0	Might as well fan yourself with your hand and save on batteries.	I always rely on Amazon customer reviews - this is the first time I have been so completely disappointed. I had to hold the fan 10 inches from my face before I felt any circulating air, and that was with the fan on High. Due to the size and shape of the fan blades, no air comes out of the center of the fan; what little breeze there is comes out in a small stream on the sides of the fan. I won't comment on the light, since I wasn't interested it that option. Just got it, and I am sending it right back.	negative
0	cliche-ridden	Really, what a boring book this is. So full of wretched stereotypes. And the price - for 2 minutes of amusement? Spare me!	negative
1	I bought this to use a a hide for mt Tegus	Nice very heavy plastic. I like it.............I bought this to turn upside down to use as a hide for mt Tegus	positive
0	Do NOT WASTE Your Time	This book, to put it nicely, was not one of my favorites.. It was a sleeper and waste of my tiome and money. Too, too much drama and not enough sense or purpose. Better Luck Next Time	negative
0	Black Water	Filter was installed on the ice maker water line. Went to get ice cubes the next day and they were black. Flush filter before installing.	negative
1	Ordering another one today!	My daughter and son-in-law live in a small, narrow 3-story Brooklyn apartment where the heat is fairly expensive and not very well dispersed, ie, there are hot and cold "spots", especially on the living room floor where the baby plays. They have one of these little heaters in their bedroom as well as the nursery, and one in the living room, and they really put out the heat! A very nice feature is that they don't run "all the time", ie, once it reaches a certain level, it turns itself off. This is great for the baby's room. I also notice that it seems to be able to disperse the heat fairly far for such a tiny little box. I'm buying one today for my office!I have no idea why anyone would think this is noisy. I don't even hear it and there's nothing wrong with my hearing.As young actors, they are very concerned about the budget, and both told me these heaters are negligible in terms of running up the electric bills.Buy one, you'll be glad you did. Best $20 you can spend.Anne	positive
0	A Flimsy Antenna	I bought this antenna to replace the one over 20 years old on my roof. My house is about 55 miles from Milwaukee, marked as blue zone on CEA website.The manual of the antenna is totally useless, The hardware doesn't match the list either. I had to figure out how to assembly it by looking at the picture on the box. Fortunately it is easy enough and took me less than 30 minutes to put things togather. The antenna is flimsy and huge, the parts would break or bend easily, I had to be very careful when moving or turning it.The reception of VHF is good, better than my old antenna equiped with a 26dB amplifier, channel 10 is almost perfect, while 4, 6 and 12 are good to very good. However, the UHF has not been improved at all.I also tried Chicago towers about 45 miles away (violet zone according to CEA), got simular results, good to very good VHF and poor UHF.I returned it to the store because I was worrying the parts could fall down in the wind and UHF was not good enough.	negative
0	I had hoped for more	I read reviews about this book, and thought that it would give me a chance to try to understand. I live in Los Angeles, and all I knew were news reports.The concept of chapters as "minutes" was interesting.Before I continue, I must tell you that I did not read all the chapters, I sometimes skimmed here and there. To be quite honest, the book did not work for me. There were a few chapters that touched me, but most of the book felt cold.Perhaps I would read it differently a few years from now.My final comment, the author is French, he has a different perspective. Do not discount this book just because I am American. Perhaps it is too soon for me to read it. Or, perhaps, he does not understand, himself, enough to write about this. I do not know....time will tell.Charlie_in_LA	negative
1	DARNED GOOD	Good songs, different vocalists, demo's with new guy, nice mix. Interesting booklet, the history of Zao. 60 minutes of pure clean christian hardcore, metalcore, whatever, heavy metal? Okay. Support Zao, buy their cds, they are amazing!	positive
1	Flashpoint IV	I love this series and am really miffed that it was taken off CBS. Yeah, it is on ION, but it airs at 11 PM and I don't stay up that late.As for the product I bought, there are two episodes that go blank near the end so I don't get to see the finish. Unfortunately, by the time I was able to watch the DVD's it was too late to complain. So -- the series is a great series but my copy is missing two endings.5 stars for the series2.5 stars for the product.	positive
1	great book, terrible binding	I'm using this book for a quilt making class that I'm taking. My classmates and I all really enjoy the book, but by the second day of class, every single one of our books was falling apart, pages coming right out of the bindings.If you're serious about using this book, consider taking it to Kinko's and getting it spiral bound. Otherwise, you'll be missing half of the pages within hours of opening the book for the first time.	positive
1	Works well, but I have to stay still	I've owned quite a few handheld mics in my time. Lately i have been wanting to have more freedom of movement for my hands.This is the first lavalier mic that I have had a chance to own. While the mic allowed my hands to move as free as I choose, when I moved or walked around from place to place I got a bit of static.Its still a great mic at its price, but I just wish that it would allow for a bit more range of motion. Hopefully soon I will be able to pay for a wireless system from Audio Technica which would eliminate this problem. They make a wonderful product.Overall this is a great mic for the price and I recommend it if you are using it for applications where you arent moving around too much.	positive
1	Nifty little panel solar cooker	This little panel solar cooker is good for pasteurizing water for drinking and for cooking stews, potatoes, cassaroles, and other vegetables. The tempertures I got were barely above 250 degrees (that was in the Spring, March, April and part of May). I probably could have gotten up to 270 degrees in the Summer months here in Summer, but I didn't try them. I built a larger oven that reached close to 300 degrees in May for about 10 dollars. This is a good starter oven and will work well as a survival appliance when long power outages are upon you. I have both stored away for survival purposes. I haven't tried to bake bread with them. I probably could but the baking time would have to be increased by about a couple of hours which is no biggee. With two or three of these ovens you could cook a whole meal outdoors. Just cook only what you can eat that day or invite the neighbors in for a meal. If your power is out, you won't be able to store leftovers in the fridge.	positive
1	Amazing	Love it! Great piece of writing by Kathryn Lasky she kept me engaged and dying to read the next book in her already amazing series. All in all great plot details and personality of characters	positive
1	HE slips a little but still a well worth waiting conclusion!	Not as great as every other book but wow what an ending!	positive
1	Good book	I love a book that happends during the holidays. The author entertains you with this light hearted story. I would recommend this book.	positive
1	Great book brings you to a surprising climax.	Diehl masterfully weaves a web of intrigue and surprise. A must read book. Once you pick it up, you'll want to read it until the end. It is a great book that brings you to a surprising clima	positive
0	Hard to read, lacks clarity	Boy, this book is HARD to read for somebody without a PhD in Statistics. The language oftentimes is far from clear. Examples and explanations are not obvious at all. The author makes a lot of implicit assumptions. I had to get a few other books on Bayesian networks in order to understand author's explanations.	negative
0	Horrible!	If you were waiting for this, you wasted your time! The absolute WORST game I ever played! posts signCAUTION: DO NOT BUY THIS GAMEThere. Take the advice of the sign.	negative
1	Very sensitive	I was really impressed about this senistive insight in a world, which we able bodied people don't know so good.	positive
1	Good, but not as good as the first 2 seasons	I loved the first 2 seasons of this show. While I continue to like this series, it seems that the characters are starting to trend towards an unnecessary level of silliness. The topics and writing continue to be funny, so I don't quite understand why the acting has to go to such absurd extremes.	positive
1	Hamish MacBeth	This is a delightful series and once you have read one, you will want to read all of them. Start from the first book and just keep going. You won't want to put them down. Good plots, character development and settings. Hamish is never dull.	positive

0	1 Great Song...The Rest are Mediocre	I was curious to check this CD out because it had one song I already liked on it, "Urubu (Bossa Cuca Nova Remix)", which is by the way a great song! However the rest of the album was very disappointing. This CD did not do as good a job as it could have in fusing together traditional bossa nova elements with modern electronica-acid jazz-jazzanova sounds. Maybe the only reason why I feel this way is because I have had the pleasure of being able to listen to a lot of great new electronic Brazilian music. If you want to hear a really great CD featuring this kind of electronic jazzanova music, I would recommend "Cafe Samba".	negative
0	Steer way clear of this product!	After my subscription to NIS 2002 expired, I made the mistake of upgrading to 2003. It was never stable, only worked half the time and was causing numerous system problems. In desperation, I finally uninstalled and reinstalled. Big mistake! After the reinstall my computer wouldn't boot at all. I finally managed to get my hard drive reverted to a point after the uninstall but before the reinstall. Even with the product supposedly unistalled, my system is very unstable. I have heard from others that uninstall doesn't completely wipe this monster from your system.	negative
1	Burn is Right!	This is a tough workout. I consider myself fit and the first time I tried the full hour, I could not finish with the weights I normally use. There are no new moves in here, but it's not boring. I also feel like I get some cardio because there is very little rest between sets. I will look at more of his DVDs.	positive
0	Terrible.	I have other Gold Toe socks. Those are excellent. This particular model has terrible elastic at the top, making them sink well into my shoes around the heel after walking around in them briefly at work. On the upside, I'm sure it looks sexy to all the females when I'm spending most of my morning pulling my socks up.	negative
1	Educational & Fascinating!	A fantastic insight into how the man became the legend. Read about his passion, motivation & work-aholic ethics & how they make him continually strive for more. I'd highly recommend this to anyone interested in knowing where John Bongiovi came from & the path he & his bandmates followed in getting to where they are today. Goes up to 2003. Where's the next book?! This was brilliant - I want more!	positive
1	Overall, a good cd	This is a pretty good cd with a wide variety of music. The "Goldrush Suite" is fun to listen to, as is the Phil Woods excerpt. "American Sketches" is played fine, and is written to represent the ethnic background of each of the players. The whole composition of the piece could use a little more sparkle, but the players do it justice. Overall, a good cd, well played, though not outstanding.	positive
1	Good...But Could Use More	I enjoy the soundtrack a lot, although much of the music in the movie is not on the soundtrack (most notably Summer Wind, This Town, and Beyond the Sea). Otherwise, it's very enjoyable. My personal favorite is Matchstick Men and Weird is Good (a little odd, but good). With the exception of some essential tracks missing, it's overall good.	positive
1	Good Read!	What an excellent book! "If the Shoe Fits" is tightly plotted, well written mystery that keeps you guessing to the end. The author deftly bring Shagoni River to life and peoples it with dozens of likeable people. Protagonist Tracy Quinn is a smart sassy lady with a good heart and an open mind.I like the way the author quietly plants the key clue to the mystery early in the book. In fact, she did a great job of scattering plot points throughout the book and then following through with them. I suspect that the author has a series coming out of this, because this novel leaves me wanting to know more.	positive
0	Too Far Fetched	i really enjoyed the Great White Lie so i bought this book . not believable 2 thumbs down , way down	negative
0	Come on Nintendo!	GEEZ...this wormlight STINKS. The glare spot is annoying, the position (on the top instead of on the side) is distracting, and I just can't understand why Nintendo can't get a better solution. I was so excited about Gameboy Advance...but I would have to say that the whole thing has been a let down. The Wormlight is just one of the many.	negative
1	The best discworld novel; for beginners or veterans	I've read nearly all of them and this is my favorite. Definitely check out the ones with Death in a lead role (like Mort for instance)	positive
1	Wonderful. I recommend to everybody !!	Bismillah, prayers, the Resurrection, why humanity and the universe were created, the Qur'an and modern thinking, Hadith, natural calamities, the Divine Being and His Attributes and acts, worldly life, Messengership, the Qur'an's references to scientific advances, Divine Unity, belief, and worship.The Qur'an's miraculousness, Divine Decree and Destiny and human free will, ijtihad, the Companions, the schools of law, Paradise and Hell, angels and jinn and other spirit beings, the world's destruction, the Resurrection, the human ego, particles, the Ascension, and God's Existence and Unity.	positive
0	Not a Fan!	This was my first book by this author, and it will be my last. I slogged about two thirds of the way through this book before I decided I had had enough. I agree with others who said it was very predictable. I did not like the characters or the plot. It was definitely not my style.	negative
1	This kitchen rocks!	We bought this kitchen for my daughter's 2nd birthday, and couldn't be happier. It really does take about 2 hours and a lot of concentration to put together, but it is worth it. (Two pieces were damaged when we received it, but when we called the manufacturer, the shipped out new ones immediately with no hassle). I highly recommend this kitchen over the plastic ones; this will last much longer. It is the perfect size for our daughter and there is lots of room to grow into it too. She plays with it pretty much every day. Cora is constantly washing her hands in the sink and making her favortite dish, "mac & cheese". A great buy.	positive
1	Has some quirks, overall a good phone	Pros:- Interface is well done- Easy to transfer themes, MP3 ringtones, contacts, etc. via Bluetooth- Sony software makes it easy to create your own themes with their software- Was very simple to configure as a modem for my iBookCons:- Early version had a software bug that required the phone be restarted every couple of days (fixed February of '06)- Camera button cannot be locked, and often goes off in pocket (until the memory is full, then it's no longer a problem)	positive
0	produced very poorly	I just bought the instant streaming version of this... and will prolly never complete it - simply because the vocal - where mike is screaming out the commands to his class... is about 4 times as loud as the music.... awful awful awful	negative
1	SUPERB EXPLAINATIONS AND TEST TIPS	I found this study guide to be of great assistance while preparing for the new CCNA 640-607 test. I particularly like the test tips and ease of reading the material.This study guide will get your attention and you will not be bored by it. Gets straight to the point without the useless fillers that I have seen in other books.	positive
0	not helpful	I felt a little stinging at each use and at first it seemed like my bumps would go down, but by the next morning, my zits become bigger.	negative
0	never worked	This thing is junk, the hoses never spun around like shown on the picture.I gave it away to some more needy kids to play with.	negative
1	greatly needed	I saw the movie in the theater. I took my kids and some friends. It was great. Ben Stein had the courage to ask the questions and demand answers, which they could not supply. I believe children should have the opportunity to hear this. I will be buying this movie and passing it around.Renea	positive
0	Tells it like it is, music is sad xcept for couple songs	The music may be a little sucky sure, but the words and the cussing is awesome!!!Who cares is this album is some wierd mix of indie and radio-hype... these guys are hatin life and say it.While I could not honestly say the music is good across most of the tracks, I gave these guys a point for attitude.	negative
0	Disappointed	I purchased the Microsoft game pad to go with this game, but it doesn't let me pick off a guy at first or second. Also, I followed the directions on the gamepad for pitching but the computer team continually clobbers my pitching. My pitches seem to all come in at the same speed and the same location no matter what I do and I'm usually losing, 10-3 in the third inning. One hit after another, one game after another. Not very realistic. Definitely tilted unequally towards the computer.Would not recommend this game unless it levels the playing field. Have gone back to my High Heat Baseball 2002.	negative
0	Not for casual reading	Like the many recent Academy Award winning films, which are painful to watch and win awards because of the utilization of a bold new method or a controversial topic, The Sound and the Fury leaves those seaking pleasure and entertainment extremely wanting and those reading academically enthralled. To that end, unless you are looking to read the book to impress your English professor, don't waste your time with this book. Not only does the story turn out to lack complexity and intrigue, but three-quarters of the novel is largely illegible. English professors and those that aspire to such, will say that this was the innovation of some kind of new method and is literature at its best, but for those that read for something other than academic study, it is grueling to read through.	negative
0	GARBAGE!!!!	Don't waste a dime on this!!! Not very realistic and you don't even you the remote to slash. You point and the enemy with the remote and then press a button to cut them...WHAT A WASTE OF WII TECHNOLOGY!!! Wait for RED STEEL 2! :)	negative
1	Convenient device to check BP	This device is very convenient to use, easy to operate and has a comfortable hand cuff. It is close to accurate. I would say 'close to accurate' because when you take consecutive 2 or more readings and average it, it comes out to be the same as with the professional monitor that the doctor checks with. I took this as a gift for my father-in-law and mother-in law and they are very happy with the product. This helps them to regularly monitor their blood pressure without the hassle of taking a doctor's appointment for it and visiting the doctor.	positive
1	Expresiveness and impeccable technique	Keith Jarret pulls off an admirable interpretation of an extremely beautiful and difficult work. Shostakovich's Preludes and Fugues were inspired by Bach's Wohltemperierte Klavier. Like the latter work, they are meant as an expansion of existing modes of musical expression and in this sense are the great Soviet composer's most lasting intellectual contribution.Jarreth gives a magical interpretation of each of these pieces. His playing is characterised by total contrapunctal transparency, unaffected nuance, and an expressiveness that ranges from tenderness to dramatic violence. Every note is different, and has its own voice and character. What never ceases to amaze me, is how Jarrett, who is not otherwise a specialist of the Russian repertoire, has managed to impress on his recording the unique, revolutionary, brazen, ballet-like bravura so characteristic of great Soviet pianists. I hope dearly, he will take on other Russian composers.	positive
1	Great Fun	A great airplane read. Sure it is fanatasy and a bit over the top. But, so are Spiderman and Superman. A very fast read that requires little mental effort. If you want to be entertained, this is a good book for you.	positive
1	I kneel to Neil.	This is one Neil Young album that the majority of people will judge before they even hear it. Meaning, any anti-Bush, pro-USA, Neil fan will enjoy it. For the most part that's probably true. It is mostly track after track of ripping apart the Bush administration and war, yet also maintaining a sense of hope and love for the country. Lyrically that's what it is. Musically I find it's similar to his mid-90's album "Mirror Ball". It's rocking Neil for the most part, and appropriate for the topics. Not every song is a winner, but I really like the tracks "The Restless Consumer", "Let's Impeach The President", and "Lookin' For A Leader". Subtle? Not really, but I like it.	positive
1	Resonant.	This isn't on the level of Kangaroo Jack or Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, but it'll do.	positive
0	Dial too high above scale	Its not evident from the photo but the dial is actually not flush with the scale, it is 4-5" above, meaning that you have to slip your feet underneath the dial when you stand on the scale. This ruins the retro look. I was very disappointed and returned the product.	negative
0	A Waste of Time and Money	There is more self promotion and self serving praise to Howard Block than there is substance. He is certainly getting by in the industry without posessing a grasp of technology. Why anyone would buy a book written by Howard is amazing to me. When you read his writings you wonder how this guy ever graduated High School, let alone how he became a self proclaimed expert of anything. Howard completely re-writes the Silverstream On Line help databases and his book is no more than a blatent copy of what Silverstream has already written. Don't buy this book, unless you are Howard Block's Aunt or Uncle and want to give him money for no reason.	negative
1	fast fun reading	This was another of Stephanie's great stories. The main character always seems to be an average girl who is a bit on the clutsy side. But it is always fun reading and enjoyable. This book is no different in that it fits with her style. Fun fun.	positive
1	Do not miss this	This book started me in a totally new direction.The concepts make sense and are easy to apply.I would recommend this to anyone searching for alternative healing methods.	positive
0	Maybe Her Second Book....	Troubling a sit is to review a book such as this, I feel that certain things must be said. The title portends one thing and the contents deliver quite another. That is not good news for the reader. But more of a problem is the premise this person has embraced. I found the plotting to be a bit dense and the characters as plastic as a 2-litre bottle of grocery store soda, not even Coca-Cola or Pepsi. The effort shows a desire and perhaps this writer will score a winner on her next go-round....	negative
0	Buy it for the CD only	There is only one reason to buy this book--for the CD. I found the book to be poorly written, bland and superficial. Of course, I had just finished reading "Citizens of London.." by Lynne Olsen, which is one of the best books I have ever read, period. I kept thinking to myself when I read "World War II On the Air:..." that it was written for middle schoolers. Honestly, I'm glad I didn't pay too much it. So, if you want to listen to the voices of radio from WWII, buy this book, but read "The Murrow Boys" by Olsen or "Citizens of London" for the history.	negative
0	Did not like	Did not like the book. It seems to clash with my christian belief. But at least it gave me an idea of what cabala is.	negative
0	Poor DVD transfer	The transfer to DVD is very poor (worse I have seen yet). There are so many artifacts in the video as well as black portions of the letter box that is can be quite distracting. The movie is a great movie but save the dough and by it on VHS or see in when it is on cable.	negative
0	Terrible C.D.!	I hate having the same first name as Jennifer Lopez! Her music is awful! This C.D. is awful! Don't buy it; it is a waste of money!Also, I hate Jennifer Lopez as a person. She grew up poor, yet she never gives any aid to poor people. She doesn't care about anything but money.To find out more about why I hate Jennifer Lopez so much, go to http://www.jlodown.com/	negative
1	The Offspring's new CD,"Americana" kicks	This track is definitely worth spending money on, it's hip rythym gets you singing along instantly.Quote the Kinko never more.2:24	positive
1	Unusual	Although there aren't any main stream actors in the movie it does have an intriguing story line and surprising ending. Not an A list movie but certainly different and better than most of the other B type movies out there.	positive
1	Great price for a good length cord	The title says it all -- a very fair price ($13 at the time I bought it) for a very good length cord. This is a better deal than you can find most places. It does everything you need it to, and although the gauge is relatively thin, it works fine, and I don't notice any sound quality loss or distortion at all. Pleased.	positive
1	Classic	This is approved in CCSD high schools. It is a classic - get cliff notes too and your child can't loose.	positive
0	Dave Dudley Trucker Classics	NOT what I expected!!! Not the original Dave Dudley songs that I enjoyed. Must be later versions. Great old trucker songs, but the lyrics and music of even his songs are not the same as the originals. BIG LET DOWN!!! Look for earlier versions of this GREAT artist if you can find them!!	negative
0	Old Zelda Rockz	Ok look the original Zelda was Awsome but all this new cartoon stuff is simply horrible. Before when i heard Zelda i thought of Link from "The Ocarana Of Time" but now i think of the True Gayness of the little Cartoonie Charachters. i am truely dissapointed at the way the game has evolved.	negative
0	Not quite as good	Set one year after "Halloween 4", Jamie Lloyd (Danielle Harris) is in a children's psychiatric hospital, and she seems to have a psychic connection to her uncle Michael Myers. On hand is Dr. Sam Loomis (Donald Pleasance), who wants Jamie to reveal where Michael is. But for some reason Jamie can't speak, and Loomis wants to use her as bait to trap Myers. That sets the tone for the rest of the film, which isn't saying much: Myer's mask looks too different, routine unimaginative murders, no real scares, and the introduction of a subplot involving a mysterious man dressed in black that goes nowhere. The Myers house here (as in "Halloween 4") is completely different than in the first two films. Points taken off for the death of plucky Rachel (Ellie Cornell) early in the film. The ending is unsatisfactory, and doesn't really take us anywhere. Thank God this series was rescued nine years later with "Halloween H20".	negative
1	The Best!	I always liked Michael McDonald's voice, that is why I bought this cd, and I can't believe how much I like it. He has a wonderful voice, and the way he interprets these old favorites is beyond belief.	positive
0	Edgy	I have heard of Brian Eno for years, but never bought any of his music. And I think I'm glad I never have. His music sounds contrived and strained. It didn't sound relaxing. There are other artists whose ambient music is superior.	negative
0	Is it over yet?	A few disturbing scenes with a wanna be Andrea Yates and jump out heart attack spots didn't cut it. My wife and I fell asleep half way through it.	negative
0	Good luck	I bought it for the "big rig" as a travel clock while i'm on the road. Worked 1 day then stopped working.It seemed to be well made (as much as electronics are these days) but since it stopped working I cannot vouch for it's usefulness. Avoid it IMO.	negative
0	Not worth Buying	This style is for broadway. The songs are blend!.. He will not last making those type of songs!	negative
1	Straight up, unfiltered, 100% pure blues	With little more than the steady stomp of his foot, the virtuosic hum of his guitar, and his famously murky voice, John Lee Hooker makes blues magic. These are wry, witty, beautifully simple songs, and if you don't find your foot tapping in time to the rhythm at least once, you haven't been paying attention.Considering these songs were recorded 50 years ago, the sound is remarkable pristine and pure, with the exception of the disc's liveliest tune, the pleasantly scratchy "Mad Man Blues," and "Hey Boogie." There's at least one odd hiccup-- track 8, "Lonely Boy Boogie", ends abruptly in mid-song-- but otherwise, this is a satisfying and soulful disc for those in need of a blues fix.	positive
0	Hastily fabricated	Although the author claims to have high credentials, he presents very lousy descriptions of exercises, with complete disregard to grace or esthetics.As soon as you pass the well designed and colorful cover, you will be immersed in a collection of poorly sketched exercises. Each exercise is described in three or more steps, which provide no clue on the proper execution of exercise. Most of the exercise sketches are flawed and hint to the total lack of experience or exposure of the author to athletic performance.Although the book was first published in 1996, there were then reasonable level of technical skills and knowledge with publishing good illustrations that the author disregarded.	negative
1	The only pen I use.	This is a fantastic pen and the only pen I use now. Will write on white out, though you do have to let it dry for a bit afterwards.It's the cadillac of pens. Very smooth and tough.The ink will last for quite awhile.	positive
0	Fantasy? Fiction?	While I do believe the evidence is there that loans and aid to developing countries have served primarily to enrich corporations like Bechtel and Halliburton while hamstringing third world governments with horrifying debts, this book is not believable!I think that Perkins has channeled some alter-ego or something. I mean, come on, since when do big consultants recruit people through seducers who reveal a plan for empire, or put people with undergraduate degrees who "teach themselves" econometrics in charge of their economics forecasting? What makes a sex-obsessed young man in his early 20s psychologically unique? How important does this guy think he is, the "kindred spirit" to assasinated presidents?I wonder how hard the publishers checked any of these facts--this reads to me like Carlos Castenada or James Bond--a ridiculous, self-serving fantasy!Unfortunately for me, I share the author's political agenda. I wish he were on the other side!	negative
1	s wrenches	great wrenches for hard to reach bolts and nuts. I used it numerous times very first week. I love it.	positive
0	Record Company Cash In	Let's face it, this an attempt to rip us off by releasing second-rate previously unreleased material alongside the classic AIC we all know. Music from the original albums and EP's: A. Sea of Sorrow Demo: A. Pre-Facelift Demos: F- (sounds like Guns N Roses). All Other Demos and Remixes: F. Positives: Picked the right songs to leave off the box from Facelift. Negatives: Didn't include the entire albums or EP's, Previously Unreleased material ( ). Conclusion: Get the original albums and be happy.	negative
0	The Worst Musical In the World	After finishing "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" by Robert Louis Stevenson and loving it, I rented this musical hoping to get a good musical adaptation of the book. Once it started, I realized it had very little to do with the novel. After realizing it, I didn't care about that too much.The show opens with "Behind the Facade," which I liked a lot, but the rest of the show is HORRIBLE. David Hasselhoff plays the doctor and the madman in the show, and neither one is portrayed good. Former "Baywatch" star should never have been cast in a musical. Not only is his singing bad, but his acting is horrible. The music by Frank Wildhorn is dull and uninteresting, making the experience long and boring. I jumped for joy when it was over!All in all, this musical is horrible. Save yourself from a dull experience and don't watch it.	negative
0	WOW!! THIS MOVIE IS TERRIBLE!!!!	I give this movie 1 star for the fact that im a fan of Corey Feldman. His names on the cover of this garbage, yet hes in the actual movie for less then 2 minutes. This junk is 90 minutes of fake alien news casts strung together to tell the story. Very Lame. Do not buy. You will be dissapointed. Youve been warned!!!	negative
0	Hey can you please do one on Romney?	Hey can you please do one on Romney? Where the hell is a Romney movie, everyone says they need more information before they vote, but all I see is about Obama and little to none on Romney, like he fought the court to keep the libertarian off the ballot. You don't believe me, look it up, get informed. Even better how about a movie that talks about a two party system that has ran this country since the beginning and Americans can't see that neither one has done nothing for "Us" you know as in this movie "We The People"	negative
0	The Quality isn't a good explanatory variable for the price	Actually I do think that this book is too expensive, it is not worth to buy it. It spends five chapter (167 pages), more than 60% of the book, to teach matrix algebra, reader can easy read the detail matrix algebra review from many econometric texts such as Greene and Johnston. I don't think this part is helpful. For the last three chapters, it just discuss the material about OLS, all of these can be easy found in some introductory econometric text. I don't think it is very useful for anyone to read this book before studying other econometic text.	negative
1	i'm a mama papa coming for you	I love how this album keeps coming back into my life. I heard it for the first time in college (the first go-around, with some friends in Santa Cruz) and now it's blasting out of the trailer for Wes Anderson's latest flick.Rest assured there is way more to this one than the ubiquitous 'Ziggy'. One can even forget about that God-awful Bauhaus cover or Bowie's forays into jungle and 'industrial'. Like one reviewer put it so well, it flows seamlessly from track to track. And that production! For stereo geeks, there is nothing else quite like it (OK, well maybe Lou Reed's 'Transformer' which is really just Bowie with Lou on top)...that freeze-dried sound: the drums that pound like the inside of your head; the glam guitar that slides up your vertebrae like a tasty IPA from that pub 'ol Carrot Top is posed outside of on the cover....yeah yeah I could go on but I won't.	positive

1	Ey Up	This disc is a collection of Peel Session from perhaps one of the most the singular and unclassifiable talents ever to emerge from the UK. He is sadly missed.This collection contains material from 1973-1990 and clearly demonstrates the consistency of Coyne's work through the years. His gravelly voice singing his sometimes tender, sometimes uhinged songs , some of which here are almost totally improvised, is the key sound of this disc. Even a variety of backing musicians seems to have no real effect on the overall sound, other than to enhance Coyne's wonderful tunes.If you are already familiar with Kevin Coyne's work then you know that this is well worth owning, for the beginner this may be a little too much to take.	positive

1	My 16 yr old likes it	I bought this for my 16 yr old who is interested in game art. He is excited that he has already finished the first task in the book and is thinking about what he's going to do with the next few chapters.The only problem with the book is the CD that comes with it has the old version of the student 3D program on it and we couldn't get a registration key from the website for the older version. We ended up loading the newer version free from the webite, which is great, but some of the button references are different in the new program than how they are explained in the book. He's cool with it and has figured out how to find what he needs. He says the book is very informative and has helped him to understand the 3D art a lot better and he can already see in games how some of the things are put together.This book has been a good buy for us and a good investment in keeping our son interested in learning more about game art.	positive

1	SGA	Good show! I did not like the end episode but it was one of the best in the season. I don't see this show going on to much longer. They are already using themes from SG1 and the creators are writing as if it was another Dr. Daniel LtCol O'Neal Maj Sam Carter and Tealc (McKay, Shepherd, Teyla and Ronan). I for one am tried of the humans always struggling for everything. I say they should have a few episodes that show us on top. I have been following this show for around 10 years and while I miss my Stargate SG1 I don't want this show to ruin my memories of it. They already almost missed it up with the new leader of SG1 and the last two seasons that were out of touch with SG1' fan base. Anyway I still watch this show and will continue because I just love how the writers make this new world and the actors/director put it in reality.	positive

Might as well fan yourself with your hand and save on batteries.

I always rely on Amazon customer reviews - this is the first time I have been so completely disappointed. I had to hold the fan 10 inches from my face before I felt any circulating air, and that was with the fan on High. Due to the size and shape of the fan blades, no air comes out of the center of the fan; what little breeze there is comes out in a small stream on the sides of the fan. I won't comment on the light, since I wasn't interested it that option. Just got it, and I am sending it right back.

Ordering another one today!

My daughter and son-in-law live in a small, narrow 3-story Brooklyn apartment where the heat is fairly expensive and not very well dispersed, ie, there are hot and cold "spots", especially on the living room floor where the baby plays. They have one of these little heaters in their bedroom as well as the nursery, and one in the living room, and they really put out the heat! A very nice feature is that they don't run "all the time", ie, once it reaches a certain level, it turns itself off. This is great for the baby's room. I also notice that it seems to be able to disperse the heat fairly far for such a tiny little box. I'm buying one today for my office!I have no idea why anyone would think this is noisy. I don't even hear it and there's nothing wrong with my hearing.As young actors, they are very concerned about the budget, and both told me these heaters are negligible in terms of running up the electric bills.Buy one, you'll be glad you did. Best $20 you can spend.Anne

A Flimsy Antenna

I bought this antenna to replace the one over 20 years old on my roof. My house is about 55 miles from Milwaukee, marked as blue zone on CEA website.The manual of the antenna is totally useless, The hardware doesn't match the list either. I had to figure out how to assembly it by looking at the picture on the box. Fortunately it is easy enough and took me less than 30 minutes to put things togather. The antenna is flimsy and huge, the parts would break or bend easily, I had to be very careful when moving or turning it.The reception of VHF is good, better than my old antenna equiped with a 26dB amplifier, channel 10 is almost perfect, while 4, 6 and 12 are good to very good. However, the UHF has not been improved at all.I also tried Chicago towers about 45 miles away (violet zone according to CEA), got simular results, good to very good VHF and poor UHF.I returned it to the store because I was worrying the parts could fall down in the wind and UHF was not good enough.

I had hoped for more

I read reviews about this book, and thought that it would give me a chance to try to understand. I live in Los Angeles, and all I knew were news reports.The concept of chapters as "minutes" was interesting.Before I continue, I must tell you that I did not read all the chapters, I sometimes skimmed here and there. To be quite honest, the book did not work for me. There were a few chapters that touched me, but most of the book felt cold.Perhaps I would read it differently a few years from now.My final comment, the author is French, he has a different perspective. Do not discount this book just because I am American. Perhaps it is too soon for me to read it. Or, perhaps, he does not understand, himself, enough to write about this. I do not know....time will tell.Charlie_in_LA

Flashpoint IV

I love this series and am really miffed that it was taken off CBS. Yeah, it is on ION, but it airs at 11 PM and I don't stay up that late.As for the product I bought, there are two episodes that go blank near the end so I don't get to see the finish. Unfortunately, by the time I was able to watch the DVD's it was too late to complain. So -- the series is a great series but my copy is missing two endings.5 stars for the series2.5 stars for the product.

great book, terrible binding

I'm using this book for a quilt making class that I'm taking. My classmates and I all really enjoy the book, but by the second day of class, every single one of our books was falling apart, pages coming right out of the bindings.If you're serious about using this book, consider taking it to Kinko's and getting it spiral bound. Otherwise, you'll be missing half of the pages within hours of opening the book for the first time.

Works well, but I have to stay still

I've owned quite a few handheld mics in my time. Lately i have been wanting to have more freedom of movement for my hands.This is the first lavalier mic that I have had a chance to own. While the mic allowed my hands to move as free as I choose, when I moved or walked around from place to place I got a bit of static.Its still a great mic at its price, but I just wish that it would allow for a bit more range of motion. Hopefully soon I will be able to pay for a wireless system from Audio Technica which would eliminate this problem. They make a wonderful product.Overall this is a great mic for the price and I recommend it if you are using it for applications where you arent moving around too much.

Nifty little panel solar cooker

This little panel solar cooker is good for pasteurizing water for drinking and for cooking stews, potatoes, cassaroles, and other vegetables. The tempertures I got were barely above 250 degrees (that was in the Spring, March, April and part of May). I probably could have gotten up to 270 degrees in the Summer months here in Summer, but I didn't try them. I built a larger oven that reached close to 300 degrees in May for about 10 dollars. This is a good starter oven and will work well as a survival appliance when long power outages are upon you. I have both stored away for survival purposes. I haven't tried to bake bread with them. I probably could but the baking time would have to be increased by about a couple of hours which is no biggee. With two or three of these ovens you could cook a whole meal outdoors. Just cook only what you can eat that day or invite the neighbors in for a meal. If your power is out, you won't be able to store leftovers in the fridge.

1 Great Song...The Rest are Mediocre

I was curious to check this CD out because it had one song I already liked on it, "Urubu (Bossa Cuca Nova Remix)", which is by the way a great song! However the rest of the album was very disappointing. This CD did not do as good a job as it could have in fusing together traditional bossa nova elements with modern electronica-acid jazz-jazzanova sounds. Maybe the only reason why I feel this way is because I have had the pleasure of being able to listen to a lot of great new electronic Brazilian music. If you want to hear a really great CD featuring this kind of electronic jazzanova music, I would recommend "Cafe Samba".

Steer *way* clear of this product!

After my subscription to NIS 2002 expired, I made the mistake of upgrading to 2003. It was never stable, only worked half the time and was causing numerous system problems. In desperation, I finally uninstalled and reinstalled. Big mistake! After the reinstall my computer wouldn't boot at all. I finally managed to get my hard drive reverted to a point after the uninstall but before the reinstall. Even with the product supposedly unistalled, my system is very unstable.

Overall, a good cd

This is a pretty good cd with a wide variety of music. The "Goldrush Suite" is fun to listen to, as is the Phil Woods excerpt. "American Sketches" is played fine, and is written to represent the ethnic background of each of the players. The whole composition of the piece could use a little more sparkle, but the players do it justice. Overall, a good cd, well played, though not outstanding.

I enjoy the soundtrack a lot, although much of the music in the movie is not on the soundtrack (most notably Summer Wind, This Town, and Beyond the Sea). Otherwise, it's very enjoyable.

Good Read!

What an excellent book! "If the Shoe Fits" is tightly plotted, well written mystery that keeps you guessing to the end. The author deftly bring Shagoni River to life and peoples it with dozens of likeable people. Protagonist Tracy Quinn is a smart sassy lady with a good heart and an open mind.I like the way the author quietly plants the key clue to the mystery early in the book. In fact, she did a great job of scattering plot points throughout the book and then following through with them. I suspect that the author has a series coming out of this, because this novel leaves me wanting to know more.

We bought this kitchen for my daughter's 2nd birthday, and couldn't be happier. It really does take about 2 hours and a lot of concentration to put together, but it is worth it.

I highly recommend this kitchen over the plastic ones; this will last much longer. It is the perfect size for our daughter and there is lots of room to grow into it too. She plays with it pretty much every day. Cora is constantly washing her hands in the sink and making her favortite dish, "mac & cheese". A great buy.

I purchased the Microsoft game pad to go with this game, but it doesn't let me pick off a guy at first or second. Also, I followed the directions on the gamepad for pitching but the computer team continually clobbers my pitching. My pitches seem to all come in at the same speed and the same location no matter what I do and I'm usually losing, 10-3 in the third inning. One hit after another, one game after another. Not very realistic. Definitely tilted unequally towards the computer.Would not recommend this game unless it levels the playing field. Have gone back to my High Heat Baseball 2002.

Not for casual reading

Like the many recent Academy Award winning films, which are painful to watch and win awards because of the utilization of a bold new method or a controversial topic, The Sound and the Fury leaves those seaking pleasure and entertainment extremely wanting and those reading academically enthralled. To that end, unless you are looking to read the book to impress your English professor, don't waste your time with this book. Not only does the story turn out to lack complexity and intrigue, but three-quarters of the novel is largely illegible. English professors and those that aspire to such, will say that this was the innovation of some kind of new method and is literature at its best, but for those that read for something other than academic study, it is grueling to read through.

Convenient device to check BP

This device is very convenient to use, easy to operate and has a comfortable hand cuff. It is close to accurate. I would say 'close to accurate' because when you take consecutive 2 or more readings and average it, it comes out to be the same as with the professional monitor that the doctor checks with. I took this as a gift for my father-in-law and mother-in law and they are very happy with the product. This helps them to regularly monitor their blood pressure without the hassle of taking a doctor's appointment for it and visiting the doctor.

Expresiveness and impeccable technique

Keith Jarret pulls off an admirable interpretation of an extremely beautiful and difficult work. Shostakovich's Preludes and Fugues were inspired by Bach's Wohltemperierte Klavier. Like the latter work, they are meant as an expansion of existing modes of musical expression and in this sense are the great Soviet composer's most lasting intellectual contribution.Jarreth gives a magical interpretation of each of these pieces. His playing is characterised by total contrapunctal transparency, unaffected nuance, and an expressiveness that ranges from tenderness to dramatic violence. Every note is different, and has its own voice and character. What never ceases to amaze me, is how Jarrett, who is not otherwise a specialist of the Russian repertoire, has managed to impress on his recording the unique, revolutionary, brazen, ballet-like bravura so characteristic of great Soviet pianists. I hope dearly, he will take on other Russian composers.

I kneel to Neil.

This is one Neil Young album that the majority of people will judge before they even hear it. Meaning, any anti-Bush, pro-USA, Neil fan will enjoy it. For the most part that's probably true. It is mostly track after track of ripping apart the Bush administration and war, yet also maintaining a sense of hope and love for the country. Lyrically that's what it is. Musically I find it's similar to his mid-90's album "Mirror Ball". It's rocking Neil for the most part, and appropriate for the topics. Not every song is a winner, but I really like the tracks "The Restless Consumer", "Let's Impeach The President", and "Lookin' For A Leader". Subtle? Not really, but I like it.

A Waste of Time and Money

There is more self promotion and self serving praise to Howard Block than there is substance. He is certainly getting by in the industry without posessing a grasp of technology. Why anyone would buy a book written by Howard is amazing to me. When you read his writings you wonder how this guy ever graduated High School, let alone how he became a self proclaimed expert of anything. Howard completely re-writes the Silverstream On Line help databases and his book is no more than a blatent copy of what Silverstream has already written. Don't buy this book, unless you are Howard Block's Aunt or Uncle and want to give him money for no reason.

This was another of Stephanie's great stories. The main character always seems to be an average girl who is a bit on the clutsy side. But it is always fun reading and enjoyable. This book is no different in that it fits with her style. Fun fun.

Maybe Her Second Book....

Troubling a sit is to review a book such as this, I feel that certain things must be said. The title portends one thing and the contents deliver quite another. That is not good news for the reader. But more of a problem is the premise this person has embraced. I found the plotting to be a bit dense and the characters as plastic as a 2-litre bottle of grocery store soda, not even Coca-Cola or Pepsi. The effort shows a desire and perhaps this writer will score a winner on her next go-round....

Buy it for the CD only

There is only one reason to buy this book--for the CD. I found the book to be poorly written, bland and superficial. Of course, I had just finished reading "Citizens of London.." by Lynne Olsen, which is one of the best books I have ever read, period. I kept thinking to myself when I read "World War II On the Air:..." that it was written for middle schoolers. Honestly, I'm glad I didn't pay too much it. So, if you want to listen to the voices of radio from WWII, buy this book, but read "The Murrow Boys" by Olsen or "Citizens of London" for the history.

Poor DVD transfer

The transfer to DVD is very poor (worse I have seen yet). There are so many artifacts in the video as well as black portions of the letter box that is can be quite distracting. The movie is a great movie but save the dough and by it on VHS or see in when it is on cable.

Terrible C.D.!

I hate having the same first name as Jennifer Lopez! Her music is awful! This C.D. is awful! Don't buy it; it is a waste of money!Also, I hate Jennifer Lopez as a person. She grew up poor, yet she never gives any aid to poor people. She doesn't care about anything but money.To find out more about why I hate Jennifer Lopez so much, go to http://www.jlodown.com/

Unusual

Although there aren't any main stream actors in the movie it does have an intriguing story line and surprising ending. Not an A list movie but certainly different and better than most of the other B type movies out there.

Great price for a good length cord

The title says it all -- a very fair price ($13 at the time I bought it) for a very good length cord. This is a better deal than you can find most places. It does everything you need it to, and although the gauge is relatively thin, it works fine, and I don't notice any sound quality loss or distortion at all. Pleased.

Dave Dudley Trucker Classics

NOT what I expected!!! Not the original Dave Dudley songs that I enjoyed. Must be later versions. Great old trucker songs, but the lyrics and music of even his songs are not the same as the originals. BIG LET DOWN!!! Look for earlier versions of this GREAT artist if you can find them!!

Old Zelda Rockz

Ok look the original Zelda was Awsome but all this new cartoon stuff is simply horrible. Before when i heard Zelda i thought of Link from "The Ocarana Of Time" but now i think of the True Gayness of the little Cartoonie Charachters. i am truely dissapointed at the way the game has evolved.

Not quite as good

Set one year after "Halloween 4", Jamie Lloyd (Danielle Harris) is in a children's psychiatric hospital, and she seems to have a psychic connection to her uncle Michael Myers. On hand is Dr. Sam Loomis (Donald Pleasance), who wants Jamie to reveal where Michael is. But for some reason Jamie can't speak, and Loomis wants to use her as bait to trap Myers. That sets the tone for the rest of the film, which isn't saying much: Myer's mask looks too different, routine unimaginative murders, no real scares, and the introduction of a subplot involving a mysterious man dressed in black that goes nowhere. The Myers house here (as in "Halloween 4") is completely different than in the first two films. Points taken off for the death of plucky Rachel (Ellie Cornell) early in the film. The ending is unsatisfactory, and doesn't really take us anywhere. Thank God this series was rescued nine years later with "Halloween H20".

I have heard of Brian Eno for years, but never bought any of his music. And I think I'm glad I never have. His music sounds contrived and strained. It didn't sound relaxing. There are other artists whose ambient music is superior.

Straight up, unfiltered, 100% pure blues

With little more than the steady stomp of his foot, the virtuosic hum of his guitar, and his famously murky voice, John Lee Hooker makes blues magic. These are wry, witty, beautifully simple songs, and if you don't find your foot tapping in time to the rhythm at least once, you haven't been paying attention.Considering these songs were recorded 50 years ago, the sound is remarkable pristine and pure, with the exception of the disc's liveliest tune, the pleasantly scratchy "Mad Man Blues," and "Hey Boogie." There's at least one odd hiccup-- track 8, "Lonely Boy Boogie", ends abruptly in mid-song-- but otherwise, this is a satisfying and soulful disc for those in need of a blues fix.

Hastily fabricated

Although the author claims to have high credentials, he presents very lousy descriptions of exercises, with complete disregard to grace or esthetics.As soon as you pass the well designed and colorful cover, you will be immersed in a collection of poorly sketched exercises. Each exercise is described in three or more steps, which provide no clue on the proper execution of exercise. Most of the exercise sketches are flawed and hint to the total lack of experience or exposure of the author to athletic performance.Although the book was first published in 1996, there were then reasonable level of technical skills and knowledge with publishing good illustrations that the author disregarded.

Fantasy? Fiction?

While I do believe the evidence is there that loans and aid to developing countries have served primarily to enrich corporations like Bechtel and Halliburton while hamstringing third world governments with horrifying debts, this book is not believable!I think that Perkins has channeled some alter-ego or something. I mean, come on, since when do big consultants recruit people through seducers who reveal a plan for empire, or put people with undergraduate degrees who "teach themselves" econometrics in charge of their economics forecasting? What makes a sex-obsessed young man in his early 20s psychologically unique? How important does this guy think he is, the "kindred spirit" to assasinated presidents?I wonder how hard the publishers checked any of these facts--this reads to me like Carlos Castenada or James Bond--a ridiculous, self-serving fantasy!Unfortunately for me, I share the author's political agenda. I wish he were on the other side!

Record Company Cash In

Let's face it, this an attempt to rip us off by releasing second-rate previously unreleased material alongside the classic AIC we all know. Music from the original albums and EP's: A. Sea of Sorrow Demo: A. Pre-Facelift Demos: F- (sounds like Guns N Roses). All Other Demos and Remixes: F. Positives: Picked the right songs to leave off the box from Facelift. Negatives: Didn't include the entire albums or EP's, Previously Unreleased material ( ). Conclusion: Get the original albums and be happy.

The Worst Musical In the World

After finishing "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" by Robert Louis Stevenson and loving it, I rented this musical hoping to get a good musical adaptation of the book. Once it started, I realized it had very little to do with the novel. After realizing it, I didn't care about that too much.The show opens with "Behind the Facade," which I liked a lot, but the rest of the show is HORRIBLE. David Hasselhoff plays the doctor and the madman in the show, and neither one is portrayed good. Former "Baywatch" star should never have been cast in a musical. Not only is his singing bad, but his acting is horrible. The music by Frank Wildhorn is dull and uninteresting, making the experience long and boring. I jumped for joy when it was over!All in all, this musical is horrible. Save yourself from a dull experience and don't watch it.

I give this movie 1 star for the fact that im a fan of Corey Feldman. His names on the cover of this garbage, yet hes in the actual movie for less then 2 minutes.

Hey can you please do one on Romney?

Hey can you please do one on Romney? Where the hell is a Romney movie, everyone says they need more information before they vote, but all I see is about Obama and little to none on Romney, like he fought the court to keep the libertarian off the ballot. You don't believe me, look it up, get informed. Even better how about a movie that talks about a two party system that has ran this country since the beginning and Americans can't see that neither one has done nothing for "Us" you know as in this movie "We The People"

The Quality isn't a good explanatory variable for the price

Actually I do think that this book is too expensive, it is not worth to buy it. It spends five chapter (167 pages), more than 60% of the book, to teach matrix algebra, reader can easy read the detail matrix algebra review from many econometric texts such as Greene and Johnston. I don't think this part is helpful. For the last three chapters, it just discuss the material about OLS, all of these can be easy found in some introductory econometric text. I don't think it is very useful for anyone to read this book before studying other econometic text.

i'm a mama papa coming for you

I love how this album keeps coming back into my life. I heard it for the first time in college (the first go-around, with some friends in Santa Cruz) and now it's blasting out of the trailer for Wes Anderson's latest flick.Rest assured there is way more to this one than the ubiquitous 'Ziggy'. One can even forget about that God-awful Bauhaus cover or Bowie's forays into jungle and 'industrial'. Like one reviewer put it so well, it flows seamlessly from track to track. And that production! For stereo geeks, there is nothing else quite like it (OK, well maybe Lou Reed's 'Transformer' which is really just Bowie with Lou on top)...that freeze-dried sound: the drums that pound like the inside of your head; the glam guitar that slides up your vertebrae like a tasty IPA from that pub 'ol Carrot Top is posed outside of on the cover....yeah yeah I could go on but I won't.

What can I say? Husband treats wife horribly and wants out of marriage. Husband cheats on wife. Wife cheats with pool boy. Pool boy cheats with teeny bobber friend. Wife gets psycho obsessive over pool boy and kidnaps teeny-bopper. Everyone lives unhappily ever after.Jan-Michael Vincent does his usual sub-standard acting job.Myndi Miller plays a fine sex starved psycho.Linnea Quiggly is her usual, vapid, stereo-typed, sexy teenager role.I hope Ken Abraham's acting got better the more jobs he got (if any).Let the buyer beware on this one.

Ey Up

This disc is a collection of Peel Session from perhaps one of the most the singular and unclassifiable talents ever to emerge from the UK. He is sadly missed.This collection contains material from 1973-1990 and clearly demonstrates the consistency of Coyne's work through the years. His gravelly voice singing his sometimes tender, sometimes uhinged songs , some of which here are almost totally improvised, is the key sound of this disc. Even a variety of backing musicians seems to have no real effect on the overall sound, other than to enhance Coyne's wonderful tunes.If you are already familiar with Kevin Coyne's work then you know that this is well worth owning, for the beginner this may be a little too much to take.

I get it, but it's not funny.

The only thing most liberals and conservatives can agree upon is that Coulter's random expostulations of hatred are worthless. She even admits in this so called documentary that the outrageous comments she makes are fueled by the mere motive of causing controversy. Okay, Ann, I GET that you like the attention and love to see people be shocked when you spew low class and close-minded words of hate, but IT'S NOT FUNNY.

I forgot I owned this

This has got to be the #2 best album of theirs, because it's what they used to be. It's their ORIGINAL sound before they went on to try and be punk. Very catchy songs and it is what they play more of live (or used to with Dave).My Recommendation:If you want a taste of the Sums at a cheap price, invest in this CD. Before you know it you will own the other 4 CDs.

My 16 yr old likes it

I bought this for my 16 yr old who is interested in game art. He is excited that he has already finished the first task in the book and is thinking about what he's going to do with the next few chapters.The only problem with the book is the CD that comes with it has the old version of the student 3D program on it and we couldn't get a registration key from the website for the older version. We ended up loading the newer version free from the webite, which is great, but some of the button references are different in the new program than how they are explained in the book. He's cool with it and has figured out how to find what he needs. He says the book is very informative and has helped him to understand the 3D art a lot better and he can already see in games how some of the things are put together.This book has been a good buy for us and a good investment in keeping our son interested in learning more about game art.

Tacky and Crass

That book was not written well at all! I found the language in this book to be crude and out of place! And I don't know anyone that would talk to thier boss as Sylvia does.......(whether or not if they are friends) There is nothing wrong about having sex or bad language in a book but I just didn't like her style. I love Brenda Jackson, Francis Ray and Zane so I guess maybe that is why I was not happy. Basically if you are looking for a book with some substance do not purchase this one or you will be mad.

SGA

Good show! I did not like the end episode but it was one of the best in the season. I don't see this show going on to much longer. They are already using themes from SG1 and the creators are writing as if it was another Dr. Daniel LtCol O'Neal Maj Sam Carter and Tealc (McKay, Shepherd, Teyla and Ronan). I for one am tried of the humans always struggling for everything. I say they should have a few episodes that show us on top. I have been following this show for around 10 years and while I miss my Stargate SG1 I don't want this show to ruin my memories of it. They already almost missed it up with the new leader of SG1 and the last two seasons that were out of touch with SG1' fan base. Anyway I still watch this show and will continue because I just love how the writers make this new world and the actors/director put it in reality.
