1	Not Progressive Rock - don't be fooled	I have been exposed to Dream Theatre via Transatlantic and Keith Emerson's opinions on Jordan Rudess. Saw them back up ELP in 1998 (Forgetable). I am a long time Progressive rock fan, ELP, Yes, Genesis, KC, Marillion, you name it. This is not and I repeat NOT progressive rock. It is just Metal and nothing else. I was so disappointed when purchasing this album, so much so that this is the first review of any album I have ever bought (over 400). Anyone who calls this or anything by this band progressive should be shot. Metal is not progressive. I loved the work Portnoy did with Transatlantic and I am not denying the incredible musicianship of Dream Theatre, but this is metal and nothing but. A waste of money for any progressive rock fan. I rate this album 2 stars only because there are great musicians at work(?)here.	12	[ "I have been exposed to Dream Theatre via Transatlantic and Keith Emerson's opinions on Jordan Rudess.", "Saw them back up ELP in 1998 (Forgetable).", "I am a long time Progressive rock fan, ELP, Yes, Genesis, KC, Marillion, you name it.", "This is not and I repeat NOT progressive rock.", "It is just Metal and nothing else.", "I was so disappointed when purchasing this album, so much so that this is the first review of any album I have ever bought (over 400).", "Anyone who calls this or anything by this band progressive should be shot.", "Metal is not progressive.", "I loved the work Portnoy did with Transatlantic and I am not denying the incredible musicianship of Dream Theatre, but this is metal and nothing but.", "A waste of money for any progressive rock fan.", "I rate this album 2 stars only because there are great musicians at work(?", ")here." ]
2	Great read - a big step in the right direction!	Morin never seems to call the erotic mind into question from a position in which morality is suspended. Morality is needed to create the block that fuels arousal by hampering the attraction between two or more people. Could Morin's erotic mind survive in an amoral context? He does an excellent job of presenting the dynamics of the erotic self and then seems to compassionately acquiesce to its logic. Even his quest for a more healthy eroticism seems to fly in the face of his own logic that would seem to suggest that the erotic mind is incurably and inherently pathological. Morin's erotic self tends to be the Cartesian mind who inhabits but is never the body ego. What the body needs over and against what the person desires never seems to get adequately sorted out let alone addressed. However don't get me wrong. I'd recommend this book without hesitation. It has helped me immensely. It is a big step in the right direction.	11	[ "Morin never seems to call the erotic mind into question from a position in which morality is suspended.", "Morality is needed to create the block that fuels arousal by hampering the attraction between two or more people.", "Could Morin's erotic mind survive in an amoral context?", "He does an excellent job of presenting the dynamics of the erotic self and then seems to compassionately acquiesce to its logic.", "Even his quest for a more healthy eroticism seems to fly in the face of his own logic that would seem to suggest that the erotic mind is incurably and inherently pathological.", "Morin's erotic self tends to be the Cartesian mind who inhabits but is never the body ego.", "What the body needs over and against what the person desires never seems to get adequately sorted out let alone addressed.", "However don't get me wrong.", "I'd recommend this book without hesitation.", "It has helped me immensely.", "It is a big step in the right direction." ]
2	Beautiful Dress, Quality Materials, Fast Shipping	The dress is absolutely adorable. I ordered this dress along with a back-up,(strapless satin tulle prom dress with black lace trim) from this company, as a destination wedding dress. I placed my order late Thursday night and received both in the mail the following Monday...proof that in-stock items are shipped out ASAP. The quality of work/material is very nice on both styles. (thick satin, fully lined, no flaws)I didn't notice if they stated in the description, but the dresses are made in USA. Also, I am very pleased with the fit. If you are unsure or uneasy about ordering a size, go by the size chart measurements. They are completely accurate. It is hard to tell about the length in the pics, I am 5'4" and the dress falls mid-calf, tea-length. I am very pleased with both dress' styles, prices, and the company. I definitely recommend ordering items from Pacifiplex.	11	[ "The dress is absolutely adorable.", "I ordered this dress along with a back-up,(strapless satin tulle prom dress with black lace trim) from this company, as a destination wedding dress.", "I placed my order late Thursday night and received both in the mail the following Monday...proof that in-stock items are shipped out ASAP.", "The quality of work/material is very nice on both styles.", "(thick satin, fully lined, no flaws)I didn't notice if they stated in the description, but the dresses are made in USA.", "Also, I am very pleased with the fit.", "If you are unsure or uneasy about ordering a size, go by the size chart measurements.", "They are completely accurate.", "It is hard to tell about the length in the pics, I am 5'4\" and the dress falls mid-calf, tea-length.", "I am very pleased with both dress' styles, prices, and the company.", "I definitely recommend ordering items from Pacifiplex." ]
2	Hi!!	Hello my Friends;This is the place wherin I was given an opportunity to communicate. I am forever grateful for that. Although the surface of things seems to indicate that there is universal communication between folks on the Internet, that is not so. I live in Evanston, Wyoming, in the USA. Needless to say,I don't completely agree with the policies of this very powerful country. Can you folks give me any insight as to what may be happening in the way of steering this wonderful planet to a society wherin people have enough to be what they might want to be, and to be able to express that particular being to people who might find value in that expression. There isn't a whole lot of information in this area where I am now. Fortunately, I live in a little-populated area of this country and can easily avoid, "Authorites," if need be. Needless to say (??) this doesn't occur in this Nation, but nevertheless, that's the way of things. I am at Your service; Dean L. Corlett	11	[ "Hello my Friends;This is the place wherin I was given an opportunity to communicate.", "I am forever grateful for that.", "Although the surface of things seems to indicate that there is universal communication between folks on the Internet, that is not so.", "I live in Evanston, Wyoming, in the USA.", "Needless to say,I don't completely agree with the policies of this very powerful country.", "Can you folks give me any insight as to what may be happening in the way of steering this wonderful planet to a society wherin people have enough to be what they might want to be, and to be able to express that particular being to people who might find value in that expression.", "There isn't a whole lot of information in this area where I am now.", "Fortunately, I live in a little-populated area of this country and can easily avoid, \"Authorites,\" if need be.", "Needless to say (??", ") this doesn't occur in this Nation, but nevertheless, that's the way of things.", "I am at Your service; Dean L.", "Corlett" ]
2	Wake Up, America	I l-o-v-e-d this book. So did the friend I recommneded it to. Ames does not overreach. The plot is compact. The language is superb. The ending works. I laughed out loud a number of times and when I finished I groped around for anything else Ames had written and read that. The other stuff was good; this is his best so far. Something about his brand of humor hit me right in the funny bone. Another novel that struck me the same way was Michael Frayn's Headlong. Both are two of the best comic novels I've ever read, and I read a lot.I can't wait until Ames comes out with his next novel. It's been awhile!	12	[ "I l-o-v-e-d this book.", "So did the friend I recommneded it to.", "Ames does not overreach.", "The plot is compact.", "The language is superb.", "The ending works.", "I laughed out loud a number of times and when I finished I groped around for anything else Ames had written and read that.", "The other stuff was good; this is his best so far.", "Something about his brand of humor hit me right in the funny bone.", "Another novel that struck me the same way was Michael Frayn's Headlong.", "Both are two of the best comic novels I've ever read, and I read a lot.I can't wait until Ames comes out with his next novel.", "It's been awhile!" ]
1	ITS A GOOD GAME FOR ADULTS	I must say for a Kid this is not a game for them. Like all rockstar games there for the Adults. Its got very bad language in it. Everything from a person trying to Rape a girl and all that. I must say all and all this game sucks. I was a fan of the Movie and rented this game. I got it played the tutorial and then it got down to the game. It was all and all Bad with Play bad the camera gets lost at times with you losing your player, then you have the Bad moral behind the game. F-word used to much. Sex offered to much. This day and age has brought out the worste in people. I had Pacman growing up he ate dots and ghosts now the kids are playing games where they go out and steal and kill people gives a great understanding to LIFE.---------------------DONT BUY-------------------------------------------------BAD LANGUAGE, BAD BEHAVIOR, YOU NAME ITS GOT -------	12	[ "I must say for a Kid this is not a game for them.", "Like all rockstar games there for the Adults.", "Its got very bad language in it.", "Everything from a person trying to Rape a girl and all that.", "I must say all and all this game sucks.", "I was a fan of the Movie and rented this game.", "I got it played the tutorial and then it got down to the game.", "It was all and all Bad with Play bad the camera gets lost at times with you losing your player, then you have the Bad moral behind the game.", "F-word used to much.", "Sex offered to much.", "This day and age has brought out the worste in people.", "I had Pacman growing up he ate dots and ghosts now the kids are playing games where they go out and steal and kill people gives a great understanding to LIFE.---------------------DONT BUY-------------------------------------------------BAD LANGUAGE, BAD BEHAVIOR, YOU NAME ITS GOT -------" ]
1	Lipstick on a pig	We have had two of these coffee makers. The first died a year after purchase. I wrote to them, and they replaced it. The replacement was obviously a reconditioned unit (or possibly a return) as it was poorly packaged. We have had the same issues that other reviewers have noted...leaking, slow brewing. One thing that we find VERY irritating is the beeping. It beeps 3 times when it's done brewing. It beeps when it shuts off. It beeps when it's done cleaning. All of the beeping is annoying! Trust me when I say it WILL wake up the whole house! The adjustable warmer is worthless. We don't want warm coffee, and even on the hottest setting, we have to nuke each cup. If you want a pretty coffee maker, this is pretty. If you want a reliable coffee maker that makes hot coffee, quickly and cleanly, don't buy this one.	15	[ "We have had two of these coffee makers.", "The first died a year after purchase.", "I wrote to them, and they replaced it.", "The replacement was obviously a reconditioned unit (or possibly a return) as it was poorly packaged.", "We have had the same issues that other reviewers have noted...leaking, slow brewing.", "One thing that we find VERY irritating is the beeping.", "It beeps 3 times when it's done brewing.", "It beeps when it shuts off.", "It beeps when it's done cleaning.", "All of the beeping is annoying!", "Trust me when I say it WILL wake up the whole house!", "The adjustable warmer is worthless.", "We don't want warm coffee, and even on the hottest setting, we have to nuke each cup.", "If you want a pretty coffee maker, this is pretty.", "If you want a reliable coffee maker that makes hot coffee, quickly and cleanly, don't buy this one." ]
1	Go with KitchenAid!!	My first mixer is a KitchenAid. I have used it for 3 years and it is a work horse. I bake constantly and I have never had any problems. When I first moved, I did not have my mixer with me so I bought the Sunbeam Heritage to get me by. What a disappointment! You have to fiddle with the release to get the head to lift and it only works about 1/2 the time. The mixers do NOT mix in the ingredients on the sides of the bowl. Be prepared for your ingredients to fly all over the room (I am still cleaning up cookie dough!) and after all that? I still ended up mixing my cookies by hand to get them mixed! I am so happy to have my KitchenAid and will never settle for less!	11	[ "My first mixer is a KitchenAid.", "I have used it for 3 years and it is a work horse.", "I bake constantly and I have never had any problems.", "When I first moved, I did not have my mixer with me so I bought the Sunbeam Heritage to get me by.", "What a disappointment!", "You have to fiddle with the release to get the head to lift and it only works about 1/2 the time.", "The mixers do NOT mix in the ingredients on the sides of the bowl.", "Be prepared for your ingredients to fly all over the room (I am still cleaning up cookie dough!", ") and after all that?", "I still ended up mixing my cookies by hand to get them mixed!", "I am so happy to have my KitchenAid and will never settle for less!" ]
2	The most incredible thing I have EVER seen!	Wow! Words cannot describe just how good FEET OF FLAMES is! Basically its a rehash of his LOTD show with added bells, whistles and more besides! Fantastic! Stunning! Again! Again! More!!!! The production and camerawork is much better this time, it has the look and feel of a glitzy hollywood epic. Michaels dancing is superb...watch the final solo Feet of Flames if you dont beleive me. Wow! What a video! Buy it!

2	Great Prints!	I create Photo Sculptures (www.samissculptures.com) using a high end printer and laminated the photo seperately. I saw a photo printed with a dye-sub printer and knew my company had to have one. Although Kodak is no longer making this printer, I took the chance on the purchase. I'm glad I did. The quality of the print is extremely good. The only disappointment I have with this printer is the dust covers on the front and specifically the one on the back fall off easily. The only other complaint I have is the high cost of the ribbons and paper. It will cost you approx. $2.00 to print 1, 8 x 10 print. I would love to beg Kodak to bring back these lower cost dye sub printers. The newer ones are way to expensive for the average user.	11	[ "I create Photo Sculptures (www.samissculptures.com) using a high end printer and laminated the photo seperately.", "I saw a photo printed with a dye-sub printer and knew my company had to have one.", "Although Kodak is no longer making this printer, I took the chance on the purchase.", "I'm glad I did.", "The quality of the print is extremely good.", "The only disappointment I have with this printer is the dust covers on the front and specifically the one on the back fall off easily.", "The only other complaint I have is the high cost of the ribbons and paper.", "It will cost you approx.", "$2.00 to print 1, 8 x 10 print.", "I would love to beg Kodak to bring back these lower cost dye sub printers.", "The newer ones are way to expensive for the average user." ]
1	An utter disappointment	Take it from one of the original frogger fanatics -- the retro level is not even close. They tried adding more detailed graphics, and ended up completely slowing down and destroying the game. You're not even allowed to see the entire playing field, only the next few jumps. All this for more detailed bumps on logs. Ridiculous. It's also hard for me to understand how the play can be so disastrously jerky when computers must be at least what? 1000 times faster than 20 years ago? Even the typeface is completely unreadable. What a shame.(To top it all off, the highly paid professionals that just plain ruined this game seem to have spent most of their development time on frog fornication graphics. Embarassing and juvenile, but not particularly appropriate for an 8 year old.)	11	[ "Take it from one of the original frogger fanatics -- the retro level is not even close.", "They tried adding more detailed graphics, and ended up completely slowing down and destroying the game.", "You're not even allowed to see the entire playing field, only the next few jumps.", "All this for more detailed bumps on logs.", "Ridiculous.", "It's also hard for me to understand how the play can be so disastrously jerky when computers must be at least what?", "1000 times faster than 20 years ago?", "Even the typeface is completely unreadable.", "What a shame.(To top it all off, the highly paid professionals that just plain ruined this game seem to have spent most of their development time on frog fornication graphics.", "Embarassing and juvenile, but not particularly appropriate for an 8 year old.)" ]
1	Not a good read from a usually great writer	I have been a Tarr fan since I was about 14 years old. I have read most of her fantasy series and her historical novels. So when I saw this one, I grabbed it. Sadly, this book is very dissappointing. It is so lacking in freshness and originality that I was bored to senselessness. I found myself skipping pages and pages in this book. It felt like it would never end. And by the way, skipping those pages did not detract from this slow moving tale at all. The characters are all people you have met before in other of her works and better portrayed. It is hard to say exactly what is it that makes this book so poor except to say that in reading it you definately have a feeling of "been there, done that". I felt as if the author was sleep walking thru this one-- doing it to satisfy a contract or something. If you are a Tarr fan, this is one book that you can skip. I have faith that she will be better next time.	13	[ "I have been a Tarr fan since I was about 14 years old.", "I have read most of her fantasy series and her historical novels.", "So when I saw this one, I grabbed it.", "Sadly, this book is very dissappointing.", "It is so lacking in freshness and originality that I was bored to senselessness.", "I found myself skipping pages and pages in this book.", "It felt like it would never end.", "And by the way, skipping those pages did not detract from this slow moving tale at all.", "The characters are all people you have met before in other of her works and better portrayed.", "It is hard to say exactly what is it that makes this book so poor except to say that in reading it you definately have a feeling of \"been there, done that\".", "I felt as if the author was sleep walking thru this one-- doing it to satisfy a contract or something.", "If you are a Tarr fan, this is one book that you can skip.", "I have faith that she will be better next time." ]
2	Excellent!	This was a definite thumbs up! It's about a girl, Molly, who's had a nightmare for as long as she can remember. Ever since she started being forced to take swimming lessons, it's intensified. You see, she has a phobia of water. And it's made worse when Jared tries to drown her at a party. She flees to Hibben, Maine, to escape Jared, and there, in her father's new house with his new wife, Paulette, she notices the house is exactly like the one in her dreams. Paulette suggests that recurring dreams mean something, as does her fear of water. And Molly is thrust eighty years back in time to the life of Clementine, a girl who lived at that house in 1912...This was a very exciting, enthralling book. While hefty at 340 pages, it is fast-paced and it ends quickly and will leave you satisfied. For those looking for a supernatural mystery, definitely think about picking this one up. You won't regret it.Happy reading!	11	[ "This was a definite thumbs up!", "It's about a girl, Molly, who's had a nightmare for as long as she can remember.", "Ever since she started being forced to take swimming lessons, it's intensified.", "You see, she has a phobia of water.", "And it's made worse when Jared tries to drown her at a party.", "She flees to Hibben, Maine, to escape Jared, and there, in her father's new house with his new wife, Paulette, she notices the house is exactly like the one in her dreams.", "Paulette suggests that recurring dreams mean something, as does her fear of water.", "And Molly is thrust eighty years back in time to the life of Clementine, a girl who lived at that house in 1912...This was a very exciting, enthralling book.", "While hefty at 340 pages, it is fast-paced and it ends quickly and will leave you satisfied.", "For those looking for a supernatural mystery, definitely think about picking this one up.", "You won't regret it.Happy reading!" ]
1	oooops, not so great	Replaced my trusty and cheap ($39) Hamilton Beach food processor with this. Expected splendid quality. Oh, HAHA. The safety feature is a show stopper (yes, I need to use the feed tube with the processor running). Sometimes it was near impossible to get the top on, or the large tube back into the top. Then the stinker broke, sort of, the safety feature no longer worked, and I couldn't get the work bowl off the base. We won't even mention how very large and HEAVY the base is. Nor mention that it only has one speed, which is too slow to really mince stuff well without grinding it to powder. So, my husband finally figured out what was wrong. The $46 work bowl part of the safety feature was broken. So, for slightly more than the price of a new Hamilton Beach unit, I can replace the work bowl. Hooray for Cuisinart. Sucked me in with their myth about quality.	13	[ "Replaced my trusty and cheap ($39) Hamilton Beach food processor with this.", "Expected splendid quality.", "Oh, HAHA.", "The safety feature is a show stopper (yes, I need to use the feed tube with the processor running).", "Sometimes it was near impossible to get the top on, or the large tube back into the top.", "Then the stinker broke, sort of, the safety feature no longer worked, and I couldn't get the work bowl off the base.", "We won't even mention how very large and HEAVY the base is.", "Nor mention that it only has one speed, which is too slow to really mince stuff well without grinding it to powder.", "So, my husband finally figured out what was wrong.", "The $46 work bowl part of the safety feature was broken.", "So, for slightly more than the price of a new Hamilton Beach unit, I can replace the work bowl.", "Hooray for Cuisinart.", "Sucked me in with their myth about quality." ]
1	Small sound, no base but nice and portable	I received this as a gift for my baby's room. I wanted a small speaker system to play music from my ipod in my nursery. The item is nice and small and would travel really easy. It has a nice travel pouch, etc. The plug in the back started falling out day one and looked like it would easily get bent over time. The plug, which is jump rope length, wont fit into the travel bag. MAINLY....the problem is that the sound is like a very old clock radio that has had its speakers blown out. I don't even want to use it for the very small purpose I had planned. I ventured out to Frys today with my ipod and listened to several other small ipod docking speaker systems. There are SO many that have better sound, remotes, small size and other features like clock or AM/FM that I am returning this ASAP. Too bad Im going to be charged a restocking fee by the company amazon contracted through because the speakers are bad!	11	[ "I received this as a gift for my baby's room.", "I wanted a small speaker system to play music from my ipod in my nursery.", "The item is nice and small and would travel really easy.", "It has a nice travel pouch, etc.", "The plug in the back started falling out day one and looked like it would easily get bent over time.", "The plug, which is jump rope length, wont fit into the travel bag.", "MAINLY....the problem is that the sound is like a very old clock radio that has had its speakers blown out.", "I don't even want to use it for the very small purpose I had planned.", "I ventured out to Frys today with my ipod and listened to several other small ipod docking speaker systems.", "There are SO many that have better sound, remotes, small size and other features like clock or AM/FM that I am returning this ASAP.", "Too bad Im going to be charged a restocking fee by the company amazon contracted through because the speakers are bad!" ]
1	The same old material rehashed as another pointless book	T.A. Barron has essentially taken the creativity of others and rehashed it for his own publicity. T.A. Barron continues to pump out the same horrible material over and over again in all of his books. His writing is pretentious and full of "nature" analogies that could be pumped out by a five year old.Check out a YouTube video of T.A. Barron. He's a self-centered pretentious narcissist.

1	Archewriting	Jacques Derrida is the "other" of reason. Actually, he's an inverted Kantian, nothing more. This is the sort of text his alterity-stricken fan club gets excited about. Its conversational style gives the impression that deep insights are waved at because they just never show up. The reader is made to feel that he missed something. And then the game is lost. Intangibility becomes intrinscially virtuous, and so the reader forgives the great Derrida's omissions, who is relieved of the responsibility of answering his own questions. Don't be fooled. He can't answer those questions because the special discourse he reserves for himself prohibits him from doing so in principle. That's the oldest con in the book. Derrida is the "other" of reason.	11	[ "Jacques Derrida is the \"other\" of reason.", "Actually, he's an inverted Kantian, nothing more.", "This is the sort of text his alterity-stricken fan club gets excited about.", "Its conversational style gives the impression that deep insights are waved at because they just never show up.", "The reader is made to feel that he missed something.", "And then the game is lost.", "Intangibility becomes intrinscially virtuous, and so the reader forgives the great Derrida's omissions, who is relieved of the responsibility of answering his own questions.", "Don't be fooled.", "He can't answer those questions because the special discourse he reserves for himself prohibits him from doing so in principle.", "That's the oldest con in the book.", "Derrida is the \"other\" of reason." ]
1	A Guest Not so Distinguished As You Might Think.	I found this book quite disappointing. It is about an elderly woman named Lily Maynard and her family. Or what is left of it. She is a divorced mother of three children, technically, although one has sort of disappeared (and the more you read the more you think you might have done the same). Miller highlights Lily's shining moments as an author and the fame and popularity her talents have found. Her son, Alan, takes her in temporarily until there is room for her at the nursing home. She is somewhat unbearable, although, that was not the real problem with this novel. For some reason, unlike Miller's other works, it was just really super boring. I kept reminding myself not to walk away without finishing it. Without at least giving it that much of a chance. At the end, instead of feeling like it was a good book after all, I was just glad I had finished it. Not the worst but certainly not the best.	12	[ "I found this book quite disappointing.", "It is about an elderly woman named Lily Maynard and her family.", "Or what is left of it.", "She is a divorced mother of three children, technically, although one has sort of disappeared (and the more you read the more you think you might have done the same).", "Miller highlights Lily's shining moments as an author and the fame and popularity her talents have found.", "Her son, Alan, takes her in temporarily until there is room for her at the nursing home.", "She is somewhat unbearable, although, that was not the real problem with this novel.", "For some reason, unlike Miller's other works, it was just really super boring.", "I kept reminding myself not to walk away without finishing it.", "Without at least giving it that much of a chance.", "At the end, instead of feeling like it was a good book after all, I was just glad I had finished it.", "Not the worst but certainly not the best." ]
1	Now this was a remake that didn't cut it...	Trust me when I say that I am a true fan of anything that includes Jason Voorhees. It's true, he's even my background on my computer! But when I saw this, I just couldn't stomach it. Now it wasn't exactly a movie I hated with a passion, but it's definitely only a one-time watch for me. If you're familiar with the old Jason, you probably won't like this - obviously. They had a few of the same kills as they've already done in the original movies, which I thought was really lazy. I mean, a part of the film maker's favorite things to do with the series was create NEW and INNOVATIVE deaths amongst the characters.

2	I'm surprised	Hello, I am a seeker and a devotee of Dr. Hawkins. I've read all his books and read this as soon as it came out. I don't belong to any spiritual groups or anything so, I've never talked to anyone about this book, and after reading these reviews I see that the stuff about Liberals and Conservatives and Bill O'reilly REALLY upset people. I don't understand why. If anyone is REALLY looking for Truth, why are you so outraged if something doesn't fit in with your gameplan? Like Dr. Hawkins has said--A lot of people who say they are looking for Truth are just looking for confirmations of what they already believe. So Hawkins writes something about a political party and bam everything goes out the window? I've heard Dr. Hawkins talk about the hysteria over Bill O'reilly, it's all pretty funny, it's like he wrote Hitler was just misunderstood or something. Bill O'reilly is not evil! Good luck to everyone on the path. --Mick	11	[ "Hello, I am a seeker and a devotee of Dr.", "Hawkins.", "I've read all his books and read this as soon as it came out.", "I don't belong to any spiritual groups or anything so, I've never talked to anyone about this book, and after reading these reviews I see that the stuff about Liberals and Conservatives and Bill O'reilly REALLY upset people.", "I don't understand why.", "If anyone is REALLY looking for Truth, why are you so outraged if something doesn't fit in with your gameplan?", "Like Dr.", "Hawkins has said--A lot of people who say they are looking for Truth are just looking for confirmations of what they already believe.", "So Hawkins writes something about a political party and bam everything goes out the window?", "I've heard Dr.", "Hawkins talk about the hysteria over Bill O'reilly, it's all pretty funny, it's like he wrote Hitler was just misunderstood or something.", "Bill O'reilly is not evil!", "Good luck to everyone on the path.", "--Mick" ]
2	Great for low vision people.	This watch is great for older people with poor vision: indiglo light for nighttime, big numbers, day and date. It has almost everything but there's room for improvement. My parents are in their eighties with poor eyesight. Yet, like most people, they want to know what time it is, day or night. I looked everywhere for a watch with big numbers that mom could wear that lights up at night. I did locate a watch with a light and an easy to put on band in the health products catalogs, but the face was not big enough and had no day or date. There are OnTime watches that talk, for blind people who can hear. I have two suggestions for Timex: Make the Day and Date big enough to read AND put this on a ladies watchband. I spent another $13 for a ladies watchband. The band that comes with this watch is thick and big and heavy and made for men. I guess woman do not have the same vision problems as men...happens with so many products.	11	[ "This watch is great for older people with poor vision: indiglo light for nighttime, big numbers, day and date.", "It has almost everything but there's room for improvement.", "My parents are in their eighties with poor eyesight.", "Yet, like most people, they want to know what time it is, day or night.", "I looked everywhere for a watch with big numbers that mom could wear that lights up at night.", "I did locate a watch with a light and an easy to put on band in the health products catalogs, but the face was not big enough and had no day or date.", "There are OnTime watches that talk, for blind people who can hear.", "I have two suggestions for Timex: Make the Day and Date big enough to read AND put this on a ladies watchband.", "I spent another $13 for a ladies watchband.", "The band that comes with this watch is thick and big and heavy and made for men.", "I guess woman do not have the same vision problems as men...happens with so many products." ]
2	LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these boots! Says Greg's wife!	My parents treat my family to Christmas in Vail each year. I have always admired, by far, the gorgeous fur boots that the wealthy sport on the mountain. Since I was a child, I wanted a pair of my own...I have searched the web for years to find a pair that we could budget for - that look like the $350+ boots I coveted. I was excited when I saw these! However, due to the review that was posted, I was worried about the quality when I ordered them.When they arrived, I was so relieved! The feathers do not appear to easily fall off as the other review stated. The boots are top quality. I am very fussy. This actually is the first review I am inspired to take the time to write. I wear an 8 1/2 and ordered a 9, it is a perfect fit!Comfortable and stylish! Totally LOVE them! Now when I am skiing with my family over the holiday I can pretend to be one of the wealthy trophy wives for the week!

2	All The Burning Bridges...	Just got Kelly's Heroes on DVD this Christmas 2002! I've been in love with this movie since first I saw it about 10 years ago. I never understood why it's not included in some of Eastwood's best work. I'm not knocking the Dirty Harry movies (believe me, I love them all) but Kelly's is Eastwood at his best. His straight schtick is awesome. There's some drama, and a ton of comedy. Some people think Eastwood started his comedy roles with the "Any which way but loose" movies. But it really all started with Kelly's Heroes.People!! Buy this movie! Watch this movie over and over again. Treasure this movie. It just doesn't get any better than this.	12	[ "Just got Kelly's Heroes on DVD this Christmas 2002!", "I've been in love with this movie since first I saw it about 10 years ago.", "I never understood why it's not included in some of Eastwood's best work.", "I'm not knocking the Dirty Harry movies (believe me, I love them all) but Kelly's is Eastwood at his best.", "His straight schtick is awesome.", "There's some drama, and a ton of comedy.", "Some people think Eastwood started his comedy roles with the \"Any which way but loose\" movies.", "But it really all started with Kelly's Heroes.People!!", "Buy this movie!", "Watch this movie over and over again.", "Treasure this movie.", "It just doesn't get any better than this." ]
1	Can't focus	I purchased this camera but decided to return it. It is very easy to use, USB 2.0 makes downloads fast. The cradle works well and the ability to view the camera's filesystem as an external disk is handy as well. The camera looks good and it feels solid. Good piece of engineering. There's only one fundamental issue with the camera - it can't focus. Roughly 25% of pictures I took were blurry for no apparent reason. I emailed Fuji to get updated firmware, but was asked to call them and did not have the time to hang on the phone with customer support. I used an old Canon S20 before and never had similar issues. It's really too bad since except the image quality, everything else in this camera is close to perfect. But then again, why does one purchase a camera if not for good photos ?	11	[ "I purchased this camera but decided to return it.", "It is very easy to use, USB 2.0 makes downloads fast.", "The cradle works well and the ability to view the camera's filesystem as an external disk is handy as well.", "The camera looks good and it feels solid.", "Good piece of engineering.", "There's only one fundamental issue with the camera - it can't focus.", "Roughly 25% of pictures I took were blurry for no apparent reason.", "I emailed Fuji to get updated firmware, but was asked to call them and did not have the time to hang on the phone with customer support.", "I used an old Canon S20 before and never had similar issues.", "It's really too bad since except the image quality, everything else in this camera is close to perfect.", "But then again, why does one purchase a camera if not for good photos?" ]
1	Monster of Comedy	In 1931, Universal Pictures released "Frankenstein", starring Boris Karloff. Instead of joining Paramount Pictures, and other studios on the brink of Depression Era receivership, Universal thrived! Americans flocked to see the Monster. Poverty Row studios tried to cash in with their own "Monster" flicks. Thus was born "The Monster Walks", released in 1932. The story involves people in an old dark house on a stormy night menaced by a killer ape(see short man in gorilla costume). If extremely poor filmaking intrigues you, pick up this lemon. Otherwise, save your dollar. The sets are so cheap they waver, and threaten to collapse at any time.One bright spot is the performance of Mischa Auer, a Russian actor emmigrant in a small part as Hanns. One year later, he'd shine working for Howard Hawks in the classic "Viva Villa". "The Monster Walks" plods forward at a pace a snail could challenge. In fact, the Monster doesnt't walk, it crawls.	12	[ "In 1931, Universal Pictures released \"Frankenstein\", starring Boris Karloff.", "Instead of joining Paramount Pictures, and other studios on the brink of Depression Era receivership, Universal thrived!", "Americans flocked to see the Monster.", "Poverty Row studios tried to cash in with their own \"Monster\" flicks.", "Thus was born \"The Monster Walks\", released in 1932.", "The story involves people in an old dark house on a stormy night menaced by a killer ape(see short man in gorilla costume).", "If extremely poor filmaking intrigues you, pick up this lemon.", "Otherwise, save your dollar.", "The sets are so cheap they waver, and threaten to collapse at any time.One bright spot is the performance of Mischa Auer, a Russian actor emmigrant in a small part as Hanns.", "One year later, he'd shine working for Howard Hawks in the classic \"Viva Villa\".", "\"The Monster Walks\" plods forward at a pace a snail could challenge.", "In fact, the Monster doesnt't walk, it crawls." ]

Got before I even returned the first set. Opened first season only to have the same thing happene! Sent both sets back at same time. Amazon sent out third set, with promise of this set working. NOT only did season one not work. Season three did not work either! Got refund through Amazon. Found set through Costco for $40 LESS then Amazon! And it PLAYS!

1	Curl release did NOT work!	The very first curl in the nap area tangled and it took 10 minutes for my husband to get my hair free. It was only 6 inches long! The curl release did NOT work. I was looking for a product that wouldn't leave my ends frizzy like my bristle one does. So just to test it out, I tried a small section of shorter hair in front. FRIZZ! My hair is naturally straight and I have no problems with it. So this product failed that test with me. I think the all plastic barrel doesn't help. I didn't notice that little detail while purchasing. I want something that has metal so it will curl like a curling iron while blow drying at the same time like my hair dresser uses.

1	Not up to his usual!	If there's a bigger Martin Cruz Smith fan around than your's truly I'd like to meet them. I sacrifice budget or food in the house when he has a new release. Maybe that's why I felt so let down when I finished DECEMBER 6TH.Another review nailed it. Casablanca goes to Japan! Thirty or so pages into this the comparison was way obvious. To me there's nothing worse than taking a classic storyline and trying to disguise it as something new.I wanted this to end. I didn't want POLAR STAR, RED SQUARE, or HAVANA BAY to end. ROSE well ... let's leave ROSE alone. It wilted OK?In so many other works by Smith I felt the chill of ice, smelled the cabbage boiling. I could see the colors of Cuba! Here, not only was it already familiar but it was almost a draft instead of a complete work.Bring back Arkady. He is a never miss character and always brings depth to the story.Sorry Martin.

2	Wonderful CD!!!!	I have this CD and I am having a hard time NOT listening to it. I absolutely love the way Barry did all these songs. I love the title track "A Gift of Love", it's beautiful. I also love the harmonica on "I'll Be Home for Christmas", nice touch Barry. Yes, I'm a Barry Manilow fan. Barry has breathed new life into this songs, especially "River". I never heard Joni Mitchell's version until after the "Christmas in Aspen" special when Barry sang the song. I love Barry's version much, much better - he gave the song new life and lots of personality. Sorry Joni. Otherwise, the rest of this album is alive with a touch of swing, jazz, pure enjoyment and celebration. It's obvious Barry had a great time recording this album and you can hear it.

1	good, but disappointed	I bought 5 of these in 2009. Very happy with them. Needed one more so bought it in February 2012. The site said it was the same one I had ordered previously. BUT, it is not. The older ones weigh 4 pounds and say on the bottom: Cabin Kitchen CIBP9. The new one weighs 3.5 pounds and says on the bottom: Camp Chef Home. The new one is the exact same size and design, just thinner and lighter. It is still a good pan, but my problem is it makes a difference in the way the bread bakes. The new one is over-done when the old ones are just right. I would really like to get one more of the older model to match my others. If you have one for sale, please let me know.

2	The prodigal knife returns	I bought an assortment of Henckels Four Star kitchen knives 20+ years ago - knives to last a lifetime. But after a party a few years ago the paring knife strayed from the flock. Oh, I tried to replace it with some pretenders, but it wasn't the same. Then I took my substitute paring knife to a function and inadvertently left it - was it an accident?Anyway, I tried again to replace the original locally and finally found one at the mall for $70. I knew it was The One, but blanched at the price. So I came home to Amazon and found it for around $40.This is a great knife. It feels good in my hand. Perfect for slicing strawberries and other fruits. Smooth profile has no corners or crevices to trap food particles. Henckels Four Star kitchen knives really are to last a lifetime.

2	back from the depths	Al has finally come around. Gone is the slow, heavy mud that was "Filth Pig". Al is back with speed, chest pounding beats, and most importantly, samples. Sure, it's not quite as clean as "Mind..", but this is the stuff that made people like Ministry in the first place. I mean, let's face it, "Filth Pig" and "Spoon" did not attract new followers; all those albums did was irritate the old ones. The sound of this album is closest to "Psalm 69". As for the whole political statement, I think it's kind of silly, but I could really care less. Al could sing about unicorns and rainbows, and I probably wouldn't know the difference, as long as the music is there. Al's political views are only clear when you read the lyrics.

1	College Basketball fans stay away	The game is to unrealistic. I play the pro basketball games and they are much better than this. First, there are only some mid-majors. The odds are if your team isn't a major school it wont be on there. Second, it is to unrealistic. You can be Howard and beat Duke by 20 even if it's your first time playing. You just go in for the steal and slam it and score. If you fail to steal you can just block it. If you try to drive the lane using back turns and crossovers the player just runs right out of bounds. They make it way to easy to shoot. If you play 20 minute halves you will find yourself with 70-80 points at halftime. On the other hand, the commentary is good and it is the only place with women's action. I would NOT recomend this game.	13	[ "The game is to unrealistic.", "I play the pro basketball games and they are much better than this.", "First, there are only some mid-majors.", "The odds are if your team isn't a major school it wont be on there.", "Second, it is to unrealistic.", "You can be Howard and beat Duke by 20 even if it's your first time playing.", "You just go in for the steal and slam it and score.", "If you fail to steal you can just block it.", "If you try to drive the lane using back turns and crossovers the player just runs right out of bounds.", "They make it way to easy to shoot.", "If you play 20 minute halves you will find yourself with 70-80 points at halftime.", "On the other hand, the commentary is good and it is the only place with women's action.", "I would NOT recomend this game." ]
1	Insipid & Disappointing	This album was especially disappointing since I have been a Streisand fan for many years. I still recall how electrifying her early albums were in the 60s. I played them so much I wore them out. On this album Barbara gives a lackluster performance. She goes through the motions but any emotion is gone. One gets the sense that she is just doing a job to make money and all the passion and love for her work are gone. She just does not get into the songs the way she did when she was younger. This current album is all technique but the spark is gone. It actually sounds more like elevator music than something you would intentionally listen to. The arrangements are insipid and she seems to misunderstand the meaning of the lyrics. The selection from West Side Story comes across like an upbeat children's lullaby. Barbara is just out of synch with the composers' intentions. In this album she blew it and the whole experience is disappointing.	13	[ "This album was especially disappointing since I have been a Streisand fan for many years.", "I still recall how electrifying her early albums were in the 60s.", "I played them so much I wore them out.", "On this album Barbara gives a lackluster performance.", "She goes through the motions but any emotion is gone.", "One gets the sense that she is just doing a job to make money and all the passion and love for her work are gone.", "She just does not get into the songs the way she did when she was younger.", "This current album is all technique but the spark is gone.", "It actually sounds more like elevator music than something you would intentionally listen to.", "The arrangements are insipid and she seems to misunderstand the meaning of the lyrics.", "The selection from West Side Story comes across like an upbeat children's lullaby.", "Barbara is just out of synch with the composers' intentions.", "In this album she blew it and the whole experience is disappointing." ]

If you have listened to one of their past albums you would know that they always have some jokes about something profane!But this CD. greatly differs. It not only shows a more serious side of blink 182, but it exhibits music in great versitality. So many FX. and different beats, and different pitches are used (in a good way). Many albums sound have a hit song or two, but then the rest of the tracks, well, suck! But this self-titled album is full of great tunes.This CD.,if not their best, shows guitar at it's highest, drums at it's highest, and bass at it's highest.

I used to be a sceptic about this subject, but every mention of the scriptures is right on and accurate. Every time a verse in the Bible would be brought about, I would look it up for myself. Even though this is fiction, the message is for real. I happen to believe every word of the Bible and this book, along with the others, have made the book of Revelation a lot easier to understand. I recommend this book. I couldn't put it down and read it in less than 24 hours. It's very good, just as the others are. I recomment the series to all. You will not be disappointed.	11	[ "This is a great book.", "Very action packed with some moments of pure emotion.", "I used to be a sceptic about this subject, but every mention of the scriptures is right on and accurate.", "Every time a verse in the Bible would be brought about, I would look it up for myself.", "Even though this is fiction, the message is for real.", "I happen to believe every word of the Bible and this book, along with the others, have made the book of Revelation a lot easier to understand.", "I recommend this book.", "I couldn't put it down and read it in less than 24 hours.", "It's very good, just as the others are.", "I recomment the series to all.", "You will not be disappointed." ]
1	Doesn't Work	The box these socks come in, says fully immersible. As it turns out, so are the socks I wear every day. When I immerse them, my foot gets wet. That is the same thing that happens with these. I went in a spa pool with these on and when I came out, my feet were soaked. I wasn't in that long. If you need to keep your feet completely dry, these will not do that. On the same order, I bought a sock cover that you pump the air out of with a little hand bulb pump. I went in the same spa a day later with the rubber deflated sock cover and my foot came out completely dry. I then used it to go swimming in the ocean. Completely dry! They work great. The product here does not begin to work.	13	[ "The box these socks come in, says fully immersible.", "As it turns out, so are the socks I wear every day.", "When I immerse them, my foot gets wet.", "That is the same thing that happens with these.", "I went in a spa pool with these on and when I came out, my feet were soaked.", "I wasn't in that long.", "If you need to keep your feet completely dry, these will not do that.", "On the same order, I bought a sock cover that you pump the air out of with a little hand bulb pump.", "I went in the same spa a day later with the rubber deflated sock cover and my foot came out completely dry.", "I then used it to go swimming in the ocean.", "Completely dry!", "They work great.", "The product here does not begin to work." ]
