Cry_Help
At first it was the advertisements that gave me an encouragement to see this film. So I did. These advertisements were completely false. It opens up with a young girl running from an unknown killer leading her to her death. Ok..it does start off a little promising, but leading to scenery of bad acting, and useless dialogue. It was probably the worst movie I have seen this year. It doesnt even come close to a scary movie. I have noticed how people have said that horror does not need violence to entertain, which I totaly agree with. But for god sake, it needs something. This has nothing. With one of the most rediculous, rubbish endings I have ever seen in a long time. Stay away from this pile of garbage.

Cute, cute cute!!!
Very cute show. Light and joyful for most of the show. Of course there is an element of melodrama but overall I laughed and smiled through most of it! It seems geared at a slightly younger audience but enjoyable for all ages. I love the element of folklore. It made the show so interesting! I absolutely fell in love with the male lead and the halfling vet (so cute!). The female lead was beautiful and had so much personality. Her character practically jumped right off the screen! The secondary characters (the aunt and director) were a bit over the top but fun.Family viewing? So far this is the cleanest Korean drama I have watched. There was one brief "love" scene they are watching on TV and a few comments on mating (after all she is a 9 tailed fox). Overall I would give it a mild PG rating!

Nelly is Hot. Period
Guys hate it (Well some do). Girls love it. She gets compared to this and that - to Christina Aguilera or to Jewel. Everyone is missing the point. The point is Nelly is 100% original. Once I listened to her album a couple of times, every song came to life. And I am convinced this is just a start. This is not an empty stylized Brittney Spears. This is an artist that will be with us for decades. If I were to compare her to anyone it would almost be a modern Janis Joplin. Just watch out. Nelly is only getting started. She will dominate music for years. Madonna? No, Nelly is better, she is even more talented. I could go on. I am really blown away.

The devil you say
Bob Patchett (Ed Begley Jr.) is just a typical financial adviser. So naturally he wants a wife to match; he turns down his ugly, clumsy, unfeeling, existing wife, Ruth (Rosanne), for a more useful one that is a novelist Mary Fisher (Meryl Streep.) What should be a happy ever after story for the new couple turns into a nightmare. Looks like Ruth intends to get more than even; she finds out his values in order of priority (home, family, career and freedom.) then she commits her life to removing his assets in that order. Her unique approach to the task is what makes the story. However it is the action and reaction of the people that will hold your attention. Will the task be accomplished? The result may surprise you.Ed Begley Jr. makes a good Bob, falling in to every trap set and suffering the consequences. See him again in "The Applegates" (1991). Only this time the bugs (Ed Begley Jr. is one) are set on revenge or at least survival which means removing humans.

A Real Disapointment
My husband and I were really disapointed with this DVD. Our expectations were much higher. We are big fans of Ms. Hughes, and we have all her other DVD's. The audio was so terrible that you really can't hear her narrative. We do not like reading subtitles, which is an option with this DVD. The reinactments were so bad we could tell some of them were wearing Pendleton shirts. She must have asked for volunteers. Compared to the great quality of her previous DVD's, this was a real joke. I can't believe she put this out. She must need money? Please, Ms. Hughes, you are better than this pathetic attempt!!!!

crappy ending ruins the book experience
the last sentences of this review have some minors spoilers.first off, im suprised people actually liked this book. i stayed up all night reading it. and i get to the end. and it was one of the biggest letdowns ive had reading a book. jeff long's other books are amazing, but in this one he brings up all these ideas of ghosts, or a supernatural power on the mountain and he doesnt even explore it. and the ending didnt really make any sense. a corpse walks away? and somehow cuba knew about his past? also as soon as he told the desert story i knew he left her in the desert. it was pretty obvious. sorry im rambling. basically the story took a lot of cool ideas and built them up to nothing. you throw yourself into the book hoping it will pay off in the end and you are left with an empty feeling. that pretty much sums up the book.check out the descent, year zero, and the reckoning in that order if you want to read some awesome jeff long books.

Really Good CD
Of the 14 tracks on this CD, seven are "merely" good, while six are very good and one is great. Every one of the tracks (except the last one (which has a slow tempo)) makes you start bouncing around in your chair and want to start dancing. A really good CD. Here are my individual track ratings:1. Sing, Sing, Sing, Pt. 1 -- 5 Stars2. Stompin' at the Savoy - Steve Wingfield -- 3 Stars3. Don't Be That Way -- 4 Stars4. Kingdom of Swing -- 4 Stars5. Swingtime in the Rockies -- 4 Stars6. One O'Clock Jump -- 3 Stars7. Jersey Bounce -- 4 Stars8. Sing, Sing, Sing, Pt. 2 -- 4 Stars9. These Foolish Things -- 4 Stars10. Smooth One -- 3 Stars11. Seven Come Eleven -- 3 Stars12. AC-DC Current -- 3 Stars13. After You've Gone -- 3 Stars14. Goodbye -- 3 Stars

The best of the best?
One thing is for sure, we have our choice of collections, including the "Greatest Hits", "Best Of", "Downtown Train", "Very Best", "Very Best 2", etc. You get the point. Of them all, this is arguably the best of the best. It covers his entire career anyway. But with someone like "Rod Stewart" who's been around for decades, it's hard to narrow it down to 16 tracks. Plus his style has changed in that time, from his classic songs, to his disco flavored and 80's tunes, to his recent mellower work. So, obviously this is missing even more than it includes. But there's no doubt that what's on this cd is great. This has his huge hits like "Maggie May", "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?", and "Forever Young", as well as my favorites "Young Turks", "Reason To Believe", and "Some Guys Have All The Luck", among others. If you find that you're missing alot of songs, they're probably on "Encore: Very Best Of 2".

Love these little Mini Bread Bakers
1. These things are adorable2. They seem quite durable, as long as you don't bang them around too much. I bought two sets at different times and neither set had any chips so the packaging for shipping was appropriate.3. They do seem to make things more moist when you soak them prior to using. I'm not sure you want this for ALL breads, but for pumpkin/banana that sort of thing it's awesome. I think you could not soak if you don't want the moisture.4. I haven't used them really often as I only bake for other people, not myself, but these are what I use now for any kind of recipe that I need a loaf pan for.5. I think they would be really cute to serve bread in at family parties.Quick review of instructions in case you've lost yours:Soak for 15 minutes in water prior to using. Start pans off in a COLD oven to gradually bring them to temp.**The first time I used these I forgot to do this and they didn't shatter, but it's probably not a good idea to take chances.

Not impressed- died after 2 years with light use
I just got off the phone after speaking with Capresso's customer service representative. I have owned this machine (565) for 2 years, without a lot of heavy use. It just died on me. Timer works, but no grinding action. I cleaned the grinding gears, but it was of use. Now, it's a doorstop. My response from Capresso's customer service is that it will cost either 80.00 to repair OR 80.00 to replace. Not much of a bargain. I was hoping to get a couple more years out of an appliance that cost me 139.99. The cheap Proctor Silex blade grinder that I owned for 10 years was still working when I gave it away on Freecycle. Now, I wish I held onto it.

Norse mythology done manga style!
This was a great manga, although technically not a "manga" persay since it comes from Korea. Myung-Jin Lee did a fabulous job on the art. This takes place in a sci-fi version of the Norse legends, sort of like REIGN THE CONQUEROR is a sci-fi version of Greek mythology. The goddess Fenris has been reborn in the body of a human sorceress. She is being stalked by an ambitious Valkerie. Fenris runs into the might young warrior Chaos and his friend, the enchantress Iris. They bring her back to Iris' city of Fayon in the kingdom of Midgard. But Fenris soon learns she has ties to Iris. Plus, the scantily-clad thief Lidia hopes to gain the favor of Chaos, and joins the others on their quest. This series has alot of cool graphics and great design. Cooler than a Thor comic book any day!

bad and not good at all
Saw 1 is good, the rest really, really suck. this one was so, so, so very bad. boring violence, lame plot, and really boring characters. Oh, character development, it only took the 4th movie to get into it. Guess what? it was unnecessary and boring character development. I don't care what made Jigsaw so awesome (obviously only referring to the first movie), but he is, so stop prying. I don't need to know about his ex-chick-E-baby to know what makes him tick. What am I his girlfriend or something? He kills people for a cause, don't muddy the waters. Once you kill off a character, guess what, don't go and tell us his life story, that's just lame. while I'm at it, the girl from "Becker" are you serious? That is the WORST casting that I've ever seen. So, So Bad

great idea some flaws
My son loves this toy. I bought it for him when he was only 4 weeks and put it in his crib. He has loved it since. He uses it when he is in his crib, swing, car seat, and floor. The thing I do not like about it is that battery pack. You have to take out the batteries out and the pack of to take it of the crib. This is a pain in the but because my son wants it with him all the time. I tried to just set it in the crib and that worked for a while but know he pulls it over and get mad because he can not see it. I just bought another on at a thrift shop (an older the batteries go in the back) and we use that on for the car swing floor. My son has just started walking and he pulls it around with him by the straps that hold it to the crib. This toy is very well made. Still works after being dropped and thrown. I you are think about buying this toy I say you should. Just be prepared that you might need to. My son it 18 mo and still loves it.

BATMAN BLU is awesome! BE WARNED THE DIGITAL COPY INCLUDED HAS EXPIRED!!
I purchased the Batman Blu Ray book with digital copy recently and was quite angered to learn the digital copy had recently expired. There was no literature on the front or back of the shrinkwrapped copy to indicate this... So when I opened the blu ray(Thus voiding the return) The slip of paper had indicated that the copy had expired. I tried it on itunes anyway just in case and NO LUCK! I was quite livid since I travel year round and watch so many movies on my macbook or ipod. At any rate I contacted Warner Bros and am waiting to hear back. The movie itself was awesome in Blu Ray. The book included is kind of cool. I actually love the whole Warner book editions of these blu rays.SO IF YOU BUY IT FOR THE DIGITAL COPY... BE WARNED ONCE MORE... IT HAS EXPIRED. IT EXPIRED IN LATE MARCH. I will post again when I hear back from Warner Bros.

Scares mothers to death!
What To Expect When Expecting was good info for being pregnant the first time. However, when I found out I was pregnant, I felt confident that I could be a good mother. By the time I had read What To Expect The 1st Year, I felt like a paranoid idiot. NOT ALL BABIES ARE THE SAME!!! In this day and age of EXPERTS on everything, I think we need to remember who the experts are here--the MOTHERS. We know our kids better than anyone. I went and bought Dr. Spock's revised ed. The first sentence is TRUST YOURSELF. I don't feel like such an idiot anymore. Not all babies start on solids at 4mo or can put themselves to sleep, or want juice, etc. Only mothers know what their babies need.

Dissappointing
Even though I'm a big Beatles and Lennon fan I found this to be a letdown. Especially after all the 5 stars it got from people here. I found myself squirming at times as John is so wound up. He is very anxious and the constant lighting up of ciggies puts me off. He looks to be wired and coked up to me. Cavett at times, even though he tries to look calm and in control, is clearly uncomfortable. Yoko Ono is always asking questions through John like a little girl. On the second appearance The Elephants Memory Band play the tepid "Woman is the nigger" and a Yoko song which is a complete waste of time. Ringo on the Donahue show (1995) is a way better interview. Only when Cavet allows the audience to throw questions at John does it liven up. Clearly the best part. Unfortunately its not long enough.

Bad behavior as George knows best
What trouble can the cute little monkey get into today?Let's start by trespassing on someone's property, and opening an animal enclosure without permission. Then, let's turn a baby bunny loose in the woods so we can't find it. Uh-oh! I know, let's tie a string around the mother bunny's neck. Perhaps the threat of strangulation will force her to help us. Yea! She found her baby hiding under a tree (what a surprise), now let's pull it out BY THE TAIL.I won't deny that the illustrations are very cute. But what's the lesson here? Why can't Curious George send a positive message to kids?The Product Description mentions that this is "Inspired by a vignette in Curious George Flies a Kite." That means the scenes in Curious George and the Bunny are from the larger book, and were simply incorporated into the newly published board book in 1998. (Oddly, the "B" in the title is erroneously not capitalized on the front of the board book; it is correct on the spine.)

ANOTHER GREAT BOOK BY TERRY PLUTO
IF YOU ARE A TRIBE FAN THEN THIS IS FOR YOU. IT BREAKS DOWN ALL THE VERY BAD THINGS THAT HAPPENDED TO THE INDIANS SINCE THE TRADE OF COLAVITO BACK IN 1960. I KNOW ALL TEAMS HAVE BAD LUCK AND BAD SEASONS BUT THE INDIANS WENT OVER 40 YEARS UNTIL THEY MADE THE PLAYOFFS AND HAVE LAST WON THE WORLD SERIES IN 1948. MANY MANY PLAYERS, OWNERS AND MANAGERS ARE TALKED ABOUT IN THIS EXCELLENT BOOK. I HAVE READ JUST ABOUT ALL OF TERRY'S BOOKS AND I HAVE LIKED EVERYONE. HE IS ALSO A SPORTS WRITER FOR THE CLEVELAND PLAIN DEALER AND HIS WRITING HAS WON SEVERAL AWARDS. THIS BOOK BROUGHT BACK SEVERAL MEMORIES OF PAIN AND FRUSTRATION FOR TRIBE FANS. SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS ARE THE MANNING ECKERSLEY LOVE TRIANGLE AND THE ALCOHOL ADDICTION OF SAM MCDOWELL. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS.

I was a skeptic!!
I am 33 mom of 3 and at my wits end with Acne. I had been to a dermatologist again (off and on throughout the years) and been put on topical medications which were not working. I stumbled upon this and CANNOT BELIEVE that after 3 days my acne started clearing up. It has now been 6 days and it is only getting better. I went on the 3 day diet and am now incorporating his ideas into my regular lifestyle. I think I have lost 3 pounds too, but to me the clear skin is the best!! I have been taking a multivitamin, some extra Vitamin A and selenium drinking a lot of green tea, use flax seed on my yogurt and just started taking fish oil too and that has worked for me. If you have acne and really want a solution, I say give it a try...just incorporate what you can into your life and see. p.s. I love!! coffee but am going without except for maybe 1 cup a day.

An interesting read but not literature
I had to read this book as part of my summer reading for senior AP English. It is a very funny, interesting story and any reader has to give Jane Austen credit for satirical view of the world around her. But, come on. Great Literature? It is a fluff book that leads the reader to no great revelations about their life or enviroment. To me, a novel is only as great as the thoughts it provoked. My "great thoughts" coming out of the novel were only "I'm glad Darcy and Elizabeth fell in love" and "Gee, I hate Lydia". Don't misunderstand me. I like the book and recommend it. It's just that there are so many more deep, meaningful things to read. Thank you.

It's a cookbook... should have bought the "real" version.
I'm suffering some buyers remorse on this one. The book is good. Lots of interesting ideas for backpacking foods. However, I bought the kindle edition. Kindle is great for novels and such, not so good for instructional manuals and cookbooks. I want to mark pages, be able to flip through it quickly.Oh well... maybe I can find a used version cheap.Any way, I like the book. But you better have a dehydrator for a lot of ingredients. Its heavy on the home-dried foods. I'd prefer a book that involved off the shelf food, with a lot less dehydration work. It shouldn't take me a week to put together meals for three days - that a diminishing return.The extras in the back were okay, but a bit strange for a cookbook. Trail histories I can read somewhere else. A list of food sources, review of dehydrators, etc. might have made more sense and been more practical in a cookbook (like the included tables for converting cups to quarts).

Fantastic!
Michael W. Smith is inspired. I've liked him since before I was a Christian and liked contemporary Christian music! He crafts such glorious pop songs that lift you up and encourage you (whether you are a Christian or not). This album is probably my favorite overall of his oeuvre. "Hey You It's Me" is sunny pop perfection - it makes me want to ride in my car with the windows down, smiling up into the sky. "Reach Out to Me" is a driving, heartfelt track that I really *feel*! "I Still Have the Dream," which is receiving play on Christian radio now, is so good that I was glad I already owned the album - I would have had to go buy it otherwise! It makes you want to just get up and dance. And the title track... breathtaking. It is so powerful, it brings tears to my eyes every time. "I Will Be Your Friend" is another great best friend anthem. Every song on this album is excellent, but I don't have the space to go one by one! Just go for it and buy this CD!

Grrrr...
I'm cranky about this product. It was good. It was great in fact. It was on its way to FIVE stars. But then it ... out on me. After 3 weeks. And it took 6 days for RCA to get back to me about the fact that it wouldnt play. (Yes, I changed the batteries.) And you know what they said? "Check the manual." Gee thanks. Anyway, I'll be getting a replacement from RCA, by golly, but I'm still pretty torn up about wasting time.

ACROSS THE MOON!
Remember "Thelma and Louise"? Well, here are Kathy (CHRISTINA APPLEGATE!) and Carmen (ELIZABETH PENA!), a couple of YOUNG WOMEN who end up living together in a TRAILER to be near their boyfriends who are in prison! With no money, Kathy and Carmen consider becoming PROSTITUTES, but then they get a couple of legitimate jobs! Getting tired of the ways things are going, the two gals take to the road and seek a NEW LIFE of ADVENTURE and ROMANCE! Not good enough for you? How about if we throw in BURGESS MEREDITH as an old prospector and MICHAEL McKEAN as a guy who keeps a trained lion and tiger out in the desert! Still not good enough for you? Well, this film has JACK NANCE! That's right! "Eraserhead" himself! Directed by LISA GOTTLIEB!

Better than expected!
As a long-time baseball fan who has heard all the interviews and read a lot of baseball books, I fully expected "Built To Win" to be a rah-rah, gung-ho baseball book in the spirit of the interviews that Tommy Lasorda always gives the media. I also expected nothing resembling "inside info" that I hadn't read elsewhere. So I was very pleasantly surprised that the book isn't at all like that. As a 15-year Braves' season-ticket holder, I learned a lot about the organization and gained a greater respect for Schurholz and his staff. The only negative thing I can say about it is that Schurholz repeatedly hammers the point that his philosophies are all full of goodie-two-shoes attitudes. While that's not a bad thing . . . in fact it's quite admirable in this day of schmuck-dominated business dealings . . . it gets a little old after a while.

Awful
We used it for less than a month when our baby was just born. It held about 10 infant diapers, I cant imagine how many toddler diapers it would hold, 1? It was disgusting to have to push a dirty poopy diaper into that contraption. And in the end it still smelled. I actually returned mine it was so horrible. I would usually not return something my daughter's poop had touched, but this was such a horrible product I couldn't imagine supporting the company who made it.In the end we switched to cloth. They are amazingly easy to use and clean, way cheeper than disposables and they don't sit in a landfill for 500 YEARS! Thats how long disposables take to degrade. That is disgusting, great legacy for your baby to leave behind... I honestly feel guilty for even using disposables for a few weeks. SWITCH TO CLOTH!!

Don't Buy It....
...I'm telling you I've purchased "Precious", "A Love Supreme" and "This Moment is Mine". Precious, was by far the best CD Chante will ever do in this lifetime. Lots of artists only dream of such a wonderful debut with the likes of George Duke, BeBe Winans, Stanley Clarke, & Will Downing behind the scenes. "A Love Supreme"...well, all I can say is "what a waste". "This Moment is Mine"...I thought well maybe she's heading back in the right direction. Then I bought "Exposed"...what a joke! Not one song showcases her truly incredible voice. All of the songs are electronic "hip hop" produced by the likes of Dupre, Jam/Lewis, and Laney Stewart (whoever that is). Her vocals are light, airy and devoid of any real substance. All I can wonder is doesn't a person that can really sing know when they are HEARING BAD MUSIC? I can't imagine Chante would signoff on such a project. Totally disappointed. If anyone wants a copy you can have mine!

Works great at first.
We bought this for our cats, hoping to provide a constant flow of clean water. It's better than having a bowl, with standing water. The first 3 months of owning it, it worked great! Our cats loved playing in the stream of water, and it made us feel better to give them clean, filtered water. How wrong we were! Due to constant water being inside the bowl, mold starts forming inbetween the creases of plastic. We cleaned and changed the water regularly, but there was no avoiding the mold. Soon after, we noticed that the water was barely trickling out of the top. We had to take the entire thing apart & clean out the pump due it being clogged with fur. It worked well after that, but the mold kept forming and it was in places where you couldn't clean well. I used a toothbrush and hot hot water to no avail. This thing has been more trouble than it's worth. Now we're back to a small water bowl, looking for a decent replacement.

Poorly designed considering the cost
I have had one for four years. From the git go, I had problems with the lid. It is not hinged and it easily falls into the water tank. The clamp that holds the water pik is plastic and it eventually broke but I always had problems with it holding the pik. Whenever the pik is laid flat which happens sometimes when it falls out of the clamp, it leaks water. Apparently, there is a gravity flow. If properly designed, water should eject only when it is pumped. This could also be alleviated if the switch on the pik had to be pressed in order to get the water to flow. As the pik functions, the button can be pressed on the pik to stop the flow but when it is released the flow commences. Personally I would prefer it if the water did not flow until I pressed the switch on the pik. However, what finished the pik off was that the hose began to leak where it comes out at the bottom. Poor design having the hose underneath the pik.

EZRA what a cold cold heart you have
Had you ever heard of Lilah?Some question why Halter choose her. I think shewas a good choice. No we have never heard of her...until now.He makes her come alive. He makes her very humanto us.Lilah is torn between her love for Antiones (herPersian lover), Ezra and God.She will choose Ezra and God. She leaves Susa andlove behind.Ezra leads the Jews from Susa to Jerusalem. It is adifficult journey. Once in Jerusalem Ezra becomesfanatical. He tears families apart. He send thousandsof good people to the desert. Lilah goes with them ofher own choice and attends to their needs. Starvation,illness, suffering and death is never ending.Ezra never blinks an eye.So who is the more Godly Ezra or Lilah ? I believewe would all choose LILAH.

Amazingly True.
Wow. I happened to stumble on this book, blindly. I read it once, then twice. I stayed up all night reading it over and over. It was so...true, the feelings Annie and Liza had for each other. I have how writers portray first love as something you're sure of, something that isn't scary. Something you'd have to define. This book does none of these things. Although the dialoge at times seems a little staged, it never falls to TV movie level, and the emotion behind it always shines through. This book made me cry, but in the best way possible.I highly recommend this book to those who may be questioning thier sexuality. I wish I would have had this to read in junior high when I felt that no one in the world felt like I did.

Ghastly writing, dull, tedious
There is so much wrong with this book it is hard to know where to begin. The only people who would like this book are those who would like it's anti-American political statements. There is NO CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT whatsoever, there are too many characters to keep them straight, and the prose is about third-grade level. I didn't care about any of the characters. This book isn't even close to the quality of a Clancy novel. The plotting is so dull, it is difficult to sustain one's attention on the story (you'll find yourself thinking about tomorrow's tasks, today's problems . . . anything but the story). I can't believe I finished the thing. What a waste of time.

Just one question
just one question: is there a fantasy writer out there that Mr. Paolini has NOT stolen from? this book has strung together the work of Tolkien, McCaffrey, Robert Jordan, Star Wars, and Dee[ Space Nine, to name a few. it's irritating to me, a teenager, that people are saying the reason the author can't write an original book is because he's a teenager. i disagree. there are plenty of teenagers who can come up with new ideas --he just isn't one of them. why was this book published and given so much hype? i don't know. Tolkien's plot without Tolkien's wisdom is kind of sad. McCaffrey's dragons without originality is sad, too. Jordan's mountains and creatures without Jordan's great writing is really sad. Star Wars and Deep Space Nine mixed in is just lame. well, all i can say is, this book is not worth buying.

J.K. Rowling has lost her touch
What is wrong with this book....there are so many things to name. First off it is way too predictable and more of a recap of the series than then 5th addition to it. Second....this book was boring beyond belief. It was a struggle to keep reading. Three...Too much info involved. In her other novels of the series J.K. won the reader's hearts through witty turns with the words and her magical sense of being able to tie it together. This book lacks that and more. Harry potter yelling at everyone?! That is not typical teenage behavior. Get a life! I hope her next in the series are much better written than this. Oh yea. not to give anything away, but the "surprise" is a huge anti-climax.

A MANS' SPEAKER.
I had CV AT-15, 3" tweet, 6" mid, 15" woofers, these monsters had 2" particle board cabinets. The fidelity was close to perfect, I hosted many a party and everyone always commented on the sound "like it was live". Rich, full sound, the highs were crisp and clean, the lows were earth shaking. They had passive radiators, in a room that was 30' feet long the puffs of air would hit you, these are the air moving, organic sound reproducers that your ears love. I drove them with a 500w. JVC. at a nice volume (50%) the woofers would move your clothes! LITERALY! Cerwins move the soul. If you want to feel sound in your spine...CERWIN'S!

Just got this watch today
I decided that I needed a new watch and this is the watch I chose. Having only worn the watch for a few hours I will update this review in a few months. IF YOUR LOOKING FOR AN OVER SIZED OR LARGER DIVER DON'T BUY THIS ONE. This watch is much smaller than I expected it to be. This watch can been wore to a suit and tie event or just to the gym. Real clean lines and easy to read display. The pictures with the measurements are on Amazon are very misleading. I looked up another watch that I have on Amazon to compare sizes between this watch my other watch. According to Amazon my other watch seemed to be much smaller. I was pretty surprised when I opened the box to see that this watch is the same size maybe even smaller than what I anticipated. Overall for right now I think I will keep this watch I do like how it looks!For looks it gets ***** I'll update the review later on this year on durability and time keeping.

What could this have been?
What could this have been had RAH been well enough to edit and rewrite it? As most fans know, Heinlein suffered periods of sickness. I think this time it was peritonitis, but I am not really sure. He did not get to edit or rewrite to his standards, and it shows. What you are reading is one of his rough drafts, not a finished product. That makes a big difference, and for that reason, I can't really recommend this except to die-hards. However I am surprised at the number of people who are not die-hards who seem to enjoy it. I would just hate for this to be someone's first or second experience with this wonderful author. May I suggest Citizen of the Galaxy? Time Enough for Love? Even To Sail Beyond the Sunset? This should be one of the last books Heinlein competists like myself should read.

Mediocre at best
I bought this phone about one month ago. I rarely upgreade phones but I really wanted a camera phone so I bought this model because of its price. I now wish I could return it or throw it away. I usually love flip phones because I find their quality to be better but this is not the case with the Cyclops. The red light on the outside flashes constantly which is annoying. When texting the letters often get scrambled because of a software glitch so the message is completely incoherent. I often have to erase and then rewrite it several times. The camera is horrible too. Every picture is either too bright or dark and they are very grainy. In addition, sometimes when I check my pictures the phone just turns off by itself for no reason. I believe this is another software glitch.I would go ahead and spend the extra money on a better model if looking for a phone that you would like to use.

Is This What America Media Has Come To?
Is this really what our media is coming to? I can't imagine a movie more terrible than this one. People say that it's funny. It's not. It's perverted, to the extreme. The acting is bad, the storyline simple. What this guy does is absolutely gut wrenching. I have no idea how warped a person's sense of humor needs to be before they think swinging a baby by the umbilical cord in a hospital room is funny. I personally don't laugh at being offended. Granted, the movie does do what it was meant to accomplish. It will offend you. You will be blasted with profanity throughout the entire movie and with a relentless fear of how bad the next scene will be. Designed to attract teens, it does so, but the message it teaches is so wrong (in anyone's viewpoint, really) that it even pushes most of them away.If you laugh at offense, you'd better bring Kleenex to wipe away the tears. It's a shame something like this actually made it to the theatre.

Kathy Smith-a great aerobic instructor
I have really enjoyed Kathy Smith's tapes. This one is included in my collection and I have to say it is an instant work-out! The toning tape is a good challenge and gives pretty good results. The aerobic portion is fun, kinda zany and doesn't get to boring. There are a few traditional moves, like the grapevine with other funky ones added in, like the "running man". It also allows for some freedom in sections that you are bound to enjoy. The stretching portion leaves you feeling relaxed and free. Each section is made up of its own individual 20 minute mini workout. Different music and settings help alleviate boredom. All in all, I would suggest you add it to your collection, especially for the price. Great if you are on the go and have minimal time in your busy schedule to get in shape. Also good if you feel like taking a long work out with lots of variation.

Inspired to Share With All I know
i could not put this book down. I am in bad health and not great eye sight. But could not quit reading. I am a Christian , but had never thought of Hell in such a grafic and scary term. I mean I knew it was a terrible place I did not want to go or want anyone else to go , but never imagined it was this terrible. This man is very humble and gives all accounts to what the Bible says. After having been to such a place , why on earth would he lie and take the chance of God's rebuke on his life. NO, I do belive his account, anyway he is not pointing to himself all through the book. He is pointing to Gods word and what it says.This has really given me a greater burden to share The Gospel and to do it as often as I can and quickly. So many Bible prophecies are to this day ,coming to pass the Lord could return at any moment . We who are of Jesus must be ready and share while there is still time.God Bless this man for writing this book.

Very vague
This book is a really long book for a self-help book. I am in immediate need of help and I have to read 400 pages? Is it worth the read? Not. Is it inspirational? Slightly. It is a very vague book on NLP popularized by Bandler and Grinder. You are better off searching for books by these guys. For even better stuff, search for book under Milton Erickson, the father of hypnosis whom Bandler and Grinder studied under. Why am I telling you all this? Well, this book is basically on human psychology. To understand yourself and others, this is the topic to study and what this book preaches, but very vaguely. Robbins has become a very wealthy man because of other people's work which once again proved you don't have to invent or build a better mouse trap. You only need to market it well.

SHALLOW LYRICS. HORRIBLE SOUND. VERY DISAPPOINTING.........
I thought I listened to all the bad music out there until I listened to this CD. I first thought Limp Bizkit was one of the distinctive and powerful groups which stood out from those trendy music crowd of the 90s. I guess I was wrong. I liked some songs like "Re-arranged" and "n 2 gether now." But they got old after listening to it couple of times. Other songs ranged from simply horrible to fair. I think it is because they have very immature, and shallow music and lyrics, uninteresting at best. The voice of the lead singer is annoying and overly repetitive(no creativity) and the guitarist is simply not skilled enough to make good music. He just cranks up the bass and distortion and plays simple, plain, boring riffs over and over. The bassist is pretty good though. I think this group can be great if they improve on their horrible musical skills instead of just trying to be bad who wants to get laid too much....(just my opinion people.)

Learning with Errors
I highly recommend you look for another learning program software for your child. This one has mistakes from the start. You are given a letter and asked to choose pictures that have the same beginning sound. The pictures do not match to the beginning sound and the program tells you "great job" and "fantastic". Don't have your child learn the wrong answer, dont buy this one! Plus try contacting the company to see if there are patches for the error, it's hair raising. Flash cards are a better choice than this. I give this program (-)stars if it was an option. Try "Clifford The Big Red Dog Phonics",or "Cliffords The Big Red Dog Reading" your child will learn with these (Ages 4-6). "Arthur's Reading Race" for ages 3-7. "Language Trek" Grades 5 & 6.

Review of Vacation Under the Volcano by Sam A
Jack and Annie travel to far away places in a magic tree house. They are helping Morgan get library books back before they are lost forever. Jack and Annie are trying to get out of Pompeii Rome before the volcano erupts. Before they leave they have to get an ancient scroll. When they get in the library in Pompeii the volcano erupts. They put pillows on their heads and run toward the tree house. When they get to the creek it is filled with pumice. They hold up the scroll and say "save us, story." A giant gladiator saved them. They got in the tree house and got the Pennsylvania book and said "I wish we could go there." They made it home safely with the scroll. The story is called The Strongest Man in the world. It's a story about Hercules.

One of the best hand creams out there
My husband used to have really dry skin during the winter. It was so dry that it made him bleed. We tried so many hand creams. Nothing help, not to mention that some of them really burned his dry sensitive skin.So we tried out this product. It was like a miracle. He used a small amount one night. I think I even bought him cotton gloves that he didn't want to use, but agreed to wear them for one night. And what can I say, over night we saw a major difference! After a few days only his skin felt like baby skin.It's a great product. We keep using it every winter. This small tube lasts forever.

Stick with the board game ...
Right from the get-go, directly after the flawless installation, Scrabble got stuck in a loop where my human player (me) and "Mavin" (computer player), were both being controlled by the computer, though clearly not instructed to. As the computer played the game, I could not break the cycle to exit to the main screen. Soon my system locked up hard. I rebooted and attempted again, but once again was met with a computer attempting to control my moves. One more lock up and one more reset, and now I can play normally, controlling my own moves.Very odd indeed! The music is horrendous and must be turned off. The game is "okay" to play, but I end up becoming annoyed after awhile for no particular reason. Just some hidden form of angst the Scrabble Complete draws out. Boggle still sits, I haven't installed it yet.Stick with the board version of Scrabble. Have a friend over or two and be social. No sense wasting your time with the faceless Mavin.

Very small footprint.
I bought for my shop, ended up putting in my pickup. It is quite small but has all the knobs and switches that I was looking for in a CB radio. I mounted this under the dash for my 4x4 - it is small enough not to get kicked getting in and out. This has a ANL and NB to quiet the reception noise and a RF gain control to reduce strong signals. No issues with it working at any level. IT works. It's on with the key and off with the key. NO issues.My only complaint isn't about this radio; more of I miss my old radio. I had an old JCPenney CB radio some 35 years ago. The squelch control on the JCP radio kicked in kinda gradually. Not all on at once or all off at once. A nice fade in and out. I wish this radio did the same thing.

DeWalt fixes Porter Cable's Problems
I haven't actually purchased this router. . .yet. I just checked it out at a woodworking show. DeWalt has addressed the various problems with the Porter Cable design. 1) The cord is removable, so if you get the D-handle base, you don't have a 6-foot cord to coil. 2) Various base plates are available (round or with one flat edge). 3) The 2 1/2 HP variable speed motor has a spindle lock button so only 1 wrench is needed for bit change (this may be an optional add-on to the 1 3/4 HP model). 4) The plunge base is VERY smooth. 5) There's a quick-release to pull the motor from the base. 6) The locking lever (to lock the depth of the motor) seems much smoother and more dependable than the PC. From an engineering standpoint, this is a 5-star unit, but since I haven't had a chance to kick one around the shop, I can't give it full marks. This is one to check out before buying the PC. I think it sets a new standard.

Great manga, Great value.
When you get this manga in the mail.... The manga is pretty big, and it is in FULL color. There is also a nice jacket on it. They really spent some time on mastering this manga. They did a terrific job.The manga revolves around Ken fighting Shin mostly. Then the aftermath as Ken fights more random people. Right when it starts off the fighting begins. They did a great job with it as we see a lighter side of Shin.I really enjoyed this manga. There is a lot more fighting compared to volume 1 I would say. There are also some more great death moves. Enjoy.

Not what I was expecting... but still interesting
If you grab this book thinking you'll get her next romantic comedy you are WAY off the mark. This book is more of a saga. It spans 30 years in the life of a young woman and her mother and their experiences in and around hollywood and the rich and famous. This book wasn't so much a romance really, although she did give you a basic romance plot as the vehicle to carry the story through (innocent meets jaded hero, innocent preceives betrayal, years later reconciliation). But that wasn't where the weight of the emotional impact existed. The true story is between mother and daughter. All that beings said, I couldn't put the book down. The looks into the characters hearts and minds were indepth and genuine. The relationship dynamics between characters rang true. This is a quality "women's fiction." Worth a buy!

a student from SoCAL
I took the LSAT some time ago and finished one semester of law school, then dropped out due to family reasons. Two kids and three jobs later I wanted to try law school again but I had to retake the LSAT. (Schools would not accept my old score which I found a little short-sighted.) I found this book on line and it seemed to fit my needs. I dutifully sat for the four-week course. It helped a ton, especially in the Analytical Reasoning section which had me absolutely fooled. The style, thorough coverage, and classroom humor of the teacher was very appealing. I also bought the four latest LSATs available and took them, timing myself. The materials in the book book were just like the past exams which gave me confidence going into the June exam. My score was in the upper 20% (better than last time). I strongly recommend this study plan if you are pinched for time and want a solid review. L. Herrington

Ink sapper that doesn't produce
I've had this machine for over a year, and I keep hanging onto it hoping it will somehow start improving its quality. Don't know why; just a hope and dream that I have. I have had trouble with this machine from day one. First, the fax software does not read on Windows ME, so if that's your operating system, you can't load the fax software and use the fax component, even though the box said it was compatible with ME. Second, the ink is EXPENSIVE to replace. The color cartridge alone is $$$. It's one thing to offer an all-in-one at under $$$, but it's another thing if you spend $$$ every couple of months replacing cartridges. Finally, the print quality is extremely poor. Even if you use the photo quality option, you'll get lines through your pictures and an uneven distribution of color. Go ahead and spend the extra on an HP. It's better to buy a good machine now then to waste money on ink cartridges later.

Got my interest
Like Schindler's story, Giardina's novel introduces to us a story that some of us may never have known before. This novel introduced me to a real figure who is very inspiring and very human. Too many historic "heroes" seem like myths or memories. Giardina cures this illness by making Bonhoeffer real, and making him exist once again. It is both an important and well told story, based on something terrifying and real. This is the novel that developed my interest in Bonhoeffer and his life.Giardina teaches at West Virginia State College, the school that I attend. I have had the opportunity to take her Fiction Writing Workshop class. A friend recommened this novel to me. It remains my favorite Giardina novel. Serious, but entertaining. Touching and compassionate. This is one of the greatest books I have ever read.

A Groan Thing
We saw the trailer for this movie on another DVD rental and it looked like it was going to be a great comedy. Unfortunately the trailer contains all of the laughs. The guy who edited the trailer deserves an Oscar and then be shot. We wanted to like this one. We tried twice make it through the whole movie and couldn't make it either time. It was that bad. No it was worse. The lead actor is so over the top and stupid that he rendered the movie unwatchable all by himself. I can't imagine what James Brolin had to say to Barbara when he screened this one for her. Hopefully the paycheck was really big. Other than Stiles we have to say: Terrible acting - Awful Script - Insipid Humor. What a disappointment!

Tedious
This book is a tedious read. The book starts promising: Bird's wife and daughter are brutally murdered and Bird (an ex-policeman and alcoholist) is (most of the time) busy finding the person who did it. The first 100 pages or so the book keeps you spellbound.Looks like a winner ... ? Well, eventually it is not. Bird keeps meeting many (too many) new characters page after page. He travels from place to place, with numerous flashbacks. The murderer is a real lunatic. He kills and strips the victims in various awful ways. But it is all too much ! This book is too complicated, and it lacks a real thrill. There is no focus. This book sure is a page-turner, in that way that you want to finish this book as soon as possible so you can read another, better one.

Not Up To Standard
I absolutely LOVED the first three books. So much so that I actually sent an e-mail to the authors thanking them for some very enjoyable reads. I awaited Sherman and Cragg's latest work with anticipation.In this case I was very disappointed. The book felt had a hasty, unfinished quality. As usual, the authors characterizations were superb. You can really believe in a Sherman and Cragg character. What was left out was plot.The story made very little sense and there was almost no plot development. Points were seemingly brought up at random and then dropped. I found it to be a very frustrating read. There were just too many points left unexplored. I can usually "suspend disbelief" and enjoy a sci-fi book for what it is....fiction. This book left me cold.Some authors go too far with background material, this book gives you none.

Terrible design..broke almost immediately
I bought this printer and set it up. After printing only about 5 pages, the printer gave me an error that I had more than one yellow ink tank installed. There was only one of each tank installed as per the instructions. I rechecked and still could not get the printer to work. Finally I emailed tech support and they told me they would replace the defective ink tank. Unfortunately, when one ink tank does not work, NOTHING WORKS!! You can't print, copy, scan or fax...nothing!! And apparently this is a known problem for this model. I will not be surprised if, once the yellow tank is replaced, one or more of the other tanks goes bad. If I could return this I would....terrible product and terrible design. Avoid like the plague!!

This book is by far the WORST Frommers publication
I always use Frommers books for my vacations, but I have to tell you that this book is the biggest waste of money I have ever spent on Amazon or any other book store for that matter. The author obviously has not done her job here. Be careful, you just might wind up in Iraq if you follow her guides. This book is very vague and confusing throughout. You can not trust her hotel recommendations. How in the world can she justify putting Apricot hotel in Istanbul in this book. This guy is a crook. This hotel should be taken out of this book completely for it's opportunistic behavior. Have you ever heard the phrase BAIT AND SWITCH? BUYER BEWARE? Well, that should be the heading for all her recommendations if they are all like the Apricot hotel in Istanbul. My advise to the author, have a chat with the guy who wrote the Frommers Italy book, you can learn alot from him.

Good but Mystifying
A great book one of the best I have ever read, one of the best ever written. It made me laugh and feel sorry for this troubled, truthful character who will never leave my memory. The banning of this and any other books is absurd. The author should be able to express his feelings in any way that he feels it no matter if he wants to use bad language or sex or whatever. It's his right. I am writing a book now and am taking no crap from anybody on how to write it because it's my own creation. And it shouldn't be banned from schools because kids should be able to read any book that they want even if they don't really understand. I was eleven or twelve when I first read it and found it funny and sad then. I still do. But someone please help me--what does it all really mean? Is there some hidden meaning behind everything? What exactly is Salinger trying to say here? If anyone has a guess e mail me please.

Great Item for the price!
I looked at some of the more expensive choices and decided to go with the this one because of the reviews. Some people mentioned the challenge of the install. Now I'm the strongest man at 44yrs but I'm fit if you need a hand it would make it easier. I found it very easy to do all by myself. It only took me 5 minutes to install. I used the bed of the truck(use something between bed and tailgate) on a 90 degree angle to line up the hole on the tailgate. The trickiest part is when you have to rotate the tailgate to a 10 o'clock 4 o'clock angle to get the rod to the right placement. The instruction short and simple. Follow Them! It only takes 2 fingers to close. On the lowering it only slows it a little but feels very light if you lower by hand.

The final nail in the coffin for Metallica
St. Anger is easily the biggest disappointment of 2003. I laugh at the people who actually think this album is good, most of them are just in denial and can't deal with how bad it is. I know that Metallica tries to do their own thing and not care what anyone thinks of them. However, they should've cared what the fans thought and gave them what they wanted. Instead, they try to ressurrect their old sound in the wrong way and fail miserably. The production is awful, Lars sounds like he's clanging on metal. The vocals are done in one take, so Hetfield sounds like a sick crocodile. The worst transgression though, is that there are NO GUITAR SOLOS. Metallica just isn't Metallica without solos. Metallica had already started to die when they created Load. Now they are officialy dead and old news.

CANNOT RECOVER THE FAXES!
I bought the Panasonic KX-FP151 6 months ago, and it beeps all the time, until I realized that the "cover open" signal was on and how kind of it to "store my fax in memory" only to learn that I would never see my important fax. Apparently a plastic tab inside the cover had snapped off... According to the technician at 1-800-HELP-FAX (very helpful indeed!) my unit was "out of warranty" only six month warranty, but on the ... web site page when I purchased it, it says 1 year warranty. The fax worked well until the plastic tab broke. Poor workmanship. I only opened the cover two times to change the ink ribbon. I will not purchase Panasonic products again. The machine was a good bargain, but what is the point if I have to purchase one every 6 months. Is this considered a "disposable" fax machine? I know they make disposable cameras.What a good idea! Be sensible and reconsider.

No improvement in 07, lot of missing game parts
I got TW PGA06 for a penny and enjoyed it. I jumped on version 07 hoping to get all the bell and whistles of the marketing hype of easports, especially the practice stuff. Well, there is none of that on the PC version. You have to get on e of the console version. And be careful, not all of them got all features. EAsport is very bad at documenting which feature is in which version. 07 as an improvement of 06, I would have hoped to get these features. But not, there nothing new: changed a few textures (I think they were better in 06, but that's a question of taste), more people watching you (need more processing power), new courses, and that's it. Easy money for EA. Do not buy this as an 'upgrade' of 06. There isn't anything new, except for your wallet.In addition, when you read about it in forums (EAsport included), there are numerous players who experience numerous problems. Stick to version 2006, it works great.

The Pizza Book
We had this book about 15 years ago but lent it out to someone. It was never returned so we had to replace it. There is not a better pizza book on the market. Small, simple to follow directions. We especially like the flavored crust recipes. We also liked that the book explained pizza was traditionally made with the sauce on top of the cheese instead of under. That way the hot cheese doesn't pull off and drop on your chin. This book is well worth the money. Should be put back in print. When we originally bought it we paid approx $26.00. I see now it goes for as much as $132. online. You can find a better deal on Amazon.

Thanks for the memories!
Man, this brings back memories. I got this when it first came out in... '94? I can hardly believe it now. Loved it with a very deep and abiding passion. Even wrote the band a letter (yes, a letter!) and they wrote back. How cool is that? Doesn't happen anymore. Just checked out the previews now, hasn't lost it's appeal. Real distinctive sound, a perfect match to the name. White Birch was also good but Frigid Stars is definitely the one to get. There was so much great music back then... blows my mind. People compare this to Slint but if you like this you should also check out the mighty Bitch Magnet and Seam (Sooyoung Park's next band). Some real similarities there... Such cool and unusual music. Good times!

I think this is a very good CD. Definetly worth getting.
This CD is very good. It has 17 tracks. All very good. In case you didn't know, MxPx is a Christian punk rock band. Compared to some of their other albums, Teenage Politics for instance, it's basicly the same kind of music. In this album they sing more about life in general. Hence the name. Some of the main things they sing about are girls, their hometown Bremerton, and of course, growing up. As in Teenage Politics, they also sing a lot about government and politics. There is no swearing or crude language in this CD. Don't let the mohawked hair or the earings fool you into thinking that they are stupid teens trying to get public attention. At first you may think they sound exactly like Green Day, but MxPx's lyrics are worth listening to, unlike Green Day's.

The hell ??!!
I've heard some wack stuff in my life. But this is ....I heard "sprung" on the radio {this is one of the reasons I don't listen to it that much} What possessed that fool 2 make a song off of that situation ??!! Thats like confessin 2 the world "I'm whipped" Nothin 2 brag about. When I heard "I'm in luv" I instantly knew it was the same clown. EVEN before the ridiculous chorus. I rode out of town with a couple friends {Female} and was exposed to this poison. His voice is synthesized on most {if not all} tracks. The subject matter on which he sings is str8 up stupid. It gets MUCH dumber than the singles. {Hard 2 imagine I know} This is the BIGGEST blow to music since 50 ruined the rap game. Yet its excepted. Sometimes I'm ashamed of my people.

Unless you love endless climbing descriptions: Slow , plodding, dull. Terrible ending.
I'm not sure where all these 5 stars reviews are coming from. I read this book on a plane and found myself skimming/skipping large chunks of the book. I have climbed. But I'm not a fanatic, and I'm certianly not an expert by any means. Maybe if you're a climbing addict and have climbed El Cap yourself, you'd love all the ad nauseum climbing description which is a majority of the book. I frankly found it zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Like get on with the plot/story already! You're boring me!!! Also, sometimes I felt I had no idea visually what was being describing re: their environment when they finally find Cuba 3/4 through the book...which by the way, was when it finally started to pick up and get interesting. All that was then dashed by the absolutely crappy ending which I felt was unbelievable, stupid, and a little bit out of nowhere. I threw the book in the trash. I really should give it a 1.

Great Movie
I saw this movie a long time ago on tv. And was hooked. I thought I must have this movie. The next time I found out that it was going to be on tv, I recorded it. Then sometime later, the tape got wrecked and it was un-watchable. For awhile I looked and looked for this movie and could not find it. Then looking at a music store one day, I happened to find it. Even thought it had been quit a while since the last time I had seen the movie. When I watched it, it was like I just saw it yesterday. It made an impression on me from my childhood. I never watched the movie for good acting, special effects or anything like that. I watched it just for the sake of watching it and enjoying it. In my opinion, I think if you go about analyzing movies all the time. You are going to miss out on some great movies. Because their will be somthing about the movies that you won't like. And you won't give them a chance.

Fantastic
I was seriously taken aback by how much i enjoyed this cd. I didnt do what i normally do and listen to snippets beforehand. I wanted to see if could get a cd and just enjoy it straight from jump. I did in a big way with Kerosene. Miranda Lambert is a seriously talented artist and just as good songwriter. She has a hand in almost every song on the whole cd and i can't help but feel that touch on all of the songs on her debut cd. I know that it did well overall not that it would have mattered. i still would have made the choice to purchase this cd by a stunning up and coming artist no frills, no gimmicks or anything just natural talent and that is why i really enjoy not only Kerosene but music in general. You have a new fan in me Miranda. Keep on doing what you love and people will be there to buy it.

Great sound for the money.
This is an amazing value. I was all set to purchase the same system on eBay when I checked Amazon. Not only was the price as low as any listing on the auction site, but it included shipping at no cost.The system was very well packed. Someone put a lot of thought into getting this product from China to my house without damage.Setup was a breeze. No need to get your kids to show you how to connect the speakers. Well thought out. The calibration process using the enclosed microphone was positively excellent.The sound overall is very good. Probably not up to Bose, but then consider the cost differential. My one complaint is the disk changer. Loading more than one disk is verrrry slow. So slow that I thought the system was defective. Had to drag out the kid to figure it out. This is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.Cocolalla, Idaho

Disastrous - click to the next book option - NOW!
I'll hand it to the cover designer for hoodwinking people into buying this utterly useless and predictably gay "book." The romance aspect - predictable, the gay aspect - predictable, the nursing aspect . . you get the picture. Terribly written and clearly used for this "writer's" ego boosting. He doesn't make it past page 20 when he HAS to mention the size of his penis - in the context of telling another syrupy "had to have been there" story, of course. Can it get any more gay than that? Why not just take an ad out on Craigslist and brag there? What gay man didn't have a "fag hag" in college? This alleged heartwarming and charmer of a book is a waste of paper and your eyesight. I'm embarrassed for this guy and anyone who writes that they liked it.

Ugh Don't Read
This book is seriously bad. I'm baffled by some of these good reviews. The story seemed interesting at first, but it is horribly written. It is not interesting and for literally 150 pages it's just "I went to work loaded", "i bought some crack", "i bought some more crack." The writing style and skills of the author are horrendous. Most chapter-ish things end with "Little did I know that wouldn't be the last time I made that mistake." Dun dun dun. Please. It's like fifth grade writing. And I also agree with others questioning its accuracy. The whole custody battle seems very odd - I highly doubt the state would force children to go into foster care when blood relatives want them, and then she says she keeps a job even though she sleeps on the floor and comes in drunk. I don't know about that. I'm kind of mad that I wasted my time reading this inane book.

Tedious, vulgar
At over a thousand pages this book is tedious, even for the verbose Clancy. Profanity abounds, as does sex, neither for any useful purpose except to add pages. Three or four hundred pages could be deleted and not affect the story. Even when the story finally gets interesting in the last quarter of the book, it is not up to Tom Clancy standards. The war is too simple and too easy. The American techno-whiz-bang makes the whole thing a "no contest". While American technology really is amazing, to believe that there would be virtually no casualities is not believable. The few American losses appear to have been thrown in at the last minute. We just shot down 60 Chinese airplanes? Hmmm, maybe the good guys should lose a plane, too! Definitely not up to the quality of his early works.

work with Window 2000 on ThinkPad
I got this yesterday. My IBM thinkpad T40 is running window 2000 and it does not work with 2000. T40 has a built-in bluetooth. I downloaded a new "Bluetooth Place" software from IBM to T40 and it works now. Excellent performance. No lag time. I left T40 on before going to bed. When I got up in the morning, T40's mouse point moves right away after I touched this mouse. It behaves exactly as a wired mouse. Only one problem so far, it is too big. I could barely hold it. It is ridiculous.

Excellent Book to Read
Twilight is an excellent book to read. It is highly descriptive and always seems to have a very good cliff hanger everytime it is possible. It is one of those books that keeps you up late at night telling yourself "just one more chapter". It is highly entertaining, so readers of any age will adore it. I highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of realistic fiction, action, romance, fantasy, and just a hint of mystery. Twilight does, however, have some bad qualities. It shows new sides to the world we live in, and not everyone wants to read about them. Also, it is sort of a 'dark' book. Those who really don't like anything even a tiny bit scary probably won't enjoy it. But, Twilight is a wonderful book to read and I know I loved it. And I know that most you will too!

The best expansion for EQ
Verant finally has shown there is more than just Kunark. The Ruins of Kunark was good... Scars of Velious is BEST. This expansion is very well done. The art is exceptional, with the snow areas being shown in a most realistic fashion. This expansion also brings out the concept of grouping with others. For some this is a detriment, for others it is a welcome venture. For those who are solo players, this is not for you. Most creatures are designed too tough an obstacle for one person to take down. For those who like to group, this is a dream land. XP is given very well for even grouped folks, but made so a solo character will not see much XP gain for the creatures they will be able to defeat. I myself am a grouping person so I found this an exceptional buy. I thought kunark was good, then I bought Velious.

Surprisingly Hilarious
I decided to buy this movie, because I saw Carrot Top at the MGM Grand back in November of 2001. He was totally hilarious and darn cute as well. So, I took a chance and got this movie. Alot of times, when you see someone in person - i.e. a comedian - and then see the same person in a movie, disappointment sets in. However, this movie is an exception. I found it very funny and surprisingly well written. Scott "Carrot Top" Thompson was totally charming as well as a pretty good actor in his part as the unique inventor - Edison. I laughed my head off at most of the movie. Especially loved the elevator scene. Well worth more than just one viewing, that is for sure. Think I'll go watch it again.....

Electronics do not work
Bought this for my sons for Christmas. Very disappointed that I couldn't get it to work. Took it back and got another one. Still won't work. Not clear why. Took the back apart to see if there was an obvious loose wire. No luck! I took it apart and did the clicks and all, put it back together. Checked and replaced the batteries. If it didn't cost so much, kids could keep it and just play on it. One good thing, these reviews. At least I won't waste more time working on it, if it really won't work.

CUBA IS NEXT
I just received Dude, Where's My Country and I read it in record time. From cover to cover (pardon the cliche), I was astonished and angered and filled with hope and in the end motivated. I felt like I was intentionally held in the dark for too long. I have followed Mr. Moore since I saw the movie Roger & Me. I have yet to be misled. I am grateful for a country that lets his voice be heard, but I am disgraced by a country that silences or disregards so many other voices in the name of greed and capitalism. A democracy is for the people, why did we kill 6000 of Iraq's people in order to install a Democracy (that doesn't sound like we had the Iraqi people in mind). Not one of the 9/11 hijackers were Iraqi. Fifteen of them were Saudi's. How have the Saudi's suffered since 9/11? Not at all, for the full story, tap into this book. You will be glad you did.

Great product so far
I purchased rather expensive "blue" microfiber waffle weave drying cloths for my car. I use them along with my California Water Blade to clear water off my car. Over time they would no longer absorb water. I tried washing them in the washer using regular detergent. I never used dryer sheets. Nevertheless they lost their ability to pickup water. I did some research and found this product mentioned as being good for microfiber fabrics. I tried it and I was amazed how much dirt came out of the fabric. I let them hang dry instead of using the dryer. I was very pleased that the product does work and my drying cloths can once again absorb water easily. I would give the product a Five rating except I have only used the product one time. To be fair, nothing will dry a car completely if the metal is really cold.

What you see is not what you get.
My pup loves this item.But I was disappointed. The advertising is deceptive. The picture for the product shows two of the kneecaps and it is not shown in the packaging. It says that the items are 3-4 inches each. Farther down the page, it says that the item is 8 oz. It never says how many there are. The advertising implies that there are 2 kneecaps that are 3-4 inches each. Wrong! You get one kneecap for $6.00. Finally, the ad says that it weighs 8 oz, the package says 2.5 oz and the actual weight is 6 oz.I will not buy another Jones product for my animal and will be very cautious when purchasing anything from NYC Pet Supply and fulfilled by Amazon.You can buy Ranch Reward 5 pack for $9.99 ($1.99 ea) here at Amazon. That will be my next purchase.

DEFECTIVE!! CAN WE GET A ZERO STARS OPTION???
I highly urge those searching for a good quality processor to run the other way when you see this one. The service from Amazon has been excellent in assisting me, because I have had to continuously return the processors. They NEVER work! And the same one is not being shipped back to me, I just keep getting defective processors! There needs to be a recall on this, & they need to completely redesign the interior of this model. It's cute on the outside, but it's good for nothing but taking up counter space. The first one worked for about 5 seconds. The second one NEVER came on at ALL. It is beyond frustrating. I thoroughly read the manual, knowing that some of the reviewers said their food was pulverized, so I followed instructions for using either a blunt or sharp side of the blade where proper, but it never worked long enough for me to try it out! I wish I could rate zero stars on this one....

But, where's the rum?
I am giving the movie 2 stars, just to be nice. My closest friends have the DVD, and saw it in theaters 13 times. Yes, 13. I saw it twice in theaters, I was dragged persay, and I found it unbearable to get through the second time. At first, I wasn't real into seeing a movie of pirates. It just isn't my thing. People said the movie was humorous, but really I didn't get any of the humor in the movie. The best part was the end with the monkey at the rolling credit. However, according to my friends it was one of the best movies of the year, so don't take my opinion for it. My friend has her brain into writing fan fictions of pirates. I don't know if the movie was so wonderful because of the hunkalicious Johnny Depp, who I don't find very handsome, or what. However, the actors did a good job, Johnny and Orlando, and any female will start drooling over the presence of these two males. I didn't though. They just aren't my type.

Book about Corran! (need i say more)
As a person of suprior intelligence. I can honestly say this is the best Star Wars book ever written.(Zahn fans breath its okay...really) I love the perspective you can get from first person. It eleminates all the jumping around from the Empire then back. Corran is a great character with a lot of depth he has a real back ground and dosn't just seem to appear out of no where. I also love all the action in this book. it's very suspenseful. And oh my gosh one author is acully not afraid to let Luke make a few mistakes. He actually seemed like a real person in this one instead of a Mthylogical Mistical Hero who no one can touch. Micheal Stockpole also does a great job with Mara Jade.(in my opinion the first person to do this since Timothy Zahn). He also gives us a unique look at the jedi and thier heritage. Don't miss this book it is a classic. Parsecs of any of the other novels!

What happened?!?!?!
Britney Spears was very popular when I was a kid. My sister gave me her first 2 albums (which by the way were great!) They were fun, had good songs, and good albums for a young girl. When I got this album I was to young to understand some things. Now I understand everything clearly. When I listen to this CD today, I think to myself "What kind of a song is BOYS?! That is the most stupidest, weirdest song on her album!" Along with I'm a slave 4 u. Uh, get real, Britney. Those are inappropriate songs that I don't think kids parents would want them listening to. I know my parents aren't a fan of them. It's kinda like rap. It's not the best music out there. Even though it's everywhere..you don't need to like it. So, you dont need to like Britney and some of her songs because it's not all that good. But if you like her, I don't care . Go ahead and buy her CD!

Suprised that its also a sleep aid
Use this as a castor oil pack and its great. But I realized that anytime I use it, I sleep through the night like a baby. It's amazing for people who need help sleeping. I've recommended it to a few others, and they agreed it worked for them too. I also use it in my deep conditioner's for my hair. I can't use any on my skin, but that's okay. The benefits from the castor oil packs, and hair are more than enough. For an awesome deep conditioner, I use castor oil, mayo, egg, and coconut oil. AWESOME. My hair is so conditioned, its amazing. Thank God!!!

Finally some substance to go along with our sex!
Romance today, whether you classify it as "erotica" or merely "romance" and more often than not, has sex in it now. Personally, I love it. I do not love it, however, at the expense of a good plot surrounding those sex scenes. This story has it all. I had read through three quarters of the book before I truly became conscious of the fact that the lead characters had not yet slept together. It was not that they were not sharing hot, sexy, intimate moments. They simply had not "gone all the way" yet. This story had depth to it. Also, it was completely believable. I don't want to get into specific instances because you can read other reviews for that.

smooth as silk
I'm a photographer and I got to the point that I was putting together some 50 photos a week. I was using a Olfa disposal blade utility knife, cutting rule and self healing mat. Trimming down 50 prints meant 200 sides which took some time. I decided that I needed a Rotatrim Pro 18 inch cutter. Oh man did it trim time off of that step, plus it's really fun, yes fun to use. I always get perfectly squared cuts with the self sharpening blade. One thing I really like is the plastic clamping strip which holds the paper down as your making your cut. It as a molded bead running down the length of the strip, and when you slip the print to be cut under the strip and line the edge of the print with the transparent bead and make a cut, you get a 7/16 white edge. For me, that's perfect for putting the print behind a mat window. I find all kinds of uses for it in the shop. I don't cut heavy board with it as I use a mat cutter for that. I give it 5 stars only because there is no 6.

WORST Video Ever!
Seriously did the people that gave this 5 stars actually watch it?!?!I like the idea of a video of babies and nursery rhymes so I bought the video in a dollar bin somewhere. My babies actually did enjoy watching it. They like the babies and the movement is slow so I feel okay with them watching it. But the video morphing the the mouths moving is awful. At least get a mouth that is the same skin color as the baby please! and the video is just a still picture of a baby with the mouth moving, the eye blinks are animated and look very unreal. Plus the music is not good. The melody is fine but when they add harmony it is HORRIBLE!! The two singers aren't even singing in the same key and it hurts my ears to listen, and I don't want my babies hearing that awful singing either. I will never buy another video from this line again, I'm very glad that I didn't pay a lot of money for it.

Deadhead 101
Dear God, please put this on Heaven's jukebox.What is Dark Star? THE qunitessential acid-rock voyage. A band of hippies attempting to transcend reality. From the first few notes off Phil's bass to the monumental peak before the second verse (over twenty mintues later) this version of Dark Star is unmatched. Every member at their best, entwined in ecstasy. NAILING every twist and peak. Jerry Garcia loved this version. So far beyond the countless other versions I've heard. You'd swear there was a higher power at work on that stage.You don't have to be on drugs to enjoy this disc. Just into improvisation. Followed by Saint Stephen and a rollicking, super-charged The Eleven, the Dead never sounded tighter, more direct. Plugged into your synapses. Toying with you. Ear candy.Obviously beloved by Deadheads. I recommend this for any fan of live music. It simply cannot be done better.
