0	Terrible Phone...	I decided to switch from Sprint to AT&T;, specifically to get access to this phone. I was drawn to the small, thin size of the phone and the flashy blue color. Before I bought it, I read all the reviews and found that it was much better than the RAZR... or so I thought!I have had this phone for a little over a year! I hate it! I can barely hear people, as the sound is muffled through the phone. Noone can hear me when I use the bluetooth feature through my car. The front of the phone is already cracked just from normal use - I have not dropped it, although sometimes I want to out of frustration. In addition, the phone freezes from time to time and I cannot receive incoming calls. And probably the biggest issue is that I consistently get dropped calls! This happens even when I am speaking with another AT&T; network user. It is ridiculous. If I didn't have this contract for another 11 months, I would definitely switch!!!!	negative
1	Works Well	The Headset works well and is a comfortable fit. I thought it would be heavy on the ear, but its hardly noticible even when wearing for long periods of time. Occasionally static is heard on the other end, but its a rarity. Most people I talked to did not know I was using a headset. The boom mic does a good job of canceling out background noise so the other end only hears what you are saying.	positive
0	I knew in the first 5 minutes I was not going to like this one.....It was not for me!	I knew in the first 5 minutes I was not going to like this one.....It was not for me! Slow, depressing and not worth my two hours.	negative
0	NOT VERY GOOD IF ACCURACY IS IMPORTANT	The machine was very well packed and easy to assemble right out of the box. It lacks a spindle lock. The chuck was a little out of round. When you chuck a bit and turn it on, the bit runs fairly true with the quill fully retracted, but when extended about half way or more it begins to wobble. When fully extended I measured a full 1/16" of wobble in all directions. You can turn it off and extend the quill and move it that same amount by hand. The spindle and quill must have some pretty sloppy tolerances. I will be returning this press.	negative
0	Does not work for a Genie....	I am sure it would work great, but it is just not comparable with our Genie garage door opener. it is a newer garage opener (purchased in 2009) but the opener did not work.	negative
1	This is the work of absolute geniuses	I would say this belongs to the genre of alternative electronic pop...the first time you hear the album a couple of tracks stand out (their hits, "Last Days Inc", "Dare" etc); but the more you listen to this album from scratch, the more you get impressed with it.I've never had so much fun listening to quirky music. This album may not be for all, but if you're interested in listening to different music and not your regular "Waiting for Tonight", grab this.Two thumbs up, way up!	positive
1	An Underrated Classic	Finally! After years of wishful thinking, it's happened. I'm so glad that animated Alf has seen the light of day! Over the years I managed to find a few PAL videotapes which I transferred to NTSC, but having so many episodes finally available on DVD is great. As was mentioned, the Alf animated series ranks up there with other modern classics. I've never understood why it didn't develop more of a following among animation fans, maybe these two releases will change that. Even folks who aren't fans of the 'flesh and fur' Alf owe it to themselves to check out the animated series. It is quite different from the primetime TV show, it has much more of an edge...very bizarre at times. The writing is excellent, as is the voice characterization. Awesome stuff all around, highly recommended!	positive
0	Maybe I got a lemon...	After reading all of these rave reviews I tried out this booster, and I couldn't be more disappointed. Maybe I just got a lemon, but it is SO unsturdy! It wiggles from side to side and just doesn't feel safe to me at all. The seat part is fine without the back, but obviously I need to use the back for a little while. Definitely not worth saving a few dollars.	negative
0	Warning - recording level may be too low to be usable	I seldom play at higher levels than 60 in my preamp, and this volume really risks my ears. At this volume setting, howvwer, this SACD was mostly barely audible. Kashchei's wild dance could somehow be heard, albeit very quietly. For the sound to open up, I had to turn the volume in my 5x200W system some 30 db higher (i.e., some 1000 more average power!). The same problem occurred in the CD layer, SACD stereo and SACD multichannel.It might be that the copy I had (and returned :-) was uniquely defective, but I thought I'd better rate the sound at 1-star as a warning to others that this SACD might be unusable in many systems.	negative
0	Fast Cooker	I received the Rival as a gift. This slow cooker is anything but slow. On the low setting, a 3 lb pot roast was over done in less than 2 hours. Instead of slow cooking you are slow boiling. I ruined a few meals with this crock pot and now I am looking to buy a new one.	negative
0	Last King Book I Ever Purchase {or} Suckered Again!!	I can't believe I fell for it...AGAIN!!King keeps getting my money and I keep feeling like an idiot for reading anything he writes since Bag of Bones (and I wasn't thrilled with that).This latest pathetic attempt was produced obviously to meet some contractual agreement (500 pages!-- a coincidence? I don't think so).When Mr. King was at his best a decade ago there was no one who could touch his skill and originality. Everything he's written since has about the originality of a fried egg sandwich. All of these stories in "E.E." have been done to death, by King and others.I've given up hope!Save your money!	negative
0	Very Unapealing	This book seems to okay irrational behavior and embracessomeone to not face their mistakes or upsets but instead have somekooky way to try to make everything seem fine. You can not go back and undo things that you have done to people who have died and by going through with that wedding Hannah really shows no responsibility for the situation she created. It makes me ponder whether the author just had a bad idea for a book or if indeed she shares this lack of responsibility for situations. I advise people not read this for it instills the wrong values in people and leads people to believe that they can just make everything ok again.	negative
0	YIKES! Is this guy really a lawyer?	What a bunch of trite nonsense. Save yourself the (the price) and watch the OReilly factor or listen to Rush Limbaugh if you only have a radio. They both have more depth. (...) My bird loves it though.	negative
1	Entertaining	Is this a first time novelist you could never tell. This novel was well written and put together. Can't wait for her next one. CHEERS to Sungee	positive
1	Great CD!	Excellent music that carries a fantasic sense of Place. To my knowledge, Kyle Thompson is the only musician ever to record Civil War-era music ON LOCATION at different battlefields. Thompson is a talented musician and the fact that he had been diagnosed with Lou Gherig's disease by the time of the recording (something I found out after hearing the CD) just made it that much more poignant. The music on the CD is a balanced mix of lighter and darker music. The joy and humor come through in the upbeat songs while the tragedy and sadness of the War comes through the solemn pieces in a way that more glib, nauseously cheery musicians would never be able to communicate.	positive
1	Awesome product - smooth skin	I love this set. It is a good value for all the products included. This makes my skin so smooth, but doesn't leave it oily.	positive
1	Don't listen to the guy from Anchor Bay!!	This title is not the best of Fulci releases but it has some great horror scenes and I highly recommend it. Why anyone would put to bad reviews, just I guess to hurt a company. Or maybe he is one of those internet assassins who go to newsgroups pumping looking like a consumer but actually working for a company. So the transfer is fine..GET A NEW DVD PLAYER!!	positive
0	Not so great...	I cringe every time I open it. Not the worst text I've ever encountered, but far far from the best. (It apparently offers some good stuff, though. If you manage to get through it.)	negative
0	not worth it	We had purchased this for our Grandfather who had just come home from the hospital. We thought this would make his life alittle easier. It didn't. You have to clap just right for it to work. Needless to say, we were disappointed and returned it.	negative
1	Great Series	Sesson 3 provides another wonderful roller coaster of drama that makes it easy watching. Great cast that allows us the audience to engage most easily in these Sci-fy stories	positive
0	Too loud!	This toy is in desperate need of a quieter setting. It took me a couple of days to put the batteries in it, and during that time my son loved playing with it. Once I installed the batteries and turned it on though, the sound the car made was so loud and startling that my 13M old son cried. He now plays with this much less, and never with the sounds on.	negative
0	omg this sucked	omg this sucked, i realize this description is not exactly helpful but i felt compelled to provide a counterpoint to all of the, not sure why, rave reviews on amazon. save your $..	negative
0	Boring! A SHAME!	Go for Sills, Baker, Galvany or any OTHER Maria except Gruberova and Sutherland and you'll be fine. Her curse at Elisabeth was sleepy instead of fiery. A SHAME! A showing off tweeting bird who sounds the same in EVERY role!!!!!!!!!!!!	negative
0	HORRIBLE!	We would of given this a zero if we had the choice. So it got one star from us. We watched this movie a couple of weeks ago and we still can't get over this trash. I also broke the disc in half. I wanted to crawl under a rock when the sex scenes came on and we were watching it with my 13yr. old son. WARNING WARNING! DO NOT BUY THIS MOVIE.	negative
0	Not as good	We bought this cartridge back in June and and it already dried out and is no longer functioning after a few hundred copies. Previous cartridges we purchased from office supply stores lasted for over a year and was good for a few thousand copies. I would rather pay a few dollars more and get a longer lasting cartridge.	negative
0	less than thrilled.	i shouldn't knock the exterior finish because i purchased a refurbished unit. but shouldn't a refurbished piece be better than new? they've had two chances to get it right.well, maybe next time.the baking cycle is useless. no matter what setting you set for the crust you wind up with moist toast. i've learned to remove the loaf before the bake cycle and finish the bread in my oven.this appliance isn't a breadmaker but an expensive mixing bowl. a dented and disfigured one at that.	negative
1	Perfect stand, I wish it would be a littler higher though	It work perfectly well with my Meteor mic, the only thing that I dislike is that it's too short. 5 inches higher would be perfect for me.	positive
1	Shred It Up!!!	I bought this for my wife, as she is always looking for new workout DVDs and she LOVES it. She said it is brutal, but it is good!	positive
0	Yuck!	I love Boba, but when I recieved this product- one of the bags the seal was broken and the pearls were desintegrated. When I opened the other bag these also fell apart. The color and texture were not what I had recieved before when I mail ordered from another company. (Can't find them now.)Since I paid alot to mail them, I just took it as a loss. Not worth the time and trouble to mail back. I would not recommend this stuff.	negative
1	These razors are like "safety scissors" for shaving	I have tried to switch to less expensive brands. But, it feels like trying to shave with the edge of a Rambo knife compared to using a Venus. They are a bit pricey, but I seldom ever get razor-burn and almost never cut myself. It's worth it.	positive
0	have to be older than 10 to use this toy	The toy is a good idea, but it needs to be more user friendly, instructions are hard to follow, even for adults,maybe not quite so much activities at one time, could simplify some for younger players.	negative
0	not as bad as boodeyman but it couldve been way better	i didnt liek a couple things in this movie like the ending and how they changed the storyline i liekd it better in the original storyline then this 1 and when the girl died and was like all happy and went away i was kinda disappointed. the movie was good in the beginning and middle and the end lost it i thought. they should have waited a little while longer to remake this to this movie was made in 1979-80 and the other remakes that have came out lately were from the early 70's liek the hills have eyes which is comn out soon, texaschainsaw massacre, amityville horror i think,and war of the worlds etc etc etc.	negative
1	This one is a "Supersucker"	Very efficicient in collecting dirt and even, other little particles from the carpet. Highly recommend it. It beats those rechargeable hand-held vacuum which will die on you. Wires are long enough but, an extension my be necessary for people who are too lazy to disconnect the plug to different outlets.	positive
0	This is the worst RJ book	Don't waste money on this cheese book. For you people who thought this book was the epitome of his writing, either you are 10 years old and don't understand the writing, or just another clueless freak who just wants to be different.	negative
1	Another Task Made Simple	I bought the Wonder Winder because I was tired of detangling my extension cord for each new project. I have now used it for over 18 months and I am impressed with its resilience and versatility. I can't even remember all the power cord nightmares of the past. The Wonder Winder performs so flawlessly and effortlessly that I hardly ever notice it. When I first received it, I was concerned with its light weight and plastic material, but this product was engineered with attention to detail befitting a first rate power tool. It's stronger than it looks and as an engineer I remain amazed by its minimalist approach to power cord retraction. The cord always re-coils like a cobra waiting to strike again. It came with two wall anchor pods allowing me to alternate the location of the Wonder Winder in different areas, as necessary. I have told all my friends about this product, and they also appreciate its design and functionality.	positive
0	Many Errors	The edition I bought had numerous errors. Several of the quizzes had multiple questions missing. There were answers, just no questions. In addition, many of the answers where just plain wrong. The advice in the book is not that bad, however this is the worst editing job I have ever seen.	negative
1	A marvelous fantasy	Michelle Sagara brings her series of four books on the Sundered Lands to a close with an unexpected ending. The complex relationship between the Lord of Empire and the Sarillorn of Elliath brings the conflict between the forces of Light and of Darkness to conclusion. The characters are rich and entrancing. The world and cultures Sagara creates sparks the imagination. The whole series of four books make for four wonderful weekends of fantasy reading!	positive
1	"New Jearsey?"	Who is this guy from "New Jearsey?" If his musical taste is half as bad as his spelling (keep in mind he can't even spell his home state), then Porno for Pyros' first album is a classic.Objectively speaking, the recording stands pretty tall on its own merits.	positive
1	Giggle Mask is an instant hit	A co-worker with a 6-year-old son recommended the Giggle Mask to me when I was searching for a present for a friend's 6-year-old. It was an excellent recommendation. The Giggle Mask was an instant hit (once the adults assembled the base, as recommended.) The assembly was easy and the fun was immediate. Best, it has a volume control, so even though it's a noise-based toy, it's manageable. There are numerous small parts and no place to store them, but add a couple of zipper-style plastic bags and the problem is resolved.	positive
1	My 9 month old loves it	William got this to replace his Learn & Groove Activity Station. You do need to watch the child while he plays I've seen William tip it over. It could have a sturder base.	positive
1	Better than you think	I guess I have a modern DVD player...the audio is not high def but it is Dolby enhanced. The picture is clear and the colors are rich, one of the many original virtues of the Twin Peaks show. Other features are trailers, chapter selection and other goodies.If you only want the pilot episode buy this since it is only otherwise available as part of the new $70.00 "Gold Box" edition that is now out.	positive
0	Doesn't work with all bands	I bought this based on Amazon's recommendation that it is frequently purchased with the watch I was buying. There are several types of bands as illustrated at [...] and it is very difficult to determine which type your new watch has until it is in your hands. This does not work with the Casio Men's WV300DA-7AC Waveceptor Solar Atomic Silver-Tone Watch that I purchased, so I just took my watch to a nearby jeweler and they sized it perfectly for $10. The pins in the watchband are very small and pop out several feet into the air, so be careful if you attempt to size your watch band and do it in a large uncluttered work area, like on a large dining table, and be sure you have the right tool for your band. I added this to my tool box, but I am skeptical that I will ever use it. I am happy there are still local jewelers to assist with watches you did not purchase from them.	negative
1	Decent coffee maker	For the price it brews a good cup of coffee. Full of programmable bells and whistles for the technically inclined. Only rough spot is in filling as the sweet spot for pouring in the water is small. Stands fairly high so you need an open space to set it up.	positive
1	Wonderful	Kids love it, wouldn't change a thing about it. Cute, but also educational, with an engaging story line and format.	positive
1	Nostalgic Movie - Classic Actors	Jason Robards and Julie Harris due an excellent job portraying two lonely people at Christmas. Now this is acting at it's best.	positive
0	Terrible!	I read so many reviews for this product and all of them said this was great, but really it's not good at all! It is so complicated to use and also when you connect it to your TV, the videos have terrible quality. Also-I was disappointed to buy it for ( dollars at COMP USA and find that it didn't even come with the camera! The man at the register said I could by it separately for no more then (...) dollars(plus another (...)dollars). Also- it didn't work on my computer because it wasn't compatible- you must have over Windows 98-SE. That was more my fault.... lol.. If you are thinking it is cool for the video camera (like I thought it was) just go for another camera because this one it really bad! For the MP3 player, just buy an I-Pod or something. And for the camera...it's acceptable, but you can buy one with the same quality of 1.3 MegaPixels for 100 dollars at Walgreens! :-D so Overall, this is a terrible product! By the way, I'm (...).	negative
0	A doggie is nothing if he don't have a bone...whatever	This is possibly the most annoying song ever made. WHO LET THE DOGS OUT? WHO? WHO? WHO?, what kind of lyrics are that? The dog noises these guys make are really annoying too. No wonder it was their only hit (why was it even a hit? who knows). All that matters now is that the Baha Men are gone terrorizing us and they are pretty much forgotten. Why waste money on a full album of this crap anyway? Just stay away...	negative
0	Okay, but definetely for the homeowner	Bought it for my company. It's a great price, so if your doing home projects or if you're a serious DIY'er I'd recomend it. If your a pro, I'd either rent a true industrial grade laser, or step up to something like a Spectra, a Dewalt, or a Topcon... I think they'll be much more durable -- especially around the jobsite. Just my 2-cents	negative
0	Should have passed this one by	I bought this book while visiting the Yorkshire Dales, after lapping up the James Herriot series years earlier. I was sooo excited to find the book and had romantic visions of reading about the real James Herriot while visiting his homeland.Ohhhhh, how I wish I had picked up the book, soaked up the photos, and put the book right back on the shelf.A classic case of raining on my parade; bursting my bubble; toss out ANY fitting cliche. It shattered all my illusions about James Harriet's life, experiences, and loved ones. If you are a sentimental fool like me and have read Herriot's books, pass this one byyyyy.	negative
0	goniometry	The goniometers will melt in a hot car. Also the arms are not stiff enough that when you move the range to measure it will not stay in place for have accurate reading, esp when trying to measure a stroke patient with increase tone and measure prom.	negative
0	Not so great.	The item was not working when I received it. However, the company was great with my return and answering emails. I would not recommend the item, however the customer service was A+.	negative
0	Not Very Good	To be short, I thought this book was TERRIBLE. It dragged on, didn't make much sense, and has a dreary theme. I really DO NOT recommend this to people who aren't into ancient Egypt.	negative
0	Not a remarkable read	This book based on the end times in Revelation disappointed me. Written on the level of a fifth grader as one reviewer observed, it has cardboard characters and lacks the qualities of good fiction.	negative
0	Quick Summary	Unfortunately, I've purchases three of these before. The first the light stopped working so I returned it. The second fell off while I was washing dishes and I could never get it back on because the connectors were plastic and and the threading got all messed up. I bought this last one and the light stopped working again after 6 months. Crap product. Third time's a charm. I'm buying something else.	negative
0	Movie is a joke!	I bought the movie to see the 3D visual effects. Although that part passed with flying colors, the movie content is foul-mouthed and full of nudity. A waste of my time and money.	negative
1	No need for a high chair!	No need for a highchair this is like a high chair without legs. I could adjust the seat setting to match my son's development. I still can't get over how easy it is to clean! I just throw the pad into the dishwasher. It's still in great shape!	positive
1	A Worthy Sequel	I was thoroughly satisfied with this well-written follow-up to River of Darkness. As in the first book, Airth reveals the villain halfway through, then the suspense begins! Well-developed characters and plot add to its appeal.	positive
0	Misleading!	As a fan of the Westworld movie I eagerly bought this, only to find that it barely has anythind to do with it. There is a look at Yul Bryner's film career which was interesting but mostly irrelevant to the title. There are two sections (which use the same footage) covering robots and robots in movies. The actual part covering the movie was so short that it passed in the blink of an eye. I really felt like I had picked something up from a market stall that had been knocked together in someone's back bedroom. I wouldn't touch this with a bargepole!	negative
1	Not bad for what it is...	MSRP is over $200.00, If I'd paid that I'd be upset. I paid around $50.00 and for that price it's well worth it. Found the error code and gave a brief description of the code which should point you in the correct direction. Cleared the code with no problem. Manufacture website gave a little more info on the DTC's. I purchased the USB cable to preform updates but none were available as of yet.	positive
0	Meh	I read a review saying that this cooled all heating problems for the Alienware 7700 laptop. Tis a lie, they must mean the 15" version cause it made my 17" 7700 heating problem worse. I put it on, and my computer instantly began to reheat. It was a waste.	negative
1	I can't believe it's finally among us!	When I got to know this new edition included the MTV Unplugged I clicked on the purchase now button inmediately. The packaging is excellent, very good edition with some really cool pics. Haven't pay a lot of attention to the Redux Ten yet but it sounds a little bit different. About the DVD, it's amazing, nice video quality and perfect sound quality. Amazing show, I don't know why it took so many years to release it.	positive
0	Horrible, does not work	So, I have many blackheads on my nose, I can press them and get the gunk out but they come back. I bought these strips hoping to solve my problem.The first thing I'd like to note is that the strips LOVE to stick to themselves. The first strip I opened stuck to itself immediately and wouldn't come part. The second strip went on fine, it got hard after 10-15 minutes and I peeled the strip off towards the bottom of my nose (like the instructions say to do.It got a few blackheads, but nothing worth paying for (maybe 4-5 blackheads came out). The rest were left unscathed. Also, the strip leaves your skin uncomfortably dry where it was.	negative
1	A wonderful book!	If you enjoy figure photography, are a fan of dance, or are an artist in search of interesting photo reference, then this book is a "must-buy", especially for the price. This collection of underwater photographs of ballet-dancers is breathtakingly beautiful and inventive, and provides rare glimpses of the human form in graceful motion, without the constraints of gravity. I never tire of this book!	positive
1	Best for the Price	There are less expensive diapers out there, but I found that Pampers and Huggies might be more money, but are the better diaper too. I also found that Baby Dry diapers were the least expensive of the diapers that work. I have a girl and they work great. I really don't even price check anymore. I just get these using amazon mom and subscribe and save and get them as cheap as I can. I lot easier shopping for diapers when you have your favorite, and these are definitely my favorite.Edit October 2012: I now have another baby girl. I decided to give luvs a try again, and like them this time around. I didn't like them with my first daughter. Not sure if my opinion changed or if luvs changed their diaper up. There is definitely a different feel than other brands, but after amazon mom ended I started shopping again and now I get luvs from sam's club.	positive
1	The Best Everclear	This is the CD, and Santa Monica the song, that made them famous, and rightly so. There is something eerie here, the pop-like texture, with the horror-stories that sound like real life. Weird juxtapostion. Also the smooth rocking guitar of Black Girl Friend, which taken together is almost naive in it's assertions. End to end a great CD.	positive
0	are they kidding ?	the reason this singer songwriter hasnt hit it big is because she can barely sing and her voice isnt nice to listen to----the songs are provocative and interesting--someone else should sing them ! and the music isnt bad--- but who could listen to this??- who would want to when u can hear birds or the drone of a refrigerator humming or nothing- sweet nothing----	negative
1	Worth the money and time	Great book, great web site. Don't be fooled by people saying helping people should be free. What is spent on these two items is less than what many people spend eating in junk food in a week. And what if it changes your life for the better on top of that. Take a chance as he says in his book "Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds." Albert Einstein	positive
0	LEWD AND WEIRD	horrible writing. every adult that reads her books can't stand it. these books are difficult to read with continuity and are un-enjoyable because of the strangeness about them. the main character is creepy and just plain weird. this book in particular has lewd writing such as 'put a pickle in his puss'. we had throw out the book because our kids' uncles, aunts, and grandparents all complained that the writing was too disgusting in several places. we all have no idea how this author got into publishing. aside from that, the kids are frightened by the characters. i would NOT recommend these books to anyone, especially children.	negative
1	ihome clock radio	This is exactly what my son wanted, the price was better than anywhere, daughter now wants one. The sound is really good!	positive
0	THE SWG DEV TEAM SHOULD BE FIRED	People DO NOT purchase this game or any other SOE releases. The SWG dev team must be held accountable for theyre sole ruination of the SWG game. All attempts by customers to seek support with SOE customer service has been negated. THIS IS AN AWFUL product and I suggest highly that anyone interested in playing a online game do not purchase A SOE release. Try playing WOW or Matrix Online instead.one of thousands disgruntled andangerd customersthat have left theSWG game. SOE is terrible.	negative
1	Christmas gift	My grand daughter loved this when she opened it for Christmas the smile on her face was so large I thought her face was going to split (happy dance!)	positive
1	Fun game	I bought this game for my 3 year old daughter. We have fun playing it. It was easy for her to figure out how to play it. She gets a little distressed though when the monkeys fall.	positive
1	Taunton's Complete Illustrated Guide to Turning	Excellent book covering many begining to intermediate aspects of turning. Good book for learning new techniques or technique review. Every turner should have (and use) this resource	positive
0	slow torture	We were shocked by the rave reviews of this movie -- especially the comparison on the video jacket to the "Full Monty". Perhaps we missed the humor (where was it?), but we found the story painful and slow. Too bad, because John Hurt is usually good at whatever he does... but when given a bad script and a worse supporting cast, what can he do? How can this be seen as a comedy?! Felt like a depressing waste of an evening. No love and lots of death (of brain cells) on Long Island.	negative
0	boring	great bed time book its so boring it put us all to sleep - not a cool as the hot dog or dont let the pigeon drive the bus.Those are the only 2 titles worth buying	negative
1	Very good and informative for newer fans	I read this book and could not put it down. I am younger so I do not know a lot about the earlier albums and this book provided that information nicely. I like how the author showed some of the inspirations and history of many of The Artist's songs. The book also had a lot of good recent interviews with people who used to work with The Artist and said where they were now. One more excellent feature was the two reference sections, reviews for every album and an exhausted discography. The only bad part was that the author strayed away from the topic of The Artist a few times with the history of Minnesota, segregation, and the record industry. It also would have been nice if the book was in chronological order. Overall it was a very good book for newer fans of The Artist.	positive
0	Great premise, terrible movie	I love Meg Ryan, and like Nicholas Cage, and wound up renting this movie in the hope of seeing a romantic, lush movie. The movie starts off slow - and then just gets slower. Cage is moody and somewhat one-dimensional, Ryan is great but not enough to carry the picture.I could have walked away with a good feeling overall if the "twist" at the ending hadn't been ridiculous and frustrating. Who wants to see a movie with an unhappy & depressing ending?Save your money - and your time. City of Angels made me wish for a prescription of Prozac.	negative
1	Very pleased.	I looked around for "the stand" because I'd seen it a number of times, but couldn't find it. I was pleased when I found it along with 2 other Stephen King movies I had never watched. I'm pleased with the delivery as well.	positive
0	Poorest of quality	I was very excited when I bought my Palm Z22. It had impressive-looking color graphics, a reasonable amount of memory, and was very competitively priced. Unfortunately, the quality of the device was abhorrent. The Z22 FREQUENTLY fails to turn on when the power button is pressed. This gets annoying really fast. The worst problem, though, is the hotsync computer hook up. I could not get my palm to link with my computer despite numerous attempts and calls to the palm help center. There was no way I back up my information to my computer or download any software for the Z22. I finally exchanged my Z22 to the store where I bought it only to get a replacement that had the identical problems to the one I replaced. This thing was a huge waste of time and money.	negative
1	Excellent Book for Classes and Self-study	I used this book for my statistic class. After thoroughly reading this book, I become quite familiar with the subject matter.1. The explanations in most parts are so clear and easy to understand. A few small sections are difficult, but they are not essential topics for this book. If you think the book is not intuitive, use Peter Kennedy's A Guide to Econometrics (5th edition) as complementary reading.2. You can find all the corresponding SAS programs on the Internet. Do the exercises with SAS, otherwise you will learn nothing. If you don't know SAS, read Delwiche and Slaughter's The Little SAS Book (3rd edition) or SAS Online Tutor for Base Programming.3. If you are not familiar with basic statistic concepts, read the appendices of the book first.4. The book is sufficient and easily understood for what it contains. If you want more and deeper information, use other books to complement it.	positive
1	Improbable characters that work	Who else but Elmore Leonard could come up with a phony priest and an ex-con standup comic as his hero and heroine? I'm guessing the Catholic Church left its marks on him in one way or another because he's had Catholic characters in other books, most notably TOUCH and BANDITS. I went to Catholic school, and the title PAGAN BABIES alone was enough to stir memories and draw me in. (And a tip of the hat to the person who thought to put a mission box on the cover. Perfect!) Leonard unfolds this story of scammers and scumbags with a deft hand, giving us a generous helping of his signature humor and bull's eye dialogue. No one writes like him, and thank God he's so prolific. The man is a national treasure.	positive
0	Surprisingly bad	Considering both the author and the subject matter, this was surprisingly bad.Jackson's election was the first election of a president by "the people" (the people bing white, male, and in some states, just property owners). How did this happen and what did it mean for the country - you won't find out here.And Jackson as president had a significant impact on how the federal government of the United States operated, from federalism (handling South Carolina's attempt to succeed), to the National Bank, to the proposed expansion of the conuntry.So how were each of these handled and what did it mean? Again, you won't find out much here. Yes Jackson made a toast to the preservation of the Union and yes that was important. But according to this book that was it.The book reads easily and is good up through the battle of New Orleans. But it doesn't tell you much about Jackson's impact on our government and country. Yet that is why he is so important.	negative

Well the big boy cot ain't getting it done either. If you want some good humor for your wife and kids purchase this baby and take it along, it will make for a great story. Otherwise, I wouldn't have another one, it's just cheap!	negative
0	Not very good	This stuff looks really nice right after it is applied but it doesn't have any durability whatsoever.

The product from Mother's is very thick in comparison and doesn't sling off while giving a much better shine.	negative

1	The Folds of Andre's Brain	Though I did not finish reading the entire book because just this morning my cat threw up all over it, I would recommend Codrescu's A Craving for Swan. It's a collection of his writings which once aired on NPR. He chooses topics--Transylvania, Louisiana, his son, whatever--and then expounds upon them--expository style--in his own, singular, funny, forthright, post-beatnik, Eastern-European/Nawlins vernacular style. What I like about Codrescu is not so much his writing ability (not intended as a slight, Mr. Andrei) as his longing for a more human existence in an increasingly nonhuman/computerish world. His storytelling talent as well as his critical eye regarding mass media and things plugged in are top-rate. To anyone who's ever read Exquisite Corpse or has seen the video of Codrescu's ride across America, this book is certainly worth it's weight in . . . cat vomit? No. Gold? No. Mardi Gras beads wrapped around a Draculian wooden cross? Yes.	positive
1	Very Happy.	I searched for awhile to find a high chair that suited our needs - portable, easy to clean, & space economical. The Fisher-Price Space Saver works for us very well. It easily attaches/detaches to any chair via 2 straps and is very secure. The cover & straps come off to be washed. Although they aren't cheap, I've even found quality replacement covers online. The chair is very adjustable and since it is convertible to a booster seat, I foresee us using it for many years. One comment about the tray - even though it is dishwasher safe, I have yet to find a dishwasher that it fits into very well, but maybe I've just had small dishwashers.	positive

Terrible Phone...

I decided to switch from Sprint to AT&T;, specifically to get access to this phone. I was drawn to the small, thin size of the phone and the flashy blue color. Before I bought it, I read all the reviews and found that it was much better than the RAZR... or so I thought!I have had this phone for a little over a year! I hate it! I can barely hear people, as the sound is muffled through the phone. Noone can hear me when I use the bluetooth feature through my car. The front of the phone is already cracked just from normal use - I have not dropped it, although sometimes I want to out of frustration. In addition, the phone freezes from time to time and I cannot receive incoming calls. And probably the biggest issue is that I consistently get dropped calls! This happens even when I am speaking with another AT&T; network user. It is ridiculous. If I didn't have this contract for another 11 months, I would definitely switch!!!!

Works Well

The Headset works well and is a comfortable fit. I thought it would be heavy on the ear, but its hardly noticible even when wearing for long periods of time. Occasionally static is heard on the other end, but its a rarity. Most people I talked to did not know I was using a headset. The boom mic does a good job of canceling out background noise so the other end only hears what you are saying.

NOT VERY GOOD IF ACCURACY IS IMPORTANT

The machine was very well packed and easy to assemble right out of the box. It lacks a spindle lock. The chuck was a little out of round. When you chuck a bit and turn it on, the bit runs fairly true with the quill fully retracted, but when extended about half way or more it begins to wobble. When fully extended I measured a full 1/16" of wobble in all directions. You can turn it off and extend the quill and move it that same amount by hand. The spindle and quill must have some pretty sloppy tolerances. I will be returning this press.

This is the work of absolute geniuses

I would say this belongs to the genre of alternative electronic pop...the first time you hear the album a couple of tracks stand out (their hits, "Last Days Inc", "Dare" etc); but the more you listen to this album from scratch, the more you get impressed with it.I've never had so much fun listening to quirky music. This album may not be for all, but if you're interested in listening to different music and not your regular "Waiting for Tonight", grab this.Two thumbs up, way up!

An Underrated Classic

Finally! After years of wishful thinking, it's happened. I'm so glad that animated Alf has seen the light of day! Over the years I managed to find a few PAL videotapes which I transferred to NTSC, but having so many episodes finally available on DVD is great. As was mentioned, the Alf animated series ranks up there with other modern classics. I've never understood why it didn't develop more of a following among animation fans, maybe these two releases will change that. Even folks who aren't fans of the 'flesh and fur' Alf owe it to themselves to check out the animated series. It is quite different from the primetime TV show, it has much more of an edge...very bizarre at times. The writing is excellent, as is the voice characterization. Awesome stuff all around, highly recommended!

After reading all of these rave reviews I tried out this booster, and I couldn't be more disappointed. Maybe I just got a lemon, but it is SO unsturdy! It wiggles from side to side and just doesn't feel safe to me at all. The seat part is fine without the back, but obviously I need to use the back for a little while. Definitely not worth saving a few dollars.

Warning - recording level may be too low to be usable

I seldom play at higher levels than 60 in my preamp, and this volume really risks my ears. At this volume setting, howvwer, this SACD was mostly barely audible. Kashchei's wild dance could somehow be heard, albeit very quietly. For the sound to open up, I had to turn the volume in my 5x200W system some 30 db higher (i.e., some 1000 more average power!). The same problem occurred in the CD layer, SACD stereo and SACD multichannel.It might be that the copy I had (and returned :-) was uniquely defective, but I thought I'd better rate the sound at 1-star as a warning to others that this SACD might be unusable in many systems.

Last King Book I Ever Purchase {or} Suckered Again!!

I can't believe I fell for it...AGAIN!!King keeps getting my money and I keep feeling like an idiot for reading anything he writes since Bag of Bones (and I wasn't thrilled with that).This latest pathetic attempt was produced obviously to meet some contractual agreement (500 pages!-- a coincidence? I don't think so).When Mr. King was at his best a decade ago there was no one who could touch his skill and originality. Everything he's written since has about the originality of a fried egg sandwich. All of these stories in "E.E." have been done to death, by King and others.I've given up hope!Save your money!

Very Unapealing

This book seems to okay irrational behavior and embracessomeone to not face their mistakes or upsets but instead have somekooky way to try to make everything seem fine. You can not go back and undo things that you have done to people who have died and by going through with that wedding Hannah really shows no responsibility for the situation she created. It makes me ponder whether the author just had a bad idea for a book or if indeed she shares this lack of responsibility for situations. I advise people not read this for it instills the wrong values in people and leads people to believe that they can just make everything ok again.

Great CD!

Excellent music that carries a fantasic sense of Place. To my knowledge, Kyle Thompson is the only musician ever to record Civil War-era music ON LOCATION at different battlefields. Thompson is a talented musician and the fact that he had been diagnosed with Lou Gherig's disease by the time of the recording (something I found out after hearing the CD) just made it that much more poignant. The music on the CD is a balanced mix of lighter and darker music. The joy and humor come through in the upbeat songs while the tragedy and sadness of the War comes through the solemn pieces in a way that more glib, nauseously cheery musicians would never be able to communicate.

Another Task Made Simple

I bought the Wonder Winder because I was tired of detangling my extension cord for each new project. I have now used it for over 18 months and I am impressed with its resilience and versatility. I can't even remember all the power cord nightmares of the past. The Wonder Winder performs so flawlessly and effortlessly that I hardly ever notice it. When I first received it, I was concerned with its light weight and plastic material, but this product was engineered with attention to detail befitting a first rate power tool. It's stronger than it looks and as an engineer I remain amazed by its minimalist approach to power cord retraction. The cord always re-coils like a cobra waiting to strike again. It came with two wall anchor pods allowing me to alternate the location of the Wonder Winder in different areas, as necessary. I have told all my friends about this product, and they also appreciate its design and functionality.

Best, it has a volume control, so even though it's a noise-based toy, it's manageable. There are numerous small parts and no place to store them, but add a couple of zipper-style plastic bags and the problem is resolved.

Doesn't work with all bands

I bought this based on Amazon's recommendation that it is frequently purchased with the watch I was buying. There are several types of bands as illustrated at [...] and it is very difficult to determine which type your new watch has until it is in your hands. This does not work with the Casio Men's WV300DA-7AC Waveceptor Solar Atomic Silver-Tone Watch that I purchased, so I just took my watch to a nearby jeweler and they sized it perfectly for $10. The pins in the watchband are very small and pop out several feet into the air, so be careful if you attempt to size your watch band and do it in a large uncluttered work area, like on a large dining table, and be sure you have the right tool for your band. I added this to my tool box, but I am skeptical that I will ever use it. I am happy there are still local jewelers to assist with watches you did not purchase from them.

Should have passed this one by

I bought this book while visiting the Yorkshire Dales, after lapping up the James Herriot series years earlier. I was sooo excited to find the book and had romantic visions of reading about the real James Herriot while visiting his homeland.Ohhhhh, how I wish I had picked up the book, soaked up the photos, and put the book right back on the shelf.A classic case of raining on my parade; bursting my bubble; toss out ANY fitting cliche. It shattered all my illusions about James Harriet's life, experiences, and loved ones. If you are a sentimental fool like me and have read Herriot's books, pass this one byyyyy.

There is a look at Yul Bryner's film career which was interesting but mostly irrelevant to the title. There are two sections (which use the same footage) covering robots and robots in movies. The actual part covering the movie was so short that it passed in the blink of an eye. I really felt like I had picked something up from a market stall that had been knocked together in someone's back bedroom. I wouldn't touch this with a bargepole!

Not bad for what it is...

MSRP is over $200.00, If I'd paid that I'd be upset. I paid around $50.00 and for that price it's well worth it. Found the error code and gave a brief description of the code which should point you in the correct direction. Cleared the code with no problem. Manufacture website gave a little more info on the DTC's. I purchased the USB cable to preform updates but none were available as of yet.

Meh

I read a review saying that this cooled all heating problems for the Alienware 7700 laptop. Tis a lie, they must mean the 15" version cause it made my 17" 7700 heating problem worse. I put it on, and my computer instantly began to reheat. It was a waste.

I can't believe it's finally among us!

When I got to know this new edition included the MTV Unplugged I clicked on the purchase now button inmediately. The packaging is excellent, very good edition with some really cool pics. Haven't pay a lot of attention to the Redux Ten yet but it sounds a little bit different. About the DVD, it's amazing, nice video quality and perfect sound quality. Amazing show, I don't know why it took so many years to release it.

Horrible, does not work

So, I have many blackheads on my nose, I can press them and get the gunk out but they come back. I bought these strips hoping to solve my problem.The first thing I'd like to note is that the strips LOVE to stick to themselves. The first strip I opened stuck to itself immediately and wouldn't come part. The second strip went on fine, it got hard after 10-15 minutes and I peeled the strip off towards the bottom of my nose (like the instructions say to do.It got a few blackheads, but nothing worth paying for (maybe 4-5 blackheads came out). The rest were left unscathed. Also, the strip leaves your skin uncomfortably dry where it was.

A wonderful book!

If you enjoy figure photography, are a fan of dance, or are an artist in search of interesting photo reference, then this book is a "must-buy", especially for the price. This collection of underwater photographs of ballet-dancers is breathtakingly beautiful and inventive, and provides rare glimpses of the human form in graceful motion, without the constraints of gravity. I never tire of this book!

Best for the Price

There are less expensive diapers out there, but I found that Pampers and Huggies might be more money, but are the better diaper too. I also found that Baby Dry diapers were the least expensive of the diapers that work. I have a girl and they work great. I really don't even price check anymore. I just get these using amazon mom and subscribe and save and get them as cheap as I can. I lot easier shopping for diapers when you have your favorite, and these are definitely my favorite.Edit October 2012: I now have another baby girl. I decided to give luvs a try again, and like them this time around. I didn't like them with my first daughter. Not sure if my opinion changed or if luvs changed their diaper up. There is definitely a different feel than other brands, but after amazon mom ended I started shopping again and now I get luvs from sam's club.

The Best Everclear

This is the CD, and Santa Monica the song, that made them famous, and rightly so. There is something eerie here, the pop-like texture, with the horror-stories that sound like real life. Weird juxtapostion. Also the smooth rocking guitar of Black Girl Friend, which taken together is almost naive in it's assertions. End to end a great CD.

are they kidding ?

the reason this singer songwriter hasnt hit it big is because she can barely sing and her voice isnt nice to listen to----the songs are provocative and interesting--someone else should sing them ! and the music isnt bad--- but who could listen to this??- who would want to when u can hear birds or the drone of a refrigerator humming or nothing- sweet nothing----

Worth the money and time

Great book, great web site. Don't be fooled by people saying helping people should be free. What is spent on these two items is less than what many people spend eating in junk food in a week. And what if it changes your life for the better on top of that. Take a chance as he says in his book "Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds." Albert Einstein

LEWD AND WEIRD

horrible writing. every adult that reads her books can't stand it. these books are difficult to read with continuity and are un-enjoyable because of the strangeness about them. the main character is creepy and just plain weird. this book in particular has lewd writing such as 'put a pickle in his puss'. we had throw out the book because our kids' uncles, aunts, and grandparents all complained that the writing was too disgusting in several places. we all have no idea how this author got into publishing. aside from that, the kids are frightened by the characters. i would NOT recommend these books to anyone, especially children.

THE SWG DEV TEAM SHOULD BE FIRED

People DO NOT purchase this game or any other SOE releases. The SWG dev team must be held accountable for theyre sole ruination of the SWG game. All attempts by customers to seek support with SOE customer service has been negated. THIS IS AN AWFUL product and I suggest highly that anyone interested in playing a online game do not purchase A SOE release. Try playing WOW or Matrix Online instead.one of thousands disgruntled andangerd customersthat have left theSWG game. SOE is terrible.

slow torture

We were shocked by the rave reviews of this movie -- especially the comparison on the video jacket to the "Full Monty". Perhaps we missed the humor (where was it?), but we found the story painful and slow. Too bad, because John Hurt is usually good at whatever he does... but when given a bad script and a worse supporting cast, what can he do? How can this be seen as a comedy?! Felt like a depressing waste of an evening. No love and lots of death (of brain cells) on Long Island.

Very good and informative for newer fans

I read this book and could not put it down. I am younger so I do not know a lot about the earlier albums and this book provided that information nicely. I like how the author showed some of the inspirations and history of many of The Artist's songs. The book also had a lot of good recent interviews with people who used to work with The Artist and said where they were now. One more excellent feature was the two reference sections, reviews for every album and an exhausted discography. The only bad part was that the author strayed away from the topic of The Artist a few times with the history of Minnesota, segregation, and the record industry. It also would have been nice if the book was in chronological order. Overall it was a very good book for newer fans of The Artist.

Great premise, terrible movie

I love Meg Ryan, and like Nicholas Cage, and wound up renting this movie in the hope of seeing a romantic, lush movie. The movie starts off slow - and then just gets slower. Cage is moody and somewhat one-dimensional, Ryan is great but not enough to carry the picture.I could have walked away with a good feeling overall if the "twist" at the ending hadn't been ridiculous and frustrating. Who wants to see a movie with an unhappy & depressing ending?Save your money - and your time. City of Angels made me wish for a prescription of Prozac.

Poorest of quality

I was very excited when I bought my Palm Z22. It had impressive-looking color graphics, a reasonable amount of memory, and was very competitively priced. Unfortunately, the quality of the device was abhorrent. The Z22 FREQUENTLY fails to turn on when the power button is pressed. This gets annoying really fast. The worst problem, though, is the hotsync computer hook up. I could not get my palm to link with my computer despite numerous attempts and calls to the palm help center. There was no way I back up my information to my computer or download any software for the Z22. I finally exchanged my Z22 to the store where I bought it only to get a replacement that had the identical problems to the one I replaced. This thing was a huge waste of time and money.

Excellent Book for Classes and Self-study

I used this book for my statistic class. After thoroughly reading this book, I become quite familiar with the subject matter.1. The explanations in most parts are so clear and easy to understand. A few small sections are difficult, but they are not essential topics for this book. If you think the book is not intuitive, use Peter Kennedy's A Guide to Econometrics (5th edition) as complementary reading.2. You can find all the corresponding SAS programs on the Internet. Do the exercises with SAS, otherwise you will learn nothing. If you don't know SAS, read Delwiche and Slaughter's The Little SAS Book (3rd edition) or SAS Online Tutor for Base Programming.3. If you are not familiar with basic statistic concepts, read the appendices of the book first.4. The book is sufficient and easily understood for what it contains. If you want more and deeper information, use other books to complement it.

Improbable characters that work

Who else but Elmore Leonard could come up with a phony priest and an ex-con standup comic as his hero and heroine? I'm guessing the Catholic Church left its marks on him in one way or another because he's had Catholic characters in other books, most notably TOUCH and BANDITS. I went to Catholic school, and the title PAGAN BABIES alone was enough to stir memories and draw me in. (And a tip of the hat to the person who thought to put a mission box on the cover. Perfect!) Leonard unfolds this story of scammers and scumbags with a deft hand, giving us a generous helping of his signature humor and bull's eye dialogue. No one writes like him, and thank God he's so prolific. The man is a national treasure.

Surprisingly bad

Considering both the author and the subject matter, this was surprisingly bad.Jackson's election was the first election of a president by "the people" (the people bing white, male, and in some states, just property owners). How did this happen and what did it mean for the country - you won't find out here.And Jackson as president had a significant impact on how the federal government of the United States operated, from federalism (handling South Carolina's attempt to succeed), to the National Bank, to the proposed expansion of the conuntry.So how were each of these handled and what did it mean? Again, you won't find out much here. Yes Jackson made a toast to the preservation of the Union and yes that was important. But according to this book that was it.The book reads easily and is good up through the battle of New Orleans. But it doesn't tell you much about Jackson's impact on our government and country. Yet that is why he is so important.

I purchased this toaster for a friend. It is functional, and fits her kitchen decor perfectly. This is certainly a good toaster for the money.

A literal let down....

I would say this cot literally let me down! I just returned from a family camping trip and the very first time using it, I layed down on it, and the cot very gently folded itself back up. The non rust tubing isn't very structuraly sound and doubled up. I had tried the standard cot from Coleman but it didn't work for me (I'm 6'1" and 215 lbs). Well the big boy cot ain't getting it done either. If you want some good humor for your wife and kids purchase this baby and take it along, it will make for a great story. Otherwise, I wouldn't have another one, it's just cheap!

Not very good

This stuff looks really nice right after it is applied but it doesn't have any durability whatsoever. Recently I've started using Mother's FX Tire Shine and it is a huge improvement over this product. Black Magic is very thin and watery which allows it to spin off and rinse off easy when it is wet out. The product from Mother's is very thick in comparison and doesn't sling off while giving a much better shine.

range is terrible

This is the poorest range phone I have ever purchased.I do not have a large house and the base has to be located in the center of the house to get reception inside the house. If the base is just 13 feet from the end of the house, it will not work in the bedroom just 24 feet away. It will not work outside at all. My older phone would get reception up to 150+ feet out in the yard.I emailed customer service and got no customer service and no recommendations.

The Folds of Andre's Brain

Though I did not finish reading the entire book because just this morning my cat threw up all over it, I would recommend Codrescu's A Craving for Swan. It's a collection of his writings which once aired on NPR. He chooses topics--Transylvania, Louisiana, his son, whatever--and then expounds upon them--expository style--in his own, singular, funny, forthright, post-beatnik, Eastern-European/Nawlins vernacular style. What I like about Codrescu is not so much his writing ability (not intended as a slight, Mr. Andrei) as his longing for a more human existence in an increasingly nonhuman/computerish world. His storytelling talent as well as his critical eye regarding mass media and things plugged in are top-rate. To anyone who's ever read Exquisite Corpse or has seen the video of Codrescu's ride across America, this book is certainly worth it's weight in . . . cat vomit? No. Gold? No. Mardi Gras beads wrapped around a Draculian wooden cross? Yes.

Very Happy.

I searched for awhile to find a high chair that suited our needs - portable, easy to clean, & space economical. The Fisher-Price Space Saver works for us very well. It easily attaches/detaches to any chair via 2 straps and is very secure. The cover & straps come off to be washed. Although they aren't cheap, I've even found quality replacement covers online. The chair is very adjustable and since it is convertible to a booster seat, I foresee us using it for many years. One comment about the tray - even though it is dishwasher safe, I have yet to find a dishwasher that it fits into very well, but maybe I've just had small dishwashers.
