly Yoshiesque 2. The Renaissance discs are good also, though both discs seem to start quite well and finish in rather chaotic and disorganized fashion. I am sure many prefer it to the"esque" series altogether, but for me they just aren't as well-rounded or as easy to listen to.	negative
0	Rick "Kick Me Charlie" Steves	While I find that the Rick Steves books have interesting info, I can't get past his loser mind-set. It seems, to Mr. Steves, that we should respect and honor everyone else's culture except for our own. He makes a BIG point in explaining to us egotistical Americans that nobody wants to trade passports with us, so don't go thinking America is the greatest country there is. Let a Parisian bite your head off about the Bush administration - suck it up, Bud! Sure, Mr. Brit, kick me in the pants because you've met some loud and rude Americans - heck! I deserve it! I'm an (sotto voice) American. I don't know why he doesn't move to Europe and stay there.	negative

1	Excellent resource for those doing historical criminology research.	This book is a collection of period documents relating to piracy and its effects.

1	Astounding	Charlotte really has an amazing voice. Hopefully, she will be able to cultivate it. My faves included Amazing Grace, The Flower Duet and All Love Can Be. I think that the duet with Josh Groban, titled The Prayer should not have been sung because Groban's voice is so much stronger that Charlotte's that is makes her sound weak. But it is a beautiful song.I believe those buying this album will enjoy it. There are plenty of well known standards and Charlotte does a good job with all. I believe that she is not that far away from a 5-star album. I wonder what this album is a prelude to?????	positive

1	Made a little adjustment	After having my steam iron lie flat on the holder and, consequently lose all its water, I fiddled with the tabs in the opening to see if I could make the iron rest on a sharper angle.

My husband irons left-handed and I iron right-handed. I'd like to put it at the end, but he wants it mounted on the side. It's on the side (I don't want to discourage him from helping out in the laundry room)!	positive

Everybody is right.............What is all the fuss about

This sounds just like Dave Matthews, becuase in fact drum rolllllllll. Every single thing he does sounds the same. GASP! I know some frat boy wants to kick my ass right now, and his preppy little girlfriend is crying while watching her new boxset of Friends she got for Christmas, and I am trully sorry for that.I am kidding ofcourse I am not sorry in the least. Having heard every release by this crappy band, usually through a friend or two who pretend to like them becuase it's "cool" I noticed one thing that they have finally run their course and hopefully will give up. Seriously give me any example of how this sounds any different from any of their other releases. The tempo and the intstruments might change but the horrible Matthews sound is still front and center in everything they do! These guys allways have and always will SUCK!

Antiquated arguments ragarding Gen ch1

I'm really tired of hearing the same rebuttals to young earth arguments regarding GEN ch.1 - arguments that clearly show the faulty understanding and usage of hermeneutical principles by Don Stoner and Hugh Ross. This book was out of date when it was written. Ross and Stoner ought to spend more time studying hermeneutics (the science of interpretation) and less time throwing around arguments that they have not spent adequate time refining.

Goetterdaemerung for a Great Biographer

I was initially angry at the prospect of reading this little work -- written in Manchester's seventieth year -- rather than a third and concluding volume of his monumental Churchill biography. Alas, the word is now out that there will be no third volume -- that the author lacks the will or capacity to carry on.Manchester -- together with Catherine Drinker Bowen -- is clearly the great biographer of the century. His passing from active work is a deep personal blow to one who has savored his work for more than thirty years.This ersatz volume I found to my delight to be highly engaging and insightful into the Age of Gutenberg and Michaelangelo, of DaVinci and Tyndale. This book is in the best tradition of Will Durant -- a great writer who doesn't plow new ground but places the mountain of existing literature into a context and framework.

It needed better editing and cohesion as a series

The book isn't especially good, it's mediocre fantasy at best.It looks as if the book (if not the whole series) was thrown together hastily to meet a deadline.In the first book there was a Viking, Owen, and an Irishman, Fionn. At the end of the first book Owen died fighting the crusaders.. but in the second book there was Owen again, alive and well (until he blew himself and the bridge up later on)Maybe they'll fix a name up somewhere in successive printings, but in any case i've never seen a technical error like that in a book before... very bad form.

So what was this book supposed to be about?

This book definitely did not meet my expectations. If there was any humor intended (as the jacket suggested), it was completely missed on me. What I did hear was: whining about the forest service, whining about fat people, whining about Southerners, whining about people who talk a lot, etc. Just count the number of times Mr. Bryson said something nice about someone he mentioned in the book. Go ahead... You're right. If you are not just like him (with that snappy British accent), you are pond scum. When I read a book about the AT I expect to hear about the natural beauty, the adventures, the grueling hike...NOT about how stupid everyone else is and how the author disagrees with every decision the government has made since 1930. A waste of money in my view.

No es otro manual sobre cómo cumplir con una obligación religiosa, sino un llamado a intimar con el Creador del universo. No te sentirás culpable de tener una vida de oración pobre, sino que te sentirás inspirado a profundizar más en tu relación con Dios. Y te ayuda a crecer en la Palabra también, pues su exégesis es sana.El Dr. Cornwall ha escrito más de 50 libros de gran relevancia para el cuerpo de Cristo. Te aseguro que disfrutarás éste.

Oh man, what a waste of a good Godzilla title!!!

Godzilla's Revenge, what comes to mind when you think of that. I thought Godzilla becomes evil and devastates Tokyo while fighting monsters that idea is much better than the one in this movie. This is all in a boy's dream...what the heck? Now I enjoy Godzilla movies,I even liked Son of Godzilla but this movie is a disgrace. Why would Minilla be Barney and talk? What's with this bully nonsense? I wanted rubber monsters action, the only good point of this movie is Godzilla verses Gabara that's the only thing that gave this an extra star because everything else is stock footage.

My little ones found it disturbing

My 6 year old received this as a birthday gift. I thought: wow, great, very nostalgic. After reading it to her, she gave me a funny look and said "I didn't like that". While it does have some charming moments, she seemed to us to be a sad and lonely little girl. Her fantasy about her doll getting in an accident and gushing blood and being sawn in pieces was really too graphic for my children, even though they knew it was being made up. Just found it sort of depressing. Where are the parents?

Although it has good ideas in it and very thoroughly explains how to do them, I'm not sure that it would be one that I would keep as I feel like it did not have a lot of ideas, it would be more of the type I would want to flip through at the store and put back on the shelf instead of taking home to more art clutter ;).

Don't bother

Do not bother with Stamps.com unless you do a lot of shipping at your office. They entice you with $45 in free postage and a free digital scale. You really only get $5 in free postage. You have to pay $9 shipping for the 'free scale' that only works if you subscribe to Stamps.com at $15.99/month (after your first free 30 days). They give you 4 coupons for $10 in postage which you can use during your first 4 months of a paid subscription, so your first 4 months will only cost $5.99/month.If you got sucked in like I did and got the scale, there is a free program available on the web to use the scale without the paid subscription. I can't post it here - just search for "stamps.com digital scale software" and you will find it.

This came across as a weak, self absorbed, and whiny effort.

This book is a lesson of what not to do and how not to behave. Ms. Drescher is either very naive, or self absorbed in her own celebrity. Yes, a Hysterectomy is a very serious operation which many women have gone through. However, she fails to even acknowledge how lucky she was compared to Cancer patients who withstand hundreds of hours of Chemotherapy and weeks upon weeks of consecutive daily radiation treatment and more. She was never her own advocate until towards the end. She was always blaming everyone else. She saw low level Doctors and allowed herself to bleed profusely for almost two years before she finally moved up to higher level physicians. Who in their right mind would behave like this? Oh, the horror off an MRI or a CAT scan ........ Give me a break. There are plenty of Cancer survivors who are true courageous heroes, but Ms. Drescher is not one of them.

Egocentric & Greedy Author

I pity the employees of the manager who listens to a man like Brian Billick. Why anyone would respect someone who makes obscene gestures and utters lewd comments to football spectators in other stadiums is beyond me.It seems Billick also suffers from some amount of paranoia. He refused to give comments going into halftime (playing against the Titans) for fear that his comments would be broadcast on the Jumbotron. One would have to conclude that he lacks mental discipline and chooses to remain silent.Its obvious Billick is trying to squeeze as much money out of his moment of fame as possible.There are as many honorable and respectable coaches in professional sports as there are leadership books. Brian Billick is not one of those coaches. I would suggest you look elsewhere for leadership knowledge.

It's hard for me to say much without spoilers, but I'll try

I just finished this book, literally minutes ago. My thoughts on it are still swimming around. Overall, I have to say it was really well-crafted. Parts of it were really tragic, which was the point. Most of the character arcs had endings I really didn't see coming, except for Felisin. I predicted where she was going to wind up in the end. She was incredibly difficult to read, although I can't say she was unrealistic. Her chapters were just so difficult to get through; they were so bleak. But hers, as I said, was the only story I was able to guess at. I found Icarium and Mappo rather poignant. Fiddler grew on me quite a bit. And Kalam surprised me most of all.There were a lot of things that happened here that seem they'll have ramifications in later books. I look forward to seeing what comes of this.

Three Cheers for the Polymath Peabody!

Elizabeth Peters is a raconteur of the finest order. She has a gift for crafting outrageous, hyperbolic characters who speak in sesquipedalian sentences and still remain believable. If that sounds impossible, you haven't read the Amelia Peabody mysteries yet!"The Deeds of the Disturber" is my favourite Peabody novel so far. It is a crazy, sinuous pursuit that shows all of the classic Peabody spirit and wit. The startling character of Ramses is developed more, and the plot is rife with twists and hints and portents.Only don't make the mistake of reading any of the last three Peabody novels (Ape who Guards the Balance, Falcon at the Portal, He Shall Thunder in the Sky) before you read this one. I did, and I think you will enjoy the last three more if you read this one first.

a bad film that perpetuates stereotypes

I really hate to give any more publicity to an incredibly offensive movie, but on netflix I saw Chicago Boricua because I thought it would be interesting to see something about Puerto Ricans for a change. After enduring 15 minutes, I had to turn it off because I thought it did nothing more than just perpetuated stereotypes. I grew up in Chicago and have Puerto Ricans friends, so I know they are better than that. For people who will believe what they see in film, I hope they never see this film.

What happened?

This album changed my life. It made me realise that Manson is a POP band. I was a big fan of the previous 2 albums (Anti-christ + Mechanical Animals) but I'm sorry, I really don't get this...I know Manson's music has never really been about technical proficiency, but this is one of the blandest, most re-hashed so-called *metal* albums I've ever heard. There is nothing remotely original on offer here - especially when compared to previous albums. Also a lot of the grit and bite has been taken out and what you're left with is a safe, radio-friendly album that is frankly more pop than it is metal/alternative decent music. A real disppointment.Although if you're a *misunderstood* teen then I'm sure you'll love this.Living proof that style sells over substance.... And what a shame that is

I couldn't put it down--What does the heroine encounter next

Onward Peregrinos is right on target as an example of an endearing tale, brought out beautifully in the contrasting love story of mother and daughter, within the context of two cultures. The author also shows a valid knowledge of the Isthmus of Panama, an emerging country in the world today. The writer wittingly demonstrates a stable and total respect for values and ethics, yet blazes with realism and emotion. Wisdom and humor, found in the English and Spanish proverbs throughout this epic, give timely rules of life so often missing in our times.

DUMB!

I really did not like this movie at all. It portrays a 7-year-old kid who gets adapted by a nice family and the kid happens to be evil. Why is this movie rated PG? Shouldn't it be R at least. I remember when I first saw this movie in the theater along time ago with my mom and she thought it was horrible. This isn't a kids movie. I thought this movie was like The Good Son except in Problem Child right after when the kid gets adapted he's evil and in The Good Son the kid isn't evil he's a good guy. The character that plays Macaulay Culkin in The Good Son is evil. Well, anyways if you hadn't seen this movie do not rent it or buy it. It's the worst movie ever made. Even the second and third one is bad! The only thing that's funny in this movie is Michael Richars from Seinfeld being in it. The rest of it is stupid.

A darker story

I have been eagerly following the adventures of Catherine and Edgar. This book takes them to Scotland, where Edgar has been summoned to avenge the death of his two older brothers. This is a more complex story than the others, with lots of clerical and political wrangling. And yes, I did find the ending a little weak. But the characterizations, and the surprise ending compensate a bit, I think.Catherine and Edgar both continue to change and to mature as they struggle to meet the challenges life presents them. No, this story isn't as humorous as the first one, for example, but it allows us another glimpse into the relationships between the main characters, and also into life in 12th century Scotland.

Stay away

A lot of the books on the bookshelves don't belong there-- some belong in your homes others the trash. This one is really bad. Larry Williams is a direct marketer not a trader. If you want to learn how to trade read Market Wizards, or Trade Your way to Financial Freedom, or how I made two million in the stock market-by Krubel which tells how he first lost money very badly and learned from his mistakes. Larry is a gambler, not a trader. DON'T BUY THIS BOOK

sadly unbelieveable

I agree with all of the previous reviewers. I almost put the book in the trash however when one of the characters who had earlier died and his body never found was somehow now buried in the family plot. Not very well written. I hope the author is a better doctor. I think she should use her pen to write prescriptions.

Love it

This product is much better than the traditional bacon microwave tray. It is so much easier to clean - that in itself is enough reason to buy this. It also does a much better job of helping the bacon shed grease. When you remove the bacon, it's almost grease free.

Fizzless soda pop

Mandy Moore's CD lacks the soda pop quality that Britney Spears and Christina A. Mandy's "Candy" is fun to listen to but her range is limited and her voice quality is that of a karaoke stylest. She lacks the luster and pizzaz that Britney and Christina have. "Candy" is the only song on this album that makes you want to tap a foot and could possible keep up awake. This CD is one that you can pass up. Save your money and save our ears!

GREAT PITCHERS!

I bought these after graduating high school. I use them in my apartment. They are very handy and attractive. They are really easy to take care of and they hold up. They are breakable though so you have to be really careful. They also leak if you don't close the lid properly. Other than that they are great for holding liquids (tea, soda, etc.) They don't hold that much liquid in them so it's not good for a large family. I am single so they're perfect for me. They are very stylish and I'd recommend them to anyone!

Good but not great

This is a very good Dover art book to show the early drawings of the Masters. All the drawings include landscapes. I bought this book to learn how the old Masters did landscapes. It was somewhat of a disappointment because the drawings are very dark and small and the details are hard to make out. Dover should use bigger paper to show landscapes. A lot is lost by the 8.5 by 11 inch paper used.

descent wires, nothing special...so far

i got to install this set yesterday to replace the aged regular ngk set i have on my 96 civic hatch. they are a bit longer than the OEM specs but not so much to be a problem. installation is just normal... nothing special versus OEM..meaning its easy. after installation, we go to start up... engine started up ok. i didnt notice anything special..engine sound the same... cold idle speed pretty much the same. road test...was yet to be done... i installed this last night and im too lazy to go out for a spin...so maybe i will edit this later on. again... descent.. nothing special so far.Update:No problems with the car running on these wire set. Was able to drive it for nearly 2 weeks and close to 300mi, didn't encounter any problem.For the price, these are good replacement for your worn out wire set.

Worst math author ever.

This individual,Stan Gibilisco, continues to write book after book despite his inability to write a math book.The first book of his that I purchased, Technical Math, was so badly written that it was totally useless. I swore that I would never buy another book by this author.I evidently forgot his name until I purchased this book. However after starting the first chapter and not believing a math book could be so badly written, his name hit me.This time fortunately I was able to return the book.Evidently publishers do not read readers reviews. Or maybe they don't care because some poor sap, that is not familiar with the author, will purchase his book. If they did care, they wouldn't hire him for another book.Some of the subjects sound really interesing until you see who the auther is and then you know to forget it....

Not sized as advertised

This product says it's for 19-20" monitor - the details even suggest 19-21 but the visible area only measures 19" so if you have a larger monitor, you will not be able to see critical tools and information on the right or left of the monitor.

Cheaply built. Wall hanger only...

I bought this thinking I could use it to teach my granddaughter how to play guitar. It's a toy only, incapable of being tuned. I affixed it to the wall in my recording studio and it suits that purpose nicely. Then I bought a playable guitar at, of course, a much higher cost.

Songs for spiritual healing!

Very good music and songs written and performed for the healing of hearts. I love [Listen, Listen, Listen] & [Return Again] very much, and often used them during the opening and closing of spiritual group gatherings. People listen to the songs in such an atmosphere and concentration often get in touch with the bottom of the heart and tears coming up because they are really [moved].

Stay away...far, far away!!!

I don't like to beat a dead horse here, but I believe Mr. Jordan has beaten me to the punch! He lost me completely in book one of the series (Eye of the World). On the suggestion of a friend, I gave the book a sincere try. But after 400 pages of sheer torture, I just had to put it down. Am I ever glad I did! Not only is his concept trite, Mr. Jordan simply has little talent for writing or arousing the interest of earnest Fantasy readers...unless cheap comic books are your thing.I come from the world of J.R.R. Tolkien, Stephen R. Donaldson, Frank Herbert...to name a few. These are authors who created actual worlds in which you could live and breathe, and who wove a rich tapestry of believable characters and events. Mr. Jordan's work can't hold a candle to these masterpieces. This is bubble-gum kiddie-kitsch at its best. Save your hard-earned money and valuable time, folks and...STAY AWAY!!

A good effort

Despite the effort made and the flashy book cover, this book really was weak. It's just an over-hyped collection of possible correlations that aren't proven enough to be acceptable as correlations for the average reader.I didn't like it. It was disjointed, vague, and in some parts it was just ridiculous word vomit.I don't understand why this book is on the bestseller list or what people get from it. It just made me mad because all it is is a series of ramblings and over-the-top observations.

Too complicated

I ordered this book over the holidays for a friend with three little ones thinking it would be a fun activity for them. When I received it I looked through it and thought my goodness how can anyone figure out how these are suppose to sound. I found it would take a few hours to figure it out and so knowing my friend is a busy Mom as it is would not appreciate receiving something of this nature. The print is very small and I think it would be better in a spiral binding, larger print and a CD along with it to give an example of how the clap is suppose to sound. I have a masters in music and if I found this confusing, good luck for everyone else.

I purchased this product for my dad, who was injured and unable to play at the computer. I looked at several options and thought I picked the best option, others complained about backlight, and losing the pegs so I thought I had made a good choice. The game was horrible, the buttons un responsive, the programming ancient and slow. I returned it without ever giving it as a gift. I am pretty good at figuring out games etc, I was ready to throw it against a wall I can't imagine how my dad would have done with it!!!!Amazon was great in the return process the game was horrible

There are many resources about depression. Unfortunately, most, if not all, are geared toward women. This targets men as the subject of the book.

A Solid Book for Intermediate/Advanced ESL students

This solid book provides ESL students and community college members with a strong foundation in academic writing.Grounded in both classic techniques and modern readings, Blueprints 2 helps fill that awkward, and considerable, skills gap between what weak students know and what college courses require. An excellent resource for IEP summer programs - and low level community college composition courses.Although I currently teach another text, Introduction to Academic Writing for Graduate Students (Swales), I also know that many of my so-called "Intermediate ESL" graduate students would benefit a great deal from this fine text.By the way, the author Folse has made many contributions to the ESL field from his excellent Great Essays and Great Paragraphs to Clear Grammar 2 and Discussion Starters.

Does the job for about an hour

Educational value, one of the ratings criteria, is irrelevant for this toy, so this should be disregarded. But, as this was one of the criteria, I had to rate it low. Overall, this is a very good toy, but it because of the size of the bottle it blows bubbles for only about an hour. I also had to wiggle the bottle when it was low to get the flow going again. I had reasonable expectations for this toy, so I'm happy with the product for the price.

Stunning....

As a ballet dancer, I have come to find the not-so-glamorous side of the ballet world: eating disorders plague it (and directors encourage them), dancers having multiple relationships with other dancers, and the constant pressure to always be at the top. Gelsey Kirkland seemed to have a ballet career that was glorious and fulfilling, yet with every hit of cocaine she took to keep her dancing, her life gained more emptiness and she was dying. Her personal torment is so personally and vividly revealed in this autobiography that you can actually feel her pain and loneliness as she reiterates each of her harrowing experiences. It is sad that some of her best dramatic performances were given at the lowest points in her personal life. This is one of the most stunning autobiographies I have ever read.

Atmospherically Pleasing

I never had the opportunity to see Sleepy Hollow in theatres but heard great things from a number of my colleagues and friends. When the movie came out on DVD I took notice and rented it. Sufficit to say, I was not disappointed in any way. Burton's interpretation of the Headless Horseman myth was masterful and conveyed the perfect atmosphere for the story. Gory and gothic, there was always a sense of darkness and foreboding during the movie. For those of us who had only the merest passing affiliation with the original myth, much (if not all) of the story was surprising and suspenseful. Personally, though, I think the occasional use of comedy helped to keep the story from becoming too dark in tone, and I really enjoyed this movie. For anyone with an interest in suspense, drama, horror, or even fantasy (much of the movie had a fantasy feel to it), this movie is sure to delight.

Go straight to Yoshiesque 2

I purchased "Yoshiesque 2" first and I enjoyed it so much, I regretfully purchased this cd without listening to a track. I really think this duo is extremely talented and they are superb at blending tracks seemlessly without interupting an infectious groove but the track selection is just awful on this set. I have tried repeatedly to "see the light" on this one and I have failed. I even listened to both cds back-to-back without any distractions and the verdict is in: Save your money and just buy the much more interesting, more musical, user-friendly Yoshiesque 2. The Renaissance discs are good also, though both discs seem to start quite well and finish in rather chaotic and disorganized fashion. I am sure many prefer it to the"esque" series altogether, but for me they just aren't as well-rounded or as easy to listen to.

Rick "Kick Me Charlie" Steves

While I find that the Rick Steves books have interesting info, I can't get past his loser mind-set. It seems, to Mr. Steves, that we should respect and honor everyone else's culture except for our own. He makes a BIG point in explaining to us egotistical Americans that nobody wants to trade passports with us, so don't go thinking America is the greatest country there is. Let a Parisian bite your head off about the Bush administration - suck it up, Bud! Sure, Mr. Brit, kick me in the pants because you've met some loud and rude Americans - heck! I deserve it! I'm an (sotto voice) American. I don't know why he doesn't move to Europe and stay there.

Why Couldn't She Create Publisher With Her Power?

Because these books are so bad no publisher outside her own cult's would publish them, that's why! Self-indulgent, filled with stories about her those she's known who didn't listen to her ego driven advice and suffered the horrors, this book does little to enlighten much to offend, bore and scare.

This book is a collection of period documents relating to piracy and its effects. Would not suggest as a primary resource for knowledge of the period, but is an excellent secondary source for details that aren't available in more narrative based historical books.

Astounding

Charlotte really has an amazing voice. Hopefully, she will be able to cultivate it. My faves included Amazing Grace, The Flower Duet and All Love Can Be. I think that the duet with Josh Groban, titled The Prayer should not have been sung because Groban's voice is so much stronger that Charlotte's that is makes her sound weak. But it is a beautiful song.I believe those buying this album will enjoy it. There are plenty of well known standards and Charlotte does a good job with all. I believe that she is not that far away from a 5-star album. I wonder what this album is a prelude to?????

A SWING AND A MISS!!!!

Despite their good intentions-----or possibly the record co.'s marketing strategy at the time, this record IS as bad as you may have heard it was. Both of these guys have done worthy work over the course of their careers but this is not some of it. They had a stellar cast of session musicians -and Jerry Garcia said of them and this record,"They could be as good as the Beatles" Well, Jerry played on this record but these guys gained nothing from the experience. A truely embarrassing piece of work from an era noted for embarrassments.

Made a little adjustment

After having my steam iron lie flat on the holder and, consequently lose all its water, I fiddled with the tabs in the opening to see if I could make the iron rest on a sharper angle. Voila! By bending the tabs--very carefully so as not to break them--I was able to deepen the resting angle for my iron. The only problem now is where to attach it. My husband irons left-handed and I iron right-handed. I'd like to put it at the end, but he wants it mounted on the side. It's on the side (I don't want to discourage him from helping out in the laundry room)!
