0	The Future Of Jazz (Gulp)?	The success of Kenny G may mean that jazz musicians of the future may emulate him. Hopefully, they will see that this is not the way to go. As with all of his other releases, this is a lifeless and boring set.	negative
1	Good overview	This is a wonderful little volume for an overview. The text doesn't provide enough detail for a school project or art history buffs, but it is a great review. The book is too heavy to use as a tour book, but I bought it after our trip to Florence as a wonderful little reminder of a fascinating city. The overall size is also too small for a coffee table book.	positive
0	I kept looking for a good story.	I never found it. If it was there, it was lost in 600+ pages of wordiness and philosophical rambling that seem to have no purpose, other than perhaps to ensure we understand that this is "literature" and not mere fiction. I felt the story was contrived and full of plot twists that made no sense and an ending that was just preposterous. And in the last chapter Una says something about always wanting to be a teacher; I don't know where that came from, as there's no mention in any of the previous 600-odd pages about her desire to teach. I finished this because I bought it; if I'd gotten it from the library, I probably would have taken it back after about 100 pages.	negative
1	orcs-lets not get serious	this is an excellent lighthearted look at oh so serious world ofthe of d&d;,tolken,or any other generic "myths and monsters" youmay favor. this story turns the story upside down! it begins nearthe end of most of the normal stories, just before the finalshowdown between good and evil and is told from the viewpoint orthe orcs. if you are not into such the orc is the dumb,nasy, evil, frontline cannonfodder for the important evil characters. butin this story the orcs have aquired from a dragon a shipment ofmarine weapons and a curse on said weapons eventually turns theorcs into orc-marines! sort of smart,fighting marine style, andlooking for their future after the good guys have won. theiradventures are as improbable as they are entertaining-just donttake any of their still evilness seriously!	positive
0	Good idea that fails in implementation	I originally was quite interested in seeing this film after reading a lot of good press about it. When I finally did see the film theatrically I mainly saw little more than the failed possibilities.In my opinion the greatest weakness is in focus. The two founders are not particularly interesting characters and the choice to focus on them to the exclusion of the company itself brought the film down. As well there are significant time gaps in the growth of govWorks.com while other sections (most notably the rather boring part about securing venture capital) are given a disproportionate share of the time. In the end I never was able to care about the characters or gain any real feeling for the company they founded. It could have been about any other business that failed with very little that was specific to the time, place, or culture that surrounded the Dot-Com Boom and why it went bust.	negative
0	Binocular Strap good maybe for a season - maybe	Waste of money to buy this strap. Strap was made of plastic and a foam product, (another type of plastic), that I know from experience does not wear well. The upper part of the strap should have been at least covered with a fabric. This product belows in a dollar store.Of course I could return it, at my own expense. You pay the shipping to receive it and again to return it -- equals just about what you paid for the product.	negative
0	A series that gets worse	This book is a decent start to a series that gradually becomes awful. It's a series that goes on for many books, and like many readers I continued to read the increasingly tiresome and pointless sequels simply because I wanted to get to the ending since I had invested the time in the earlier books. The books have many annoying and tiresome attributes that would be bearable, but by the time you get to volume 5 of this series you will need to keep an airsick bag handy, or maybe just skim every 10th page. Telling you to stay away from this series is the kindest deed I am likely to do today...	negative
1	Strega Nona is a great children's book	This item, Strega Nona, came very quickly and was exactly what I wanted for my daughter's book themed babyshower. Great service.	positive
0	Wrong Disc Error after 1 month - Seems too common with this product	Had the product only 1 month. Worked great until started getting "Wrong Disc" error. Now the thing won't play any DVD's. Never dropped or exposed to extremes. Stopped working for apparently no reason.This seems like too common a problem based on my quick scan of other reviews on Amazon.Now I've got to try to get some service from Coby.....doesn't look like others have had good results with their customer service. Be Warned.	negative
0	Frayed after 1 wash	I know these towels are inexpensive, but they became frayed after the first wash & dry. I used the cold washer setting and the lowest dryer heat setting. I would never buy this brand again. The only reason I bought them was due to high reviews which had never served me wrong before on Amazon...	negative
1	Kino Edition Weakened By Poor Music	Out of the two reasonable options, I purchased the Kino version of "Nosferatu" over that of Image Entertainment. There is much to enjoy in the film, of course, which is the basis of my rating; such can not be said of the accompanying music. Two soundtracks are provided: 1) a mediocre synthesizer effort by Sosin, which stupidly incorporates some annoying, occasionally comical, sound effects; and 2) a worthless track of noise masquerading as music, wholely contemptible. I've wondered if I made the wrong choice. A couple of reviewers have suggested that the music on the IE version is even worse. I find that hard to believe, but if so, there must be a conspiracy at work. Interestingly, I own a CD of glorious music composed-- by the late, great James Bernard-- specifically for this film. I wonder why his score was not an option on either version?	positive
0	Junk watch.	I have had three of these. everyone of them broke with in 3 months.first one, the digital went wacky and wouldnt work properly any more. i did a walmart exchange in it and got another this one had the analog adjustment pin fall out and fill with water. thinking it was just a fluke, i got yet another one via walmart exchange and again, the adjustment pin fell out.also the plastic adjustment bezel paint flaked off with in 2 weeks on ever one of them ive had. it wasnt a big deal because the color plastic its made of is the same color as the paint, but its still worth notingi love this watch and wanted very desperately for it to be good, but alas, it disappointed me not once, not twice, but 3 times before i finally said screw it and gave up on the exhanges.	negative
0	Zombie baby is too much	I can see the excitement, people get out of a gorefest but this is too much. All taboos have been broken there is nothing left. Johnny Cash should come back and torment the makers of this film for misusing one of Cash's songs. He would never have approved of this film. Letting a newborn baby be come a zombie is beyond bad taste. Johnny's horsemen should trample the makers of this film into grimy puddles of gore.	negative
0	Unnaccptable massage product	The designers and manufacturers of this product must not have ever tried it out. It is unusable. It is way too loud to be considered comfortable and the jack-hammer massage is not adjustable.	negative
0	Great Expectations--Dashed	I was foolish enough to purchase a book that, apparently, only the "girls"--mea culpa, feminists--found so enthralling. And I purchased copies for two friends whom I'd taken to Paris for their first time. (My first time was while I was on a 72-hour leave from the front, Feb. '45.) I purchased it so that these delightful ladies could relive that experience. but what did I get, a guidebook for tyros. If anyone expects to find inspiration--my friends won't--to do some writing by buying this book as a guide, caveat emptor. Flaubert, Hem, Henry Miller (omitted) must be rolling over in their graves. (NB. For the poor visioned, the type is miserable. Shame on Writers Digest Books)And I had to pay full bore--before I discovered you could get a "used' copy for 50 cents--which is all that great work is worth.	negative
0	Don't buy it	under no circumstances buy this product, it takes hours to print, half priced printers can 4 times better job. HP knows it's a lemon, they admitted that the driver is bad but they will not replace it or improve the driver, I am about to trow it out and get a half priced unit.	negative
1	Sorry you have to read this good book	A good primer on the subject and treatments. After reading it I know enough to ask questions. Good luck with your treatment.	positive
0	A bad book	This book was one of the worst books i have ever read. It was boring and pointless. Irt was bad i didn't like it. i had to read it as an assignment. i hated it. it was not groovy. it was ungroovy.	negative
1	Outstanding product!	I purchased the Drill Doctor 750X several months ago, and it's one of the best investments I've made for my collection of tools. I had about 20 drill bits that were at least 20 years old...rusty, dull, and hadn't been touched in years. I sharpened them with the Drill Doctor, and they're now like new. Amazingly easy tool to use, and will pay for itself over a fairly short time. The case makes it easy to store, and it only takes a minute to pull it out and set it up. Excellent product!Suggestion: Keep the instruction book in the storage case. If you're like me, you'll need it to remember how to sharpen various types of bits (step point, masonry, etc.).	positive
1	Husband loves.	Bought for a gift and my husband loves this movie. It is great that gives you an option of digital copy so you can watch it on ipad or computer when traveling.	positive
0	I cant believe it was just the brass part	I recieved this on time and was eager to replace my chrome version of another make. All I recieved was the brass piece. This is not a fixture. I called the company and they were absolutly no help and said that there was nothing that they were willing to do to help. :(	negative

0	Arnie is Slipping	The action was OK and the story was weak and a bit predictable. The ending was just plain ridiculous...The villians BOTH survived through that fire! Come on now! They both would of died. Disapointing!	negative
1	The Best Fantasia	This is the perfect Fantasia DVD. I know some poeple did not like it going straight back to the menu after the last frame of Ave Maria. Thats how the film ended. It faded right out after Ave Maria. The credits were added later (Its so obvious and the people walking off stage must have been taken from the intermission scene.) And no that is not Deems Taylor voice. The original audio stems have been long lost. Anyway this is the best Fantasia. I mean the sound is excellent, the picture is superb. I mean you can make out people's face in the orchestra. If you have a two input televion, and the old and new release, have them both at the same spot paused. Then go htrough the input and make a comparison. What a difference. I;'m very glad I did not have to wait until I had kids before they released this. This is excellent.	positive
0	All over the place!	I downloaded the upgrades for the mouse online and for the week I used it had the problem of trying to keep the pointer from moving where I didn't want it to go. I play online games and it couldn't keep up. I ended up buying the laser mouse and smashing this product with a hammer. That was the only satisfaction I got from using this. I did stick with Logitech and got thier laser mouse which works great. I've always used thier products so one bad apple wasn't going to spoil it for me.	negative

1	History Mystery	This is my first read of Parker and i really enjoyed it. I like he he wove the history of So Cal in the late 50's and 60's with the events in the story. Kinda like Forrrest Gump. It was an easy read, I did it in a day. I'm going to read "Silent Joe" next.	positive
0	This is the worst book I ever tried to read!	I just don't get it. Maybe it is a sign of my literary ignorance. I tried to read it and listen to it, but it was too painful to endure. For me, the book had no redeeming qualities - not the characters, the plot (or lack thereof), or the writing style. A complete waste of time.	negative
0	don't bother upgrading	I bought a new computer with windows XP and decided if i was going to be running the newest Windows I should run the newest Printmaster. I upgraded from Platinum 11 and I'm sending back Platinum 15 and re-installing 11. More than half the images are online now. You get three art discs and have to sort through online garbage to get the rest. It's to get you to sign up for their Million image club for another $$. They took away some features and added nothing. Quality went down. Wait for them to bring it back up before upgrading.	negative
0	more crap for the masses	eat it up, if i take a dump on a compact disc, will you buy that to? same thing.	negative
0	Disappointing / Thank God	While reading 'Industrial Society and Its Future' online, I am immediately struck by the sophist and hypocritical understanding of leftism. While discussing hidden inferiority and control of power the reader can't help but make psychological projections against the author. The man's biography is of much greater interest than this work. His struggle with a very complicated and layered self hate (that I see in this essay) may very well be the result of CIA experiments he underwent (during the 60's) while a genius student at Harvard.'The Information Bomb', by Paul Virilio is an exciting viewpoint for those concerned about technology's (and less explicitly, the left's) assault on humanity.	negative
1	nikon sb-400 speedlight	love it~not as bulky as the sb-600 and works just as well. Can point flash up but not sideways ~ only con ~ but how often would I use that feature anyway?	positive
1	Lot's of entertainment!	I really have enjoyed this game, as it has so much variety. Even the games I thought I would not care for, I found to be strangely addictive. Great fun while waiting for the oil to be changed in your car! Definite keeper.	positive
0	Boring	This book goes on and on and on and on. I couldn't buy into any of the characters. They had no substance. And the wife, move on already!	negative
0	This one misses, but....	After realizing, some time ago, that the main reason I listened to Pat Matheny recordings was because of the piano, I bought all of Lyle Mays' CDs, and he has become one of my favorite jazz composers and performers. His technique is excellent, and his compositions can be both lyrical and challenging. He has something to say with his music, which is surprisingly rare among many otherwise gifted performers.If he ever records another solo performance, I will buy it because I know he has a great talent and is capable of delivering a stunning solo performance. However, this first try is awful.	negative
1	Astonishing depth and scope	You are probably not an educated shooter if you haven't read this book. The chapters on biomechanics, vision, and technique feature some of the best information available for shooters. The author devotes nearly 40 pages to the chapter "aiming" and 35 pages to "releasing the trigger." In a field that has been inundated with bad science, fallacious reasoning, and dubious assumptions, COMPETITIVE SHOOTING is a breath of fresh air. A little dry and "textbookish," but the information content is incredible.	positive

1	better than what you people say	ok now people are always telling me that the fan is poop. pish posh it is a pretty good movie. the concept of the movie is good.. really good.. and de niro pulls it off.. really good. i mean of course snipes performance is nothing to get orgasmic about, but look past that, look at the story. and then think, could there really be people out there that have no life and are like him. i mean it's just such a neat story, and i think people look past that. in my opinion it is a pretty good movie that should be givin a chance. like some people say they like jeepers creepers... now that is a piece of poo poo... but this movie is a lot better than what people say. give it a chance and just look at the story.. and i bet u might like it	positive

1	can you really talk to her?	This film begins in one place by provoking questions about whether life in a persistent vegetative state is truly life, and whether and how a loved one might relate, if at all, to a person in a coma. Marco is a travel writer whose girlfriend Lydia is in a coma. When he asks the doctor whether there is any hope, the doctor responds, "Medically or scientifically, no, but if you choose to believe, go ahead." The male nurse Benigno does believe. He truly loves the dancer Alicia, who is a patient of his also in a coma. He talks to her, baths her, cuts her hair, and tenderly cares for her. He tells Marcos that the last four years caring for her have been the richest and most rewarding years of his life. The film would have been good enough with just this trajectory, but director Pedro Almodovar drives three of these four subjects toward entirely unexpected and ambiguous ends that leave you with many more answers than questions. In Spanish with English subtitles.	positive
1	Great Advice For Improving Your Mood	I heard the author interviewed about this book, so I bought it for a friend to try some of the easy dietary suggestions to help avoid the blues.	positive
1	A wonderful addition to my collection!!!!	I purchased this book several months ago and I have to say that every recipe I've made has been superb! I really like the way each recipe is broken down into stages and the added bonus of variations to change things up a bit (if you care to do so). I highly recommend this cookbook to anyone who loves to bake, but can't take a whole day to do so. The author really has a passion for baking and it shows, trust me you won't be dissapointed!! Kudos!!	positive
1	I found this book very inspirational and helpful.	Ray Pritchard's new book has encouraged me during some difficult moments in my life. Keep Believing has pointed me back to God as the only solid foundation.Cheryl Lync	positive
1	The First Columbo Episode - Original Airdate Feb 20, 1968	This pilot episode is terrific. This original episode was the beginning of one of the best TV series of all time with great writing, excellent acting and a all-around quality production.In this episode, Dr. Ray Flemming, a rich and highly intelligent psychiatrist, who seems to have it all, attempts the perfect crime. It is Columbo against Dr. Flemming in a battle of wits which is just terrific television.	positive
1	Hallmark Collector's Set Vol. 3	Got it for gifts to my family but I had seen all of the movies on it and knew they would like them.	positive
1	Great Product	I chose this speaker wire because of the price and the fact that insulator cover is red & white so you can easly set up for positive and negative connections. It is fairly heavey duty and large, about the size of a lamp cord, so not easily hidden, but it is white, so it blended in for our use. It was great for connecting our new polk audio speakers.	positive
1	Well illustrated	This handy volume is a pocket catalog of the latest American hardware. It's quite up-to-date, though I'm in no position to assess its accuracy or comprehensiveness.The contents are as follow: Intro, Strategic Weapons Systems, Combat Aircraft, Support Aircraft, Special Electronic & Reconnaissance Aircraft, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, Air-to-Air Missiles, Air-to-Surface Weapons, Surface Weapons, Submarines, Naval Weapons Systems, Tanks and Fighting Vehicles, Land Warfare-Indirect Fire Weapons, Land Warfare-Direct Fire Weapons, Air Defense Systems, Small Arms.What this book lacks is an Index, and Sources and Bibilography.A useful overview of the equipment of the most powerful military in the world. Have it by your side as you watch CNN.	positive
1	Camp Cbef Explorer 2	Ordered just in time to use for a large gathering in conjunction with my wife's 50th birthday celebration, with approximately 40 friends and family in attendance. Using two large 20 qrt stock pots and a cast iron skillet, cooked a large batch of shrimp and grits with the Camp Chef. For starters, it took me no more than a few minutues to set it up and then I was cooking. Loved it. Set up, ease of use, results all fantastic. Can't wait to use it for future large gatherings. Very sold and sturdy. I can tell it will serve me well for years to come.	positive
0	Shabby	The perfect circle was heavily used... on top of that it had been shortened by the previous owner for a smaller leg, It had been cut and re-sewn and there were a lot of frayed edges... had to repair just to make it useful... poor value and I was charged a high price	negative
1	"The Client" is a must-see!	I saw "The Client" for the first time a couple of years ago, and I still enjoy watching it. First of all, it is based on the book written by one of the legal thrillers authors, John Grisham, and that should catch your attention immediately. Secondly, Tommy Lee Jones and Susan Sarandon deliver their best performance ever! Now to talk a bit about the plot-line: the story of a ten-year-old boy with a mob secret moves along smoothly, leaving no plot-holes. Find out how a small boy plans to hide behind a rookie lawyer and outsmart the supreme court to save himself and his family! Buy this movie today!	positive
1	This is the MOVIE up in this PIECE!	This was a great flick. Hands-down, it's the best work Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke have each done, respectively. Washington plays corrupt detective Alonzo with so much charisma, it is frighteningly convincing. This story (aided by the superb acting) is a perfect demonstration how charisma and strong personality can overwhelm those unsuspecting individuals who are in a "I look up to you" position.The heart of the film is Ethan Hawke's portrayal which functions as a perfect counter to Washington's. Here, we see the idealistic young cop faced with the reality of the jaded, corrupt, and ultimately evil cop. As Alonzo uses his "training day" with Hoyt (Hawke) to serve his own needs, it becomes apparent to the viewer and to Hoyt, that he is being used like a pawn to serve a greater, sinister plan. It turns into a struggle for Hoyt's ideals and ultimate survival in the end.Excellent film overall. Stunning and engrossing, it only gets better with repeated viewings.	positive
0	An unfortunate flaw.	This product has a flaw that, unfortunately, has compromised the integrity of my Sony Ericcson 810i mobile phone. I ordered two of them for two family members. The first time I used the first one, just 5 days ago, when I went to remove it, two clips disassociated from the charger and remained in the charging port of the phone. These are very fragile plastic clips. I had no choice but to push the charger back onto them in the hope that they would click into place on the charger itself and be able to be disengaged from the phone. This has happened only with one of the clips. This means that I cannot use the house charger or the music earphones with my phone. Further, I have to remain with this car charger attached to avoid having that single unmoving clip break off in the phone port, thereby disabling the phone seriously. I have reported this problem to Sony Ericcson by email. The other charger has remained unopened until I sort this out.	negative
1	Great Teaching DVD	Great product! It is as close to having a Tai Chi teacher in your living room as any DVD could hope to come. He does a great job of teaching the movements and repeating them several times so that your body memorizes them. It is easy enough for almost anyone to perform yet still challenging and relaxing enough to be appealing to anyone with a sincere interest to learn Tai Chi. Great for Beginners.Of personal note: I have fibromyalgia and a post surgical hip injury. I find many exercise DVDs to be either too aggressive or way too soft. This is perfect for me. I actually do the 10 minute warm up EVERY morning now--and in one month I have RADICALLY improved my flexibility and decreased muscle pain and stiffness. The leg strength I have developed from the balancing movements has gotten me to a place that my physical therapist stated that I no longer need pt for my hip! I have had great results from Tai Chi! This DVD was exactly what I needed to start Tai Chi.	positive
1	Goover Flair	We are very pleased with the Flair. It is light, maneuverable and powerful. It has great suction and has a low profile that lets it get under chairs and other furniture. I would recommend the Flair to anyone looking for a light duty vacuum.	positive
1	Must-need for any rigger	I have seen this Rigger book and must say, it is phenominal. I was suprised to see that Amazon had anything on Shadowrun at all, but this is amazing. Very detailed with great new vehicles and spectacular drawings, a must for anyone who wants more than the average Shadowmobile.	positive
0	Well Played, But Not What I Was Looking For	The University of Michigan band plays these 41 songs very well. However, the style is not what I was looking for. I wanted to hear the fight songs the way I would hear them on Saturday afternoon at the stadium. Instead, they play the music way I would hear it at the end-of-the-year sit-down concert in the auditorium. Even with their own "The Victors" fight song. Not the CD I would play to get pumped up for the big game. If you're looking for the marching band type of sound, try "Touchdown!" by Florida State's band. It's available here on Amazon.com.	negative
0	Cute potty & would be great if it just wasn't so small...	This potty is really cute and the handlebars and rolling ball offer a distraction for a child who needs to sit there and (hopefully) go potty. Unfortunately, my son (who is 22 months) is unable to use it because it is so small. He is a little big for his age, but this seat seems to be made for a child who is very petite. When he sits on it, his knees go all the way up to the handlebars and bump on them. (it looks as if an adult is sitting on a tricycle) Plus, the actual part the child is supposed to go to the bathroom in is not very deep and so tiny that I think if my son was able to fit on the seat and go in it, once he went it would fill up the seat and wind up getting all over his rear! So, while this is a cute potty I would not recommend it unless your child is extremely petite.	negative
0	Crude Tool	1. Not a very well made machine.2. Trying to add all of the options is impossible.3. The expander cannot be bolted into the machine.4. The drill bits are poor quality and difficult to install and use.5. The handle to pull the drill bit into the material is hard to pull. No touch at all using the handle.6. The machine came all greasy and was difficult to wipedown. It was a mess.7. It was easier to setup my drill press and use than using this machine.	negative
1	Outstanding and informative for even a beginning horseperson	Like most of the other books published by the United States Pony Club, this one is tops. It not only explains how to bandage your horse but shows you with clear illustrations as well. I am a member of the U.S. Pony Club and found this book useful in studying for ratings. It taught me so well that I scored higher than average. This book is the best book on the topic ever written!	positive

0	WASTE OF MONEY 3	I bought this with some other reggae CD's. This is painful too listen to as well. The singer on the second cut doesn't even know the words!.I AM SORRY I BOUGHT THIS CD. I bought the whole series. I use one of them as a coaster and the others i gave to my nephew who is 13. He won't know the difference, but you will.	negative
0	Disappointed	I bought this to switch between Dish DVR 622 receiver and a Panasonic upscaling DVD player. It worked great for about a month. Now, it won't switch from DVD to Dish, not even manually, no matter if the DVD is powered off. I unplugged the DVD from it, then it would switch to Dish. I can plug the DVD player back in and when I'm ready to watch a DVD, it will switch to DVD, but it won't switch back to Dish after that. I'm going to get a remote controlled switch to replace it.	negative
1	Finally, a programming book I can learn from!!	For the last couple years I have aimlessly wandered from one perl book to another and gotten nowhere. Not being a programmer many of the books were just too hard to follow or intoduced too many concepts at one time in a way that made absolutlely no sense. But today, I picked up the llama book and that all changed. After only a couple hours, I had already written some useful (very simple) programs without, and I repeat without having to refer back to the book. Not only that, I cannot wait to read the next chapter, I am totally jazzed. Thank you Randal L. Schwartz.	positive
1	I really liked this story	I have read another of Rhyannon Byrd's books and loved it. This one was just as wonderful. You can feel the chemistry between the two characters and the heat. If you liked "Against the Wall" then you will like this story as well. This was another one that I could not put down until I finished it. Definitely give this one a chance.	positive
0	don't get this movie	the previews to this movie was good. so i watched it, and i thought it was a really, really, AWFUL movie. mr. jones and ms. streep are great actors but this was their worst movie. i felt like i was a fly on the wall(spying on my parents (love) life. i kepted thinking somebody please comes by with a fly swatter and smack me with it or brings bug spray and spray my eyes out. if older couples are having marriage trouble this movie would(might) help them. if you are the type who knows that your parents kiss, make out, etc. but get grossed when they do it in front of you, your friends, or in public, don't rent this movie or buy it.	negative
0	Don't waste your money	I found the book very difficult to follow. The photographs were not clear, and directions were confusing. Even after several attempts to practice the movements, I never felt as though I were performing them correctly.	negative

1	Not Perfect, But A Nice Statement of Purpose	As usual, U2 brings out the passion in people, for better or worse. I think that, like "The Fly" and like "Beautiful Day," this is a great declaration of intent. It's not the best song off HTDAAB (wait 'til "Love and Peace or Else" and "Miracle Drug" for that), but it's loud and ferocious. Bono's in great voice here, and the whole sound is very dynamic and uncompromising. You can nitpick the little touches, but just remember that the Beatles had some odd little squiggles and touches on their songs, too.I like the remix of "Vertigo," for the record. I'm sure I'll be hearing it in my local gym non-stop all winter.	positive
1	Great read	Wonderful read, gave a very personal insight to life as a world war II pilot. I recommend this book to anyone wanting a good biography.	positive
1	Good collection, Hard to Watch in one Session	Great Collection, but you have to watch in several sessions to appreciate. I think the 1st in this series was better.	positive
0	Hotel Dusk	Hated It. Was looking for hidden object game, which this was advertised as. I got to 8:40 anyway, but say or do the wrong thing or wrong answer to a person, END GAME. I am done. I am in pain 24/7 and find games that hold my concentration will keep that at a tolerable level for sometimes a very long time. The Forgotten Ruins is a perfect example. I can't wait for DS to come out with more. I ruined my computer filling it with downloads. Don't like most arcade games, but Mahjong and Jewelquest work for me. Any old games or similar ones especially by Spintop would be much appreciated advice from anyone from you or your reviewers. Sincerely, E. Zaharopoulos	negative
0	Product failed after 2 weeks and no support	After only 2 weeks on, the product totally failed, and support is only open from 8-5 mountain time, so if you work, there's no way to get support.

0	This is an Ink Gobbling Cash Bandit	I rarely use a printer. Maybe 25 sheets or less per year and somehow I purchased this printer and all I ever do is pour money into it for ink that I don't even use.The ripoff with this printer is you MUST use 4 ink cartdiges and you cannot simply put in 4 black cartridges if you want. The printer will not function at all and forces you to buy more ink if you want to use it.I had no idea this was the deal or I would never have wasted my money.	negative
1	As a humor writer, this is funny!	As a humor writer, simply put...this is a very funny book. Why? Because you will find something in it that you can relate to or have lived through that will make you laugh your butt off. Susan has a way of writing about the daily chaos that we all experience in such a way that we can all laugh about it. She puts you, the reader, in her sinking ship and believe me...we are all having a blast! You MUST hear her voice...read it with her ever so charming southern accent. It makes her even more real and funny. It's all about the twang! I look forward to more of Susan's crazy, mess-up adventures.	positive
1	....."Don't Let It Be Forgot.....That Once There Was A Spot......."	For me, to finally hear this in all of it's digital splendor,is both an absolute joy, and emotional pain to hear. The joy, obvious. To listen to Julie Andrews soar, brought painfully home, that her voice has been ruined,and how much that must be emotionally wrenching for her, today.	positive
1	Not as good as the first three	Ms. Chute is Maine's premier author. Sorry, Stephen. However, in the Snow Man the character development did not match the intensity of the characters from Egypt, Maine. Also, it is hard to believe the entire scenario of Roger hold-up with Kristy and Connie. But, Ms. Chute's style and philosophy are there and that makes it wothwhile. If you are new to Ms. Chute try "The Beans of Egypt, Maine" first. If you've read any of Ms. Chute's other books, don't hesitate to read this one.	positive
1	Nice tea pot!	I just received this tea pot. It seems like great quality, but the tea pot came with the black handle unattached and there is no easy way to attach it that we can find. Not sure if it is supposed to come attached and this is an error, or what.	positive

0	way too scary for younger children	This book was assigned to my 8-year-old at school, and I decided to read it myself after he said he was afraid to look at it when he was alone.Even as an adult, I was pretty creeped out by the demon-mother character, and it was completely inappropriate for a second-grader.I think it borders on abusive to give this book to any child younger than 10 or 11.	negative

0	No support and it does not work	I purchased the retail version of this. It installed fine and then required an upgrade that replaced the installed version. The update came without integrated help files. They had to be downloaded separately. Once installed the software, no matter my attempts would not burn a DVD data disk. I sent an e-mail for help (phone support is by the minute) and am still waiting for them to fix the problem. I sent them an error log file three times before they seemed to get it and then they had me download a new version which did not work either (again with no integrated help files). Despite them having the problem for three weeks now, I still cannot use the software for the purpose I purchased it for.After spending time on the phone with Nero customer support, their response was to use the fee based support to get help.My recommendation is buy CD Creator by Sonic. It works!!	negative

0	The Body Fat Analyzer is electronic snake oil	I'll give it one star for being kind of pretty. Oh, and it came with batteries. That's where the positives stop. I do not believe it measures anything significant. It seems to be table based. I started by being honest with the device. I gave it my height of 6'1", my weight of 170 and my age of 67, a normal level of activity male. It gave me a reading of 17% body fat. There is no way I could have that much fat.I waited a few minutes and decided to change a couple of variables. I changed my age to 21 and my level of activity to athlete but kept weight and height the same. This time my body fat was 5.7%. That number is probably pretty accurate. To get your correct reading how do you know what age and level of activity to enter?If it actually measured % body fat by electrical impedance alone why would it need any information from you?I'll probably get my money's worth by making friends think it works and that they they have a high percentage of body fat.	negative

1	Excellent and well-written	I enjoyed this book a great deal. I absolutely loved Ender's Game, and although this is a very different novel from Ender's Game, it is just as riveting. The author really stretches the reader's imagination. His characters look and sound so real they just about jump off the page. I have just two criticisms that prevented me from awarding 5 stars - First, I found the religious pontificating a bit much. And lastly, I found that it took me quite a while to distinguish between the many characters. (Ouanda, Olhado, Quim, Quara, Pipo, Libo and Miro.) Luckily the author provided family trees for the characters in the introduction. Another page that I needed to fold down for reference was the page that defined framling, raman and varelse. I'm afraid I'm hooked on this series, so excuse me, I'm off to buy Xenocide to see what happens next!	positive

1	Another nice trio of Xander episodes	Like the first volume of this "sub-series," these are truly episodes that focus on the troubled life of Xander Harris. "The Zeppo" is my favorite, mainly because it strikes my funny bone head-on to think that Coredlia actually knows about the Marx Brothers. Actually, I figured that particular allusion went over the heads of the vast majority of the Buffy audience. But it is nice that Joss tosses a bone to us older fans every once in a while. Anyhow, for my money this is one of the better Buffy novelizations.	positive
0	Burning Bright	I bought this book, Burning Bright, with great anticipation, after I read and liked her previous 2 books, Girl with a Perl Earring, and The Lady with the Unicorn. I am most disappointed by this effort. Perhaps, I am thinking, it is not Tracy Chevalier's writing after all? The above mentioned two novels were magical, the language wonderful, while this one is flat, forced, boring, and so on. I tried to read on valiantly but eventually gave up at page 46. An old professor of my said long ago: "Who does not speak Arabic, should not speak Arabic".	negative
1	Throwdown's Power House Album	I guess it's been a while since I listened to this record, but I am still blown away at the energy and power that Throwdown brought on this album. The whole album is so hardcore and there is not one time on the cd that they guys let up.	positive
1	Electro Industrial classic...	The "Like a Prayer" is club classic at its best. Scratchy vocals and a thumping beat give this song more life and speed than Madonna ever intended. However, do not forget the A side of this single "On The Run." The Starry clubbing and Turbo mixes are a great jump start to any Saturday night clubbing. The electro beats and speed of this song will get you going and your body moving. Highly recommended.	positive
1	The essentials of Cat Stevens' music	Considering that this is the only collection with the gorgeous "Two Fine People", I would have to say that this hits collection is indeed the one to pick up. Every song is filled with the character and tender melodies that Stevens would pour into his work, and I can recall many years ago when I first came across this CD, how the many listens I would give to it would give me peace when times were rather chaotic and stressful. From "Wild World" to "Oh Very Young", this hits collection from Stevens is well-worth the purchase.	positive
0	Tough going	Reading this novel was slow going. As a guy, I found the lack of action stultifying, and the flashes of humor were too quaint for me to derive any pleasure from them. The answer to the book's primary riddle--who shall Emma marry?--becomes obvious early on, and everything else is just a tedious pairing off until that riddle is expressly answered. There's a bit of local and historical color, but rarely does the narrative rise above the description of, say, a summer outing. Not one of Jane Austen's best.	negative
0	No Performance Gains at all	I've had this K&N on my Jeep Wrangler for several months now and have found that it really does not give me any gains in fuel economy or horsepower. At best, I've noticed it does make the exhaust system sound a little louder but that does not translate to any performance boost in freeway, street, or off-road driving. To be honest, I didn't buy this system because of any claims by the manufacturer that it would boost fuel or performance, I bought it so I wouldn't have to replace the air filter as often. I live in an extremely dusty area and do a lot of off-roading. The K&N is easy to clean and eliminates the need to constantly buy the stock paper filters. It also seems to filter better than the stock filters. If you're looking for the performance boost that K&N claims then I wouldn't waste your money on this system, if you're just looking for a more efficient air filter over stock then try it but it is expensive for what you get.	negative
1	so so	i belive that while this may not be the best book you have ever read it is still worth reading. i thought that while the overall plot was better then eragon but it just didnt have that flow to it that made eragon such a huge success. this book does have a few interesting moments like during eragons training and the final battle. but all in all the grand suprise of this book was really predictable in my opinion but still will work out nicely for the next book. i belive that the 3rd book shows promise if he writes it correctly. all in all i am hoping that this book was just building up for the next book. i do not belive it is as good as last but i know many people will like it a lot.	positive
1	Wonderful, uplifting story	This is a must see movie! There are a lot of differences from the book, but more than enough content was saved to stay true to the story line. An excellent book about love and hope - something that is needed in these trying times.Watch this with your children!	positive

Good overview

This is a wonderful little volume for an overview. The text doesn't provide enough detail for a school project or art history buffs, but it is a great review. The book is too heavy to use as a tour book, but I bought it after our trip to Florence as a wonderful little reminder of a fascinating city. The overall size is also too small for a coffee table book.

I kept looking for a good story.

I never found it. If it was there, it was lost in 600+ pages of wordiness and philosophical rambling that seem to have no purpose, other than perhaps to ensure we understand that this is "literature" and not mere fiction. I felt the story was contrived and full of plot twists that made no sense and an ending that was just preposterous. And in the last chapter Una says something about always wanting to be a teacher; I don't know where *that* came from, as there's no mention in any of the previous 600-odd pages about her desire to teach. I finished this because I bought it; if I'd gotten it from the library, I probably would have taken it back after about 100 pages.

this is an excellent lighthearted look at oh so serious world ofthe of d&d;,tolken,or any other generic "myths and monsters" youmay favor. this story turns the story upside down! it begins nearthe end of most of the normal stories, just before the finalshowdown between good and evil and is told from the viewpoint orthe orcs. if you are not into such the orc is the dumb,nasy, evil, frontline cannonfodder for the important evil characters. butin this story the orcs have aquired from a dragon a shipment ofmarine weapons and a curse on said weapons eventually turns theorcs into orc-marines! sort of smart,fighting marine style, andlooking for their future after the good guys have won. theiradventures are as improbable as they are entertaining-just donttake any of their still evilness seriously!

Good idea that fails in implementation

I originally was quite interested in seeing this film after reading a lot of good press about it. When I finally did see the film theatrically I mainly saw little more than the failed possibilities.In my opinion the greatest weakness is in focus. The two founders are not particularly interesting characters and the choice to focus on them to the exclusion of the company itself brought the film down. As well there are significant time gaps in the growth of govWorks.com while other sections (most notably the rather boring part about securing venture capital) are given a disproportionate share of the time. In the end I never was able to care about the characters or gain any real feeling for the company they founded. It could have been about any other business that failed with very little that was specific to the time, place, or culture that surrounded the Dot-Com Boom and why it went bust.

Binocular Strap good maybe for a season - maybe

Waste of money to buy this strap. Strap was made of plastic and a foam product, (another type of plastic), that I know from experience does not wear well. The upper part of the strap should have been at least covered with a fabric. This product belows in a dollar store.Of course I could return it, at my own expense. You pay the shipping to receive it and again to return it -- equals just about what you paid for the product.

A series that gets worse

This book is a decent start to a series that gradually becomes awful. It's a series that goes on for many books, and like many readers I continued to read the increasingly tiresome and pointless sequels simply because I wanted to get to the ending since I had invested the time in the earlier books. The books have many annoying and tiresome attributes that would be bearable, but by the time you get to volume 5 of this series you will need to keep an airsick bag handy, or maybe just skim every 10th page. Telling you to stay away from this series is the kindest deed I am likely to do today...

Kino Edition Weakened By Poor Music

Out of the two reasonable options, I purchased the Kino version of "Nosferatu" over that of Image Entertainment. There is much to enjoy in the film, of course, which is the basis of my rating; such can not be said of the accompanying music. Two soundtracks are provided: 1) a mediocre synthesizer effort by Sosin, which stupidly incorporates some annoying, occasionally comical, sound effects; and 2) a worthless track of noise masquerading as music, wholely contemptible. I've wondered if I made the wrong choice. A couple of reviewers have suggested that the music on the IE version is even worse. I find that hard to believe, but if so, there must be a conspiracy at work. Interestingly, I own a CD of glorious music composed-- by the late, great James Bernard-- specifically for this film. I wonder why his score was not an option on either version?

Junk watch.

I have had three of these. everyone of them broke with in 3 months.first one, the digital went wacky and wouldnt work properly any more. i did a walmart exchange in it and got another this one had the analog adjustment pin fall out and fill with water. thinking it was just a fluke, i got yet another one via walmart exchange and again, the adjustment pin fell out.also the plastic adjustment bezel paint flaked off with in 2 weeks on ever one of them ive had. it wasnt a big deal because the color plastic its made of is the same color as the paint, but its still worth notingi love this watch and wanted very desperately for it to be good, but alas, it disappointed me not once, not twice, but 3 times before i finally said screw it and gave up on the exhanges.

Zombie baby is too much

I can see the excitement, people get out of a gorefest but this is too much. All taboos have been broken there is nothing left. Johnny Cash should come back and torment the makers of this film for misusing one of Cash's songs. He would never have approved of this film. Letting a newborn baby be come a zombie is beyond bad taste. Johnny's horsemen should trample the makers of this film into grimy puddles of gore.

Great Expectations--Dashed

I was foolish enough to purchase a book that, apparently, only the "girls"--mea culpa, feminists--found so enthralling. And I purchased copies for two friends whom I'd taken to Paris for their first time. (My first time was while I was on a 72-hour leave from the front, Feb. '45.) I purchased it so that these delightful ladies could relive that experience. but what did I get, a guidebook for tyros. If anyone expects to find inspiration--my friends won't--to do some writing by buying this book as a guide, caveat emptor. Flaubert, Hem, Henry Miller (omitted) must be rolling over in their graves. (NB. For the poor visioned, the type is miserable. Shame on Writers Digest Books)And I had to pay full bore--before I discovered you could get a "used' copy for 50 cents--which is all that great work is worth.

Outstanding product!

I purchased the Drill Doctor 750X several months ago, and it's one of the best investments I've made for my collection of tools. I had about 20 drill bits that were at least 20 years old...rusty, dull, and hadn't been touched in years. I sharpened them with the Drill Doctor, and they're now like new. Amazingly easy tool to use, and will pay for itself over a fairly short time. The case makes it easy to store, and it only takes a minute to pull it out and set it up. Excellent product!Suggestion: Keep the instruction book in the storage case. If you're like me, you'll need it to remember how to sharpen various types of bits (step point, masonry, etc.).

The Best Fantasia

This is the perfect Fantasia DVD. I know some poeple did not like it going straight back to the menu after the last frame of Ave Maria. Thats how the film ended. It faded right out after Ave Maria. The credits were added later (Its so obvious and the people walking off stage must have been taken from the intermission scene.) And no that is not Deems Taylor voice. The original audio stems have been long lost. Anyway this is the best Fantasia. I mean the sound is excellent, the picture is superb. I mean you can make out people's face in the orchestra. If you have a two input televion, and the old and new release, have them both at the same spot paused. Then go htrough the input and make a comparison. What a difference. I;'m very glad I did not have to wait until I had kids before they released this. This is excellent.

You get three art discs and have to sort through online garbage to get the rest. It's to get you to sign up for their Million image club for another $$. They took away some features and added nothing. Quality went down. Wait for them to bring it back up before upgrading.

Disappointing / Thank God

While reading 'Industrial Society and Its Future' online, I am immediately struck by the sophist and hypocritical understanding of leftism. While discussing hidden inferiority and control of power the reader can't help but make psychological projections against the author. The man's biography is of much greater interest than this work. His struggle with a very complicated and layered self hate (that I see in this essay) may very well be the result of CIA experiments he underwent (during the 60's) while a genius student at Harvard.'The Information Bomb', by Paul Virilio is an exciting viewpoint for those concerned about technology's (and less explicitly, the left's) assault on humanity.

This one misses, but....

After realizing, some time ago, that the main reason I listened to Pat Matheny recordings was because of the piano, I bought all of Lyle Mays' CDs, and he has become one of my favorite jazz composers and performers. His technique is excellent, and his compositions can be both lyrical and challenging. He has something to say with his music, which is surprisingly rare among many otherwise gifted performers.If he ever records another solo performance, I will buy it because I know he has a great talent and is capable of delivering a stunning solo performance. However, this first try is awful.

Astonishing depth and scope

You are probably not an educated shooter if you haven't read this book. The chapters on biomechanics, vision, and technique feature some of the best information available for shooters. The author devotes nearly 40 pages to the chapter "aiming" and 35 pages to "releasing the trigger." In a field that has been inundated with bad science, fallacious reasoning, and dubious assumptions, COMPETITIVE SHOOTING is a breath of fresh air. A little dry and "textbookish," but the information content is incredible.

can you really talk to her?

This film begins in one place by provoking questions about whether life in a persistent vegetative state is truly life, and whether and how a loved one might relate, if at all, to a person in a coma. Marco is a travel writer whose girlfriend Lydia is in a coma. When he asks the doctor whether there is any hope, the doctor responds, "Medically or scientifically, no, but if you choose to believe, go ahead." The male nurse Benigno does believe. He truly loves the dancer Alicia, who is a patient of his also in a coma. He talks to her, baths her, cuts her hair, and tenderly cares for her. He tells Marcos that the last four years caring for her have been the richest and most rewarding years of his life. The film would have been good enough with just this trajectory, but director Pedro Almodovar drives three of these four subjects toward entirely unexpected and ambiguous ends that leave you with many more answers than questions. In Spanish with English subtitles.

I purchased this book several months ago and I have to say that every recipe I've made has been superb! I really like the way each recipe is broken down into stages and the added bonus of variations to change things up a bit (if you care to do so). I highly recommend this cookbook to anyone who loves to bake, but can't take a whole day to do so. The author really has a passion for baking and it shows, trust me you won't be dissapointed!! Kudos!!

The First Columbo Episode - Original Airdate Feb 20, 1968

This pilot episode is terrific. This original episode was the beginning of one of the best TV series of all time with great writing, excellent acting and a all-around quality production.In this episode, Dr. Ray Flemming, a rich and highly intelligent psychiatrist, who seems to have it all, attempts the perfect crime. It is Columbo against Dr. Flemming in a battle of wits which is just terrific television.

Great Product

I chose this speaker wire because of the price and the fact that insulator cover is red & white so you can easly set up for positive and negative connections. It is fairly heavey duty and large, about the size of a lamp cord, so not easily hidden, but it is white, so it blended in for our use. It was great for connecting our new polk audio speakers.

Well illustrated

This handy volume is a pocket catalog of the latest American hardware. It's quite up-to-date, though I'm in no position to assess its accuracy or comprehensiveness.The contents are as follow: Intro, Strategic Weapons Systems, Combat Aircraft, Support Aircraft, Special Electronic & Reconnaissance Aircraft, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, Air-to-Air Missiles, Air-to-Surface Weapons, Surface Weapons, Submarines, Naval Weapons Systems, Tanks and Fighting Vehicles, Land Warfare-Indirect Fire Weapons, Land Warfare-Direct Fire Weapons, Air Defense Systems, Small Arms.What this book lacks is an Index, and Sources and Bibilography.A useful overview of the equipment of the most powerful military in the world. Have it by your side as you watch CNN.

Camp Cbef Explorer 2

Ordered just in time to use for a large gathering in conjunction with my wife's 50th birthday celebration, with approximately 40 friends and family in attendance. Using two large 20 qrt stock pots and a cast iron skillet, cooked a large batch of shrimp and grits with the Camp Chef. For starters, it took me no more than a few minutues to set it up and then I was cooking. Loved it. Set up, ease of use, results all fantastic. Can't wait to use it for future large gatherings. Very sold and sturdy. I can tell it will serve me well for years to come.

"The Client" is a must-see!

I saw "The Client" for the first time a couple of years ago, and I still enjoy watching it. First of all, it is based on the book written by one of the legal thrillers authors, John Grisham, and that should catch your attention immediately. Secondly, Tommy Lee Jones and Susan Sarandon deliver their best performance ever! Now to talk a bit about the plot-line: the story of a ten-year-old boy with a mob secret moves along smoothly, leaving no plot-holes. Find out how a small boy plans to hide behind a rookie lawyer and outsmart the supreme court to save himself and his family! Buy this movie today!

This is the MOVIE up in this PIECE!

This was a great flick. Hands-down, it's the best work Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke have each done, respectively. Washington plays corrupt detective Alonzo with so much charisma, it is frighteningly convincing. This story (aided by the superb acting) is a perfect demonstration how charisma and strong personality can overwhelm those unsuspecting individuals who are in a "I look up to you" position.The heart of the film is Ethan Hawke's portrayal which functions as a perfect counter to Washington's. Here, we see the idealistic young cop faced with the reality of the jaded, corrupt, and ultimately evil cop. As Alonzo uses his "training day" with Hoyt (Hawke) to serve his own needs, it becomes apparent to the viewer and to Hoyt, that he is being used like a pawn to serve a greater, sinister plan. It turns into a struggle for Hoyt's ideals and ultimate survival in the end.Excellent film overall. Stunning and engrossing, it only gets better with repeated viewings.

An unfortunate flaw.

This product has a flaw that, unfortunately, has compromised the integrity of my Sony Ericcson 810i mobile phone. I ordered two of them for two family members. The first time I used the first one, just 5 days ago, when I went to remove it, two clips disassociated from the charger and remained in the charging port of the phone. These are very fragile plastic clips. I had no choice but to push the charger back onto them in the hope that they would click into place on the charger itself and be able to be disengaged from the phone. This has happened only with one of the clips. This means that I cannot use the house charger or the music earphones with my phone. Further, I have to remain with this car charger attached to avoid having that single unmoving clip break off in the phone port, thereby disabling the phone seriously. I have reported this problem to Sony Ericcson by email. The other charger has remained unopened until I sort this out.

Great Teaching DVD

Great product! It is as close to having a Tai Chi teacher in your living room as any DVD could hope to come. He does a great job of teaching the movements and repeating them several times so that your body memorizes them. It is easy enough for almost anyone to perform yet still challenging and relaxing enough to be appealing to anyone with a sincere interest to learn Tai Chi. Great for Beginners.Of personal note: I have fibromyalgia and a post surgical hip injury. I find many exercise DVDs to be either too aggressive or way too soft. This is perfect for me. I actually do the 10 minute warm up EVERY morning now--and in one month I have RADICALLY improved my flexibility and decreased muscle pain and stiffness. The leg strength I have developed from the balancing movements has gotten me to a place that my physical therapist stated that I no longer need pt for my hip! I have had great results from Tai Chi! This DVD was exactly what I needed to start Tai Chi.

Well Played, But Not What I Was Looking For

The University of Michigan band plays these 41 songs very well. However, the style is not what I was looking for. I wanted to hear the fight songs the way I would hear them on Saturday afternoon at the stadium. Instead, they play the music way I would hear it at the end-of-the-year sit-down concert in the auditorium. Even with their own "The Victors" fight song. Not the CD I would play to get pumped up for the big game. If you're looking for the marching band type of sound, try "Touchdown!" by Florida State's band. It's available here on Amazon.com.

Cute potty & would be great if it just wasn't so small...

This potty is really cute and the handlebars and rolling ball offer a distraction for a child who needs to sit there and (hopefully) go potty. Unfortunately, my son (who is 22 months) is unable to use it because it is so small. He is a little big for his age, but this seat seems to be made for a child who is very petite. When he sits on it, his knees go all the way up to the handlebars and bump on them. (it looks as if an adult is sitting on a tricycle) Plus, the actual part the child is supposed to go to the bathroom in is not very deep and so tiny that I think if my son was able to fit on the seat and go in it, once he went it would fill up the seat and wind up getting all over his rear! So, while this is a cute potty I would not recommend it unless your child is extremely petite.

The drill bits are poor quality and difficult to install and use.5. The handle to pull the drill bit into the material is hard to pull. No touch at all using the handle.6.

Like most of the other books published by the United States Pony Club, this one is tops. It not only explains how to bandage your horse but shows you with clear illustrations as well.

Disappointed

I bought this to switch between Dish DVR 622 receiver and a Panasonic upscaling DVD player. It worked great for about a month. Now, it won't switch from DVD to Dish, not even manually, no matter if the DVD is powered off. I unplugged the DVD from it, then it would switch to Dish. I can plug the DVD player back in and when I'm ready to watch a DVD, it will switch to DVD, but it won't switch back to Dish after that. I'm going to get a remote controlled switch to replace it.

Finally, a programming book I can learn from!!

For the last couple years I have aimlessly wandered from one perl book to another and gotten nowhere. Not being a programmer many of the books were just too hard to follow or intoduced too many concepts at one time in a way that made absolutlely no sense. But today, I picked up the llama book and that all changed. After only a couple hours, I had already written some useful (very simple) programs without, and I repeat without having to refer back to the book. Not only that, I cannot wait to read the next chapter, I am totally jazzed. Thank you Randal L. Schwartz.

I have read another of Rhyannon Byrd's books and loved it. This one was just as wonderful. You can feel the chemistry between the two characters and the heat. If you liked "Against the Wall" then you will like this story as well. This was another one that I could not put down until I finished it. Definitely give this one a chance.

Not Perfect, But A Nice Statement of Purpose

As usual, U2 brings out the passion in people, for better or worse. I think that, like "The Fly" and like "Beautiful Day," this is a great declaration of intent. It's not the best song off HTDAAB (wait 'til "Love and Peace or Else" and "Miracle Drug" for that), but it's loud and ferocious. Bono's in great voice here, and the whole sound is very dynamic and uncompromising. You can nitpick the little touches, but just remember that the Beatles had some odd little squiggles and touches on their songs, too.I like the remix of "Vertigo," for the record. I'm sure I'll be hearing it in my local gym non-stop all winter.

Hotel Dusk

Hated It. Was looking for hidden object game, which this was advertised as. I got to 8:40 anyway, but say or do the wrong thing or wrong answer to a person, END GAME. I am done. I am in pain 24/7 and find games that hold my concentration will keep that at a tolerable level for sometimes a very long time. The Forgotten Ruins is a perfect example. I can't wait for DS to come out with more. I ruined my computer filling it with downloads. Don't like most arcade games, but Mahjong and Jewelquest work for me. Any old games or similar ones especially by Spintop would be much appreciated advice from anyone from you or your reviewers. Sincerely, E. Zaharopoulos

This is an Ink Gobbling Cash Bandit

I rarely use a printer. Maybe 25 sheets or less per year and somehow I purchased this printer and all I ever do is pour money into it for ink that I don't even use.The ripoff with this printer is you MUST use 4 ink cartdiges and you cannot simply put in 4 black cartridges if you want. The printer will not function at all and forces you to buy more ink if you want to use it.I had no idea this was the deal or I would never have wasted my money.

As a humor writer, this is funny!

As a humor writer, simply put...this is a very funny book. Why? Because you will find something in it that you can relate to or have lived through that will make you laugh your butt off. Susan has a way of writing about the daily chaos that we all experience in such a way that we can all laugh about it. She puts you, the reader, in her sinking ship and believe me...we are all having a blast! You MUST hear her voice...read it with her ever so charming southern accent. It makes her even more real and funny. It's all about the twang! I look forward to more of Susan's crazy, mess-up adventures.

Not as good as the first three

Ms. Chute is Maine's premier author. Sorry, Stephen. However, in the Snow Man the character development did not match the intensity of the characters from Egypt, Maine. Also, it is hard to believe the entire scenario of Roger hold-up with Kristy and Connie. But, Ms. Chute's style and philosophy are there and that makes it wothwhile. If you are new to Ms. Chute try "The Beans of Egypt, Maine" first. If you've read any of Ms. Chute's other books, don't hesitate to read this one.

This book was assigned to my 8-year-old at school, and I decided to read it myself after he said he was afraid to look at it when he was alone.Even as an adult, I was pretty creeped out by the demon-mother character, and it was completely inappropriate for a second-grader.I think it borders on abusive to give this book to any child younger than 10 or 11.

No support and it does not work

I purchased the retail version of this. It installed fine and then required an upgrade that replaced the installed version. The update came without integrated help files. They had to be downloaded separately. Once installed the software, no matter my attempts would not burn a DVD data disk. I sent an e-mail for help (phone support is by the minute) and am still waiting for them to fix the problem. I sent them an error log file three times before they seemed to get it and then they had me download a new version which did not work either (again with no integrated help files). Despite them having the problem for three weeks now, I still cannot use the software for the purpose I purchased it for.After spending time on the phone with Nero customer support, their response was to use the fee based support to get help.My recommendation is buy CD Creator by Sonic. It works!!

The Body Fat Analyzer is electronic snake oil

I'll give it one star for being kind of pretty. Oh, and it came with batteries. That's where the positives stop. I do not believe it measures anything significant. It seems to be table based. I started by being honest with the device. I gave it my height of 6'1", my weight of 170 and my age of 67, a normal level of activity male. It gave me a reading of 17% body fat. There is no way I could have that much fat.I waited a few minutes and decided to change a couple of variables. I changed my age to 21 and my level of activity to athlete but kept weight and height the same. This time my body fat was 5.7%. That number is probably pretty accurate. To get your correct reading how do you know what age and level of activity to enter?If it actually measured % body fat by electrical impedance alone why would it need any information from you?I'll probably get my money's worth by making friends think it works and that they they have a high percentage of body fat.

Excellent and well-written

I enjoyed this book a great deal. I absolutely loved Ender's Game, and although this is a very different novel from Ender's Game, it is just as riveting. The author really stretches the reader's imagination. His characters look and sound so real they just about jump off the page. I have just two criticisms that prevented me from awarding 5 stars - First, I found the religious pontificating a bit much. And lastly, I found that it took me quite a while to distinguish between the many characters. (Ouanda, Olhado, Quim, Quara, Pipo, Libo and Miro.) Luckily the author provided family trees for the characters in the introduction. Another page that I needed to fold down for reference was the page that defined framling, raman and varelse. I'm afraid I'm hooked on this series, so excuse me, I'm off to buy Xenocide to see what happens next!

Another nice trio of Xander episodes

Like the first volume of this "sub-series," these are truly episodes that focus on the troubled life of Xander Harris. "The Zeppo" is my favorite, mainly because it strikes my funny bone head-on to think that Coredlia actually knows about the Marx Brothers. Actually, I figured that particular allusion went over the heads of the vast majority of the Buffy audience. But it is nice that Joss tosses a bone to us older fans every once in a while. Anyhow, for my money this is one of the better Buffy novelizations.

I bought this book, Burning Bright, with great anticipation, after I read and liked her previous 2 books, Girl with a Perl Earring, and The Lady with the Unicorn. I am most disappointed by this effort. Perhaps, I am thinking, it is not Tracy Chevalier's writing after all? The above mentioned two novels were magical, the language wonderful, while this one is flat, forced, boring, and so on. I tried to read on valiantly but eventually gave up at page 46.

Electro Industrial classic...

The "Like a Prayer" is club classic at its best. Scratchy vocals and a thumping beat give this song more life and speed than Madonna ever intended. However, do not forget the A side of this single "On The Run." The Starry clubbing and Turbo mixes are a great jump start to any Saturday night clubbing. The electro beats and speed of this song will get you going and your body moving. Highly recommended.

The essentials of Cat Stevens' music

Considering that this is the only collection with the gorgeous "Two Fine People", I would have to say that this hits collection is indeed the one to pick up. Every song is filled with the character and tender melodies that Stevens would pour into his work, and I can recall many years ago when I first came across this CD, how the many listens I would give to it would give me peace when times were rather chaotic and stressful. From "Wild World" to "Oh Very Young", this hits collection from Stevens is well-worth the purchase.

Tough going

Reading this novel was slow going. As a guy, I found the lack of action stultifying, and the flashes of humor were too quaint for me to derive any pleasure from them. The answer to the book's primary riddle--who shall Emma marry?--becomes obvious early on, and everything else is just a tedious pairing off until that riddle is expressly answered. There's a bit of local and historical color, but rarely does the narrative rise above the description of, say, a summer outing. Not one of Jane Austen's best.

No Performance Gains at all

I've had this K&N on my Jeep Wrangler for several months now and have found that it really does not give me any gains in fuel economy or horsepower. At best, I've noticed it does make the exhaust system sound a little louder but that does not translate to any performance boost in freeway, street, or off-road driving. To be honest, I didn't buy this system because of any claims by the manufacturer that it would boost fuel or performance, I bought it so I wouldn't have to replace the air filter as often. I live in an extremely dusty area and do a lot of off-roading. The K&N is easy to clean and eliminates the need to constantly buy the stock paper filters. It also seems to filter better than the stock filters. If you're looking for the performance boost that K&N claims then I wouldn't waste your money on this system, if you're just looking for a more efficient air filter over stock then try it but it is expensive for what you get.

i belive that while this may not be the best book you have ever read it is still worth reading. i thought that while the overall plot was better then eragon but it just didnt have that flow to it that made eragon such a huge success. this book does have a few interesting moments like during eragons training and the final battle. but all in all the grand suprise of this book was really predictable in my opinion but still will work out nicely for the next book. i belive that the 3rd book shows promise if he writes it correctly. all in all i am hoping that this book was just building up for the next book. i do not belive it is as good as last but i know many people will like it a lot.
