Latest Car Reviews
VW need to get their act together it seems to me that we are getting the rubbish imported in to this country never again another VW.
The ride is very comfortable, solid and smooth. Long journeys are a breeze in this car. It still gets admired and looks good. Luxury interior. Very reliable. Great for overtaking, powerful and fast. Luxury car for a great price..
nice car to drive, pity about so many problems, vw would want to get there electrics in order. vw dealer would not order parts unless paid cash in advance, would not accept cheque card. Belgard motors.
Very happy with car (estate) but VW dealers know how to charge!.
It is a really big comfy holdall. you can drive it all day and still feel fresh. it is not peppy, easy to park or much fun though. the dealers are shockingly bad which would put me off getting one again, but if I were it would be a diesel..
very good car love them..
Never buy a VW again!.
Sturdy, well built car with a good interior and great sound system (when hooked up to the CD player). Not bad spec with the 2000 model but VW could be more generous. 1600 engine is a little light and removal of 1.8 option in the current line-up seems to be short-sighted - not everyone will want to opt for a 2.0. A 1.8 Honda Accord would appear to be a better bet with much more performance and better equipment. Dealer|s look for too much money for second hand cars. Heard of 1 dealer looking for 500 Euro for a routine service. The trade has good value, good warranties (with Lumley) and would be the place I would go for a 1.8T or recent TDI (130)..
good with faults mostly the fault of the dealer.
great car 50 miles per gallon. fast car with 130 bhp under bonnet a real haed turner.
Would definately buy a diesel engine next time..
Stylish interior however VW charge a fortune for any extras, Comfortline model is well worth the extra few quid as it does provide a lot more comfort....
I am on my second Passat from new and I would definitely consider trading for the new model.
Automatic diesels are hard to come by so this Passat came along at just the right time. Was not looking for a V6 but it was fully loaded (heated leather, climate, tiptronic, 6 cd changer, alloys to name a few) and came in on budget. Performance is phenomenal and fuel economy, while not being as frugal as the 1.9 would have been, is still great..
excellent car.
Insufficient colours available.
fantastic car otherwise. Loads of room, front and rear, huge boot. loads of power when you need it. looks great..
Fine car but completely underpowered.Lovely to cruise in but overtaking is poor.Engine is too smal for the body size. Ignition is badly place as I keep turning on the wipers. Cup holders are also badly placed. Good boot.Roomy & comfortable car.
I have the Passat Highline estate 152 plate - the best part is the adaptive cruise control - brilliant for motor way commute.. downside is the seats, and its only a 1.6 engine when I was used to the 2lt car before. Really economical, and with auto wipers and lights, its an easy commute car..
Solid, comfortable and reliable Car. Unfortunately current resale / trade in value does not reflect its true value against similar size or age or cost car such as a japwreck Avensis..
Suspension arms wear too quick, as do track rod ends and cv joints. very expensive to do timing belt. parts alone €250. Twice indicator unit blew as i was turning off main road and cars behind me doing 50-60 mph. That was a little scary..
Very slow and thirsty. Brakes and handling are also poor Excellent comfort and space. Servicing expensive Would try 1.8T next time.
comfort easy to drive, crap to park looks great with black win plus alloys.
These are costly cars but they have a solid build, a great feeling of security and very comfortable on a long run. Will change for a newer model soon as mileage is now 42K and I|m not sure how reliable these cars are when you get up to the higher mileage, unlike the Japanese cars..
poor seats for passangers on long journeys ie 200 mls plus.
keep clear of 1600 ,car too big & heavy very slugish.over all not happy cant wait too get rid.
keep clear of 1600 ,car too big & heavy very slugish.over all not happy cant wait too get rid.
Fantastic car - would like to buy another!.
v good all round.
For: Economy is excellent. Have got over dealer spec of 49mpg on country runs. Very comfortable! Plenty power. Against: extras are options with VW. Low front end so have to crawl over speed ramps..
in general it has been a good car with little to complain about, but for some unknown reason it drinks engine oil, it also uses syntethic oil the car like most german marques is very badly equiped, and hence is bad value for money. the main reason that i would not buy another is lack of v.w. dealers..
A bad buy, a bad experience, I would never buy a Passat again.
Not impressed with dealers; pricing of services, complete lack of focus on customer support.
on top of all this the remote locking never worked. I have been driveng different VW|s for years but wouldnt go for another passat after al this hardship.
getting crap money on trade in unless i go back to VW. German built my ass. its not even nice to drive. Ive ordered a new 04 156 jtd 140 bhp. Its 3 grand cheaper than basic vw . long live the italians. the worst 2 motoring years of my life. Dealers are arrogant also. tried to screw me on warranty items. NO NO VW.
good car..
A great reliable work horse of a car, built like a Sherman tank. Very powerful & comfortable for long journeys however with the 1.8T model you can almost see the fuel gauge dropping. I would like to see VW look towards more economy for the Passat similar to what Toyota did when they introduced their vVTI engine. As a last point more options as standard on VW|s would be really appreciated..
could do with more extras as standard.
As with all VW|s the Passat has a very bad Spec for the price. Even the Highline model has no alloys as standard! Cop-on VW! 389Euro for a 14000ml service with just filters and oil changed! I|d hate to see the price when it needs brakes!!.
The interior seat material (grey) is really hard to keep clean as dust and 'bits' really show up very easily. Would want to vacuum it every 3 days or so. Get leather if you can afford it!.
150bhp.very fast, 0-62 mph in 9 seconds(faster than saab 93/BMW 318i/mercs), would wheel spin in 1st and 2nd. tricky in wet weather, the car was a real hand full when driving flat out..
Good performance Extremely exonomical Suspension is very soft and requires care when driving on poor country roads..
Over 1 year this car has cost me nearly 2000 euro in repairs. Locks seem to be the most common problem. Never again!!!!.
Came across from england. Not sure if its because of english spec but never managed to hit the road on extremely bad and uneven surfaces while being driven hard. Extremely economical and fully loaded. Can buy full loaded passat for price of standard passat in Rep. Includes traction and climate. 115bhp. Extremely happy at 13500 euro with 65000miles.
I was sceptical of the 4 cyl TDI until I drove it. This car has exceptional performance and it handles like a dream. Their is no doubt that I will be keeping this car for a long time and if I do need to replace it, I will get another one..
This is the worst car i ever had. the Diesel version is much better. I would not by another petrol volkswagen..
biggest pile of shit i have ever had. Never buy a passat..
everyone who like this car should buy the 1.9 TDI, its faster and cheaper to run..
Very reliable car. Interior could be improved on. Only electric windows for passsenger and driver, No centre console in this model..
I find this car very powerful,comfortable,classy looking with leather interior and wallnut dash a great car all roung and great value for money,would buy another Passat in the future ..
Very comfortable rid. spacious interior, quite engine, large boot size. cruise control option for long drives in the country would have been usefull feature. Overall very satisfied with Passat..
...it was badly prepared before delivery. One bad mark to the dealer. In the past three months it has spent more time in their workshop than my old Bora (sold after 150.000 very pleasant miles)did in 4 years!! Then, there's the car itself. Do not buy one if your kids are subject to car sickness - the suspension would make a sailor turn green (they call it "Comfort". Try an Audi A4 on a twisty road, THAT'S Comfort!). It drinks Diesel like it was going out of fashion -- 450 miles per 60 litres, that's 30% more than the Bora on the same engine and the same usage. She's noisy in an annoying kind of way. I had planned to get the new Passat Variant after this one -- I'm seriously reconsidering Volkswagen altogether..
If there is anybody out there who has had similar problems and, even better, has them sorted, please e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com Thanks!.
This has been a dependable car for the most part. Still having alignment issues. I know someone else with a 2002 Passat that has similar alignment problems..
The only good thing about this car is the engine,1.8T 150BHP, I added a full air intake upgrade so running a little under 160BHP, but being a Highline spec I got alot of extras, but that does not make up for my overall rating of this car. Dont mind about the fuel consumption as it can get 36MPG driving it carefully. The handling of this car is horrific, back end steps out at low speeds and especially when wet. The suspension seems to be made of custard, it's too soft and bottoms out frequently. Basically it's an old man's/ woman's car and I cant wait to get rid of it, what a mistake buying it, never again! Think twice!.
I always wondered when i saw people unlocking the doors on some golfs and passats the old fashioned way,with a key even on 04'05'modals because they are not fitted with R.C.L, some people slag of the french cars but they have R.C.L on their base modals the same size as golfs and passats.VW should have a look on how citroen build suspensions for the C5. PASSATS ARE OVER RATED..
They must put engine more that 1600 CC.
Excellent car, good spec on the Highline model with a winter and tech pack included. Great power from 130bhp TDi, but efficient (55+mpg)on open road..
Very reliable, safe and comfortable. Ideal family car, excellent fuel economy:45mpg. Steady on the road..
Superb handling in all road conditions. great gas discharge headlights and heated seats, Montreal alloys. Tyres at 2 and 2.1 bar pressures. Ecconomical - 44 mpg - 52 mpg..

Nice car to drive, good overall power. suspension too soft though and too many problems..
Clean & well designed inside. Very nice engine. It just loves to go. Fantastic pulling power at low revs, great fuel economy, shocking acceleration, lots of gadgets. Gotta love that 6th gear..
Realised all expectations. Wonderful automatic. Internal climate system is superb. Did over 600 miles in one fill. Next time with cruise control..
Still a good car......
I love the car with all the extras. It's economical and so far reliable. But I'm serious when I say this don't touch a UK Import without and history. If it does have a history still check it out through www.dvla.gov.co.uk.
The dealer nor VW Ireland were of no help what so ever !!.
Very comfortable and very sturdy. Excellent handling. Was easily able to avoid a near crash situation by severe swerving. Car gripped road in the wet and abs was working overtime. No worse on petrol than any other car with similiar engine. Getting approx 320miles to the tank with mix of city and motorway driving. Tends to wheel spin in first if you go for too quick a getaway. Also a little delay from hitting the accelerator to car actually moving. Can be dodgy on busy roundabouts - but a minor fault for shadowed by overall quality..
Mighty car, very quick and excellent MPG. The 150BHP Engine pulls wery well..
Can't comment on VW dealers, bought from SAAB dealer with 12mths warranty, luckily this covered the gearbox/flywheel. SAAB service is v.good. Great car to drive, but basic and has depreciated by 8k in 6 months thanks to the new model. Am apprehensive about reliability in the long term. Will probably change marque for the next buy..
Really nice car, well impressed. Its my first passat and definitely not my last.
although the car is nice to look at and is comfortable to drive, the engine components are very soft, and as i use mine as a taxi i wouldnt drive another passat if i got it free....
Very sturdy, lovely to drive, good acceleration in 110bhp diesel engine, reasonably echonomical.
There a miser on Juice. Good handling. would def go for red eye next time a bit of extra poke. the 90bph tad dead. as ususl VW skimpy on the radio and extras.
service details were available by getting intouch with vw.
good reliable car.
I bought the car in 2000 in a private deal so value was better than from a delaer where they can be pricey. It is very comfortable and the firm seating and allignment of the pedals and steering ideal for anyone with a back problem, as I have. The comfortline model is worth the extra price, with the climatronic air conditioning being excellent. The 1.8 is surprisingly economical..
This is my secound 1.8T Passat. First was bought new in 1999, 2nd 1993. I think the 1.8T engine is suspect to breakdown. 1999 spent 3 weeks in hogans, cost 1300 Euros. Loads of parts replaced only to find a small pipe was the cause. Disaster. Lucky it was a company car..
Very good car on the road, very stable and solid feel. Comfortable and spacious. Consuption depends on your driving style and can get too high..
Originally a UK car so very good spec compared to Irish versions. Great performance especially with a custom remap to 192BHP so looks like the family wagon but will leave most cars struggling to keep up. My last car was a diesel so im really aware of the fuel economy or lack of but for performance and comfort its more than enough..
excellent car hands down!!.
The engine is the best part. This model has aged so much with the arrival of new model. Standard equipment is very poor and all extras are so expensive..

Very comfortable and Fuel efficient. Dealer service is excellent. This is my third Passat in 3 years.
Great car - TDi engine is second to none. PD version in my 130 is a little thirstier than my previous 110bhp Bora but worth it for the power..
T-belt costs a fortune to replace. Speakers in back door have packed it in, an I hate the pool under the drivers seat. Gotta replace it, I've got tendonitis in my shoulder from the clunky gearbox..
Very good car. I imported mine from England at 30K on the clock. Now at 70K and no issues. Really comfortable and does something like 50 to the gallon or slightly over it. A bit hard on front tires. I use bridgestone which are good tires and they do about 15k on the front but apart from that it's a great car..
as above.
bought this car 12 months ago no probs what so ever. tdi engine a gem to pull a trailor.I have now 115000mile on the clock and am looking forward to 200000 miles. I do have a noise from the dash but thats it , seems to be a common prob.love this car.
the most expensive car i bought & the worst car ive owned...my old rusty escorts would have been more reliable.
very economical diesel good lift has done 126kmls drives like new,.
This car is a bucket. They can't all be this bad. Lively engine and reasonably comfortable but completely turned off VW by the constant problems. Will be buying Japanese next time..
much better than A4's and Nissan's.
very comfortable and very fast car and lovely interior but it has spent more time in the garage than on the road. I wont be buying another one..
Handles well, nice turn of speed for a big estate. Fuel consumption is terrible (about 26 - 28 miles per gallon), or around 550km per 60litre tankfull. If you buy one, get the oil changed at least every 15 miles km. Residual values very low, you'd be better off with the TDI..
Appart from the stuff I had to replace I loved the car. Wrote it off yesterday and off lookin for another one now..
looking forward to the passat cc..
Tell VW motor to stop this engine 1600 CC, No acceleration at all in this car. The sound system is too poor according to this car..
Very fast, comfortable,reliable and economical, on motorway 55 mls per gal,combined 47. Great car!.
Bought car from dealer in glassonwho brought it in from the uk, car was well serviced, well looked after, had 108k on the clock, motorway mile so she was well broken in for me, drives lovley, just over 600 miles to a tank of diesel(just less if run on biodiesel, but an awful lot cheaper). I am extremely happy with this car. the heated seats are beautifull. its only fault is that there is a strut across the boot limiting the amount of usable space(i cant load my bands PA system)..
Good road handling.
The 1600 petrol is underpowered and a bit noisy when pushed. But overall it is a very solid and comfortable car to drive..
Have car 4.5 years 176000 on clock, efficent 55mpg and comfortable, quick enough, but too many problems. Above problems cost 2000 in total to fix. Not main dealer.
Good car but poor residual values.
Leather Heated Seats Just Brilliant! You Get A lot Of Car For The Money! and Record Sales This Year! Simply Much Better than a Toyota Avensis Which Lacks Style and Design!.
as a family car, absolutely fantastic.both centre consol and glove box chilled,each door hols 1 litre bottle, compartment on drivers door for umberella,excellent boot space. Mechanically, the 2.0 tdi is great to drive,because of the 16v engine above idle very little engine noise, and revs much more freely than the old PD. at 18k miles service and genuine parts very reasonable,its very cheap to run , returning on average 45-50 mpg.Mine is very highly spec'd, only let down here is vw very stingy with standard kit. Highly advisable car to consider.ill buy the same again.
poor dealer service.
Model it replaced was 10 times better..
very reliable at all times.
engine is "bulletproof" so I've been told,never had any problems. Nice acceleration even if it is only 105BHP. Tons of space in the interior and boot. Great car all-round.
EXCELLENT all round.
very well built, is ahead of rivals like avensis.service on time ,top up oil between service , no big deal, should not let you down.
Powerful yet economic,answers any quistion asked of it..
Excellent Car.!.4 TSI petrol engine has 122 bhp very smooth no turbo lag .this vw engine beats diesels imo. highline spec outstanding..
very low on power.
very expensive to maintain once they increase in age. Time for it to go now and will prbably be replaced with a ford or seat.
have 130k up now, 22k of which i have done, its an english car and motorway miles. The car is very efficient on fuel, is very reliable, and i work it hard, drive it every day on both long and short journeys. i find that if something goes on the car, its best to get it sorted without delay. Overall i am very happy with the car. As far as i can see, if the car is looked after from new, there will be very few problems with them. Stay clear of the petrol models, they're demons on jiuce..
Its the 130bhp model, lots of poke. I bought it with 97k on clock with UK reg and now have 131k up. No rattles or knocks yet but I know if something goes wrong I'll have to fork out lots of twine. So far I can't fault it and would take a chance on another one.It did have a VW fsh and owned by a VW lease company. I verified the mileage by phoning the last service shop which was stamped in the book. A verified VW fsh would be a must if I buy one again. I put the condition of my present one down to this. So buy one but do your research on it before you part with your cash..
huge boot....fits my golf clubs and football gear... had it serviced for nct and it had one small problem. few people told me it was dodge buying VW but there have been zero problems. Dealer reliability. I would defo go for WOM Very good dealer and always was helpful. The other fella i was going to buy from didnt even ring me back. I have owned this car for the past two years now, and in comparison to other cars I have driven there really is none. It is a much bigger car to what I have previously experienced, and the engine size (1.9 Turbo Diesel) makes it a great car to drive. From a comfort viewpoint, it is second to none also. I was a little worried about the high mileage but being a previous company car, that large amount was expected, and the fact it was still in great condition made me confidant that it was a sensible purchase, and I have not been proved wrong. Driving sometimes is an exercise, but it is made easier in this car. Its suits all I do as is big and looks well when turning up to work meetings in terms of setting some sort of positive impression, and is more than big enough to fit me gaelic gear, golf clubs and other stuff no bother. Negatives – I am always asked to drive on weekends away..

excellant, could fit a citroen in to it. great make sure the timing belt was changed, especially after 70k. and don't buy anything less than 130bhp. oh don't get me started, realy crap, dealers in ireland should be burnt out. the best car i have ever had in my life, totally brill, great space, comfort and reliability with super power and good looks, i wish i still had her now, "miss you babe".
Good. Good local VW garage. Not sure, they still hold the value well. Good. Cool, great looking car with extras. Needs a bigger engine than a 1.6 for the size of this car. Not big enough for family with 3 small kids & all that goes with 3 small kids..
excellent. very loud on the bumps.....shocks?? anyone have any problems with their shocks.. none i know of so far. excellent Great car. Thinking of trading it in soon but it's so much nicer than most of its opposition. Very economical 45mpg on long runs..
Extremely expensive to maintain and not as reliable as people think. Warranty Directs yearly 'Reliability Index' proves this too despite what those clowns on Top Gear would have you believe. Lots of wear on front suspension, cv joints, cv boots, ball joints, arms and links all need maintaining or replacement regularly. Strong economical engine, some issues with EGR valve, injectors and air flow meters though. Servicing at VW dealers will bankrupt you..
Huge boot A few little issues but bullet proof otherwise. timing belt is an expensive job, every 60k miles, but shop around for prices. Imported cars need mileage check, very easy to clock these cars. if you looking for a 130bhp beware most people can't tell the difference by driving the car. The only way to check is to check in the boot beside the spare wheel, there is a sticker with the VIN number, it also have the KW rating if this is not 97KW its not a 130BHP. don't be fooled by at red DI on the boot or engine cover. GSF in dublin for parts avoid main dealers as they are a rip off. Very comfortable car, excellent for long journeys or the long daily commute. Always look for the comfortline with A/C, arm rest etc.
large boot i service and look after my own cars so not too bad any rattle or knoking from engine make sure t belt done and regular services na good solid comfortable car and not slow either.
Massive! The boot is huge and with the seats folded flat you could live in it. Service is pricey enough - I don't use a main dealer as I've 176k kms up on it so there's no point. Anytime I have gone to a main dealer I've come away a lot poorer. The one thing you should look out for but you can't is the injectors! There's four of them and so far two of mine have gone without warning! It's €1000 a pop to replace them and you have no way of knowing if or when they might go again. Bushes wearing are a common fault (failed my last NCT because of one). Rear wiper motor had to be replaced which again was not cheap. Just before Xmas 2010, I got a leak in the coolant system - steam everywhere. The replacement part is €100 and it takes 10 working days to get it!!! WTF? No car for two weeks because the dealer doesn't stock bog standard parts? Luckily a local garage was able to patch me up free of charge while waiting for the part. Apart from buying it from a dealer I've not been back to them except to get the major jobs mentioned above done. Like all VW dealers, they know how to charge for parts. Large comfortable car - mine is an estate. The Highline has plenty of extras like leather, cruise, heated seats etc. Performance is excellent and comfort on long or short journeys is second to none. I forgot to mention, it's also an automatic with the DSG gearbox which is super smooth. On average I'm getting 6.6l / 100km which is quite good for a big automatic car..

Wonders (1st-3rd)
Through inspirational stories, game playing, crafts and hands-on activities, our woodland campers will expand their nature awareness. Going on berry hunts, finding out what plants can heal us, learning our native trees, acting out and telling native plant stories, and fort building will grab at our natural curiosity, hone our natural intelligence, and help us feel at home in the woods.
Northwest Naturalists (4th-6th)
"Living off the land" is a phrase that describes how people have survived throughout much of human history. Even today, we still depend on what the Earth provides but it can be hard to see that connection with modern inventions like grocery stores and restaurants. During this week of camp, we will learn how to use our environment to obtain the things we need. From edible and medicinal plants, to basket weaving and fire-making, campers will come to view the forest through new eyes.
Don't Bug Out (1st-3rd)
Turn over logs, flip over rocks, dig in the mulch, investigate the compost pile, run through the meadow with nets and dip nets into the ponds – this is a short list of some of the ways we'll look for the diversity of insects and bugs living at the arboretum. We will build our very own insects, explore bug habitats and learn about the wealth of ways insects and bugs are beneficial to our lives.
Art in the Park (4th-6th)
Tap into our right brains during this week of camp and use your creative spirit to experience nature through various artistic mediums. What do giant sequoias look like in clay or Rhododendrons in watercolors? How can we make our vegetable garden a source of both nourishment and creative inspiration? How can we use a vegetable-palette to create edible masterpieces? Our wetlands, forests, meadows, ponds and trails abound with natural beauty. Campers will play, discover and inquire at the intersection of creativity and nature, the culmination of which will be an art show to share with their families.
Arboretum Detectives (1st-3rd)
Nature is full of mystery just waiting to be explored. Join us for this fun and exciting week of camp and bring along all of your powers of observation: your eyes to see with, your ears to hear with, your nose to smell with, your hands to touch with, and your mouth to taste with. If you like exploring the back yard, poking at animal scat or peering through binoculars and magnifiers, you will love this week. Each day will be dedicated to learning about and looking for a different taxa group: bugs, birds, mammals, mushrooms, reptiles and amphibians. This week is like one big scavenger hunt!
Arboretum Explorers (4th-6th)
Discoveries are made by those who seek them out. New species of plants and animals are still being discovered today, even in the Washington Park Arboretum. During this week –long scavenger hunt, you will learn skills and techniques used by explorers and scientists as we comb our 230 acre outdoor classroom for any and all signs of life. Campers will have the opportunity to learn from and talk to scientists who will share his or her profession with us through workshops and activities. Daily scavenger hunts will provide ample opportunities for campers to adventure through all the nooks and crannies of the Arboretum as well as gain a sense of place in a fun, hands-on way.
Tadpoles & Whirligigs (1st-3rd)
Seattle dries out in the summer time, but all plants and animals (including us) need water to survive – some more than others. During this week of camp we'll explore our ponds, streams and wetlands in search of animals that make their homes here: tadpoles & whirligigs for sure, fish, waterfowl, beavers, birds of prey, turtles and more!
Wetland Wildlife Rangers (4th-6th)
The living things in a wetland can be microscopic or over 3 feet tall with a giant frog piercing beak! Using tools to see above and below the water, you will get a chance to find, identify and study macro-invertebrates (arthropods big enough to see with the naked eye), birds like king-fishers and great blue herons, and big ole bullfrogs. While doing all of this, through games, activities and discovery, you will get to know how the wetland itself helps keep the wildlife, and us, living healthy.
Birds and Binos (1st-3rd)
Birds have so much to say – you just have to know how to listen and watch. We'll translate bird calls through games and role playing. Different parts of the bird have a lot to say too; beaks, eyes, feathers and feet can tell us what kinds of food a particular bird eats and how they get it. You will use binoculars to find, study, and identify our resident and migratory birds while hiking through the woodlands and wetlands of our amazing Arboretum.
Avian Adventures(4th-6th)
This week isn't just all about birds, it's about what the birds can teach us about our surroundings. Why do birds migrate? How do birds fit into a food chain or a food web? Why do birds act the way they do? You will discover the answers to these questions and more when you go hiking throughout the Arboretum using binoculars and your keen senses. Hone your Eagle eyes to spy the sparrow. Learn why the Junco chips or how the Great Blue Heron hunts or why raptors have tools other birds don't.

Anime & Manga
- Naruto has an interesting example of this. Itachi is by no means fooled into thinking he's working for the greater good or threatened into fighting for the big bads. He just wants to keep his baby brother safe and the best place to do that would be by infiltrating the Akatsuki and watching Konoha. He also prevented another ninja war by putting down the Uchiha rebellion, but by the time of the series he's almost certainly realized how much of that was Danzo manipulating him. It's very likely, though not explicit, that he was informed that if he preserved secrecy by following the script, he'd be allowed to leave Sasuke alive, but if he forced them to assign it to some other Anbu, they'd kill him, too.
- Magic Knight Rayearth's first Big Bad Zagato, who has kidnapped the princess and is destroying the world? Turns out the princess kidnapped herself so she could try to stop loving Zagato, and the destruction that's going on is the result of her inner turmoil. This is more of a case of "not wholly evil" than "good," however.. He may have been motivated by love and disgust for the corrupt system his world ran on, but he still did some things that are hard to describe as anything but evil, including trying to kill the Magic Knights (who are the only true innocents in the entire story and likely would have at least been sympathetic if he even tried to explain things), manipulating and lying to Ascot so he would be a loyal minion, allowing Alcyone to die from her battle wounds for her failures in the manga, etc.
- Dr. Franken von Vogler in Giant Robo. Made out to be a mad scientist responsible for a giant catastrophe 10 years ago by ignoring all risks and his fellow scientists in the experiment with the Shizuma Drive, it eventually turns out that he was the only one who opposed the project and the seemingly "good professor" was among the people who wanted to go through with it. All 5 of the inventors survived, but Vogler was believed to be dead, so the remaining 4 decided to cover the whole incident in lies and put all the blame on Vogler. Really no wonder why the Big Bad wants revenge.
- Laxus Dreyar in Fairy Tail. His attempt to take over the guild is nothing more than a teenage temper tantrum fueled by fear that he wasn't getting the proper credit for his accomplishments, always being compared to his grandfather (who is also the guildmaster). He tries to kill everyone in Magnolia Town with Fairy Law, a spell designed to target those the caster sees as enemies, and it doesn't hit a single person.
- Puella Magi Madoka Magica has an exceptionally sad example with Homura Akemi. It turns out she's a time traveler who knows all about Kyubey's ulterior motives for empowering teenage girls, and her sole reason for living is to try to keep Madoka safe. Unfortunately, circumstances conspire to make this a seemingly impossible task, no matter how many times Homura goes back to try to fix things. Her stoic (and at times, callous) demeanor hides the fact that she's rapidly approaching her Despair Event Horizon after watching her best friend die (or worse) dozens of times.
- In Bleach, Ichigo's Superpowered Evil Side turned out to not be evil at all, merely overprotective. It turns out the "Inner Hollow" was Ichigo's true Zanpakuto spirit all along, one that was formed with the remnants of a Hollow as its base. "Inner Hollow" only ever wanted to make Ichigo stronger and keep him safe.
- "Good" might be a stretch, but it turns out that Gin Ichimaru was plotting to take down Sousuke Aizen since his own childhood, becoming Aizen's right-hand man just to ensure he'd be in position when the time came to strike.
- Kill la Kill gives us Satsuki Kiryuin, who was introduced as a dictator who antagonized Ryuko at every turn. Everything she did was just to make Ryuko stronger and more prepared for what was to come. And to shape all of the Honnouji Academy students into a Badass Army that could take down the real villains.
- Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple: Saiga Furinji, previously touted as a major antagonist in the story, is revealed near the end of the manga to have been this, or at least Yami's greatest Token Good Teammate, especially considering the revelation that his wife's/Miu's mother's murder, which he'd previously been thought to be responsible for, was in fact carried out by an Evil Former Friend disguised as him.
- In The Circumstances Leading To Waltraute's Marriage, it turns out Loki's shady activities were his attempts to prevent Ragnarok, not start it.
- The Shitennou in Sailor Moon Crystal. All of them were Brainwashed and Crazy, but they were freed from it by the Sailor Soldiers. Unfortunately, they had a nasty price to pay for it, as they soon learn courtesy of an energy wave.
- The Book of Darkness from Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's was not only good all along but was actually the biggest victim in the entire season, possibly the entire franchise. All the problems they end up causing were because of bad programming rather than malice.
Comic Books
- I Kill Giants has the Titan. Initially believed to be the most powerful and most evil of giants, it turns out that the Titan is a being of near pure benevolence that only wants to help the main character deal with the trauma of her mother's impending death.
Fan Works
- Clash of the Elements: Gemini discusses this trope with Mallow in Part 2, more specifically referring to Domino when he does so.
- Avalon: The Angels ending up not having had the destruction of mankind as their goal, nor would accomplishing their goal have that as a biproduct. Jay, Kay and Shin also are revealed that be this, as their actions against NERV caused the needless war to come to an end sooner, with less lose of life and property in an attempt to prevent their Bad Future.
- Calvin and Hobbes: The Series has a rather ambiguous example: the final story has two distinct plots, one involving Slender Man and the other concerning the return of Thunderstorm and Shadow. The climax involves the Slender Man causing the latter two to disappear (it's never stated as to whether they were killed, but the final line of that chapter shows him waving to the heroes as they leave, his mission complete.
- Dean of the X-Trio in Pokeumans revealed himself to be one of Mew's agents, having worked his way into the heart of the Pokextintion organisation. It's a shame he had to do all sorts of terrible things to get there though.
- Maylus Revenge: Empress Roll.
- In Warhammer 40,000: Rise Of The Tau, the Orks turn out to be this. Gork and Mork (who are both Old Ones) were forced to turn them into insane savages to ensure their survival after the War in Heaven. They end up becoming valuable allies for the Imperium against the Tau. Also, Magnus the Red, who kept a part of himself untouched by Chaos so when the Emperor ascended, he was able to purify Magnus of the corruption and allow him to reunite the Primarchs for the final battle against the Tau and the C'tan.
- In the Pokeumans universe, one of Mr. X's dragons turns out to be an undercover Pokeuman agent. Who has had to do horrible, horrible things to innocent people and children to gain his trust, but can eventually tell the heroes crucial things about X's plan as a result.
- In Hocus Pocus, Winifred raises her former lover Billy (who she had murdered long ago) from the dead as a zombie, and orders him to chase the protagonists. Billy spends most of the film doing so, unable to talk because his mouth is sewn shut. When he finally cuts the stitches holding his mouth shut and manages to speak, he curses Winifred and starts helping the heroes, which was apparently what he intended to do from the start.
- In D3: The Mighty Ducks new coach Ted Orion rejects the Ducks' view of having fun, changes them from the Ducks to the freshman Warriors, strips Charlie Conway of his rank as team captain, and even goes as far as saying "The Ducks are dead!" The truth is he was trying to teach them "two-way hockey," master the art of defense, and mature their hockey playing. Then, he would give back their Duck jerseys. Charlie, combined with adolescence pains and resentment for Bombay "abandoning" them, misunderstood greatly and alienated himself from his friends. Then, Bombay revealed that Orion was on their side all along and that he told Orion how great Charlie really was. Orion proved all this when he accepted Charlie's return, and refused to let the Eden Hall Academy board withdraw their scholarships for poor performance, threatening to resign if they are expelled. Good thing Bombay was there to help. And not only did Orion return the team the Duck jerseys, but he also reinstated Charlie as team captain in the J.V.-Varsity Showdown.
- The twist of The Rock is that Hummel never intended to actually launch the gas into San Francisco and it was all a big bluff to force the Pentagon to pay money for the families of dead Marines. Sadly, Hummel realizes too late that many of his underlings were in this for the money and it causes a mutiny.
- In The Hateful 8 former southern marauder Chris Mannix tries to convince his fellow lodgers he's the new sheriff in a local town, but is unable to prove it. As it turns out, he's one of the few characters on the side of the law, and one of the few completely honest about their past.
- Scary Movie: In the 3rd movie, the aliens are in fact the good guys. They accidentally saw the tape from The Ring, and want to stop it from causing the deaths.
- Toward the end of The Wailing, Il-gwang calls Jong-goo to tell him that he made a terrible mistake when identifying the source of the evil in Goksung: the japanese stranger is not an evil spirit but a shaman like Il-gwang who desperately tried to stop the Woman in White Moo-Myeong who was the evil one. Il-gwang is lying; the Japanese man really is bad and so is he.
- In the Eternal Champion series, Ekrose (an incarnation of Elric) goes to war against the Eldren. He finds this trope applies to them, is torn by his loyalties but in the end kills the entire human race when they won't retreat.
- Aleister Crowley in R.A. Wilson's The Masks of Illuminati. He is made out to be the Big Bad of the novel, but all his crimes happen off-screen, and it turns out they didn't happen at all; either him in disguise, or his lackeys simply lied to the protagonist about them. His aim is to illuminate the protagonist by blowing his mind, as well as a benevolent equivalent of For the Evulz-thinking.
- Harry Potter series:
- Sirius Black for the majority of the third book is thought to be Voldemort's most loyal servant, the one who betrayed Harry's parents and ready to avenge his master. It turns out that in fact, he's completely innocent, the one who betrayed James and Lily is their other friend Peter Pettigrew aka Scabbers.
- Severus Snape is revealed to be good all along twice. Turns out everything he did in the books, he did while working for Dumbledore and following his orders, which includes killing Dumbledore, and all in the name of his unrequited love for Harry's mother, Lily, and the guilt he feels over his role in her death.
- When she is introduced in the ninth Haruhi Suzumiya novel, Sasaki is set up to appear as the title character's Evil Counterpart. However, it turns out that she really had no idea what was actually going on, and had no idea that her new friends were the real villains, and when the Masquerade gets broken for her, Sasaki secretly allies with Kyon to oppose those who wish to cause Haruhi harm.
- Jeremiah Paulson from the Dale Brown book A Time for Patriots seemed to be the leader of a Right-Wing Militia Fanatic group. Eventually, it turns out that he wasn't responsible.
- Mab is one of the most terrifying entities in the Fantasy Kitchen Sink world of The Dresden Files, never failing to freak Harry out whenever she appears. Sometime around the seventh book, the heros start to suspect she may have gone off the deep end. They are, understandably, very nervous about this, as she's a Nigh Invulnerable Physical God who the author confirms could Curb Stomp the entire White Council. Come Cold Days, however, and it's revealed that she protects our entire reality from being destroyed by Outsiders. She's still an extremely scary being, however.
- Thrawn and his Empire from the The Thrawn Trilogy were the antagonists that the heroes had to deal with in the first EU novels. The book Outbound Flight reveals that Thrawn was uniting the galaxy through an Imperial conquest to build up a strong enough galaxy in order to repel the extragalactic invading aliens known as the Vong.
- Abe Mazur from Vampire Academy has the reputation of a gangster and is good at intimidating people. But his role in the series is not that of a mean mob boss. Just a concerned father to Rose. He is looking out for her best interests.
- The Young Bond novel Strike Lightning has the character of Hepworth Maximilian Blade, a wealthy industrialist whose company produces weapons, and true to the literary Bond fashion, is a misshapen invidual due to suffering from Stone Man syndrome. He is producing combat exo-suits for Nazis, and is involved in a coverup of the death of a schoolmate of Bond's. But when the action in the book moves to Germany, he reveals himself to be a double agent for England, who is trying to pinpoint Nazi Germany's secret weapon labs through the secret weapons he is dealing to them.
Live-Action TV
- In the episode "Folsom Prison Blues" (S02, Ep19) of Supernatural, the warden of the prison turns out to be John Winchester's friend and helps Sam and Dean escape.
- Played for laughs in the first episode of Sherlock. John is summoned (read: almost kidnapped) by an ominous, well-connected man who offers him money for updates on Sherlock's movements. "I worry about him constantly...we have what you might call a "difficult relationship." John assumes he's a criminal mastermind, and the viewer could be forgiven for thinking he's Moriarty. It turns out he's just Sherlock's equally-strange older brother.
- Takatora Kureshima/Kamen Rider Zangetsu in Kamen Rider Gaim initially seems to be the Big Bad, particularly how he tries to play Hope Crusher for Kouta. However, it's gradually revealed that Takatora has been lied to by his inner circle and thinks that only 1/7th of the world's population, at best, can be saved from the Forest of Helheim's invasion, which he views as unfortunate but better than the alternative. When Kouta reveals that there's an intelligent species with control over Helheim's flora (yet another thing his inner circle hid from him), Takatora gladly joins forces with him in the hopes that they can convince these Overlords to call off the invasion; sadly, at this point the inner circle (plus Takatora's own brother) decides he's outlived his usefulness...
- In The Outer Limits (1995) episode "Something About Harry", a teenager suspects that his mom's new tenant is an alien infiltrator when people start disappearing around town, whom the tenant is melting into green goo with a futuristic gun. The tenant was actually a U.S. government agent, and everyone he killed was one of the real aliens. The teenager's mother is the one who had really been replaced by the alien parasites.
- In the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode "A Hen in the Wolfhouse", Simmons's cover at HYDRA is under threat from their security team, led by Bobbi Morse. When her cover is completely blown, Morse takes out the rest of the security team and tells Simmons that Coulson has arranged their extraction.
- After getting close — very close — to Rosalind Price, the head of the newly formed Advanced Threat Containment Unit, which has been capturing Inhumans and keeping them in storage until a "cure" can be found, Coulson reveals to her that he already knows that her organization is overseen by HYDRA. He is correct — but Rosalind herself was completely unaware and, once she convinces Coulson of her innocence, is willing to work with him to bring it down.
- Marchlands spends four episodes playing on classic expectations of a poltergeist, but the final episode reveals that the ghost never actually tries to harm anyone—she is only trying to expose the mysterious circumstances of her death, and on one occasion she even saves an epileptic boy from drowning in a bathtub. This is made even clearer at the end, when even the resident Agent Scully, Amy's mother, admits, "I think Alice was really a good girl all along."
- Wet Hot American Summer: First Day Of Camp: The Falcon, President Reagan's personal assassin, was apparently this. As soon as it's revealed, however, Beth points out that it makes no sense at all, since The Falcon had repeatedly tried to kill her and had successfully killed two of her friends along with several others. The Falcon says that he'd like to explain but there's somewhere he really has to be.
- A character on Supergirl is traditionally a villain in the comics, but is revealed to be this on the television show. This is because the character, Hank Henshaw, is actually a disguised J'onn J'onzz, the Martian Manhunter, who is a hero in the comics.
- In Oliver's Travels, when Oliver finally learns the fate of the friend whose disappearance started him on the trail of the conspiracy, he also learns that the villain's Enigmatic Minion, Baxter, is his friend's son and has been working to bring the conspiracy down from the inside.
Role-Playing Games
- Played with in Dino Attack RPG. It comes as no surprise that Frank Einstein is a good guy. However, the surprise was when the villainous Wallace Bishop turned out to be Frank Einstein in disguise.
Video Games
- In Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Subspace Emissary mode, King Dedede spends most of the story trying to take fighters that have been turned into trophies. Then after everybody except the three that he did manage to get face down Tabuu and get trophified, the badges he placed on those three turn them back to normal.
- Of course, the fact that a major cutscene revealing why he did this (in which he's present while Meta Knight's ship gets stolen) got removed in the final cut does complicate this. With that said, Dedede acting like a dick for no reason would still be quite in character for him.
- In the Kirby series of video games, King Dedede's almost always portrayed as the Big Bad in the beginning of a given game, but usually turns out to be either this or just an innocent jerk. The most blatant case is probably Kirby's Adventure/Nightmare in Dream Land, where he destroys the Star Rod and prevents everyone in Dream Land from dreaming. It turns out he was just trying to stop Nightmare from taking over the Fountain of Dreams.
- Landia in Kirbys Return To Dreamland. Though Magolor claims that it's threatening Halcandra, in reality, it's the planet's guardian and lives to prevent its treasures from falling into the wrong hands; the Lor Starcutter and Master Crown being two of them. After Kirby and friends beat it up as a result of the misinformation, it immediately aids them in stopping Magolor once his true intentions come to light.
- Angela Cross, the true identity of the Masked Thief in Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando. Angela has been working against Megacorp to prevent the release of the Protopet, as it is a violent carnivorous creature that also repeatedly reproduces offspring at the drop of a hat, and if it got out could very well threaten everything in the galaxy.
- Depending on what ending the player gets, Anne of Silent Hill: Downpour was in the right all along. In all but the best ending, Murphy killed her father as part of a prison deal, and in the worst ending, he also killed his own son, making his reasons for revenge entirely moot.
- Cynder, the Big Bad of the first game in The Legend of Spyro trilogy turned out to be Brainwashed and Crazy. After Spyro defeated her, she returned to her normal self and eventually fell in love with Spyro.
- The Boss from Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. Even before The Reveal that she's a Fake Defector, it's made quite clear that she's a good woman.
- And in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Revolver Ocelot is revealed to have been noble in his goals from the very start, working to destroy the Patriots for good and also working save Big Boss, who he admired deeply. All while being seen as a terrorist the whole time.
- Grovyle in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers is initially presented as a villain who's trying to throw off the world's balance by swiping the Time Gears. However, it turns out that he's actually trying to save the world, as any ill effects caused by the removal of the gears are temporary, and they're needed to stop what's really going to doom the world. If only he had bothered trying to explain this before you get captured by the real villain along with him...
- Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity has Hydreigon, who looks pure evil, is seen attacking Munna in the opening, and is later stated to be the cause of the world's impending destruction. However, everything but his appearance turns out to be a lie, and he's actually the one who called the player into the Pokemon world to act as its savior. He proves to be one of the kindest and most heroic characters in the series and a shining example of Dark Is Not Evil.
- In Super Robot Wars UX Arnie and Saya get to have a conversation with Jin and Ayul where Arnie fully realizes that Jin truly has no ill intent. Jin just really, really wants to stop the apocalypse from coming about and will do anything to defeat you to make that happen.
- Applies to an entire species: the Geth, as of Mass Effect 2. Turns out the ones you've been fighting are a sort of rebel faction who worship the Reapers. Normal Geth refer to these as "Heretic" Geth, you learn this after meeting one. More a case of True Neutral All Along: Most of their species have no beef with anyone else in the galaxy and just want to be left alone.
- Tears to Tiara 2 has the Recurring Boss Izebel. Played up as traitor and Deceptive Disciple she has in fact the entire time been subtly helping La Résistance behind the scenes. Her fight with Hamil were to both train him and test his abilities to make sure he's good enough to take on The Empire. And the entire thing, including her "betrayal" was ordered by the superior whom she supposedly betrayed before he took his own life.
- Five Nights at Freddy's 2: As it turns out, the animatronics fall into this trope. During the mini games, you can see that Freddy attempts to rescue some kids from the real murderer, but fails. As for the other animatronics, they just seem like they want to entertain the children.
- Five Nights at Freddy's 3 reveals that the classic animatronics—Freddy, Chica, Bonnie, and Foxy—as well as the Puppet were Good. They were trying to find and stop the homicidal Purple Man. Because their spirits were that of children, they couldn't identify him properly or tell him apart from other adults. They were using the only context clue they had: a security guard's uniform. Turns out that the Puppet is the Big Good! He's the one who revived the five murdered children as the suits so they could find their killer, even though he is heavily implied to be a dead child himself.
- Lunar: Eternal Blue: Despite apparently working for the Big Bad Ghaleon eventually reveals himself to be this. This is especially surprising because Ghaleon was the Big Bad of the first game; everything that he does in the second game is a secret effort to atone for his previous actions.
- The primary antagonist of Mega Man IV is Dr. Cossack, a Russian scientist who sent eight of his robots to attack Mega Man to prove his genius. Except that he was being blackmailed by Dr. Wily into doing his work for him, and never had evil ambitions of his own. In the following game, where Dr. Light is kidnapped, Cossack serves as an ally in his place.
- The villains of Golden Sun, Saturos and Menardi, turn out to not only be fighting to save the world, but have only resorted to brute force because not only did the elders of Vale refuse to listen to their warnings about the imminent apocalypse, but their hometown is the first place on the apocalypse's chopping block. They're still grade-A Jerk Asses who get their fair share of Kick the Dog moments, but at least their hearts are in the right place. Alex, not so much by a long shot.
- In Until Dawn, the Flamethrower Guy is initially assumed to be the Serial Killer hunting the teens, but is eventually revealed to be separate entity that only wanted to protect the kids from the wendigos. In addition, the Serial Killer is just one of the kids trying to teach the others a lesson and was completely unaware anyone was in any danger, and Dr. Hill is said kid's conscience.
- In Shin Megami Tensei, the two major powers are YHVH, an insane Tautological Templar, and Lucifer, a Well-Intentioned Extremist with Jerkass tendencies. Lucifer is usually seen as the lesser of the two evils, while YHVH, or the Great Will as he's been called since Nocturne, is just too evil to side with. Then Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse happened. No, YHVH is still evil. However, the Great Will turns out to be a separate entity from YHVH who has actively been trying to stop YHVH by creating Messiahs, effectively redeeming the Great Will.
- Bioshock Infinite: Burial at Sea reveals that Daisy Fitzroy was all along an agent of the Lucete Twins, and her Moral Event Horizon crossing and subsequent death at Elizabeth's hands were all part of the plan to harden Elizabeth and turn her into the woman who would in the future bring down Comstock and the Founders.
- Kratos Aurion of Tales of Symphonia appears to betray the group. It turns out he has been helping them all along.
- The supposed Big Bad of One Way Heroics is played up to be a generic world-destroying Demon Lord who needs to be killed to stop the encroaching wall of darkness. If you use a Buddy Tablet on her, she'll reveal that she didn't cause the darkness and that her death is part of a ritual to temporarily stop the apocalypse.
- Guilty Gear: Xrd: -Revelator- reveals that That Man doesn't actually want world domination; he just wants people to be free from the Universal Will. And that he did have well-intentioned reasons for turning Sol into a Gear: Aria would have rather died of her terminal illness while being with Frederick than going into cryogenic slumber while a cure was found over an untold number of years, so he made them both Gears so they could enjoy immortality together. He fully admits that he caused Aria/Justice's death and he deserves Sol's hatred, and even though the two have finally made peace, he still accepts Sol's request for a final showdown.
- In El Goonish Shive, Grace's brothers are of the "coerced/threatened" variety, since they are ruled by the iron fist of their powerful and abusive guardian, Damien. When Hedge kidnaps Elliot, he reveals that he's only doing it because he can't find Grace, and because Damien said he would kill him if he didn't bring someone back. He also gets hit by Damien for lying to him and disobeying orders. When Elliot's friends arrive to save him, Hedge tries to make them to leave before Damien finds out they're there. The worst thing Guineas does is guard Elliot, and his way of participating in the fight with Elliot's friends is by having a thumb war with one of them. Vlad initially appears to be at least somewhat sympathetic to Damien's mindset: He is confrontational towards Hedge, he willingly goes after Grace when he sees her arrive, and when Damien subdues her, he says, "I never like to see her hurt, but she brought it upon herself." He also is the one who alert's Damien to the presence of Elliot's friends, and ends up being the most vicious fighter against them. However, this all turns out to be a combination of lip-service to Damien and resentment for being unable to transform into a human.
- Zigzagged Trope in The Sanity Circus: on the one hand, Posey is a demon-esque nightmare creature and is trying to make Attley return to her demonic nature too - but she is also genuinely trying to protect Attley as well from the other Scarecrows, who would kill Attley permanently for being of no use to them anymore.

- Colossus in X-Men: Evolution was a member of Magneto's Acolytes. In his second appearance, it was revealed during a confrontation between him and Wolverine that he was a reluctant member of the group and Magneto had blackmailed him into joining. In subsequent appearances, Colossus was consistently portrayed as the most sympathetic member of the Acolytes and was the first to abandon the group after Magneto was seemingly killed by Apocalypse. He later helped the X-Men in their final battle against Apocalypse and was shown in the Distant Finale to become a full-fledged member of the X-Men following Apocalypse's defeat.
- In one episode of Tiny Toon Adventures, Plucky Duck who's often acts like a Jerkass is revealed to be a Jerk with a Heart of Gold.

When his number one fan Little Sneezer the mouse catches him talking to Roderick he tells Plucky "Say it ain't so, Plucky!". At the end during the last quarter of the game when Sneezer again tells Plucky "Say it ain't so, Plucky!", Plucky smiles and says "It ain't so, Sneezer.". Plucky and his team captain Buster Bunny immediately use a play together that was never in the Looniveristy team's playbook and when Roderick states so in angry confusion Buster tells him to check the back...Where Roderick finds the last page reading "Sucker". Turns out Buster planned to have Plucky pretend to help Roderick so they could beat his team in the end.

This is a marvelous recipe with simply delicious results. Made with Splenda Brown Blend (about 1/2 a cup of it). It was baked at 1 hr and I just couldn't wait until the melted chocolate inside had set to try it. It you haven't had chocolate chip banana bread while the chocolate is still gooey and a little warm you just haven't lived yet! It cooled for about 40 mins before I cut it. Made for PAC, spring 2011.

As summer approached, so did a rather large box on my doorstep. In it was what would soon be called my Summer Survival Kit.
This box didn't house ready-to-eat meals, or bottled water or canned goods. It didn't include a wind-up radio or even a bottle of Xanax. Instead, in this box was something very, very special, something that I think every Mom and Dad needs as summer break approaches…. a Keurig single brew coffee machine.
Thanks to the awesome folks at Staples, I was able to review a Keurig just in time for summer. Let me tell you, this baby has been working over time. In the morning I use it to crack open my eyes after late summer nights. And in the afternoon I use it to get through dinner and well, those late summer nights.
What's great is that you can easily make iced coffee and even other treats in it such as lemonade. Yup, this baby has been running overtime, that is for sure.
Before Staples came to me with this review opportunity, I was a bit hesitant to get a Keurig. I'm a fan of the good ol French Press and I'm not really a fan of using all of those throw away coffee pods that Kuerigs use. In fact, that was the number one reason my husband and I hadn't yet given into the Kuerig craze. We both drink 1-2 cups of coffee in the morning and we thought it was just too wasteful to go through so many plastic coffee pods.
Enter the reusable coffee pod. Once we went through the samples that Staples had sent us – Donut Shoppe coffee for us, hot cocoa for the kids – I was able to find reusable coffee pods at our local drug store. Now we're able to use the incredibly awesome, ready-any-time, Keurig without the guilt. We simply buy our own coffee grounds, fill the reusable pods and get our coffee freak on whenever we please without having to brew an entire pot.
Here is a huge MAHALO to Keurig and Staples for helping me get through summer and for having alternatives to those pods. You are a life saver!

CBNNews.com - U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said she plans to attend next week's conference in Cairo on aid to Gaza.
"One thing is that immediately upon being inaugurated and my taking office as secretary of state, President Obama and I said the United States will get re-engaged in trying to help in the Middle East," Clinton told reporters Wednesday during her visit to Indonesia.
"I will go to Cairo next week to a conference sponsored by the Egyptians to try to get humanitarian aid to Gazans," she said.
Representatives from an estimated 70 countries plan to attend the conference, according to Egyptian Foreign Ministry officials.
UN Secretary-General Ban ki-Moon said plans are underway to raise an estimated $613 billion for Gaza residents, the French news agency, AFP, reported.

fda clears their device for all these applications; also, in the pr, ceo mentions partnering
looks like a steal at these levels
congrats to the longs who stuck it in
Sentiment: Strong Buy
shorts are in the process of recovering. @4 ETF and Mutual Funds can jump in. @5 Institutions joint us. Sitting here feeling sorry for people who sell BIOL to day and the next 50 days. Happy day everyone. Beside the shorts hihi, I know it you guys are messing with the wrong company. Look at BIOL price history.........here we come!
I would only add that the $5 mark is important, but the same context applies through $10, "house rules" for managers can be anywhere in that range. Double digits puts a stock in a new class. Pretty cool news today, don't think the stock has been in this position with expanded markets before, perhaps some of the older longs can confirm or deny that?
As I look at Biolase price history as you suggest I see runs way above any resonable evaluation and then a return to earth once the market stops being a voting machine and becomes a weighing machine.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
once the cnbc blabbers get a hold of it, we should go even higher. seems like biol is off peoples radar.

Floyd's new demeanour...
Anyone noticed how Floyd is conducting himself in the Cotto pressers? Not bad mouthing his opponent, if anything talking him up, being more respectful and humble, even talking in a more measured and mature way.
Is Floyd finally ready to shed the Money persona?

His persona has nothing to do with it. He knows people are annoyed by the fact Manny and Floyd still aren't facing eachother. He wants to avoid that people think he's ducking and choosing opponents everybody knows he would beat. He's doing everything he can to make people think that he's picked a good opponent. So it's just strategy.

I also think it has to do with Cotto's personality. For some reason I think Floyd is a bit flustered by the void that is Cotto. His response is emulation, though not necessarily voluntary.

He's fighting a man that most people in the sport respect, so I expected a respectful Floyd.
If anything, the crazy stuff will be on 24/7, but I don't expect much of it.

Yea I think he's only doing it for the Courts. Even though I do actually believe that he respects Cotto. Floyd beat a woman, so im pretty sure he's not trying to play the overly aggressive person on TV cause that would just give the courts more reason to lock him.
