I am so pleased with the excellent quality and looks of my new utencils and holder. Glad I purchased two so that I can give the other one to someone special.

Excellent canister and utensil set
I concur with the previous reviewers, this canister and utensil set is a terrific buy. Not only is the price a bargain, the set is beautifully made and classy looking. As stated in other reviews, there is room in the canister to add a few other utensils one may own and the canister/utensils are sturdy. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Make great gift
I got one on sale for $10. Received it today and immediate want to order 10 more but price has gone up. Every piece is classy looking. This is one of the very few items that Amazon did not inflate the 'suggested retail price'. Worth $40 in my opionion.

Awesome set!
I got this for Christmas and I LOVE it!!! Everything is very heavy duty and there is more room in the container for extra items that I have. This is a beautiful set and is well worth the price!! i would recomend this item and will probably buy this for wedding gifts in the future.

Helped me start a retailing business
This comprehensive book helped me get the necessary information to start a home-based business in medical magnets, to give me the information to sell the products and to be informed myself. A must read in alternative medical treatments.

(almost) no fast ed or philthy, but good.
Well-done, High energy show at Hmmrsmth Odn '85. Lineup: Lemmy, Mike "Wurzel" Burston (sp?)Phil Cambell, Pete Gill. Very good sound quality. Not the best in terms of visuals, shots of Lem during the guitar solos, bad lighting, etc. Actually 'live', as opposed to "Best of MH", which is a collection of videos and not a concert. Special guest appearance by Wendy O. Williams on "No Class", but she is too low in the mix. For the final rendition of 'Motorhead' (the song), every member of MH, past or present (up till '85) is on stage, plus Phil Lynott of Thin Lizzy. This isn't so great, as we see each of them for 0.23 secondsthe best MH concert vid is of the '82 show in Toronto, because it has the "Fast and Philthy" lineup and the sound is incredibly good. unfortuneately, that one is only available as a bootleg.

Outstanding Product for the Money
I bought this card for my wife as an anniversary present. She is an aspiring photographer and takes a lot of pictures. Let me tell you, this card was a godsend for her. Gone are the days where she runs out of space on her card when ever we go somewhere new. This beast holds over an amazing 1200 pictures, and for just over 100 bucks it was a steal. Buy this card, it will be the last one you will buy for a long time.

Terrible disappointment
I should have checked the audio clips of these songs before ordering this album, which appears to offer a broad survey of some of Roger Whittaker's best known songs. Actually, this CD is a combination of redos and live recordings. The songs included here differ from the originals, with synthesizers added and new arrangements (including background singers) that alter the original recordings. If you don't care about that, fine. I happen to, and will have to buy other albums to get what I want.

Nonsense
The only good comment I have regarding this book is the skill of the illustrator. The story line itself is just nonsense words that hardly follows an actual plot. Maybe good for a child to read who's practicing sounding out their words but not for parents to read to kids.

Where's The Story Line???
The only reason I got this game was because of the extremely cheap price. This game was't worth a dime of it. And where's the story line? You just go around shooting and that's it. Don't let the price fool you into buying this good-for-nothing game. Instead get Syphon Filter of Metal Gear Solid. Not only do they have a story line, but they're better.

You hit the spot!!
Well, can't say I agree with the other review posted saying the arrangements are boring, no way. I can't stand those Christmas records with abstract arrangements that DO NOT make it feel like Christmas. I own many other Nicholas Gunn records and I must say that this record has a simplicity and beauty that reminds of Christmas when I was growing up. A must have to any Christmas collection.A long time fan.

When Imagination Falters!
This book tells of events so implausible that even your imagination will have difficulty comprehending them. If I have any complaint about the book it is that it fails to sufficiently emphasize how amazing it is, for example, that molten lava once upon a time ran nearly 400 miles before coming to its stopping place. The authors seem to almost be afraid that if they point up the apparent absurdity of it all, the reader would decide the whole book was a well written hoax! It was not a hoax, though, and the story of what happened in the Pacific Northwest once upon a time is well told. It is of greatest interest, obviously, to those of us who live here in the midst of the results of fire, fault and flood, but, for those elsewhere with vivid imaginations, it is a cracking good book. This is one time when what actually happened is more exciting than anything one's imgination can possibly conjure up!

This cd is great, hands down. If you stumble across this release, you know what you're looking for anf i can assure you that this is the one. Alot of big names are on this cd and it ends up being something that you'll listen to for years to come, as i have. Resurection of the Ravens is my personal fav, one of Klayton's best tracks to date.

A very fine novel
I found myself rapidly engrossed in this deeply satisfying tale of old and new China, which weaves together unforgettable characters, mystery, and romance against the backdrop of war and revolution in China. The authors have created imagined worlds and people that ring true, and a story line that had me finishing the book on my commuter train - at the expense of my habitual New York Times!John L.

Short Life
These bulbs are very expensive and very short lived. Unfortunately it is almost impossible to find a cheaper replacement with the same amp and watt rating. You are hooked into buying these bulbs for your itty bitty if you want the same brightness. These bulbs progressively darken as the tungsten is burned off the filament and deposited on the bulb surface, so the light begins a dimming process almost immediately. This whole system from Zelco needs reengineering. Beware!

bulbs don't last long
These are great when they start out, but they get dim as you use them. They are not worth the price since they don't last very long. Thankfully, I now have a Kindle and use a 'Kandle' Love the Kindle, but the batteries for the light do the same thing as the bulbs for the 'itty bitty' light. The difference is, they aren't as costly!

Wonderful littl light
This Itty Bitty Book Light by Zelco is by the far the best light for nightime reading that I have ever found. Recently I needed a new one and it was no longer available in Canada so thank you Amazon for sending me 2 - my life would not be the same without this product.

Very short life
Buy them by the dozen because, on AC power, these bulbs have a very short effective lifespan.The heat generated causes the glass to start darkening from the first use. In a matter of weeks you'll notice that you can't see the type very well anymore. This is because the bulb glass turns dark grey, so very little light can pass through it.

Purchased by mistake - confusing suggestions on website
I made a mistake in buying these as I had purchased the itty bitty slimline book light, that does not use these type of bulbs. It was confusing as the replacement bulbs were listed as items often purchased with the slimline book light and I did not realise that the larger book light was listed there as well. So now I have some light bulbs that I don't need.

Helpful for those late night reads...
I like the Itty Bitty Book Light and the bulbs because I can then read long into the night without disturbing my husband after we have turned in for the night. The replacement bulbs are a tad on the expensive side, but so well worth it to be able to continue using the book light. I do wish the bulbs lasted a bit longer and it would be nice if they did not get dim because of turning a darkish blue color after they are on for a while. Having a bright light is better for your eyes, and one can direct the book light so it shines directly on the book so that the light does not bother anyone else's sleep.

The topic is very interesting and I had high hopes when I began reading it. However, quickly the material becomes too involved and told in very dull language. I would look else where for a book about the Supreme Court. There are many good ones.

Am I the only one bothered by the bad guy having sex with a dog?
I bought this book because of all the positive reviews. I have been running our local mystery book club for over three years and there is no way I would recommend this book. There are cute and amusing parts to it, but then she adds in a character that abuses dogs by having sex with them and it taints the whole story. The author thinks that a complex plot means throwing all kinds of characters in at the end that all of a sudden relate to each other. The premise to the story is weak at best and she tries to dress it up with descent character development but it just isn't enough for me. It is too bad; I really wanted to like this book. There were some parts that were fun - but not enough - I ended up throwing this in the trash - which I have never done before but I couldn't in good conscience give the book away.

Forget the blurbs
It's a shame that the book jacket markets it as just another blood-and-guts crime book. Blurbs like 'Violence'Blood-smeared and naked.' and 'the punch of a sledge hammer' do more harm than good.Yeah, the book is about a bank robbery. Yeah, there's a bit of blood. But those things are not the key to the genius of the book. That key is the dialog. More than half the book is dialog. The plot jumps through its incredible use. No wonder it was made into a movie. It's everything a movie should be. Action, character development, plot, atmosphere, everything is carried, and carried amazingly well, by the dialog. Too bad this book will end up only on the shelves of hard-boiled fans. It should be required reading in Script-writing 101.

Ribbon trouble
I have been having the same thing happening for about a year now, like the other reviewer. The ribbon wrinkles, and eventually rips and has to be thrown out, well before it wore out. I assumed it was the printer (LQ-590) and went through it with a fine comb, but could find nothing wrong with it. I have had the printer for many years, and used to change the ribbon only after it printed lighter and lighter because of wear, but still kept working. Given what the other reviewer said, now I wonder if it a new "undocumented feature," introduced about a year ago, that self-destructs the ribbon.Anyone else is having this problem?

Quality is not very focused on this anymore... maybe b/c dot matrix is becoming obsolete
When you first install the product, it starts off printing very sharp and clear, no complaints. But in no time, like in 3-4 months or so, if not less, the guide that's inserted into the print head cracks before the ribbon even runs out, or is that supposed to be your indicator that the ribbon has in fact ran out... I don't know. And of course, once it cracks, it's pretty much useless as the ribbon will get all folded up, wrinkled, and creased, there's no fixing it. So I've pretty much had to toss it and replace it again and again.

More great Chenilles
The Chenilles' latest will not disappoint their fans. The songs have enough in common with their earlier efforts to remind you what you love about them, but they're different enough to justify there being a new disc.On first hearing, I liked this album a little less than some of their others, but after a while I find I like it more. As always, the harmonies are delightful. They combine a jazzy 50s sound and texture with modern subject matter.The lyrics are not great poetry, but they're thoughful. If "About Happiness" doesn't make you cry a little you've lived a life very different from mine. At bottom, I think, that's what I like about the Chenilles--their songs are not about the trite excesses of the youth culture, instead they remind you of feelings worth feeling. They manage to be both tuneful and thoughtful.

Super Sweet Harmonies
The harmonies are honey sweet. Their 3 voices meld perfectly together.I wish I could say the same for their songwriting. The lyrics themselves are straight up and forthright with little embellishment or simile.While these gals have most excellent voices their own songs are not quite ready for prime time. The songs on this disc vary seem to be written from either the "Mother with Kids" or "Single & Looking" viewpoints. The only gems on the disc are written by other folks & you can hear the difference.I bet the Chenille Sisters are great live but their probable stage presence doesn't translate on the CD.I'd skip this one unless you're a fan.

Tough Times
This was a very sensitive documentary and captured my heart. The content focused only on the poor, innercity child of color though. I wish it had broadened its scope and included children and grandparents from all walks of life.I am grandmom/mom - we adopted our 7 year old grandson in December of 2007. Yes, we are white, yes we make a combined income of over 80K a year, and yes we live in suburbia in a newer home and drive newer automobiles. But, drugs affected the lives of the parents and long story short, we his grandparents, ended up here at this place today when we should be planning our retirement.I would have liked to see more interaction, ideas, solutions, and support integrated into this documentary rather than the hopelessness that it portrayed.

Food should not be about religion/spirituality
This approach to food seems interesting, but the aspects related to religion and spirituality should be left out. This book instructs you to show your appreciation to god for your food. I appreciate the farmer and all the supporting infrastructure man man which got it in my belly. No god was a part of that, people were. Thank you Mr. Farmer!

Truly doesn't serve its purpose.
So...I bought this for our 7 month old. What a nightmare. What the previous posters said about this thing is TRUE. It is hard to get it to STAY PUT in the cart while you put your kid in it. It just doesn't happen. And then...when you DO get your baby in, the seat portion is so narrow that it barely is the width of your child's hind end. Forget the bar cover. It is just as narrow. This thing covers just that small area and if you have a child like mine, they are reaching over and touching EVERYTHING. To add to it, the back cusion part doesn't even go up to the top of the back support. My daughter totally whacked her head on the back of the cart seat and screamed. The cusion part totally doesn't cover it.Just bad. Just spend the extra cash and buy something that covers the whole darn cart!

good concept, but lousy product
I had trouble keeping my 7 month old in the cart seat. I saw many good reviews on this product so I decided to try it. BAD idea! My daughter still slips around in the cart. It is very expensive for a small piece of fabric and very bulky too to carry everywhere with you. I took it back and got my money back.

Not as happy as I thought I'd be
I bought this seat because my 5 month old loves to look around, and is growing tired of her infant seat. I thought it would be perfect since there are so many shopping carts with broken straps. I loved the fact that it kept the handle covered for her, but the seat kept moving when she was sitting on it, causing her to slide all over the place. I am going to return it to the store. Very disappointed

Nice try, but doesn't cut it.
I was so happy to get this since i was tired of my son slipping and being so uncomfortable in shopping carts. Also, I was getting grossed out by him chewing on the bars. Well, it only took one time using it to realize it was a waste of money. While it held him in place fairly well, at least better than without it, the covering was useless. Most of the cart was still left exposed for him to put his mouth on and the padding isn't very large. If all i was interested in was him staying secure in the cart, then this would probably be OK. But with babies there are other issues like comfort, cleanliness, and ease of use. I returned it right away and a week later discovered "The Floppy Seat". What a lifesaver that has turned out to be. So much better. It covers the entire seat and is padded nicely. It also is very secure. Babies r us just started carrying them. It costs twice as much as the secure me, but it's worth it.

Super versatile and useful
I've been using this product since my baby outgrew her carrier, so it's been almost a year now. I love it! I use it in shopping carts and restaurant high chairs all the time. Now that she's bigger I don't use the part that covers the bar because I don't have to worry about her chewing on it (and the grocery store I go to has odd carts on which that part won't fit anyway). With the seat installed, though, I don't have to worry about whether the straps on the cart or high chair are in working order or not, or about the straps on the cart fitting her properly and securely. This seat fits her perfectly every time. When she was little and couldn't sit up, the wide soft straps on this seat held her upright. We've used this in a pinch to keep her in a regular chair. There's still plenty of room to adjust it so it should last us for another year.

great
This is the best baby item. I am a mother of 4 & bought this with my 3rd child and it was wonderful. Now with my 4th she is also loving it, although my almost 2 year old wants it still. From the time my kids can sit upright they want to.. so the carriers on the shopping carts just won't keep them happy and the seat straps(if you can find a cart that they still work in)don't give the security a 5-6 month old needs. Does any one remember sitting on cold or hot shopping cart seats? With this it gives a little padding and a lot of support. Once in the seat i know my kids are secure. Also i have used it to give better support to restarant high chairs. One more thing it comes with a clear pouch KEEP IT,use it to store it in your car, that way you always have a clean cart seat cover and don't have to worry as much about the kid with a cold who was just drooling on the same handle as your little one is now trying to bite into.

BETTER PRODUCTS OUT THERE
This seat doesn't cover the whole grocery cart and doesn't seem to be very comfortable. It is also not easy to place in the cart while holding your baby. I recently bought a similar seat by infantino called Shop & Play. There is a removeable pillow for the back of the cart which my daughter loves-I'm sure those carts can get uncomfortable after awhile. It covers the whole back and handle of the cart with leg holes that have flaps for babies legs to rest on. There are three toys which are over the handle to entertain baby and easy to roll up while holding baby. I bought it at Wal-Mart for just a little more than this seat, but well worth it for the extras.

Disappointed
This is o.k. if you're using it as a restraint only. If you want it to protect your child from the germs on the cart, forget it. I thought the bar cover would keep my baby from touching and chewing on the bars, wrong. It hardly covers anything. I went back and bought the cart cover that covers everything, I wish I would have spent the extra money before wasting it on this seat.

Air travel a no-go
If you plan to use this with a wiley infant as a lap-child instead of purchasing an airline seat, have a back-up plan. In the event you get flight attendants (like I got) who enforce the rules, they will not let you use this to secure your child either on your lap or in an available seat. Bottom line, you may end up on a long flight with no restraint at all for your child.

No support, no restrain whatsoever
It does not attach to the shopping cart anywhere except at the handle, thus when your baby moves around, the seat cover shifts all over the place. Not to mention, if you baby wants to stand up, the piece picks up with him/her. Also it does not cover the entire handle (only the plastic part), so your baby can still lean over and lick on the ends of shopping cart handle (the metal part). I used it once and found it practically worthless.

Product is good but the seller's headline is misguiding
I have just bought these gloves and was under the impression that you were getting a "Set of two" pairs since no one buys gloves for a single hand. Also, since the product photographs shown here reflect that this is an older product as compared to what is available on CLC's website, I think it is a rip off for this price.Someone please educate the seller that a set of two (in gloves) means two pairs and not one right and one left...

A let down
The shoes arrived with multiple scuff marks on both sides of the shoes as if they had been sandwiched in a tight spot that caused a significant rub mark on the outer portion of the soles (where the little toe resides). Very disappointed to pay this much for a shoe and then receive them damaged. Of course would like to get a better pair because I used to really love Johnson and Murphy shoes but now I will never buy another one again.

Stay away from this shoe. I purchased a pair of these J&M Meltons and within a month both of the heels starting flaking/shedding off. (I only wore the shoes a few times each week).

Save yourself the trouble and go up a step in shoe quality to Allen Edmonds, Alden, Brooks Brothers, etc.

It is mentioned the shoe size is 8 3E and Made in India inside the shoe. So at the moment I don't know what to do and,I will give them to my father who is bigger than me. So, when you order these shoes please be more concerned of the origin of them because I believe that I got a Pair which is not US size but INDIAN size.

Buy a used pair of AE Park aves
After owning a pair of park avenues, you will not be able to wear these.The leather on these shoes are made from corrected grain. Therefore, because of the treating process, the leather is left stiff.Go on ebay and buy a pair of Allen Edmonds Park Avenue's. They are the same style shoe but are of much better quality. They should last you 10-15 years.

DO NOT buy these shoes
I recently purchased a pair of J&M shoes...spent over $120 and have been totally dissatisfied with the product, the customer service, everything. After about 2 months of wearing these shoes off and on to my job (I sit behind a desk the majority of the day) these shoes started to fall apart. I contacted J&M and they required that I ship the shoes back to them before they would tell me what could be done, even after I sent in pictures of the shoes. After several weeks of negotiating with them, they agreed to send me a new pair of shoes if I would provide them my CC number. I agreed. They proceeded to lose my CC number and required that I give them the CC number again. Then, the shoes were to be delivered to me by thursday evening. The company screwed that up too. Ultimately, I would save your money or make a more educated purchase than I have done.

Great Shoe, Great Price
Nice looking shoe, feels and looks well constructed. I normally wear 7.5 (Cole Haan, Johnston & Murphy, Allen Edmonds), but had to get these in a 7. I just didn't like how much room was left in the toe box (end of the shoe) with a 7.5. I like the slightly narrow look of these shoes too.These shoes will need breaking in. Expect them to be tight and mildly uncomfortable for at least one week. After the leather warms up and stretches out they will fit fine and be comfortable. I wear mine for 8-10 hours everyday without trouble. The first week was pretty bad though.Easy to clean, not too shiny or too dull. At $120 I don't expect them to last more than a year to 18 months, but who cares at that price.

I am always on the lookout for good J&Ms. I don't like that they have sent most of their production out of the country but I can say that this shoe is solid. Stick with the refurbishable shoes from J&M and you'll never be sorry.

Worst shoe I've ever purchased.
I just got these shoes delivered and was very disappointed with their quality. The leather is so stiff and inflexible that I couldn't even get my foot into the shoe or flex it with my hands. I expect to have to break a shoe in but there has to be at least enough give in it to allow some movement. These shoes might be alright for someone who only wears them to an interview or a wedding then puts them in the back of the closet till the next event (so long as you don't mind the blisters that are bound to come from wearing them), but for someone who needs to actually walk all day, every day in them, they are completely unacceptable. This is my second Johnston and Murphy purchase that I'm having to send back for poor quality. I won't be making this mistake a third time.Pros: Sleek design.Cons: Plastic look and feel. Extremely inflexible. Unwearable. Slightly scuffed. Poor workmanship.

Nice shoes for the price
Only had them a few days and worn them twice but so far I'm pleased for what I spent. They do run a little big in my experience though. I usually wear a size 9.5 but had to return for a size 9. Return process was absolutely perfect. Submitted the exchange info online and had the new shoes within a few days and it didn't cost a dime more. The shoes are a little stiff but I assume, and hope, that they will loosen up with more wearings. No blisters or any major complaints with this, it's just that I can definitely tell I'm wearing new shoes. I expected there to be a break-in period though.For a goodyear welted, all leather, classic cap toe you can't beat the price.

Great looking dress shoe, but its the most uncomfortable pair of shoe I have ever owned!
I will not recommend this product! It looks really good and sharp until I wore it for a high profile event for the 1st time! My feet was hurting every step I took.

Too stiff!
Shoe is very stiff and painful to wear. It will take a long time to break Them in. Meantime I will have to suffer to wear them.

Complete Waste of Money
What a complete waste of $49.99. Virtually no substance. No real world advice on how to strategically use Qb in Property Management. My wife and I use QB for our consulting and real estate business, but wanted some additional advice on best practices when it comes to managing our investment properties. Most of the book is full of general QB stuff the basic user already knows. I would say only 5% of the book has anything to do with Property Management. Also, the back side of each page is blank. You could consolidate this relevant information in this book into a pamphlet. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE AND I WILL BE LOOKING TO TRY TO GET A REFUND.

Not detailed enough.
Only gave me basic information I could find in a user forum. Definately not worth the price.

Excellent Musical Deeelite
This is a beautiful composition which shifts and proceeds along a wonderfully vibrant electronic/techno landscape... listener is propelled through some very strong emotions that truly touch. Excellent, Fun, and uplifting the disc is worth the 10 bucks.

Boulez conducts Stravinsky
An amazing CD that consists of 4 great pieces of Stravinsky's music. L'Histoire du Soldat Suite (The Solder's Tale) is my favourite from the album. The sound is clear, lush and full and the Cleveland Orchestra is one of the best in the world. Additionally, Pierre Boulez is a highly accurate conductor especially when it comes to new music and the great innovative composers of the 20th century like Stravinsky, Webern, Bartok and Varese. These composers are his specialities. This lethal combination equals a album nothing short of excellent. A must have for any Igor Stravinsky fan.

Creative downtempo beats
Many reviewers of this CD have claimed that Yennah is "Acid Jazz," and that this was their reason for enjoying the music here. That's cool. As a fan of downtempo electronic music, however, I want to say that this has very little in common with acid jazz. There is almost no live instrumentation, live drums, or any other real-time-instrument-playing on this one. It's downtempo electronica, plain and simple. The definition of acid jazz is essentially funk using jazz chords and vamps - entirely organic. For the reviewers who enjoyed this CD after classifying it as acid jazz, welcome to the digital age.Yennah uses a multitude of creative beats, samples, and dub effects to bring about their musical visions on this fantastic CD. The remix by Hull's own Bullitnuts only adds to the creative, head-nodding feel of the CD.Check it out.

My favorite Jennie McGrady
This is probably my absolute favorite book in the Jennie McGrady series. Unlike some of the other books in the series, this one doesn't drag on at any point, and the ending isn't totally the same as the others(i.e. Jennie getting kidnapped by the perpetrator and narrowely escaping). Jennie's parents are recently reunited and off on their honeymoon. She's planning on having a great time with boyfriend Ryan while she's staying with her grandmother, but Ryan is preoccupied with his friend Todd, who is accused of murdering his girlfriend, Jessica Ames. The plot thickens when Jessica's father also dies mysteriously, and new evidence turns up that points to suicide. Was Jessica really murdered? And is the murderer now after Jennie and Ryan? And why is Ryan seen in a resturant with Jessica's best friend, Camilla? Only time will tell how Jessica died, and if Ryan and Jennie's relationship is as stable and Jennie once thought.

Dictionary for Dummies
I thought this was a great idea - a portable dictionary so that you don't have to get up to look up a word while you're reading. The problem? As far as I can tell, it only has words that are already pretty common. Some of the words we looked up that it didn't have include gelid & eidetic - okay, those aren't exactly easy words. Some others, though, like merlot, were surprisingly not there. It became a quest to find words that the thing DID have. We came up with one: onomotapoeia, and then gave up. I think this would probably be a great gift for a young reader, but for most avid adult readers (there were 4 of us), it just doesn't cut it.

Don't waste your money!
This product held so much promise but failed to deliver. 50,000 words might seem like a lot but the really tough words, the ones you really want to know the meaning of, are not in this dictionary. Also, one must spell the word they want the definition for nearly perfectly to get any definition at all. Even if the word is spelled perfectly, if that word is not in this dictionary, it will give you the meaning of any other word that has some of the letters in the word you want to know. I think that the idea is great, the gadget is easy to use and it makes a good bookmark however, it is a poor dictionary due to its very limited vocabulary.

If it worked
This item was $50.00 when I bought it and I think that $25.00 is still to much to pay. The display needed just the right light to see and even then would fade in and out. After about a week (really just a few uses) the screen went black so I put in a new battery. A couple uses later some of the letters just stopped working thus making it useless. These where just the mechanical problems.

So-So
This is a handy device but seems to have a fairly limited vocabulary in storage. I'm guessing that I don't find at least one-third of the words I look up in its dictionary. If I had it to do over again, I probably would not purchase this product.Update: Having had this for several years I can tell you that it is frustrating how many words are not in its dictionary. Also, the "I" has been problematic for quite some time -- sometimes it works OK; sometimes not at all. Don't waste your money.

OK...But not for a law students
This book was ok. It won't help the 1L law students looking for an aid to help them supplement their readings. This book is just a glorified canned case book. Highly recommended for those CONSIDERING law school and want to read about contracts BEFORE they start school. Once your in law school, look for another source.

Incredible Translation
As the English original was not available, I tried to read the Chinese translation.The translation was copyrighted to M. YANG Mingcheng in 1993.The language was in itself hardly intelligible Chinese, I am afraid. It could be well put like pouring dry peas on to a metal plate.

Wireless a good idea?...... maybe not.
This system is a piece of cake to install. Two people make it easier and faster. Make sure you have electrical outlets at both locations where the monitor and camera will go. Then, FIRST take the camera and set it in the area where you will later mount it. Then set up the monitor where you want it. Good picture? Congratulations! Poor picture? Try adjusting the antennas on each device to hopefully achieve good reception. (Poor reception will have rolling lines through it.) Still poor reception? Box it up, send it back, and buy a wired system. Perhaps the First Alert brand. It worked well for me.

Great inexpensive product
This is a great product for viewing any activity at your front door or driveway areas. You can also set it up in a nursery or watch a pet run. Good value for the money.

Essentail
This book is certainly one of its kind in presenting an important aspect of the Arabic language not well covered in the standard books on Arabic grammar. Each chapter begins with a text for reading highlighting some connectors that will be then discussed in detail. A translation of the text is provided. Each chapter has numerous examples followed by exercises.The utility of the book can be increased by providing vocabulary and key to the exercises for someone studying the book without a teacher.

Total Addict!
I can't wait to add this to my collection! I am a complete 70s Show addict! I watch an episode almost daily and can't get enough of all re-runs on TV. Although, I will say that as the series winds to an end it does lose some of it's earlier zest. Who care? I love the show!!
