An excellent switch
This overall is a very nice video switching system. I did run into a couple problems at first, however, I have some knowledge of electronics. The first issue I ran into was a ground loop witch cause diagonal lines to run through the picture. This was caused by the fact that I had 3 power strips with one having the ground plug (3rd prong) broken off. After getting a single powerstrip that could handle all the devices, this problem cleared up. The second issue I ran into was the remote seemed slow to respond, this was due to shooting it through a glass door in the entertainment center. So relocating it resolved the issue.The only limitation (maybe) is that it only has 2 ethernet ports. It also has no standby setting, so its either on or off.It does a fantastic job at all resolutions up to 720, I didnt have anything that went higher to test it.

Not a crockpot cookbook
I searched for vegetarian crockpot cookbooks in the Amazon search bar. This book was fifth on the list and got the best reviews. It didn't occur to me that it might not be a slow cooker cookbook. It is not.

Nia for Chronic Paine
Nia for chronic pain, March 7, 2010The joy of Nia is its flexibility. I have fibromyalgia, RA and asthma. Nia is something I can do because it is flexible.....it encourages you to do things at your own pace. You do not need to try to 'keep up with everyone else". I took just one Nia class while visiting my sister and knew this would be good for me. I live in an area where there are no Nia classes. I have ordered some of the DVD's on line. Just try Nia! You will probably decide that this is the low impact, great range of motion exercise that your body needs.

The glove dispenser is made of heavy metal and includes keyhole mounting slots in addition to the magnet mounts. It holds well on the side of my tool box and the Costco gloves fit nicely inside.

Low quality kettle
I have long been a big fan of electric kettles. I recently decided to upgrade from a plastic Braun model when I become concerned about the plastic leaking into the water. I bought the Chef's Choice and knew I had made a mistake as soon as I unpacked it. It just feels, looks and operates like a cheap appliance--the on/off switch is flimsy plastic, the metal is thin, it just seems like piece of junk. I hope to return it and in the interim bought a Breville model that seems much better.

Having an agenda
The agenda of this film is perfectly clear: feminism and anti-clericalism. There is only one other such film in the Morse collection, and it too is a stinker. The plot in this case is highly complex and implausible. That's okay, but the female script writer should not have been quite so blatant with her propaganda. In short, this film is not worthy of the otherwise first class Morse series.

misleading images...
I, like the other reviewer, thought I was getting a set based on the description "Alpine Stowaway POTS" and the photo which shows multiple pots. It does appear to be of nice quality but for our occasional car camping I don't think I'd invest in this whole set.

I love it!!
I think this is one of the best workout tapes!! I saw results in less than a week (i did the work out 3x). And this is a short video, which i think is perfect. I have a young son and he sits on my bed and plays for a half hour while i work out. It's just long enough. It also works the entire body. This is good video.

Must Have for Catholic Libraries
This Comparative NT is a must have reference for any Catholic home library. Whether you are doing bible study, exegesis, or just personal reading, this is an outstanding collection of translations of the Catholic New Testament. This is the first time I have come across a collection of Catholic translations in one volume. It is a masterful work.

Excellent multi-function printer
Pros: Good quality printing & scanning. Sheet feeding and flatbed for copying or scaning. Black ink cartriges are easily refillable.Cons: Bottom feed which make paper filling, numbered forms and envelopes a chore. HP software is a little buggy as usual.Overall: An great choice at a great price. If HP could figure out how to top feed or (dare I pray) dual feed, this unit would be perfect.

Not bad, not bad at all
This is the Part 2 AA single of "Some Girls/Blowin' Me Up", which it's mostly the remixes of "Some Girls". Besides the radio edit, the most standout remix is the Mike Rizzo Club Mix, the Thick Dick Dub is the second. The least: the Orange Factory Radio Mix, it doesn't sounds so good, doesn't fit the song that well.But still, I give him 4 stars for the remixes. Watch for his next single "All Day Long I Dream About Sex", it's going to be pretty interesting.....

Each one is looking for something and this intriguing cat and mouse clash will lead us to a a puzzle game of double crossing, betrayal and well known of the thriller, but so finely articulated and meticulously well made that will become an increasing tension war between two outlaws.All the cast worked out toweringly. Since its immediate release has deservedly won a cult movie status.Watch it without hesitation.

Death & warm fuzzies just don't mix
To give this as a Christmas gift as one reviewer recommended is sick & morbid. While it may be a topic we need to deal with more openly, this approach sugar coats the ideas of loss, grief and pain. To love someone and watch them die, or face imminent death yourself is not a process that one can follow out of a book. It has to be lived - and no one can tell you how to do it. The author fails to honestly address the fears, and pains of death, instead telling us to "live our eulogies". Get real woman! Death & warm fuzzies just don't mix!

Good, but not the best!!!
I had this with my daughter, and it was very well made and did help, but I still felt like I was bending over to much to feed my baby. I gave it 4 stars because it could have been my fault with why it didnt work well for me. This time around I am using the best friend , the one that wraps around you so you can move and walk. A little more practical now that I have a toddler to run after!

Hype in the Rye
Growing up in Boarding school, reading Catcher in the Rye, whilst moping about the fields secretly smoking cigarettes and feeling quite misunderstood was a standard thing to do. I have always wanted to read this book, but never got round to it until now. May be I would have understood the trials and tribulations, of coming from a wealthy family and having the opportunity to be educated in style, back in the days, but now that I am older and more disillusioned, I can merely consider the protagonist as a victim of teenage angst. Caulfield; take a Prozac and grow up!A one book wonder

not good for chunky baby
We thought this was going to be the perfect swing for our 2 month old. It plugs in, has a VERY cute mobile, good music, and swings in 2 different directions. Well, once we got it home and put our baby in it (2 months and 16 lbs) it looked like it was going to tip over! No matter what direction we put it in, the swing just wobbled like crazy. Although he loved it and smiled the whole time he was in it, it just wasn't safe for our little chunky guy. If you have a small baby, it would be great...but not for us.

Perhaps it sticks too well?
Well, let's see.The good:This initially stuck to my dash quite well, although the dash is quite smooth so that helps. Things stick to it well. Phone doesn't slide. Does exactly what I'd hoped for... until... (see "the ugly" below)The bad.It feels kind of cheap. I should have known. (see "the ugly" below)THE UGLY.IT RUINS YOUR DASH. After a few months of use, I decided to clean my dash, which would ordinarily require temporarily removing the pad. Or so I thought. I noticed the pad seemed to be adhered to the dash. Hmmm. After trying to peel it up cleanly, the best I could do left behind a raised tough layer of what was once the shiny sticky surface of the pad, and a little fuzzy foam for extra frustration. It's as if I have a new sheet of enamel or plastic that's now bonded to my dash where this thing was. Definitely not what I was hoping to purchase.

If you want a ring cycle, Wagner is better
Be warned, you will get the dreaded three red light ring cycle, it's just a matter of when.In our case, it was the day we brought it home. In short this piece of garbage didn't even work properly for one moment. Maybe the QC department was smoking something, I don't know. I do know that until Quality Control becomes a reality, you are advised to not go near an Xbox 360.BTW, we have an Xbox, a PS2 and a Wii. They all work.

Disappointed
Was drawn to this movie because of the all-star cast, but the story line and lack of integration between the characters, not to mention the extremely slow pace of the dialogue, all left me feeling as if the movie was lacking. Only watched the film in its entirety in the hopes that it would get better, but it did not.

Just a poor quality product
I've owned this for about a year. Took good care of it, followed instructions, and didn't use it very frequently - no more than once every two weeks tops. Now the battery no longer holds any kind of charge - when it's turned on it emits a wimpery, sad little sound and has absolutely no suction. I did not purchase a cheapo model, I spent $40 on this and I expected it to last a lot longer and perform a lot better. I'd steer clear of this model.

Good Gore!
Well, I just finished watching Automation Transfusion and I can honestly say that I was entertained and satified. I agree with the other review about the acting and the plot, there both pretty lame. But really, what do you watch a zombie flick for anyway? The GORE right! And plenty of gore there is! The gore fx was done really well in this movie, so when you have good gore fx in a zombie movie, the plot and acting doesn't really matter does it? If you want good acting and a good plot also, I recommend George Romero's Dawn of the Dead, and Day of the Dead. If your just all about the gore, then Automation Transfusion should satisfy.

Unbelievably Awful
I did not believe that this movie could possibly be so bad until I saw it. I would have left when the Yeti came out except I was surrounded on either side. There is absolutely no chemistry between any of the characters-- they all act as though they are on the stage saying their lines by themselves. Brendan Frazier maintains one tone of voice throughout-- irritated and loud. Maria Bello as Evie is too "suave" with none of the endearing clumsiness of Rachel Weisz, and it looks as though she and Fraser can barely stand to be near each other much less be married. There is a hackneyed theme of their grown son being estranged from his parents, which is totally at odds with the second movie. It's kind of like whoever sat down to write this clunker looked for every cliche s/he could find so as to include it in the film. Stay home and rent the first two movies if you don't already have them. This one's a waste of time.

I've had continual problems getting the Autoprotect feature enabled. Norton's solution (response to error message 4002-519) doesn't fix the problem, and unless I want to spend over $20.00 to let them know their solution doesn't work, I'm out of luck. Terrible support design -- one shouldn't be penalized trying to get the software installed. In the end, how do I know it's working at all?

short lived
I had this coffe maker for a little over a year. Yes the coffee was good, but I wouldn't say it was the best ever. It's a loud machine. Is an absolute pain to clean & even at that you can't clean it that well as nothing removes except the grinder filter (metal cage) the filter basket & that's it. Just wiping down the grinder blades is usless. It takes up entirely too much room on the counter & must be left open to air dry thouroghly. After 6 months the plastic coffe basket broken. Then all of a sudden it started to over steam & produce half the amount of coffee vs. the amount of water added in, (6 cups of water yielded 3 cups of very strong coffee). I called & found that they have stopped making this model & all combo models as too many people are complaining about the maintenance & such. I am going back to my braun coffee maker with separate grinder. The coffee is better & the mornings aren't so distruptive. It's not that much more to grind seperately & it's easker to clean everything.

Think about the future
This drive kept me happy for four years. Yesterday, while the computer wasn't being used, I came home to find the blue screen of death; corrupt partition table. Attempted to repair it, only to reboot to the ominous "click click click" referenced at several places that offer to retrieve your data for $850 or so. I'm happy I make backups. (The drive can not be repaired - it's toast. Only physical repair will allow retrieval of the data.)Four years may seem like a long time, but catastrophic failures like this seem common with these drives at around this age point, and they make saving a few bucks on the front end less than worthwhile.This is the second Western Digital drive I've had fail on me. (The first one came installed in an IBM laptop.) Maybe I keep my computers too long. Maybe I should have drawn a conclusion from the first one. I've certainly drawn it now.

No issue with seller. It should be noted that one will not be able to print a vivid picture on the cling. If one wants that, it's best to print the graphic one a piece of thin white paper and somehow stick that paper on the non-sticky end of the sheet for placement on one's surface.

I'll probably never build a model of the Alliance, but I've always been interested in submarine technology. This volume has completely satisfied my desire for detail! Page after page after page of labelled isometrics of telemotor steering systems, Kingston valves, periscope optics, and other goodies. Wow! And for the modeller who *will* be building the Alliance, there are lots of pages of photographs of her and her sister ships in their various incarnations. Truly a cool book!

Don't try other hustle DVDs - this is the one!
Honestly, when I first thought about Hustle, I thought it was an old out-dated dance that no one did anymore. Then I saw some dancers actually do the hustle and it looked like so much fun. I bought 3 or 4 DVDs on Hustle and Shawn's was one of them. It was the only DVD that put things into the beginners perspective and broke down each step for someone like me who doesn't understand some of the basic steps of dancing. I usually only had to review things once and he provided plenty of time for me to practice which I surely needed! I recommend this to any person looking to dance the hustle. You've found the right DVD!

Did not fit my Emerson three-bolt mount
Tried hard to make it work. The adapter was too small for the three-bolt mount used by my old Emerson disposal. When I finally got it in place, my new Waste King 2600 simply fell through the retaining ring. I had to return both the 2600 and the kit . . . with shipping charged to me.I needed the kit because I wanted to use my existing polished brass sink flange. Otherwise, I would have used the hardware supplied with the 2600, which looked as if it would work nicely.And, yes, I tried everything. I spoke with Waste King, viewed their videos and read their literature, so I'm confident I did what I was supposed to do. Problem was that the outside diameter of the part of the kit that mates with the existing three-bolt mount system was 82mm, while the outside diameter of my old Emerson was 89mm. The kit piece simply isn't large enoughI went to Lowes, bought an Insinkerator, which is made by Emerson, and installed it with no problem.

Malfunctioned stock?
I ordered a 25 pack of these DVD+RWs and there seems to be a bad sector or something about 2/3 of the way through the DVD. I have tried to burn several different disks (including full erasing and reburning some of them multiple times), and any data past about the 3 GB mark (out of 4.7 GB) is corrupted and cannot be read. Needless to say, I was a little disappointed about this. The first 3 gigs works fine though...

Better than Burton...
Ironically, this animated film comes across as the most grown-up adult retelling of the Batman legend. It's filled with believable human moments and a view of the Batman from without and from within.This serviciable little vehicle fulfilled all my Batman desires far better than any of the live versions. It is full of qutable memorable moments:We see why people fear the Batman the moment he first dons the mask when alfred, who bathed him as a child... nah... that would be telling.We see the agony and the pain of Bruce's loss and hear the line... "It just doesn't hurt as much anymore..."We see the true insanity of the Joker, stripping away the clownish veneer forever...If all... heck, if any of the live films had been this good people would be lining up for Batman-X by now...

also known as...SPC part #67090
Although I ordered ACDelco part #45K0159 (for my 2001 Acura 3.2CL Type-S), I received an equally efficient replacement part...the SPC adjustable (rear upper) control arm assembly (part #67090). The SPC brand item is identical in appearance to what is shown in the picture for the ACDelco 45K0159 and I could not be more pleased. In comparison, the SPC brand item is $30 more expensive per control arm, so I saved myself $60 on the pair by purchasing the ACDelco brand! This is defintely a quality item!

I ordered this for my eight year-old granddaughter for Christmas. Her older brothers and sisters, 17-21, distracted her and made off with it. In short order they were joined by their parents and the fun began. The whole lot of them took turns trying to shoot the rocket over the house and eventually their 6'4" 250 lb father was declared the winner. Very entertaining, and obviously enjoyed by all ages.

Rip-off/deceiving, you get two movies only
Well, it is more deceiving than rip-off (can't beat the price even for two movies) but it is also very disappointing to see that one of the discs contains identical movies of the other.While both are labeled properly (inner circle had the right inscription) the movies are identical so this must be a manufacturing problem - the "first" disc had Matrix 1 on the first side and Matrix 2 on the other side while the second disc was identical to the first even though it was labeled correctly.I would suggest to stay away from this because you'll never know what you will end up with. Other comments say they got Animatrix and Matrix 3 twice.Also, there are only two discs so the data is recorded on both sides. This is a big minus for optical media. It stores more data on a physical disc but at a cost of fingerprints and scratches.I bought this brand new from Walmart and it already had tiny scratches.I'm going to return this and get a refund!

You may need to modify the table to get sturdy legs
Looked fine when I got the package. It was packed well and efficiently with no damage. But when I went to assemble the table I noticed that the bottom piece of the table top was mounted off center so that the notches to hold the table legs were too big or too little. When the notch is too little the top of the leg does not sit flush with the mounted board when screwed together. It would have wobbled eventually if I had not cut two of them larger.

Intense, but a little too earnest?
This story starts very well. Fire and mayhem. But doesn't develop all that well. I could forgive the slight lack of plot direction, if I believed more in the characters. But I find Blauner tries to hard to press all the right emotional buttons - and pushes them too hard. I find I can predict what agony he is going to pile on next. I'd believe in this writer more if here were only a little wit, lightness or humor just now and again. He's unrelentingly grim for most of the time.

worst investment
Paid $300.00 for these about 5 years ago. After about 2 years of light use the ear pad vinyl fell apart and the head bar rubber padding became very sticky, comes off on your fingers and gets on everything. The replacement ear pads don't fit into the frame well and come out easily. The overall quality of sound and durability was very disappointing. I found several over-the-ear clip ear phones for under $10.00 to be superior in every way, including comfort, quality stereo, and I can use these cheaper ear phones when I'm sweating/exercising: don't try that with the Bose headphones! The Bose headphones didn't really cancel ambient noise. I don't use them anymore.

This is the first time I have used an "electric" toothbrush in about 30 years. I had no idea what I was in for. I bought this on the recommendation of my dentist. Wow. It takes less time to clean my teeth than the old fashioned manual method and my teeth are much cleaner. What really amazes me is when I have it turned on and it is in my mouth, I can barely feel it. It is almost like brushing a feather up against my teeth. I totally recommend it!

CNN's "War in the Gulf" was not what I expected. I was hoping for an in-depth view on the aircraft and the pilots that participated in the Gulf War. The video contained little information about the aircraft or any exciting footage. Also, the running time claims to be 90 minutes, when in reality it was only 50 minutes long! If your an aircraft enthusiast, I would check out other videos because this one really didn't hold up.

keep your nails clipped
just as all other reviewers are saying its true that these discs are a nightmare to work with. yes granted some of these events are close to 4 hours (more than 3 but less than 4) with the exception of wrestlemania 20 (4 hours 33 minutes). a dual-layered dvd disc can hold up to 4 hours of "dvd-quality" video. so the whole 4 hour event should have been one side with artwork on the other (like the wwf wrestlemania 2000 dvd put out about 5 1/2 years ago). people are having playback problems because "both sides are dual-layered". wwe why would you do this. lets hope that the next set has artwork on top of the discs. this should'nt be a problem next time as all these other events (rr, iyh, kotr, 8ss, & 11ss) are 3 hours long. BTW: did you notice that when wwe began & wwf ended the product just completely down hill. horrible. goodbye wwf, & attitude era, you'll be dearly missed. seriously. wwe just plain sucks. long live wwf(world wrestling federation) and it's past legacy.

Excellent quality with the design to match
I bought this product (and the burp set) out of pure curiosity and I have to admit I was pleased to see it was beatiful and delicate item.The cotton is of excellent quality and it feels wonderful. Also, the packaging is great for sending the item as a gift.Definetely worth the money.

Rough Rider
Anyone with kids? This book will hold their attention for hours on end. My 3 year old son will sit for 2 hours per day enjoying the pictures in this book. I have read and re read this book to him time after time. He associates himself and his brothers with every picture in this book. It is simply amazing how it captures the true essence of true motorcross. I highly recommend this book for any child / parent. It will go a REAL LONG WAY. ENJOY

Completely disappointed.
Despite saying "high resolution" the pictures are very grainy and the contrast is awful. This is supposed to have the same resolution as the 8" Westinghouse frame, but the picture quality between the two doesn't even compare. After comparing both of them side by side, I'm really disappointed in this frame. I'll be returning it and getting another of the Westinghouse brand frames.

Amazing in so many ways. I love it!
Almost weightless, incredibly long battery life, super user friendly, I love that you can change text sizes, look up words, take notes, wikipedia stuff. When you go to your book, it goes right to where you left off. Its only drawback might be that there aren't more books on it, but that will soon change. If you read a book a month or more you should definitely get this.

Did not work for me
I have been using this product for three months but have noticed absolutely no thing! I follow the directions too but have seen no change at all! Also it tastes really bad and when I take it I feel I want to throw up. Don't waste your money on this.

Clancy has written some great books, this ain't one of them!
Let me start by saying that Clancy is by far my favorite author and has written some of the best modern American fiction in our time.Unfortunately, this book was the most disappointing of the lot. The build up tension was great, up until a certain point in the book, then it just got boring. The ending was entirely too predictable. I think it's time for Clancy to just end the Jack Ryan saga, revisit what made his first books so great, and start again with fresh new characters.Sorry Tom, you've just written far better books than this one.

Life changing
A truly great remote. This has changed my life. And my wife said we didn't need it; hah. I've started exercising and dieting. I buy my wife flowers every day.Seriously, very simple. I was able to configure it on my computer in 15 minutes with the set up program that came with it (via USB). I had settled in for a 2 hour setup. I use a 5.1 receiver, multidisk DVD player, TV with PIP that uses the tuner from a VCR, and set atop cable box. One simple push of a button and it turns the appropriate devices on and chooses which device controls volume, channel etc. The only negative is that now I need a better TV commensurate with the remote.

In search of the lost rip-off
So sad. I have been a fan of the band for over 30 years and this DVD is horrible. This is not a live concert but rather some very bad lip-sync over the studio version.If only this was a real concert performance. I only hope the band didn't authorize this release.

Find it downing? Find it depressing? Find it disheartening?
You should. Chicago is a musical that is not a happy sound of music kind of a show. It shows the underbelly of humanity-- how people get trampled, ignored and used all out of humanity. The main character is looking for fame, her lawyer is looking for money, her husband is just looking for love. The only one not to get what they want is the poor husband.When I see this film and musical it makes me re-evaluate what is imporatant. In a way this is a tragedy - with some catchy songs. If you understand what this film is trying to show you about yourself, society and our values you will appreciate it for what it is.

SONY RM-V701 Remote. Obsolete already
The remote does not support DVD players nor does it supports many of the features of the SONY Surround Sound Home Theater System. However, I could not change the sound and effects options. It did effectively operate my RCA VCR and 50% of the functions of my RCA TV. The function switches are extremely hard to see in good light and impossible in low "TV room" light. It was merely a 1 to 1 replacement for my existing RCA VCR control. Nothing More.

Hang on! You're in for a great ride!
I bought this film on a whim, not expecting it to be too frightening. Oh, my! It's SO suspenseful, and kept me on the edge until the last second! Great acting, especially by Leelee Sobieski and Diane Lane! I thought the plot was fantastic, the home setting is fabulous -- treat yourself to this film!

don't change your requirements without warning!
If the amount wasn't so trivial, I'd consider filing suit against you for services not delivered. I have streamed movies from Amazon before with no issue, but apparently Amazon has recently decided to cut MAC and Linux users out of using their videos and blaming it on a flash update. Clearly, my flash player is not the problem, since I have the most current version of Adobe Flash PLayer. Long story, short -- I'm a little insulted that I received an email asking me how I liked Forrest Gump when I wasn't able to watch it. Thanks for nothing.Sam Elias

Beautiful and thoughtful
A visually exquisite film with an interesting story, excellent performances, lush soundtrack and an authentic look which make for a very enjoyable and satisfying viewing experience. However, since it was filmed in Panavision, I do wish it was offered in a widescreen edition, which would be even better.

All hyped up for nothing...
I got this game as a gift for my sister and was extremely excited to play it with her (we are both huge fans of the show). We were extremely disappointed. A lot of the game has nothing to do with the show whatsoever. I think we could have probably come up with a better game ourselves. We actually scrapped the rules and made up our own game using the trivia cards. Unfortunately it wasn't much more fun. Unless someone is handing this game out for free, don't waste your time. Don't waste your money either!

Well-balanced.
Often I'm afraid that books of this nature will focus too much on the "mechanics" of writing. That it will lack soul and somehow detract from my own creativity or individuality. This book DOES NOT do that. It balances well between concrete guidelines for constructing plot, theme and character and abstract "artisitc" advice. The chapters are short and concise, wasting no time in delivering to you the information that you might be looking for. I highly recomend it.

Funny book! A page-turner!
I really enjoyed this book and think most women can relate to it. I would definitely read another book by this author.

Roomba worked pretty good for a couple weeks
The Roomba actually worked better than I thought it would. I have a combination of hard and carpeted floors.Even thought it cannot get everywhere, it does get to places you generally do not when vacuuming the old way.I would have been a happy user and given it a good rating, but unfortunatly after a couple weeks it failed. I got an error code stating that a wheel was stuck. The wheel was definately not stuck, but I was unable to get this warning/beep code to stop. Fortunatly I was within the 30 day return period.I would have considered getting it fixed, but considering the poor customer support that is suggested in the reviews, I decided to save myself the trouble of spending hours on the phone.My sense from the start was that it would not function very long, it's fairly cheaply made in my opinion. I did expect it to work longer than a couple weeks though.

Disappointing
It seemed interesting, but honestly it felt like this movie was just filming without a direction. You never really understand the purpose of some characters, scenes seem randomized, and the ending was like they wanted to make a shocking twist but in the end you just are thinking why did I watch this film. Honestly this film was a huge disappointment.

Trashy Book, Impossible Story, Written by a Man
It was a fast read. And it's a good thing, because otherwise I would not have given it the time of day. I picked it up expecting a good story and good literature because so many people rave about how great they think this book is, but I was very dissapointed. First of all, it is written in a way that can potentially convince you it's a possible story. It is diary-style and mentions T.V shows and other books, just like a real diary would. But the story and characters are just too impossible. Yes, life can be tough, but an unrellenting assault of bad fortune, as happens to Dolores just doesn't happen in real life. And, I know people that have lived through being raped and dealing with parents deaths without all the emotional damage that afflicts Dolores. The symbolism in this novel was also a joke. Every time a whale was mentioned I actually laughed out loud, could you get any more cliche?

Major contribution
"Basque Terrorism" got great reviews in the Spanish press. One notable exception was "El Pais" which devoteed nearly a full page to condemning it. (The paper was at the time a friendly conduit for the Gonzales government. During its time in power, 27 Basque activists were murdered by security agencies.)The strength of the book is in the details. Different aspects of the life and history of the Basque nation are brought together with strong, simple logic. It shows how hopes of freedom took the only path left open.

An enduring classic of the darker side of rock
I give this album 5 stars because I have owned it since it was first released, was absorbed by it from the first time I played it, and still am. Yes, this album is dark and brooding: it is also emotionally moving for people experiencing it for more than a quick rock fix. Other reviewers have knocked it for a lack of musicianship and poor vocals - perhaps it does lack there - but those things are of little significance if an album touches you. It creates a very heavy atmosphere and anyone listening to it for the first time needs to realise that it is not something to throw on in the background - you need to sit down, turn the lights off and open your mind. If you don't like that type of thing, then the album is not for you. After 24 years it still sends a shiver up my spine - that is the mark of a great album.

Real life isn't all happy or sad.
This book is a fabulous reading experience. The Civil War (or any war, for that matter) is so much more than who shot whom, when, and where. War CHANGES people, but there are some things that don't change even in the context of the most insurmountable odds, and to understand that is to "get" the point of this story. The ending stunned me to the extent that even days later I found myself forgetting that I hadn't read it and wanting to finish it to see how it turns out. Then I would remember - and my reaction was a bit like what Ada's might have been even during the time of the last scene in the book.

McKettrick's Choice
This book is wonderful! From the first page, you cannot put this story down. The characters have such distinct personalities. Each page is more exciting than the other. This story has every feeling that you can imagine: dominance,love, hate, suspense, fear, and lots of agitation. You will want to read this book all the way through without interruption.
