1 | Not what I was expecting !! | I must say that I'm a big Morbid Angel fan. I really like just about all their albums including Gateways. They always put out a strong release, except for the Domination album. I'm not really getting into this one. A couple tracks are very strong and others are just plain boring. The production sounds hollow and everytime I get into a track, It's followed by a weak track. There's no flow to this album. Morbid could do so much better and be way more brutal. I wish they would pick up the pace and go back to being more of a speed Death Metal act. When I saw them on stage in May 2004, the tracks off this album were played at a faster pace and sounded much better than the studio recordings. Regardless, they are the kings of Death Metal and when they took the stage they blew every other band away. | 11 | [

2 | I love it! I love it! I love it! | I was afraid to buy this item after reading the only two reviews on this item. Despite my reservation, I decided to buy it anyway because I am into the retro look and trust the delonghi name. I must admit my expectations were fairly low (based on the two previous reviews). I am pleased to report that I really like the way the unit looks and I love the way it generates heat. It warmed up quickly and produced consistent heat from the sides and the top. The heater is really hot to the touch. This product did exactly what it claimed it would do well. I don't know if the other purchasers received defective units or if they had unreasonable expectations. I am extremely satisfied with this product. I would recommend it to anyone into the retro look searching for a space heater that will heat up a small area. It is also great for someone looking to provide supplemental heat to any area without adequate heat. I love this heater. | 12 | [

1 | 120 Days of Mindless Dribble! | A Missunderstood Genius? A rebel against religious tyranny? Hardly! De Sade didn't care about religion! He wasn't some rebel trying to make the world more free for the masses. He was simply putting his own disturbed fantasies to paper. Half of them people we call insane and are in institutions right now are no where near as mad as this man whom we call a is understood genius! This book is actually written in the form of a list, detailing the daily (repetative) events taken on by a group of perverse people. I do however give him credit for being origional with this mess of a plot. Each time, he does think of some disgusting obsenities no one else would have thought of. But, is that a good thing? The story is basically the bio of this woman who entertains the rest of these fools by telling them her life story. Listen to this charactors life story and compare it to his book Juliette. Alike much? | 14 | [

2 | Michael proves to be Invincible!!!! | Invincible is Amazing!!! Michael Jackson has really done great with this CD. Each song is great. No matter what mood you may be in, there is a song to listen to. I truely believe that this is his best CD. When Michael said "You ain't seen nothin' yet."... This album shows you just what he was talking about. Michael Jackson is here to stay, and there is nothing that will ever stop him from doing what he loves to do. This is by far my favorite CD I have ever heard. Buy It! It's Awesome! Michael, You're the BEST!!! The KING OF POP!!!!! | 14 | [

2 | Somebody is going to be staked | Sookie Stackhouse becomes pissed. It seems that Bill is holding back information from her. And Eric. And everybody. Why? A job he has to do? An old flame? Betrayal? All I can say is everything is turned upside down, as werewolves, vampires and shifters all get into the act. Club Dead isn't called that for nothing. This could be the most dangerous place she would ever take a date to. And you'll love every minute! | 12 | [

2 | So far so good | Should have spent more time reading directions. Figure that's a good way to get your attention.1. Buy a foam brush2. Get a plastic solo cup to put the stuff in (uncork the top of the bottle)3. Apply very light coats. If its dripping on the floor you have too much.4. If it drips you will need to clean it up. Dont know how how thats going to go yet.5. After the first 1-3 rounds dont get discouraged if you arent getting an even coat. Keep applying / drying6. Finished product is dramatically darker than you start, and after a few passes becomes uniform (eg. it cant get any darker than it can get at a point)2003 G35 Sedan (black) - tired of the grey surround plastics at the bottom. Now I'm rolling so much smoother now, many girls have tired to get with this that it is very fresh. | 13 | [

1 | My Cylon is on the blink! | I was really excited when I got my Cylon figure. Even when it was still in the package I could see that the sculpt was right on. I thought this is a great figure... then I opened the package. One of his chrome shoulder gaurds fell off right out of the clam shell. For thirteen bucks you shouldn't have to deal with that. I fixed it easy enough though with a dab of crazy glue. Another problem came into view when I tried to put this guy on my bookshelf. You can't stand him up! No matter how you try to pose him, the Cylon falls down like frat boy on St. Patrick's Day. As I tried to pose him for display I found numerous ugly gaps in the joints, and an arm actually fell off. That was repaired easy enough but still. Anyhow after all that I still like this guy because I'm die hard Galactica fan, but I wouldn't advise anyone else to plunk down thier hard earned scratch for this figure. | 12 | [

2 | The Only Book You Need | Excellent book. Annabel Karmel is a recognized world author of making infant, toddler, and children's meals. It is easy to use. Breaks things down so you are only learning what you need to know for the age of child you are cooking for. She gives you important information in the beginning that was a wealth of knowledge. It wasn't too much but focused on the important stuff that everyone needs to know. Great quick reference when you are not sure about something. This book has all the recipes that you need. Once you get the hang of it you can tailor it to your own child's likes. I bought quite a few books because I wanted to make all of my own baby food. This is the one that I used. Many of the others I took to the used bookstore. If you are interested in making healthy, yummy food for your little ones this is a must have. | 13 | [

2 | Elbow rest essential | I was going to return this but then tried it with an elbow rest on my chair and it's much more comfortable that way.(made even better with the following freeware programs: MouseTool, Voice Flux Pro). . . . . . . . . .Update 2006-10-22I'd like to drop my review to 2 stars. My inner forearm hurts when I use this mouse. Probably something to do with the difficulty of pushing the buttons, because there is nothing to counteract your push (except your thumb on the other side I suppose).I'm finding a trackball is working better for me (Kensington Expert Mouse)...........Update 2007-01-22Actually I'm finding this mouse can be very comfortable when used with one of those programs that auto-clicks whenever you stop moving the mouse. | 13 | [

2 | great stuff | I simply do not understand why more comic fans do not have this work in their personal collections. Frank Miller is a comic legend. Walt Simonson is a respected visionary as well. I think any collaboration between the two would be reason enough to buy this book. Are people put off just because they chose to work on a topic as fun as a meeting between Robocop and some Terminators?This comic is downright entertaining. Miller's storyline includes all the essentials of a good Robocop and a good Terminator tale. Of course, he also adds some new characters and twists. The storyline is smooth and not forced, unlike a huge number of crossover tales out there. Both Robocop and the Terminator can be difficult to draw, but Simonson is more than up to the task. His visions of the future are well-thought out and executed.This is a good book. Try it. | 11 | [

1 | EVEN FREE IS TOO PRICY (really!!!! I mean it!~) | I would give this zero stars if possible, it would be tremendously funny since then it would match the album title. somebody burned me a copy of this. I am either going to use it for a coffee cup coaster, return it to the person, or give it to someone I only can hope will appreciate this whiny little man. I think this would be a better instrumental cd. I am not just bashing the religious nature of the music. I just think this guy was not meant to sing. Perhaps he should write and let someone else sing. Also, the words themselves don't go good with the rhythm of the guitar. The end. May I never listen to this dude again. He stinks. | 11 | [

1 | Junk -- After 23 months | Don't buy this camera!!! Prone to "Memory Error" & E18 errors after warranty is up. Cost min $150 plus shipping to fix.This camera was great until 23 months went by then I started mysteriously losing pictures due to file format errors. I switched memory cards and it happened again. Then the "memory error" displayed after a month or so of losing pictures. Now it doesn't work at all. I called canon to see what type of service could be provided and if they would fix what appears to be a factory defect since so many people have reported this problem. Minimum cost is $150 or I could upgrade to a refurb S500 for $199 w/6 month warranty. They have to be kidding, $250 get me a new one. For what appears to be common problem I was expecting more from canon. Guess I won't be buying another canon.Google this "Canon "Memory Error" E18" and see for yourself that Canon cameras have problems. | 11 | [

1 | Almost burned my house down! | We purchased this unit about 3 years ago to dehumidify my basement. It ran just fine for the first 2 years. During the third season of use, I noticed a strange smell in my basement near the end of the humid season. Just the other day I was moving this humidifier to its winter storage location and noticed the rug under the unit was burnt! Then I lifted up the unit and noticed the plastic on the bottom was all melted and black. It turns out after pulling everything apart it was the compressor getting very hot. So hot I could not touch it. The scary thing is, the dehumidifier still runs and removes moisture. Had it died all together, I would have known something was wrong, but as it stood, I had no idea there was an issue until I unplugged it and moved it away to see the burn in the rug. I guess I now know what the smell was in my basement. At any rate, I'm lucky I did not burn down my house! I'll be steering clear of Maytag for my next dehumidifier. | 12 | [

1 | Time to grow up | Poor me, poor me, pour me another drink. Or in her case get me some more coke. I am in recovery myself, and I find this book to be more reflective of someone who has borderline or some kind of personality disorder, in addition to substance abuse. The only way to say this is that the author is simply unlikable. Not at all like the other books I have read about recovery. This woman needs to get over herself. She is at least 30 in the book and she keeps refering to herself as a girl and as having boy problems. Some feminist she makes. She is not someone that I would aspire to be like in my recovey, as a career women or as a so called feminist. When she said she would be more honest as a stripper she got it right. People read her books because she was attractive not because of her writing ability. Lets see how she does as she ages. | 12 | [

1 | Do Not Buy | Initially, I was very excited for these to come in the mail. But when they did, the shape of the frames was not what it looked like on the picture. It was more rectangular and gave it a more manly denotation. Then to make these EVEN better, the color of the lenses were BLACK, not brown. So when you looked at them they had a brown frame with black lenses. These were not at all what I wanted or expected from the picture. And so, I just gave them to my boyfriend. So my recommendation would be to NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. Its cheapness may be alluring, but don't do it. Just don't. Save your time and money. | 11 | [

2 | I'm the shepard of the harvest. | Add this to your collection. Though not as scary as the original, this movie is out there and great in it's own way. It picks up 15 years after the first Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Dennis Hopper Plays the Uncle of Sally and Franklin two of the Kids who were killed in the Original. So much for the Plot. The Sets and the sheer lunacy make this film stand on it's own. The Showdown between Hopper and the Family of Freaks will have you in stiches. The Dvd is rather bland no extras really. The Picture and sound quality are A quality. If your a horror fan. Check it out. | 11 | [

2 | EXCELLENT | Tired of D&D? Want to MAKE a character? Want to specialize? This is the RPG for you then. Make your character JUST like you want him/her/it. Want to be dumb and disgustingly good with a sword? It is your choice. GURPS can be as simple or as complex as you want it to be. That is its hook, its magic. You want to shift numbers all day in a battle you can. You want battles to be swift, vioklent, and over so you can get back to the story you can. I highly reccomend this system. | 12 | [

2 | The Best One Yet- Tied with #1, | The Opening scene starts with a little intro to Two-Face. He tosses a coin. Heads, the victim lives. Tails, he dies. Luckily, Batty makes an entrance with the punching of some thugs. Kilmer made an awesome opening, and was fit to play Batsy-Boy. Two-Face made a bad opening. Eventually, the Riddler and 2y join forces. Riddler "Has Deviced A Way 2 Read Men's Minds." I won't tell you how he wins and saves his new comrade, Robin, and his girl-friend, Chase.Kilmer was an awesome Batty, Jones reminded me of '66 Penguin. Carrey could get annoying, O'Donell ruled at his work. Kidman was the average Kidman character. Sexy, romantic, ya know?Overall, this is a must see. Buy it today! | 14 | [

2 | The Unwanted | I stayed up all night reading this book! I simply could not put it down. Each and every chapter contained some event which would propel me eagerly to the next chapter! I only gave it 4 stars out of 5 because it left me with numerous questions left unanswered. I wanted to know more details about his life AFTER the plane ride to the US. I wanted to know about his family AFTER the plane ride to the US. I thought the author to be an easy (and honest) story teller. Too often in these types of books the author makes him/herself out to be perfect. Not the case in this book. The author tells it with surprising honesty. My only wish would be for a sequel so that my unanswered questions can be addressed. I am very interested in his life post-Viet Nam. | 12 | [

1 | Has its moments... | The concept behind this toy is great, but the engineering/design is not. Looking at the picture here, I believe they may have redesigned since we got our son one 6 months ago as the chute attaches differently as pictured. Perhaps this works better because the chute is constantly coming apart on ours. We've also had the problem of the balls getting stuck or just kind of swaying back and forth. The music is HORRIBLY loud. We have to turn it off if we're trying to watch TV and son is playing in the room. Many musical toys have at least a low and high volume switch. This one desperately needs one!!On the positive, our son does love to watch the balls and grab at them as they pop out or go down the chute. He will chase the balls when they go flying. He's not quite old enough to know how to put them back in the toy once they are out, but he'll get there. He'd probably play with it a lot more had I more tolerance for the music! | 12 | [

1 | Watch out for impatiens if using this product | In my neighborhood, I am the "container garden queen". I am currently (in June 2012) on my fourth week of using Spray n Grow. So far I have lost all the impatiens (22 or 23 plants). They simply yellowed out and then dropped off. The plants came from various nurseries, so I don't think it was the plants. The salvia is yellowing out now. Don't want to lose them so will stop using the product on them. The geraniums on the other hand LUV this stuff. I have never seen such great reactions on a geranium before. Due to the fact that no warnings are given for certain plants, I give this a one star and am still insecure to use it on anything except the geraniums. P.S. I am also seeing negative results on begonias, but not as bad as the impatiens. The impatiens I have in the ground are also crapping out. | 13 | [

1 | Very Upset Customer!! | I purchased a copy of the "stand" by Stephen King. The movie was in VHS form, which was Ok. However, the movie was suppose to have 4 tapes (which is the entire movie). However, I only received part 1 and part3. I was very displeased. I then, notified the seller of the matter. He said he apologized for the problem and that he would send me the other parts or refund my money back to me in full. But to this day, I am still waiting for money or tapes. Please do something about this matter. I will, from now on, think again before purchasing anything from Amazon.Com.Please make this right. Thank You. Melissa Ashton | 12 | [

2 | Great Gloves | I bought these gloves two years ago. I am back to buy another pair. I am not even looking at other brands because these have been the perfect glove for me and my workout style. 5 times per week. Extremely heavy dead lifting, bench pressing, curling, all with knurled bars. Weekly bouts with the washing machine and they are just now starting to lose it at the seams and some of the padding is getting loose. I could probably get another 6 months from them. The fact that they lasted two full years is amazing in itself. Other brands I have tried didn't make it a year, or I dumped them because they just weren't doing the job. One note, the price has jumped $7 since I bought them. Maybe I will buy two pair and get ahead of the price increases..... | 11 | [

1 | Bit the sell out apple | This album is basically trash. Jay-Z changed his format. From a fast rhyming MC doing cameos on Original Flavor and Big Daddy Kane, to versatility in his previous albums, to just living the fantasy life in this album. The hip hop fans may boo me for this but it's freedom of speech so I'm not hating. It is basically fact that he bit the sell out apple. Only four tracks are hot and three of them are featuring Memphis Bleek. This album went from bad to worse. To all your Jigga fans: I don't follow trends. I listen to what's appealing to my ears. In my personal opinion, I do not listen to cristal popping, and drug pushing because I don't live it. If hip hop is about lying to the fans, play with their emotions about being a playa or drug pusher and actually do not live that lifestyle, then I must quit listening to the artform called hip hop. | 11 | [

2 | A favorite kitchen organizer. | I have several of these corner organizers in my kitchen. They work great for a variety of items not just dishes. It is a good organizer for bowls, lids, coffee cups just to name a few. They work well side by side or alone. Note that the Grayline brand is a bit higher in price BUT it has additional corner stablizer rods. These make these very sturdy. I use Fiesta dishes and they are pretty hefty but these hold them with no effort. I have one in my kitchen that does not have this extra rod and it is not as sturdy and will easy bend if anything heavy is placed on it. I have to use it for something lightweight like plastic lids and such. You can also turn these on the side to use. These come packaged well and in good condition each time I order them. | 11 | [

2 | Shofar Extra large Yemenite | Shofar Extra Large YemeniteThis turned out to be a fabulous shofar. A friend of mine blows the shofar during church festivals. He's very skilled at blowing the shofar. He tested this one out for me and when he blew it, he hit 5 notes! This shofar belongs to my nine year old daughter. She is already randomly hitting three notes after only three days of practice. I highly recommend this seller for their extra large Shofars. - Also note, the shipping was very quick. We ordered the Shofar one day after the Rosh Hashanah (9/28)service and picked it up from the post office a few hours before the first evening of Sukkot (10/12). It was shipped from Isreal to Washington state in that amount of time.The only questionable aspect of this transaction was that the long, somewhat flimsy box came with a Shofar rolling around in it. It had just a little bubble wrap on the mouth piece area. Mine wasn't damaged at all but I think it could have been had the handling been too rough. | 12 | [

2 | 12 Year Old Daughter Loves it! | I bought this for my daughter's birthday. She loves animals and is especially into owls. I wanted something small that she can take with her anywhere and this fit the bill. It is small, light, and works great. Once she understood how it works, she just loves using it. In fact, her brother and sister are always fighting to take a turn at using it. I guess I know what to get for their birthdays. Also, my kids love the commercial for this monocular as well, they crack up every time they see it.UPDATE 4/28/12:So far so good! My daughter still loves this item and uses it all the time. During those times when she forgets to bring it, she always finds something she could have used the monocular to zoom in on. Definitely still recommended! | 11 | [

2 | Keep it under the bed | I received what I wanted for Christmas, the 6-D cell Maglite in Black, along with a Terrelux 140 lumen bulb. The two are a winning combination. You will not lose this flashlight. It will not break. It does shine 3 football fields away. You will be viewed with authority while wielding it.I keep it under the bed so that when the power goes out or there's a bump in the night, I know where to find it. It's a club and a light, exactly what you need when you hear noises in the night. Love it! Every man should want one. It weighs well over 5 lbs and it'll pack a punch if necessary. Two hands are required for a good swing. It's about the weight of a professional baseball bat with batteries installed. | 12 | [

2 | I would love to see this put into film | I started this series aprox. 4 years ago. The first book reeled me right in. Out of all of them thus far, (with exception to Wizard's First Rule), this book is the best! A definite page turner from the beginning. The relationships between Kahlan, Richard, and Cara the Mord-Sith are riveting and fun. This book makes you hold your breath, laugh and cry. Goodkind has a flair for detail, capturing every movement of the characters as they speak and think. I would love to see this book adapted to a screenplay. There are so many interesting characters and plots weeved in. I know it would be a blockbuster hit. | 11 | [

2 | I never get tired of this movie!!!! | My wife and I saw this on our honeymoon. It was playing on our television on our cruise ship. We enjoyed it so much that we must have watched it three or four times in that seven day span. Kevin Kline is absolutly a great actor. Its about a boy and his father who are not very close. The boy lives with his mom b/c his parents are divorced. When the boys father discovers that he is dying of cancer and is given a short time to live, he asks that his son come and stay with him for the summer and help him build a house. Dispite his rebellous sons complaints, and what seems like disgust of his father........well, I really dont want to give anymore of the movie away, but I can tell you that you wont regret seeing this film. There are so many other interesting events that take place in this movie, and so many suprises. Your garenteed to laugh, cry, and watch this movie over and over. This is one of those rare movies that leaves you feeling good after you see it. | 11 | [

2 | The way a PC RPG should be! | Stonekeep is an excellent RPG. Not many people have heard of this game, and I don't know why. The graphics are top notch (for a game designed during the time the game was released). The storyline is very well written. The magic system is done well. The combat system is not unique but done WELL! The ability to have other (computer controlled) charters to fight next to you is a nice feature. The puzzles make you think! The overall atmosphere draws you into the game.The only flaws are the game is to short. In theory you can finish the game in a day. No replay ability (one ending). You might want to go back and look for hidden magic weapons you missed before, though. And you have to work a little to make it run on newer systems.In the end this should be the standard as far on how a RPG should be made. You simply have to play this game! | 14 | [

2 | Now I Get Darcy | This is the first book from Darcy's perspective (and I've read them all) that really made me understand the inner workings of his mind and how he could have been so deluded in his relationship with Elizabeth. In P&P;, we only know that he thought she was 'expecting his addresses'. Why he thought that, Austen never tells us. Aidan does. We see their interactions at Netherfield and learn how Darcy initially fell for her and why.The character Fletcher, his valet, was very well done and memorable. I learned a lot about him from how he trained his dog. You see how disciplined a man he is and what he expects from others. It was a little heavy, but appropriately so. It's a nice contrast to the lighter, fast-read P&P; sequels. This book demands that you take your time. Aidan is a genius. Well done! | 12 | [

Jordan and his editor have managed to turn die hard fans against them. I've kept hope that some of the side plots hinted at in ealier books would be resolved eventually, while the main plot progresssed slowly. Its hasn't happened at all. It just keeps growing and going no where. My little brother is currenlty reading book six and is loving every word. I feel bad knowing whats in store for him. I would keep hope, but I can't fathom how Jordan could address everything he has introduced with out some spin off books. It is all such a dissapointment now. I'll probably wait until the series is finished before I read another book and then I'll spend as little money as posssible. | 11 | [

1 | Had such high hopes for the MyBookProII | I just received my WD 1TB ProII. Works fine on WinXP under USB 2.0. Firewire 400 will not work. I have 3 other Maxtor OneTouch II and III's so am used to working with Firewire. Fan is incredibly noisy, read comments on WD Online Forum and you'll see others have same complaint. My Maxtor OneTouchIII's are virtually silent in comparison. Unable to update firmware for fan noise and I see on forums others are having same problem with drive detection. I wanted the WD for the 3yr warranty and self-replacement that Maxtor OneTouchIII's don't have but this WD product is not ready for mainstream. Unable to get through to phone support and been 3 days and no response on email. Going to return drive ASAP and get another Maxtor OneTouch 1TB. Warning, buy this model at your own risk. Good luck to those who are lucky enough to get a stable unit that works. | 12 | [

1 | RX600 and Epson very disappointing | We bought our RX600 3-4 years ago. Prints great photos. Scans successfully. Was never able to scan slides. All kinds of problems dating back to brand new. Ink is outrageously expensive and it consumes tons of ink. I have had to periodically unplug the RX600 to reset it to where it would boot up. Yesterday, it froze. Had to unplug again. This time, it's completely dead. Will not power up. Followed the Epson on-line troubleshooting, which led me to a 562 area code number (no toll free number???). That led me to customer service - IN INDIA!!! You get someone with a script in front of them who knows nothing about the product. I will ditch this RX600 and go back to a name I trust - HP. I have an HP LaserJet 4P, new in 1992, still runs like a champ. Printer cartridges are $100 about every 6-8 months. Wonderful printer. The RX600 has been a terrible disappointment. | 19 | [

2 | magical... | Here is the thing, I wanted a checker board for games at my local coffee shop. But, I wanted something unique. This board is. I am not sure what the board is actually made of... it is like a sort of fabric/leather. Very cool. The pieces are plastic like those of an old-school checker set, save a tiny magnet embedded on the back. How it sticks to the board I have no idea.The only part I did not like is the sticker that was on the tube. However, I was able to carefully peal it off. Now, when I show up to play people are not really sure what it is I am carrying, at once, I roll out my board, and begin setting up the pieces. Pieces, that seem to magically stay on the board. I really like this set! | 11 | [

1 | Stop. Do not pass go. Do not spend $90. | I've posted this review on several differently colored panini presses...though mine is red. I'm THAT passionate about the low quality of this product. It angers me every time I see it in my closet (won't fit in my cabinets). This press:1.) Doesn't heat both sides equally2.)

1 | No worth the time or money | There are more cons than pros for this product for me.Pros:1. Extra length (at least I saw it in my lashes)2. A primer and mascara in one tubeCons:1. Lots of clumps!2. The wands are not long. I cannot do my bottom or inner lashes with the short wands without getting mascara everywhere.3. The brushes are huge, which are not proportionate to the wand length. Making application very difficult.4. Extra time applying the primer and mascara.5. Applies way to much product.Honestly, I expected a lot more than what I actually got. Applying this product was messy and difficult. My lashes definitely looked fuller, but that was due the excess amount of product that I could not control when applying. Save your money on this one. | 13 | [

2 | Ass is good | A darn good album and a brilliant song is "Apple Of My Eye". Pete Ham's beautiful voice and a fantastic sentiment about leaving behind the Beatles label. has there ever been anyone like him since? Hopefully this reissue is remastered. All the material is great. Ham's guitar at the end of "Constitution" is excellent. Molland's "I Can Love You" is another favorite of mine. Too bad he turned out to be such a dip, putting out that atrociously produced not-really live LP, a let's-make-a-quick-buck collection of some demos of his that was shoddy, and his horribly embarrassing covers CD's of many Badfinger classics that take away from people buying the legitimate stuff. Joey --- Come back to reality!! It's not about the money--- Granted this album isn't perfect, like "Straight Up," but it's my second favorite Badfinger LP. Thanks to Mike B. for turning me on to it. | 11 | [

2 | Wish it were available before my trip | Most people would buy a travel guidebook prior to the trip. I did it the other way round (I vacationed in NZ mid last year but bought the book one month ago). I certainly spared no time clicking the Add to Shopping Cart button when this title first appeared in the website. So... does the book measure up to my expectation? Definitely!!! The photos are great, the coverage on each area's attractions/activities extensive, and the maps up-to-date. It even covers information which I wasn't able to obtain from other guidebooks: special features on Coromandel gold fever, "Wellywood" (NZ's film-making industry), Nelson arts scene, West Coast coal-mining heritage, high country farming etc. If you need one book to show you how beautiful NZ is (in panorama and culture) and how to go about experiencing it, grab this book. You won't regret it. The editors have done a great job for a first edition. Be prepared to call your travel agent...! | 11 | [

1 | Phoooey | This is one of the reasons why Ipod is getting on my nerves sometimes. Yeah Apple became famous due to the Ipod-hype. Ipod is cool alright, but hey, you add another product for it which is an obvious blatant abuse of marketing hype. This is first of all, WAY TOO EXPENSIVE, compared to the other equally good(or even better) hi-fi speakers out there. And second, the sound it produces is just freakin' the same. Sheeshhh... I don't know who would be able to spend their hard-earned money on this thing. Great speakers from Altec Lansing and Creative Labs are out there. They're equally good. This one? Well... it's a waste. | 11 | [

2 | Great but not enough | I confess I am just a beginner. And I personally think this is a good book for someone like me who know nothing about Flash. This book covers everything in Flash. It sounds great. But it also means that they are not covered in detail. The companion CD-ROM contains some great Real movie, which spares me a lot of time from reading. But after reading the book and browsing all the CD-ROM, I am not very satisfied that this book doesn't teach me how to build a simple game or guide me to make something more complicated than a symbol! As a beginner, I call these things stimulus. When I browse websites like Eye4u's, I want to do something like that. And if I can get help from a book to do this, I will get more encouragement to try and think. Now, what I do instead is go buy other books for stimulus. | 11 | [

2 | My hair has never looked better | I'm actually surprised by the reviewers that said that their product broke down in one or two months. I've had mine for almost a year and it's operation is still outstanding. Here are the highlights:1) Temperature control is perfect. I have fine but unruly hair so the metal iron I used before singed my hair constantly. The adjuster really works for this product (not just decoration) and I haven't had the problem of burnt hair since.2) This heats up fast. Again with a metal iron it would take 15 minutes to heat up and would consistently cool down making the whole straightening process take an hour. This takes about 3 minutes to heat up and a minute to reheat. I straighten my hair in 15 minutes now.3) Ceramice plates in general are better for your hair. They won't damage it as much and I've found they are more effective also. My hairstyle will stay all day even in high humidity (provided I have an umbrella).Definately worth your money!!! | 11 | [

1 | Not very useful | the book is a below average tour book. This book has very little value, if any in purchasing a home in Greece. There is a half page in the book about purchase contracts. no mention of costs, taxes, closing fees etc. It would have been nice if they had an example of a closing statement. Throughout the book they bold stuff that they think is very important. Almost all of this is common sense that you could find in any real estate book in any country. example: If you can't make any appointment call and cancel. another, If you don't know where you want to live, rent first. Even the references in the back are poor. You would do much better by calling the tourist office and telling them, you wanted to buy a home in Greece and wanted information. Overall, this book is extremely general, given little or no details about real estate in Greece and has no value. Don't waste your time. | 13 | [

2 | disappointed | bought kindle 1 last xmas for a gift. I reside in Canada . paid the item with canadian credit card and had it delivered to us address. The item was then shipped to Canada for its use. Problem was: while in Canada, to create an account for the kindle through Amazon in order to download books was impossible with either canadian or us credit card. (Very disappointed). I spent 3 hours with Amazon Tech support to solve this problem, but no positive result. Amazon appologizes for the inconvenient??? What is my solution? Love the product but cannot use it??Having seen it praized by Oprah I was sure it was a fantastic product. Oprah's shows touches an international audience and never once was it mentionned for US residents onlyVery frustrated as I still believe in this product.Jo M (Montral Canada) | 12 | [

1 | Why I buy used ... | I lived in rural Alaska for some years and missed being able to browse through my favorite new and used CD/DVD stores in the Bay Area ... Rasputin's and Amoeba. Happily, I live near them again. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This movie is the near perfect reason why you should buy used. This movie does what only a handful of movies have done before ... it both blows and sucks! I haven't witnessed any comparable level of bad acting in recent memory. I won't address issues regarding historical context here ... it's a movie people, Hollywood is Hollywood and they don't care about history ... they care about entertainment, or they care about the lowest common denominator, or they care about both ... whichever choice will make the most cash. As for Oliver Stone, he can be entertaining, but here he is just inept. I lay the fault for this crap squarely on his head. One question, though: Colin, dude, what were you thinking? | 12 | [

2 | TRON Rocks! | This film came out in the summer of 82. This was a good summer for films(E.T., Star Trek II, Rocky III, Poltergeist). I recently checked the digitally remastered vhs out and hope to find this one on dvd soon. Nothing but fun! The soundtrack by Wendy Carlos kicks(good tune by Journey-ONLY SOLUTIONS also).It is fun to see how dated the computer hardware technology is in the film when the actors are busy typing on those old TRS models! (ha ha). David Warner makes a truly evil villian as does the voice of MCP. Cute Cindy Morgan is always fun to watch(have always wondered what has become of her since her Caddyshack days!).Jeff Bridges swaggers around the screen much like Han Solo. Light cycle chase is awesome(remember the video game tie in to this film! ).Awesome light show! | 11 | [

Then it gets worse, I wasted 3 more bucks on 3D, which was suckish, because no one tried to scare you with a threat for a face injury. This is M. Night Shaylaman's worst work! Also, couldn't they just call it : The Last Airbender : Book One? I thought they were going to cram the whole T.V. series in there! That means ripoff x 6!

1 | Robin Hood, Prince of Dweebs | ...was our name for this movie when it first came out, and it fits. Maid Marian is Ninja Woman the first time we see her, but in the attempted rape scene, all she can do is scream "Robin, Robin!" and throw a candle at the Sheriff. Historical inaccuracies abound. Ditto all that has been said (all true) about Costner's accent. Stick to The Adventures of Robin Hood (Flynn in tights still comes off as far more masculine than Costner every thought of being), or the Disney Version (it has a few fun songs by Roger Miller instead of that abrasive Bryan Adams tune. Beautiful production, lousy script). And why did they have to add a Ceasearean, Celts, and Robin's illegitimate brother? They didn't think the script was convoluted enough? Brightest moment: Sean Connery's return from captivity. Too bad they didn't rescue Richard a little earlier; maybe he could have saved this film. | 11 | [

It was a classic to say the least. Now, as far as the rest of the PPV goes. DUD. Cactus Jack & Maxx Payne carry the Godwinns to a watchable match (but not good). Other than that?

1 | Spyro - Enter the long load times. | I've been a Spyro fan from the beginning and I was anxiously awaiting the release of this game. I bought it the first day it was released, ran home and popped it in the PS2......Yuck!What happened? If your looking for the old Spyro you won't find him here. Vivendi Universal has totally trashed the Spyro legacy. Anything that can be wrong with a game is in this one. Looks like Vivendi Universal released this game before they even tested it because as far as I'm concerned this game is UNPLAYABLE. Long load times and frame rate problems are just a few of the problems. I played this game for 10 minutes and I could not play it anymore. Don't waste your money. Buy Insomniacs new game Ratchet & Clank. It's 10 bucks cheaper and 1000 times better. FYI - Insomniac was the original developer of Spyro. | 12 | [

They located a service center which I dropped it off at. The tech could not fix it so Polaroid stated they would send out a refurbished unit. That was three weeks ago. I just called Polaroid. They told me the replacement unit has been sitting at their facility and they forgot to send it out to the service center.

1 | Horrible | Wouldn't install. Called Tech support 7 times.. they kept directing me to their website. Finally i got fed up and had one guy on the phone for 3 hours. They dont do a very good job with customer service. He wanted me to take the router and see if you detect on another computer, (i just moved to this city and dont know anyone) so what good would that do me. They kept telling me i had more than one firewall. I have xp service pack 2, i turned off my firewall, my anti-virus software adnd my pop up blocker. He kept telling me i had another firewall, so i reformatted my computer with him on the phone.. Still wouldnt work. So i returned that and the wireless card which worked fine, to best buy and got a full refund. They said they have had a bunch of problems with linksys products. DO NOT BUY, CUSTOMER SERVICE IS HORRIBLE, AND SO IS THE PRODUCT. | 12 | [

1 | Ewwwwwwwww! | Ok. I have read all previous Elminster books. They were good.AYE CARUMBA!! THIS BOOK IS BLOODY AWFUL!! Elminster, in order toclose a rift between the world and the Nine Hells, he uses all his magic to close it. So then he gets captured by a wannabe arch-devil. The rest of the book is fragments of Elminsters memories being reviewed and destroyed by the Arch-Devil. The memories have nothing to do with one another!! IN FACT, MOST ARENOT EVEN ELMINSTER'S!! Besides, most of the memories are syrupy romantic things. BORING. The ending is so implausible its funny. The Simbul kills THREE arch devils without a freakin scratch! And then Mystra comes in and kills thousands of devils WHO BEAT HER!!A FREAKIN GOD!! This book is boring and I would check it out at the library before you spend 30$ on it. The book should have a warning sign.However, all the previous Elminster books are very good and I would recommend them | 17 | [

2 | Beautiful picture! | Purchased this portable DVD player as a gift for my electronically challenged husband. He loves it!! He prefers to see his DVD's on this player rather than the TV. The picture is crystal clear! Very easy to use, he has had no trouble figuring out how to use this player. The large screen is so easy to see. There are two ports for headphones if two people want to listen. I wish it had come with a carrying case, but am very happy with this product. I researched these players before I purchased and this player had good reviews. I would recommend this player to anyone, but especially for anyone who is older (poorer eyesight) and electronically challenged. Amazon did have the best price. | 11 | [

1 | Why, Lucas? Why? | Will you never stop? I was at least considering getting the blu-ray versions. That was until news came of even more alterations. More of whatever it is you consider perfection. I used to fret at all the remakes and reboots of every other franchise out there like everyone else. Until I realized that our great originals still exist. But not in this case. You have stolen the originals, the classics from us. We'll never have them again. Or at least have them as we should. Suck it, Lucas. I'm going to watch Firefly. | 12 | [

1 | A Mistake | First of all, I bought this item assuming I could connect it to my iMac and, using Garage Band, download taped music onto my computer. Well, it doesn't do this. The fault is probably not with the boom box. I lack the technical knowledge to use it for this purpose. I can hardly blame Sony for this. True, it does play tapes, and there does seem to be a difference when I adjust the sound output for the various frequencies, tho this is subtle. The sound is good, but our 40 year old Harmon Karden set is superior. Apart from the fact the the product resembles a Martian land rover, my main complaint is that it is too temperamental when I try to play CDs. Some tracks and even some CDs simply refuse to play at all. Also I get cases of musicus interruptus with the CDs. If I had known all this I would not have bought the product. | 11 | [

1 | My doctor is an English professor | At this stage in the life (or prolonged death) of Freud, only 2 groups still "follow" the "Master"-- psychoanalysts, ill-trained for anything else; and English professors, who find Freud explains everything (anything). Appreciating that few if any read English academics' endless psychoanalyzing of Dickens, etc., Showalter now decides to enter the field of medical diagnosis. It is a breath of fresh air to find out that noone is really ill, most especially those who somehow think they are. Medicine needs more English professors. Perhaps we'll soon have whole HMOs peopled by escapees from dull English departments. Think of the money we'll save: "Next? Hello, nothing wrong with you; all 'in your head'". Take it from me. After all, I'm an ENGLISH PROFESSOR. Next?" -- and etc. Why didn't we discover English doctors years ago? Thank God for Showalter. | 13 | [

2 | Fabulous Video! | I bought this with 4 weeks to go before my due date w/my second child. My daughter, who is 2 1/2, instantly fell in love with it. And she never really watched Blues Clues before. It's wonderful! Even my husband and I enjoy watching it - Steve is really captivating. It does a great job of talking about things that are going to happen before the baby actually arrives (i.e. going to the "baby hospital", and that it can take a while). I know that if I need to tell my daughter that I need to go to the hospital to have the baby, she won't be confused or upset. She walks around the house saying "this baby thing just takes time". What a great video! As soon as it's over, she wants to watch it again. | 11 | [

1 | as exciting and interesting as toast | On the previous review page, I saw that many people enjoyed this book. All that I can think is that perhaps I missed something. I found this to be one of the most disappointing books that I have read in quite some time. The characters were uninteresting, the plot read like a re-hashed version of a bad futuristic sci-fi movie, and I never found myself caring for anything that King wrote about. The best way to summarise the plot would be to say that a man walks through a desert for 300 pages {`it's hot, I'm thirsty, it's hot, I'm alone, etc. etc.} and then meets a man, falls asleep {which is what I kept doing throughout this book} and then . . . sequel? Eugh. Maybe this is all necessary for the rest of the series, but it's put me off them. | 12 | [

2 | Thank You! A Well Waited Change! | I loved this movie! I love horror movies, and this is finally something to pull us away from those crappy teen slasher movies. The plot was original, and the Creeper was freaky. The two lead actors (Pillips and Long)were great portraying brother and sister, you could almost believe they were ciblins. The Creeper's truck was scary in itself, and was a nice little touch to the movie. The song "Jeepers Creepers" in the movie added the errie effect, and I get the shivers whenever i hear it. Trish(Gina Phillips)looked beautiful in the movie so it wasn't to hard to keep my head tuned to the screen. I liked the overall look of the Creeper. It was the first horror villain in a long while to actually freak me out. The ending was a bit lacking in closure, but surprising. It should leave room for a sequel. Overall the movie was great. | 12 | [

2 | Nice and roomy shelter | Put this up before winter set in and use it to store my boat and other items in it. It was relatively easy to erect and had my two younger sons help me out. However, the directions were not very clear, so I had to use some common sense to figure it out. After some initial confusion, we finally got it and it erected quite quickly. Make sure the "L"-shaped feet (4 of them)point toward the inside of the shelter and not to the outside. I gambled on that one, and got it right, whew! Start with three sections, and then add one section at a time until the end. Make sure that the width at the base is exactly the stated width of your unit or the cover will not fit properly. Other than the poor set-up instructions, this unit is great! It is good quality material and structure. I think the additional roof support with the cross-pipes is much better than other shelters. Just be sure to pull the cover snugly and evenly on both sides. Now we wait to see how it performs with heavy snow-load. | 13 | [

1 | IS THIS WHAT WOMEN DREAM ABOUT? | I was really disappointed in this novel by one of the best-selling writers of our time. I kept waiting for the characters to grow and get some depth. The woman, Kate, was a seventeen year old bright shining star when the story began. I kept waiting for her to get a grip and get rid of Joe, who was a selfish self-centered baby who wouldn't commit (and god forbid he get some help for that!) For example, on page 380 it was STILL HER FAULT. "She thought constantly about what had happened to them, trying to understand her part in it...and in time she could see how her reaching out and wanting more time with him had panicked him." YUK! Kate's life was really depressing, waiting for Joe to come home and throw her a bone once in a while. It wasn't another woman, but his obsession with his airplanes. I had hoped that the book would have Kate making some healthy choices. She showed such promise at the beginning... | 11 | [

1 | disappointed | First received the Keurig platinum B70 in January of 2010. I am now on my 4th replacement. These pots are junk. The first 2 after a short time you could hear water running but would not pump so they kept shutting off. The third one started short cupping after having it a short period of time so they ran me through all that cleaning bit, descaling and running three cups water through it and it continued to do the same. Called them back and got a different person and they had me do the same stuff again. Finally they sent me a fourth one and now it take 3-5 minutes of listening to a quiet motor running and it will say brewing before anything happens. A great big expensive piece of junk. Do not buy. You are guaranteed to be sorry. Spend you money on a different brand. Would be a great pot if they kept working. I am tempted to send it back in pieces to keurig I am so frustrated with this. The longest one worked good for me for about 3 months. | 14 | [

1 | JUNK | How anyone can rate this as a good radio is beyond me! There is no channel that this can receive! Tuner is well below sub-par! If you can actually get a channel in tune it will not be for long! How a simple variable capacitor tuner could be so bad is remarkable! They've been producing this type of tuner for nearly 100 years now; leave it to SONY to screw it up. I've disliked SONY for some time and was reluctant to get this but it was cheap. BUT NOW... I'll NEVER buy ANYTHING SONY again regardless of the cost! Put your money in something else. A tuning fork would get better reception than this! | 11 | [

1 | Asprin isn't bad enough | You can find out what Phule's Company is about on the back of the book. The only problem is, you'd be wrong. The plot summary suggests one thing: a ragtag, incompetent, and recklessly dangerous band of military misfits pull together to somehow save the human race. What's inside the book is quite different. Far from being the scum of the galaxy, the characters are nice and polite to excess. Far from being a wild action-adventure, the plot involves mostly drills and chit chat.I think what went wrong is this. Robert Asprin is too serious to be funny and too nice to be nasty. "Phule's Company" is not really funny. The jokes are few and they fall flat every time. There's not a single real laugh in here. Asprin likes Phule and his crew too much to really mock them. As for plot, there's no there there. We can't really cheer for the characters because they have so little to overcome. The criminals, cut-throats, and losers would be the goody-goodies in any other novel. | 14 | [

1 | Weak plot, characterizations. I still liked it. | I believe the reason romances get such a bad wrap is because of plot, characterization weaknesses. I felt like the author had something else to do and wanted to finish the story as soon as possible to get to it! The plot could have been so much more flushed out, and therfore, more enjoyable.

2 | Mario Party RPG should be the name | This is'nt Mario Party. This is an Adventure game with dumb quests,for example: OH god! Mario,can you help me find my girlfriend? Or Luigi,could you take this ticket to the station? Some quests are fun. But why are'nt you trying to get stars with other friends? What I hate most is that you don't have unlimited rolls! Gadgets was a bad idea. The mini games are OK and so are the new feartures. But why is this game a 4 star instead of 1? Because it's flooded with gamplay. You will get addicted to the minigames fast. Overall,if you love the original Mario Party,you are not gonna have much fun with this game. | 13 | [

1 | Hell's Bells #3 | Most soundscape recordings are of a time & place, an environment for listening based on local ambience. Steven Feld's three bell CDs are different -- each one is a series of sound effects recordings tied together by only one theme -- bells.There are church bells. There are herds of sheep wearing bells. There are bells on clothing. Ceremonial bells. Musical bells. Cow bells. Bells on trucks. Windchime bells. And not just short samples either, most of the recordings are 8-11 minutes.These are the kind of recordings a person into sampling might buy, or a person making a movie soundtrack. They're not even remotely usable as CDs you might listen to for enjoyment. | 11 | [

2 | good, touching, filled with facts | Many books about Auschwitz are filled with dry narrations. It seems like people are afraid to talk about the subject, like they have the need to be politically correct or not to hurt anyone. I understand why but if you decide to write a book about subject do a good job regardless of the circumstances. This book relates the facts and everyday life in the camp the way it was. An author shares his feelings and thoughts. He describes behaviors (sometimes worse than barbaric) and survival instinct in the purest basic form. I liked this book. It is written well and it keeps reader at full attention. Chapters and story line flows smoothly. It's a book that describes harsh reality of the concentration camp that I wish no one every would have to go through again. If you liked this book there is also a similar one written by Dr. Perl called "I was a doctor in Auschwitz". Dr. Perl was a woman that went through the same thing as Muller but in the female part of the camp. | 12 | [

1 | DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRINTER! POOR REPAIR SERVICE! | I bought the printer 6 months ago and after a few months of great pictures there was a white line that developed on thepictures. I had a 1 year warranty to get it repaired and so I sent it to the Olympus Repair Service via mail in great condition. It only had an internal problem. A few weeks laterthe repair center sent me a letter stating that the product's mode dial was broken off, the front CVR cracked, the front door cracked, back cover broken, dented in back. That was completely wrong! It was in fair condtion when the printer was sent there to NY to have it repaired. I rate their service zero stars! I recommend not to buy this product. It was a simple repair that turned into a nightmare. It costed $230.00 to get it repaired. I spent $299.99 for that printer. The company Olympus is a rip-off!I wouldn't buy there products! 1 year warranty! That is so untrue! | 14 | [

1 | Do not buy this toaster | Amazon has been a great source for many books I have needed for my sewing classes. I purchsed this toaster thru Amazon on 9/11/10 . Item was shipped from Edison NJ, via Abe's of Maine. We are not happy. Thought this would be a beautiful gift for my daughter's family with two teen agers, BUT we are very unhappy with its performance. Toasts uneven --brown on one end and almost burnt on the other. We are unable to regulate the degree of toasting and its bagel performance is not good. Tried to e-mail Haier/ Abe's of Maine and got no response, phone calls and messages not answered. Customer service very poor. Will never buy from them again. Do not wish to pay return shipping and am stuck with poor product. Want very much to purchase an Oster 6330 to replace bad toaster. Who do I go to for help.?????? Assume that I must rely upon Amazon for further assistance. Please help my solve my problem. A new toaster would make a great Christmas gift.Carolyn Steenson Dallas Ga | 16 | [

2 | This book is TOTALLY OUTRAGEOUS!! | This book is great because it has lots of details and great drawings. It tells about how Amelia feels and talks about what is happening in her life. Amelia is a girl that moved to her new house and goes to a new school and misses her best friend Nadia. She's a girl who has a hard time meeting new teachers and students. That is how I know if she has problems in her life. This book is about what had happened in her girl culture. This book made me feel like laughing when it talked about Cleo picking her nose and not eating properly. This book made me sad when she didn't meet any friends and it also made me sad when she didn't like her new house. I understand her because when I first went to my new house I didn't like my house that much either. This book is a blast so you should buy the book and see what happens. I would highly, I mean HIGHLY recommend this book. | 11 | [

1 | Very....very bad | This movie is bad. very bad. I think the problem was they started the movie and didn't know how to end it. You keep waiting thinking something exciting is going to happen but nothing ever does. This is the plot. A young girl is savagely raped and murdered. They find a retarded suspect (Benicio del Toro), and after his confesses, he commits suicide. Until there the movie is good. Retired Detective Jerry Black (Jack Nicholson) instantly thinks something is wrong, and he goes on the search. Then the movie goes off. Nothing else happens. You keep thinking something will happen, but nothing ever does. The ending is awful. Sean Penn had the knowledge and resources and a good story to make a good movie, but instead he makes an awful movie. The movie is slow. At the end we really don't know who murdered that girl, we get sort of an idea, but nothing for sure. If you are looking for a suspenseful thriller that will keep you entertained, do not see this movie. I expected something good. | 18 | [

1 | I didn't find it any very fun... | Graphics/Interface/Sound all okay. But my biggest gripe is the lack of anything interesting to do. You kill a few creatures roaming around, gain some xp, visit one of 21 "vaults" or dungeons (i visited 4 and they seemed standard in layout -- 1-2 creature types roaming around, and 1 boss creature type). The towns are all ruins (with horrible popup on my poor system). Most social activity seems to be gathering in one of these ruins and playing your instruments. There's no trading; more just giving out old things you don't need anymore, and the only use for gold is to "gamble" up a short term enchantment on yourself. In other words, no economy. Crafting items seems even more tedious than leveling up. People who played FFX on PS2, remember "capturing" creatures 5 times each? Sorta reminded me of that. Just didn't live up to my expectation of a 2nd gen MMORPG. | 11 | [

1 | A dud from Deighton!? | A clumsy story by one of my favorite authors. Pitchers, quarterbacks, and point guards all lose their extraordinary skills, or at least have bad days, so why not writers? Any "Rockford Files" script gives us a better exasperated L.A. anti-hero than this Mickey Murphy stereotype. The minor characters in _Violent Ward_ are almost as cartoonish. (And what's with the title? It's pretty bad when the blurb has to try to explain it.)Deighton's over-detailed descriptions of clothing remind me of a Nancy Drew novel. But the worst part of reading _Ward_ is the feeling I get that this is a British writer pretending he's a lifelong American. Britishisms such as "rang off" instead of hung up and "ramp" instead of driveway reinforce this irritating dent to the story's credibility.Other critics ask, Well, what's a spy novelist to do now that the Cold War is over? Hello-oh. . . China, Iraq, Japanese industrial espionage? I'll ring off now. | 14 | [

1 | Did Denise Austin star on Saturday Night Live (SNL) or what? | Denise Austin's constant babble, babble, and more babble (i.e., burn that butter! Yeah! Yeah!) and SNL mannerism are similar to a kickboxing parody on a late night show. I did not know when to workout or just sit and laugh. I eventually decided to donate this to my local library because I couldn't concentrate even in the slightest. Also, the fitness crew in the video are a bit annoying to watch. There are too many people in a small area and their performance and effort are disappointing (making them look participatory in this "parody"). The title could be changed to "Denise Austin's Power Jumping Jacks" because of the excessive usage of jumping jacks over kicks. I actually went to the market to buy Kathy Smith's Kickboxing tape but it sold out and in desparation I decided to buy this. Pass on this tape and save your money, unless you would like to watch a kickboxing parady then this is the one for you. | 11 | [

2 | AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! | What can I say about this release. Plenty. I was in the second row in front of Lifeson. I have seen Rush numerous times since 1984's Grace Under Pressure concert and this was Rush at their finest. Not only was the band in top form but the crowd was pumped as well. There was plenty of energy in the air at this show. Cleveland was a great host for Rush to record their first American concert film. Cheers to the city; Boos to the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of F(Sh)ame. Buy this concert, you WILL NOT be disappointed. I also saw them play at Shoreline Amphitheater in Mt. View, CA earlier in the tour. Oh, yeah I almost forgot- Moving Pictures performed in its entirety. Whoo-hoo. | 13 | [

But then to find out they leak after about 5 to 6 months of use it is just wrong. I followed the instructions on care and cleaning and no where does it mention leaking or having to replace parts. I found out about the replacement parts after calling Playtex. I was told the replacement silcone is only .50 cents. I told customer service cost is not the point. I want a reliable product. If I had known in advance they would leak and I would need to call and order replacement parts I would have never purchased this product. I believe Playtex should put in their instructions replace of parts is needed. Then the choice is yours. | 12 | [

1 | horrible | I have several compaints about this product:1. I had a canker sore on my lower gums beneath my teeth. The canker cover is in the shape of a pill that is too big to fit properly in this space. They really should come in different sizes.2. I got it in there as best I could and waited for it to dissolve. It did dissolve after some discomfort and worked effectively to block pain for a while. However, after 24 hours, it was still there and had turned into a disgusting gummy mess (the package says it will dissolve after 8-12 hours). I tried to swab some of the goop out with a q-tip and I think it disolved the skin on the inside of my lip because it TOOK THE SKIN WITH IT. So, not only do I have a canker sore on my gums, now the inside of my lip is raw and bleeding.3. The package says you should not try to remove it. Are you supposed to leave it there for eternity?? The stuff in my mouth was there for 24 hours between my lower gum and lip, so it wasn't getting washed away at all.AVOID this product! | 12 | [

1 | Not worth even $1.00 | This book is just plain bad. Anatomical errors abound, which is unforgivable since the main character is a NEUROLIGIST! I tried to read this book four times.

But this so called genius does not even put in place the most rudimentery home safety featrues: which you would think she would do after Toyer contacts her. Also, where in the world are the police?

1 | What would Jesus Do? | There are good ideas in this book. Unfortunately, there are also such poisonous and dangerously misguided ones that will appeal to peoples baser natures under the guise of 'guidance' and 'discipline'. Let me ask you, as a parent -- do you feel in your heart that God wants you to beat your children if they misbehave (according to your standards)? Leave the misappropriated segments of the Bible out of the discussion. Leave out the part where the Old Testament is used to shore up ideas that Jesus told us were unworkable in the New Testament. Leave out that these people who pretend to preach are in fact using your belief as a money-making vehicle for themselves. Ask yourself -- is hitting your child in your best interest? Is it in his or hers? Is command and control the only way you can 'train' your child, or could you possibly have been snookered into thinking violence is love? There are good ideas in this book. There are many, many bad ideas. | 11 | [

2 | good solid buy | This treadmill is very well built, the base is very heavy but with a dolly, one person can assemble it. The running track is a bit narrow but not too bad. I'm 5'10/190 and a flat footed runner and it works ok. The bolts could be a tad bit longer to ease installation. It has very easy to read controls and display. The display could have had more features easily with an added "mode" button to the console instead of flashing the calories/speed back and forth. Be sure you screw the bolts tight as mine came off this morning while running but I fixed it. (bolt was a bit too short with the spacer so i had to bend the bracket over. One of my console bolt holes wouldn't line up right so i just left it out.(each side has 2 screws and 1 bolt). Overall, a very solidly built machine at a good price. | 11 | [

1 | Failure after 6 months | This seemed like a nice drive when I bought it. Compact, quiet, no external power brick required. And although I only used it a handful of times, it always worked fine. But now, after about 6 months, it no longer shows up in Windows after I plug it in. It makes repeated periodic clicking noises, so I'm guessing the hard drive has failed. But WD's website is quite useless for troubleshooting. And I tried to send them an email through their support system, but their system is so confusing I'm not sure if it worked or not. They have a support number, but will charge for the service. And do I really want to spend 20 dollars for them to tell me to send in the drive, so that they can diagnose and repair it? Upfront costs, + shipping, +diagnosis, + repair, = more than I paid for it in the first place. I don't expect any company to stand behind their products forever, but I would like to get more than half a years life out of a "backup" hard drive. | 11 | [

1 | What happened? | First of all, i really like Rk, but this ending was weak. After the Kyoto arc, the series bombed out. When i finished watching the last episode, i said, "what?! that's it. what kind of ending is that???" They don't even tell you what happens to the characters and whether or not Kauru and Kenshin ever get together. that really made me mad. i would suggest viewers buy the kyoto arc and finish there. it would be a waste of perfectly good money to by these last episodes. just rent them or something....you'll regret buying these unless you are an upmost devoted RK fan. Overall it was very diappointing watching my favorite series end this way. | 11 | [

1 | CAUTION: NO SUPPORT FROM NEC; NO DRIVERS, NO INK | UPDATE: I bought this a long time ago when it was a current model. Excellent. 5 stars. NOW, however, NEC has been out of this business for many years and no longer creates drivers for modern operating systems NOR do they sell ink cartridges for this model. I tried one third party ink cartridge replacement and it did not work. SO ALAS, I need to change 5 stars to one star. This is just not the right time to buy this printer unless you print only occasionally and don't plan to upgrade your operating system. Sigh. Nice product!ORIGINAL REVIEW 5 STAR: Works great, high quality output: Well, for a basic laser printer, this is a really nice piece. Quiet, reliable, very professional business-quality print. I wish it offered double sided printing and did copying, etc, but that cost a lot more in laser printer. You can get it for not a lot of money in ink-jet, and I'll probably buy that as a draft printer. | 12 | [

2 | pretty Spongeriffic | Okay, here's what I have to say. If you like spongebob, and you find the songs from the show amusing....you'll want this. It's cute. Mine came with a big spongebob sticker inside as well. However, this cd is only 8 dollars, and here's the reason why. It's a very short cd. It's only about 9 minutes long. I liked it, but I wanted more for my money. And I KNOW there are more spongebob songs now! Hopefully nickelodeon will make a fuller compilation. But, its neat if you need background for a spongebob party for your kids, etc! =) | 12 | [

2 | Main character isn't perfect, but still a great read | Mira, Mirror is basically the story of Snow White in the eyes of the mirror. Except that it happens over a hundred years after Snow White kills the evil witch. Now the mirror goes on a quest to become human again (oh. Did I mention she was the evil queen's sister?).I was reading some of the reviews on goodreads and saw that not many people liked this book, chiefly because they were bothered by the main character, the mirror. I was too. But only because I want people to be good. Always and from the begining. And the mirror wasn't. She had to manipulate people to get around (and who could blame her?). But she developed into a very love-able character.I don't know what it is about twisted fairy tales, but I love `em. | 11 | [
