Groovy
This album is way cool. It's possibly the greatest rock disc ever created in the history of the universe. Everyone should worship Hole and believe everything they say. Courtney Love is also way cool. She has the deepest kind of respect for her fans and she never steals her material from other people. That's so cool. She sings songs about shallow, self aggrandizing, profiteering poseurs from the perspective of a shallow, self aggrandizing, profiteering poseur. That's also cool.

Enthralling
My favorite album yet from a great band. Heavy, dark and absolutely gripping from start to finish. A must-have for anyone interested in progressive metal.

Worked well until it started smoking.
I don't typically review items on Amazon, nor am I a jaded customer looking to hurt the company by bad mouthing their product that failed on me. However, the point remains that the product did fail.I've owned this product for approximately 1-2 years. It has worked flawlessly for that time period although it didn't exactly have a large workload.About a week ago I went to make a protein shake, simply mixing powder with milk. The blender slowed to a crawl and failed mix the solution at all. I lifted it out of the milk to see what was wrong only to be hit with an awful smell. Something within the handheld piece was smoking. Smelled as though maybe the motor or possibly a bushing of some sort, I didn't open to see.I've given it two stars. The product works great while it works. It's rather quiet too compared to others I've heard. Perhaps I simply had a bad one, but replacing every 1-2 years leads me to believe I should just find another one.

Not the product but the seller
I never received the correct item. I returned the item on December 15th, 2009 and still haven't recieved a refund or the proper item (it is now February 1st, 2010). I have contacted the seller several times and they keep telling me to wait. I would rather they get me the product I ordered or refund my money in a timely manner. What a joke! Considering contacting the BBB at this point. This is theft.

good book
My sister gave me a copy of this book to read as a recommendation and I'm glad I got to read it. It's a fun, fast paced book that is good for what it is. I am currently on the next book and enjoying that one so far as well.

Failed after 4 months.
Got this 4 months ago and it worked great until 2 weeks ago. Now the red lights on the front blink to show that it has a signal, but the base unit doesn't emit any signal. I was able to plug in the wired extender LED and that is working for now. I was initially very impressed by this product, but after seeing other one-star and two-star reviews on here where they've had the same problem, I'm now not so impressed.

Not a CD
This is not a CD. It is an "Enhanced CD" which means it wants to run a software program in order to be heard on your computer. After all the mess Sony caused with software 'enhanced' CDs, I am very upset with my purchase. I thought I was buying a music CD, not a software progam that plays music and does who knows what else to my computer. If I can find a way to send this back I will.I listened to the song on a regular radio, and its pretty good. If you only use a radio, then this will be fine for you.

Not perfect, but a solid greatest hits.
This is a very good compilation of Boston hits. Definitely worth buying for two reasons:1. Many of the great Boston hits from the first four albums...2. The three new songs of the incredible "Star Spangled Banner", the AWESOME "Higher Power" and the beautiful, yet extremely underrated "Tell Me".This album isn't without it's faults, however. "Livin' For You" represents the only "Walk On" song on this album, which is a crime. There should've been at least one more from the "Walk On" album (either "Walk On" or "Surrender To Me" or both). Also, the "Kalodner Edit" of "Higher Power" could've been edited out in favor of "Hitch A Ride".Buy this album in addition to all of the other albums. You do yourself a disservice if you only buy this one and expect to get all of the finest songs of the first 4 albums!

Jan Karon series book review
I'm not a reader but I read 13 Jan Karen books in a eight month period. Best books I have EVER read, Love them. I'm looking to buy every book she has written they are absolutely GREAT.As I read each book it was like I was litterly in the story myself and I felt every emotion, the joy, sadness, anticipation, excitement, fear, and love for every person she put into her book.I laughed, cried, got scared, was on the edge of my set and when the hurricane hit the Island Father Tim and Cynthia moved to I was so scared for her life and thanked God for sparing her life.I know it was just a book, but as I said it was like I was reading letters from my own family and emotions were flying.I suggest everyone read her books.Thank you Jan Karen for sharing your talent......

Kindle review
This is a great device. It took no time to get started. Takes only a few seconds to from the time you order until the book or magazine is on your device. The text is easy to read and adjustable fonts comes in handy. The only book I had problems with is a cookbook unlike the regular books which has links to the chapters the cookbook did not have links to the recipes. Other than that it is a great device and I would recommend it to everyone. Very easy to use.

Only 5 songs
When I read the description where it listed songs, I thought those were just examples. I didn't realize that was the entirety of the book. Five songs is far fewer than one would expect from a book of vocal selections from a musical, especially with a musical such as this one that has such a rich selection of songs to choose from.

Very Good Book!
Sugar was one of the best books I have read in a long time. It discussed several issues without being overwhelming. What I liked the most about the book was how the story came to a full circle at the end. Every character in Sugar was a piece to the same puzzle and the author did a very good job bringing them all together. Kuddos to Ms. McFadden!

Amazing Story
Wow. I had to read this book for school so when I first picked it up I wasn't really into it. After the first several chapters I did not really want to put the book down. The quality of this man's raw faith was so amazing and as I kept reading I found myself wanting what this guy had. I thought that the author's view of what heaven might be like was interesting. Granted, it's probably not all going to be true but I like that he put his ideas in there. All in all, this story is so beautiful and I greatly appreciate what Christians in China must go through. I would definitely buy this book again.

Horrid
No movie is more awful than this one, there is so much bad about this movie I don't even know where to start. The acting, absolutely horrible. The only thing worse than the script is the directing. There was absolutely nothing good about this movie and am now no longer a fan of any of the guys in it. I am so mad I wasted money on this.

Garbage
This product does exactly the opposite of what it is supposed to do: It is supposed to clean screens. Instead, it leaves heavy streaks that are nearly impossible to get rid of. Isn't that the definition of a bad product? The people giving this product positive reviews are either paid shills or blind. Stay away at all costs. You've been warned.

Fantasize about Magic, please
I finished the book, which is something. I read it on the high recommendations I read on this site, but now having read the book, and re-reading the reviews, I realise that the pleasure if Magic enthusiasts at seeing their subject-matter in print probably eclisped the awfulness of the book! OK, it was entertaining enough (hence 2 stars) - the writer keeps you in suspense for half the book - bravo, good showmanship. But, the PRESTIGE of his book, the big revelation, was the biggest let-down, cop-out and what I consider more dangerous, abuse of Science and insult to the Art of Illusion. Its reads like a third rate "Beam me up Scotty" copy. It seems the author is one of those who fell for the illusion of magic and actually believes it CAN happen, like for real. My goodness! I can only hope it was poetic license, and even then, it is hard to excuse him.

Garbage backed by a garbage company!
I ordered this player from Fingerhut and unfortunately didn't try to use it until the time to return it had expired. IT HAS NEVER WORKED FOR ME. The Power/Stand By light comes on and stays on and that is all it does. It will not play anything. I tried to call the Coby customer service and you never get through to anyone. From what else I've read even if you get through they will charge $31 to replace the player which is more than the $29.99 it sells for new at CVS. Don't buy it unless you want to be part of the class action lawsuit I'm contemplating filing against them.

Not only does this program hardly differ from the original program made in 1994, you cannot transfer the files for past programs leaving you to manually input the thousands of addresses wasting literally weeks of valuable time. And when you finally get all the files inputted, you discover that you can't transfer the data TO THE SAME PROGRAM ON THE SAME OPERATING SYSTEM. Seriously, the backup for the program doesn't even work. Do not waste money on this program.

It works, really!
I wasn't really sure when I ordered this if it was going to actually help me identify overhead UFO's, but by gosh, it does the trick. You see, I'm a taxi driver and as I drive people around I sometimes get these odd feelings, and I wasn't sure if it was that my passengers were creeping me out, or if some other sinister force was at work. I installed this on my dashboard, and as we approached EPCOT (A Disney theme park) this thing started to go off like crazy! Yes, the "Spaceship Earth" as they call it at EPCOT is in fact a real UFO. As a nation, we have been led to believe that Disney is all about make-believe and fairy tales, but I tell you folks, WATCH OUT! I can't wait to take this with me when my family and I head down to area 51 this summer. Any other ideas of places I should check out?

Unbelievable & Rediculous
This book was so boring. I kept reading, waiting for something to happen. What did happen was not believable and most of the time, stupid. I was disappointed in the story. Little's book have a common thread running through them and this one just hit a snag. Big book, little content, less imagination. Don't waste your time unless you just want to be able to say you've read all his books.

No end in sight.
One of the best 'page turners' I've read. The author has you immersed in the story before you know it. The story line is good, the plot is believable (for the most part), and the action is non-stop. However, you're left with an ending that is inadequate, at best. I don't understand why someone would go to such lengths to develop a plot, and then leave the reader wondering 'what happened ?'.

Book about Wounded Knee
Went to the site this fall and have read "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee" many years ago. Interesting read! An article in the local paper stated this book was behind the creation of the museum which recently burned due to an electrical fire. We did notsee it, but did travel to the site. Very moving.

Activation and State Download Problematic
This will be my last year in TurboTax. Along with the [C-dilla] and activiation issues (covered in other reviews), the download and purchase process for the state return was difficult because of the way the software connected and the information given by the TT servers. Instead of just saying "the servers are busy" the program locked up my computer and froze my connection to the internet each time it failed.I am done with intuit.ants to steal software, who cares about the protection scheme? Use it for a few days to do your taxes and delete it when you're done.

A disappointment
This knife has a nice feel to it and is easy to use, good weight distribution, and great grip.Honestly, this knife was dull after a week and the blade looked beaten. All it cut was onions and tomatoes that week and the weak performance came as a surprise. Although it does have a nice feel to it, I will not buy any more knives from JA Henckels but have switched to the slightly more expensive but noticeably cleaner-cutting R.H. Forschner by Victorinox.Personally, I do not always trust neg. reviews but my advice is to purchase this knife with a return option and then try it out for yourself. I assume if you invest time and patience into sharpening it may be worth it but it went dull to quickly for me to have faith in the brand.

Waste of money
We bought 3 pair of these for our Bichon Frise pups to wear when we take them for their nightly walk. They are fine for snow, but not for wet, dirty pavement. Within a week of walking on the pavement every night there were holes in the toes where the fabric (including the lining) had worn through.I recycled the velcro strips from these boots as fasteners for 12 fleece boots that took about an hour to make. The fleece booties are intact after 3 weeks of daily walks.

Good value and sound
I picked these headphones up last month when I tired of adjusting my earbuds all the time. They are collapsible, lightweight and comfortable. The sound is good coming from my ipod. Folding them right so they fit in the hard case takes some practice, but no more crushed headphones! They may be old-school, but they work for me.

Great idea - poor sound quality
Sure, you gotta love Starz and the idea of a live cd from back in their heyday was attractive enough to get me to buy this. But, buyer beware!What we have here are cuts from a handful of different concerts (the band gets introduced a few times) and the quality of the recordings vary quite a bit. The good news is that the performances absolutely demonstrate the raw rock energy any Starz fan would want to experience, unfortunately the overall sound quality is really poor and pretty much kills my enthusiasm for this cd.Bottom line, there's nothing here that would make this my first choice whenever I'm in the mood to listen to some Starz - that'll still be Violation!

Sentimentality Aside/Cat Stevens
Cat Stevens, high school, girls and girls..that's what I think of when I remember his music from way back when. This new work is partly a return to where he left off. You can hear the instruments and lyrics as a continuation of the last few records he released in the late 70's. That on it's own would not be enough for me to spend the time writing this review. I lost him after Catch Bull at Four. This new one gives hints of those better records. He is a confident and well accomplished musician. I may not have been too impressed with his work for the last 25 years nor the statements attributed to him.One thing is for sure, the clean living has helped him keep the voice that I remember so well. No whiskey drinking, cigarette smoking to ruin those pipes. His voice is terrific and it's a pleasure to hear it once again. I can't imagine how he'd ever pull off a US tour but I tell you, I'm there if he does.

dripping water upside down dub
Just picked up this disc. As a dub fiend I was intrigued by the description on the cover of the cd."CD1 reverses the dimensions of dub by submerging the rythms and allowing his static 'n' hiss to take the lead... The spectral dub emanating from Pole is a giant leap forward for reggae's impurists." -MixmagI guess that and have heard Pole's remix of Fauna Flash's "Tel Aviv" track on Compost 100, I like Fauna Flash a lot, gave me the ok to pick up this disc. At first I was like what did I buy? After a while it became very medative, and now I dig it. It is a bit out there but I recommend it. It sounds like a soundtrack to a futuristic abstract space thriller with an elusive plot. If you like this try to get Koss on the fledgling sound of speed label. I dont know how available that one is, I picked it up in Tokyo last spring.Have Fun and Space Out in a serious way!

Definitely good, not groundbreaking
This is a great cd, there's no doubt about it. Is it really better than OK Computer by Radiohead? I doubt it. Although the cd really is very nicely done, there is one blatantly obvious problem: all the songs begin to blend into one another. These songs end up sounding so similar after a while, it's ridiculous. This is mostly due to the limited vocal range of Alex Turner, the lead singer. However, many of the songs on here are superb. There are many stand-outs on this album, and it is excrutiatingly obvious why this band is so popular after just one listen. While this is definitely not a bad album, it does have it's flaws. Arctic Monkeys show a lot of potential here, and in one or two albums, it all might break free. Be on the look-out.

Really Good Read and Thought Provoking
It's been a long time since I read something late into the night, as I'm usually too tired with a 2 year old and a 3 month old baby to spend much time reading at all. This book was very inspiring, though, and made me think about a lot of things. It's also written in a very entertaining, casual style and keeps you hooked. It is obvious that the book comes straight from her heart. I hope that women who are inspired by the on-screen Teri will read this and be moved to care for the neglected parts of their own lives. Many blessings, Teri!

This doesn't grow on you.
I read this novel when it was first published and I remember liking it. I bought the next two books and I don't ever remember finishing them. I went back to this book and reread it after many years wondering why I never finished the trilogy. Now I remember.The justification for the actions of the characters in this book is awful. It does not matter what crime you commit as long as we can all get along in the end. What claptrap. I remember reading this as a teenager and thinking it was ok but know as an adult I recognize the poor plot structure involved in this book.Me. I would have killed Garn publicly whipped Matrian (sp) and then sent her to a nunnery for the rest of her days. Give me a break. This was a good idea gone bad.

Friend of the band
Argueably the sound that would become grunge was born not in Seattle but in Louisville, KY by Squirrel Bait. This band was once quoted as Bob Mould's favorite in Rolling Stone. The raw energy is unsurpassed in any album I've ever heard. This band was the NEW ROCK.I knew these guys well and helped setup shows (once with Husker Du). That aside the album rocks. One band member went on to Slint, one to Love Jones, one to Big Wheel, and two formed Bastro. The creativity found in this album (which includes the first self-entitled album) is extended by Slint and Bastro.

Power to The Peechees
The now defunct Peechees are what you'd get if threw Iggy Pop head-first into a blender with The Germs, sprinkled with rebellious ambition, and then pureed for 30 seconds. "Do The Math", The Peechees best album, is everything that scroungy-pop-punk-trash was invented for. It's a fun ride that'll have you whistlin' and doing a jig long after the CD stops. The Peechees may not be the most innovative band in the world, but they certainly can mess your hair up a little.

Durable, yet lightweight
I really like this flash drive. I remember when SanDisk released there "titanium" series, which purports to be able to be crushed by a large significant amount of weight. I even remember even seeing a video on Cnet, when they took a car, and drove over the drive and it still works.Since then, flash drives have become significantly smaller, and in suit, SanDisk has released an even smaller flash drive in the titanium series. This means that with technology, the drive becomes smaller, and with SanDisk encasing it in Titanium steel --you still get that durability.I love this thing and if you are looking for a flash drive reliable both logically and physically, I'd go with this one.

Had potential
Yes, there are a lot of movies listed here. The most helpful thing is the re-titlings. However, I have gone through my copy several times, and I have watched well over 600 horror, scifi, and fantasy films and shows, and I found this book riddled with mistakes. The author misspells names of actors, lists the wrong actors, and in some instances, has problems with genders in movies, i.e. saying a woman was drilled in the head when it was a man, etc. And leaving a review of Transformers the Movie out of his book is unforgivable. Maybe it will be in the reprints.

Pay no attention to the London listener's review below mine. No, this CD is not the Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper" or "Abbey Road." But, Yes! - It is an excellent CD filled with great Ringo moments, fun & toe-tapping songs and some of the best pop music in the history of recorded music. If you love Ringo, you should already have this CD (although I would suggest the US release, and NOT the expensive import). If you don't already have this album, then what are waiting for?

Seems like a good product, but we just got it. The bars are solid metal instead of hollow, the connectors sturdy, and the material nice and thick. The only problem? The dimensions of the Small are listed on the site as 21x17 but the product is actually 19x15. It also doesn't mention the weight limit here, but the small is only good for dogs up to 15 pounds. We have a miniature Schnauzer, who I usually have to buy "small" things for, but the small size here is really for small lap dogs.

Italian Pyschedelica At Its Best
This recording will take you back to the magical summer of incense and peppermints in no time at all. The early version of Le Orme -- five members, instead of three -- present the sweet sounds of the "Summer of Love" -- Italian Style. This version of Le Orme reminds me more of Traffic instead of ELP.Le Orme are masters at using their instruments and vocals to absolute perfection. Just listen to the second track of this CD, "Ad Gloriam," where Le Orme uses instruments and background vocals to deliver a sweet, relaxing musical piece.This CD is excellent. The music is fantastic and the sound quality is terrific. This CD is a must, even if you do not understand Italian. Once you listen to this CD, you will get hooked on Le Orme music.I definitely recommend this CD.

any question about pregnancy? here is the answer
I am reviewing this book for my website - www.soloyoga.com - as it is a book I recommend for the yoga teacher training I conduct in Milano Italy. As yoga teachers we have also pregnant women in normal classes and have to take care of their condition with the do and do nots.The anatomical illustrations are very clear and what is especially helpful is how the author stresses the role of the partner, who is also active in the whole process. excellent the suggestions for labour and what happens after, I have given this book to more than one pregnant student and of course my own daughter mother of 3!

a major misstep
Having read Wallace's other material, I think it would be best if he stopped writing about Ashland completely. The characters in this book are just too simple to have any believability to them.

Old favorites appear again
As a purist and a lover of children's literature, I don't often endorse collections like this for many reasons others have listed. However, this collection brings together many fabulous books, including some that are currently unavailable in print today. To me, this book is worth the price because it includes The Cat Club by Esther Averill, which I used to check out for my little sister every other week from my elementary school library. If your child loves one of these stories, go buy the separate book... if it's available!

solitaire hand held game
What we don't like about this game is that the numbers on the screen are very small and not easy to see. Our vision is still quite good, so that is not a factor. We will keep it because hand held games are difficult to find in most stores, with all the high tech games available on phones, play stations,etc.

Beat up, Dirty Junk
The condition of this item would have warranted paying maybe $1 at a garage sale: it was dirty (would it have hurt to wipe it off?), scratched, had chewed up corners and numerous small holes, dings & dents. The "fully assembled" claim was totally false, but the previous owner was kind enough to leave the screws sticking out of the bases so that more scratches could be added to the patina (and causing one screw to arrive bent - had to be intentional). All in all, pure crap and an absolute rip off.

Columbia-Legacy commits an unpardonable sin
Columbia Legacy has taken one of its greatest treasures, Duke Ellington's "Such Sweet Thunder", and reissued only an alternate take for "Up and Down...", which will undoubtedly leave new listeners wondering just exactly what "famous quotation" referred to in the liner notes Clark Terry actually plays. For their benefit, it is "Lord, what fools these mortals be", and for the time being the phrase can only describe Columbia's engineers and quality control personnel. (It took them three tries to get the reissue of Miles Davis' "Miles Ahead" straight.)Duke would get five stars if the album consisted of nothing but alternate takes, but Columbia gets no stars for its sloppiness.

beautiful pair
I have been a fan of Emily Skinner and Alice Ripley since seeing them in "Side Show". They are two of theatre's greatest talents today, and this album is extraordinary. The songs and arrangements are great, and I listen to this album a lot!This CD has everything -- humor and drama -- it's great! Especially enjoyable is the "hidden track" at the end of the last song with "bootlegged" copies of Julie Andrews and Jennifer Holiday playing Daisy and Violet. Amazing and hilarious!If you enjoy this first CD, I would suggest picking up their second CD, "Unsuspecting Hearts" along with Emily Skinner's solo album. All three of these CDs are great interpretations of classic theatre songs. You won't be sorry to meet up with Alice Ripley and Emily Skinner!

Wonderful Learning Game
I have played this game with Kindergarten, first, and second grade students. They all loved it! It is not only a great learning game for decoding, but it also helps them learn about vocabulary they might not have known before. The younger students need someone who is older to be the person who flips the main deck, and then judges whether or not they have made a real word. Second graders could certainly use dictionary skills to look up a word in question. Ties are hard to judge, but I usually went with the payer with less pairs. I love this card game, and the students I have played it with just beg to play it again and again.

Powerful and Insightful
If you're wondering about how the war on terror is affecting US policy and human rights around the world - then you need to read this book. It is an interesting read that offers important, well thought out arguments, as well engaging stories and surprising statistics. The author of the book is the Executive Director of Amnesty International and his skill at telling engaging stories, which seem to be attributed to his many diverse experiences, is clearly evident in Tainted Legacy.

An Oldie But Goodie
This is an old black and white movie for Moms Mabley afficianados. It's a fun movie with lots of old stuff in it that is long gone but should not be forgotten. I heartily recommend it.

Product OK, manufacture not so good
Be aware when you purchase this, getting someone from isound to help you, should a problem arise is impossible. We were missing the base piece for the Zune and are unable to reach them by phone, no answer-voicemail full and no one will respond to e-mails.

Dissatisfied
This product is NOT what I expected. Unlike my old VHS cleaner/rewinder this one does not use a cleaning solution and does not clean the VHS tapes as well. My old Cleaner/Rewinder had a hole to put several drops of cleaning solution much like the head cleaners for VHS machines, it had what was referred to as cleaning heads which where felt and replaceable. This Machine has a plastic post that rests against the tape as it rewinds but does NOT clean very well. I made 3 attempts to clean 1 VHS tape with little accomplishment. I would NOT recommend this product to anyone as a tape CLEANER, as a REWINDER it works fine.

I Don't Understand All The Hype
I don't get the hype. I admit I am not a huge fan of the "gangster" genre but there are several things that are really just average about this game. First the graphics quality is quite below average. The gameplay to me (my opinion only) is quite boring. Yes you can go around a punch people and run them over with a car but after a while, its actually quite boring. Anyways I am sure many people will like this game but there are clearly much better games out there.

Mac had a problem ejecting this disc
Great music.FYI, my mac computer (iMac running Leopard, purchased Nov'07) had a real problem ejecting this cd. (I did successfully add the music to iTunes). There is some video file on the disc that confused the computer. I've imported over a thousand music cd's into this computer, this is the first one that had such a problem.I ended up needing to power off the mac, and then power back on while holding the eject button. CD popped out.Great music, though.

Heart warming and honest
I read this while pregnant w/our first baby and it was not only great reading at the time, but the lessons from it have sustained me through the trials of parenting a newborn. Much better than any of the "how to" books I've read on raising kids!!!

Fantastic! My 4th grade class loves it.
The book is adorable. Of course, I am biased, since my basset is in the book. I have taken a copy to the school where I teach. My 4th grade class has loved reading the book and looking at the many different breeds of dogs featured.

Too small and flimsy
The liners don't really fit well into the bottom of the pan. I have to tape the sides down so my cat doesn't pull the lining into the litter when she "digs" Also very thin, she always tears holes into the lining.

I once attempted to read this book. I got about fifty pages into the book before the talking dolphin got me so confused that I could not finish it.

Excellent, Comprehensive
This book is a quite excellent intermingling of the story of Mengele and his Twins with quotes and comments from converstaions with some of the Twins who were his subjects for medical experiments and torture. The text of the book tells a chronological account of the life of Mengele side by side with the lives of some of his victims. The book is moving and interesting. The quotes from the surviving twins are what made the book so excellent. I read it in one sitting because I couldn't put it down and even for a minute not know what happened next.

not at all as pictured
We received a completely different sort of screwdriver made with very cheap, hollow plastic handles. I'm not sure where the problem lies but evidently these folks have changed what they're selling without updating the listing. Bad.
