Sonic Knife
|
This is my second knife. My first was great until the switch got a short in it and couldnt be fixed. It had alot of power , didnt have to charge it veryt often. Used it all the time.So I ordered a new one, because we liked it so much. This one wont even stay charged long enough to slice a loaf of bread, and doest have near the power the other one did. It almost seems like it has been used instead of being a new one.

needs improvement
|
Having taught Kindergarten for 9 years I can say that this video is cute but not as good as previous Leap Frog videos. The Letter Factory is a much better presentation of the letters with emphasis on letter sounds (needed to learn to read) vs. letter names. If you buy only one leap frog video I would recommend the Letter Factory video.

fills in many gaps

I have read practically every jazz history book that was published in the past 50 years. Some, such as the seminal "Blues People", do a great job of exposing the socio - political aspects of the music and its makers. Others did a thorough job of detailing the events that were connected to the music. Gioia is the first that I know of to give as much attention to the social aspects as well as the musical and chronological aspects. I teach a Jazz and Politics course in the university (PoliSci dept) and Gioia's book helped me in some of the issues I needed to raise. It is still not the ultimate book - this has to written, but it is a big step forward in Jazz writing and a must for every student of the music.

Perfect Time? No Time!

Makes good coffee quickly, but forget the atomic clock unless you live on a mountain top with Colorado in Clear view (where the signal originates). There is no way to manually set it either--as confirmed by their customer service rep. And, if the clock doesn't set, there is no way to use the automatic timers for brew start, etc.

very poor design
|
This thing is a major pain. The carafe leaks all over. The filter basket door won't stay closed. The coffee bean holder and the water tank are too close together. You spill beans no telling where stuff goes. I'm retiring it after three months of trial and going back to Capresso.

The title says it all. The author has created the closest thing to a SUPER STORE for businesses to grow. Anyone with a mind developed by the greatest minds of all time, mentored by his own father, is certainly worth listening to and reading.

Does not stick, not very durable
|
I bought this thinking it would be a travel toy for visits to Nana/Papa, etc. It doesn't work for that as it is 12" x 12" and so does not fit in any travel bag, and the colorforms do not stick at all. As a result, they fall out of the box pretty easily and you certainly can't play in the car. They also move around when bumped, so they don't stay put very well on the picture. After a few times of playing with this, the colors started to come off the stickers a bit, did not seem very durable.That said my 2 1/2 year old daughter enjoyed playing this, and it was good for talking about what to wear on different weather days. Lasted longer than the average sticker chart, but did not live up to my memory of colorforms.

I was very disappointed with this book, having been a practicing witch since 14 and yes we are now in a 24,000 year sun cycle. working with the sun doing magic can be very powerful and liberating. this book offered nothing new and to me was just another book filled with new age nonsense.

Use your own judgement, study scripture for your ethics...
|
Excerpt from the book, Chapter 2, under the heading "Clergy Characters", page 52:"A person of homosexual orientation who was living a life of sexual abstinence could make a remarkably good candidate for ministry. Living as we do in a society that elevates a person's sexual orientation as the supreme mark of humanity, it is countercultural, radical and downright faithful to encounter a person, more disciplined than myself, who is willing to forego worship of Eros in order to serve the church."I would advise a close study of God's Word before believing the opinions of man.

not even close to what I was expecting from monster.granted it was inexpensive but I have already replaced it with the one by accessory power for like $25.The constant "hum" and the way it picks up engine noise makes it very annoying on any channel.instant relief when the accessory power one showed up.It's on/off button is also very handy because my outlet is not controlled by the ignition.keep in mind that none of the fm transmitters are great but just rather exceptable.

Not at all as described-very disappointed
|
I purchased this gun for my 5 year old grandson for Christmas. He is very much into hunting and I was expecting a realistic looking gun (in the picture it is hard to tell because you can't zoom in). I thought that since it was wood and metal it would be of good quality. The trigger will not pull. Description states that it uses roll caps which I cannot imagine how you could do so the way this gun is made. It is cheap painted wood and the ends are painted gray which does not even match the camo paint on the stock. When it arrived my first instinct was that I was going to put this thing right back in the box and return it. To my chagrin, the shipping was going to be almost half of what the toy cost so we are keeping it at my house for the kids to play with but that is the only reason. It was also ridiculously overpriced for the quality.

Spectacular sweetener
|
I do the low carb thing, and finding a low carb sweetener that isn't full of sugar (maltodextrin) is an enormous hassle. I used to lug around liquid splenda, but I've found these pakcets to be much more convenient -- and they're a better sweetener as well. (Taste seems closer to sugar to me, and you can go sweeter without getting any weird tastes than you can with splenda).The only downside is that Amazon at the moment doesn't have these on much of a discount. When I originally purchased my first 1,000 count bag, it was a lot cheaper than the current price (which is close to list price).To those of you who complain there's not enough material per packet -- I have no idea why you'd want more filler. Each packet has the same sweetening power as a packet of sugar. And isn't the idea here to take in fewer calories?

FAILED AFTER 15 MONTHS
|
The performance of this oven was just OK and it's not a cheap oven. Then, after 15 months, a part of the top heating coil just stopped heating so you can only toast on the left side of the oven. I've had cheap ovens last much longer. As pointed out by other reviewers, it's just too expensive to repair one of these units out of warranty, so it's just pretty much junk.

Too big, too loose, not a good swoosh
|
I was looking to replace the net that came with my basketball hoop. That one had survived about 5 years of year-round exposure. This net from Spalding installed easily and appears to be constructed with decent material. However, when "testing" it I noticed it seems longer than other nets I see. It also seems too loose (wide or big at bottom). The ball just kind of goes right through it. I was hoping it would grip it for a moment but the opening seems very large. The bottom should be narrower than it is. I also don't get a satisfying sound on swish shots. I was hoping for a more solid 'net' sound but it's just kinda nothing, since the ball pretty much goes straight through it. Hopefully the sun and some rain will shrink it or something. It's not horrible. It is a basketball net, but I will likely replace this one soon with something shorter and tighter at the bottom.

This video has: ads for their other videos, interviews with people on the street as to whether or not they have done anything "seductive" (keep in mind one guy says that being friends with someone is seductive), and it shows couples pretending the act natural while doing things that really aren't very seductive. Oh and they spend a large portion of time copulating. Not worth buying.

Would leave negative stars if I could. Seller says color may vary, but what they need to say is TOY may vary. I knew what the toy looked like as I was replacing one (and the one I have is EXACTLY what is pictured) and what arrived is NOT what is shown in the photo. DO NOT order from this seller, unless you are ok buying a surprise package! They do not ship the airplane toy they advertise! And the toy that arrived is TERRIBLE! It's a piece of junk. Not worth a 1/3 of what they are charging.

In every way, Incense, Crafting and Use of Magickal Scents by Carl F. Neal, provides a wealth of information and instruction!He makes a very complicated subject easy to understand. I'm usually not good at learning how to do complicated things from books, but the style of the writer helped me change that misunderstanding about myself. Yes, it was a joy to read and learn and do.. with this bookIt's not just a "how to' book, it gives readers... a sense of reverence for incense and the making... that adds to the energy of the whole experience of actually making incense yourself!The Author's style of writing and knowledge makes this book a rare and delightful jewel for any magical collection.I highly recommend it!

What's Up with Visioneer Products
|
I'm frustrated with Visioneer's lack of quality testing of their software installation. They bill themselves as easy to use and install. I just utilized their "tradeup" program since their older 7620 model does not operate with Windows XP or Windows 2000 (a travesty in and of itself). They gave me a 25% discount to trade up to the 9020. Just tried to install but it indicates a dll is missing. I've now spent an hour attempting to find and install the missing dll. A visit to their website is now rivaling Microsoft's in it's complexity troubleshooting--an only offers M-F support. This is unconscionable for a major supplier of scanners.

Doesn't Matter At All- THIS IS GARBAGE!
|
After reaching the pinnacle with the powerful Velvet Rope album Janet has now sunk to just another one of those no-brainer R&B acts. This song and that horrifying catastrophe known as All For You proves my statement. There are no standout sounds, no soul, and virtually no talent put into this single. The remixes don't save this garbage. Janet should team up with producer Roland Orzabal of Tears For Fears and do a techno\rock album instead of this lifeless barrel clicking music.

Played this on a friends machine - a dozen or so games.THe game has a really nice feel to it. The lower levels can let you win without performing obvious blunders and that is the one thing that Chessmaster is sadly lacking. This game actually feels like playing a human.Two gripes -1. the graphics are a bit ordinary (2d mode)2. If you get checkmated or checkmate/stalemate or lack of material you cannot choose to 'undo' !!!! the game just ends !The second point is really annoying because I primarily use chess programs to learn

hilarious
|
The reason to get this one, aside from the indispensible interview with Bobby Beausoleil (a man coping beautifully after being railroaded by the media and the system into doing life for a crime commited as a teenager), is for its entertainment value. At least three of these articles--the letters to Anton LaVey, "Mr. Awesome" and the convention of female fans of a new genre of pop fiction are tears-running-down-the cheeks hilarious. I don't undrestand why anyone would promote this stuff as an important cultural document of some sort, if any such exist; the agenda here is laughs, and plenty of 'em.

Reduced quality

Where is the quality from the last game Final Fantasy VIII?I mean the game doesn't interest me at all in the beginning, it is too manga and comic relief inspired, and has no real seriousness about it. This makes this a less "hardcore" experience than the Final Fantasy 8.I miss the depth in the characters, and I also miss the complex story that was so evident in 7, and 8. Bad game! I just hope they increase the dark feel of the next game, because this one was too goodie goodie for my taste.

Good story, not particularly well written
|
I first read this in college for an English class and it really caught my imagination. Overall, the basic plot line of the book is very interesting and thought provoking, though the writing is not what I would call first rate. I like the fact that the book focuses on the fate of civilization in the wake of an overwhelming catastrophe without resorting to the seemingly inevitable appearance of zombies or other un-dead as is the case in so many other post-apocalyptic stories. I also like that the story balances optimism and pessimism, rather than going totally pessimistic a la 'The Road'.

NOT worth the hassle!!

I bought these bottles because of all the recommendations I have read. I wish I didn't. They leak all the time. No matter how tight (or loose) I screw the cap no, they always leak. Also, because my son's mouth has to open so wide to fit the large nipple, the milk is constantly dripping out the side of his mouth and down his chin. The only good thing about this bottle is that he doesn't have a problem switching back and fourth between nursing and these bottles. However, I would still recommend you try something else first.

Boring, Songs Sound Terrible!
|
We were so looking forward to this game, totally disappointed. Not worth the money. The songs sound terrible, NOT by the original singers, not even by good singers, tempos are off...YUCK! How are you suppose to boogie to that?? Bad graphics, very few characters to choose from, the dancing is annoying. Just a bunch of random moves while you move the controller back and forth. Dull. My children, ages 9 and 10, do like this game, but really dislike the songs, and they unlocked everything really fast. I have no idea how anyone is giving this game more than 2 or 3 stars. At $60, it's totally overpriced for what you're getting. Plus the loading is really slow.

HERESY
|
This "bible" is not a bible at all, but is authored by Satan,the father of lies, and is the heretical imaginations of a deceived mind, who, in pride, has re-written portions of God's Word to suit her carnal pride. The title of the book is deceptive, and could lead people into the deception that she has fallen prey to. She is very deceived, and is not "born again", otherwise she would recognize the truth about the Trinity, and also she is not Biblically well-read, or she would recognize that Jesus Himself said "I will send the Holy Spirit and HE WILL LEAD YOU INTO ALL TRUTH." NOT "SHE"!!! Poor woman...may God have mercy on her soul, or she will go where all unbelievers go...to the lake of fire.Linnie Robinson (a Christian)

Catfish and Loachs love this product.

My bumblebee Catfish and Gold Dojo Loach love these Tubifex worms. Although the Bumblebee Catfish is a nocturnal fish, rarely seen for more than a second in the daytime before hiding, it will leave its cave as soon as it gets a hint of the worms in the water no matter what time of day. Whereas my Dojo Loach happily collects these warms on the bottom of my tank, even making his way to the surface to gobble up mass amounts when he is hungry. Overall I like this product a lot and will definitely be buying it again in the future. But i can easily feed 2 fish with such a small fraction of worms this food might last me over a year.

Outdated Non-Functioning No Support

Eidos Interactive doesn't support this game. It won't run on advanced graphics cards. "This is a known issue with Salt Lake 2002 for the PC. The Nvidia GeForce 4/FX/6 and ATI Radeon 9000 series of video cards came out after the game was released and unfortunately they are not compatible. Since the game's developer, ATD, went out of business, there will not be any fixes made for this game. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the incompatibility."I installed it on an earlier computer and it is just a lame outdated game. I only bought it because there are so few skiing games available in the USA. I may try to return it, but feel like I should have researced it better. I am new to computer games so maybe I'll just take the loss and be more careful next time.

A fun, entertaining book that (by the way) has great recipes

When I opened this book, my first laugh came immediately upon seeing the photo of Livia Soprano in the kitchen on the inside cover spread. The rest of the book is great humor interspersed with authentic Italian recipes. I was pleasantly surprised at the large number of recipes included. Obviously the humor and entertainment value depends largely upon the reader being a Soprano's fan, but if you are a fan, I highly recommend this book.

Worst Controls Ever

I've played dozens of PC and console graphical RPGs, and this one has the absolute worst graphical interface I've ever seen. I bought it because of the good reviews, but shortly after installing , I quit struggling with the controls that aren't logical, don't make good use of the mouse and create a feeling of motion sickness from the bobbing screen views and uninstalled it in disgust. What a waste. Doesn't matter how great the content is if you can't play it effectively.

I doubt these guys are the saviors of rock and roll. However, the Strokes have been a breath of fresh air amid the TRL Britney/50 Cent/Justin music. Yes, it's all been done before...but if you are going to copy the style of a former band, why NOT sound like the Ramones, VU or the Clash? It's fun, it's energetic, and it beats the hell out of 98% of the crap you hear on the radio. So just enjoy it! It's a good CD.

A for concept, F for lousy song writing
|
I love the first two releases by these guys. I've tried to listen to this new CD several times, but it's not the change in style I can't handle. I had read about a year ago the band planned to go for some kind of Bob Dylan sound, so I expected a change. I'm OK with a change style, but the songs on this CD just aren't good. I hoped the CD would grow on me because I loved their previous releases, but the songs are just boring. I believe these guys spent too much effort on making this CD sound like a vintage release and not enough time on writing good songs.

This is great. Best verb drill book I've ever used. I'm giving it 4 stars just because I wish there are more exercises.

The Window
|
Poorly translated. Doesn't match poetic intent nor tempo.Translation is a bit of an word for word english repetition of text rather than concentrating on the poetry. After all it is poetry that is being translated. Without knowledge of the Hebrew, poems appear very bland and soul-less.

It is a long time since i read a book that slow and boring.But now i know a lot about the streets and hotel rooms in Washington D.C.I also know how to operate an old VHS tape-recorder.Everything is just so slow and detailed that u will probably go to sleep very fast.I did.

Awesome concert, reasonable dvd
|
The DVD is a registration of a series of concerts of Mana in the years 2002 and 2003. The concerts are great and there is a lot of effort put in the whole production. Unfortunately the DVD covers only ten songs and a lot of extra's we don't need. The English subtitles are simply crappy. The producers of this DVD surely embarrass the band, which put up such an amazing concert.

Discoloring, dusting, sticking, definitely disappointing. Sept. 2012
|
I bought Farberware 50049 Classic Stainless Steel 15-Piece Cookware Set September 2012. Within 2 times in the dishwasher (description says the set is dishwasher safe!) the exterior of the skillets became discolored and are "dusting". That is, there is a dark gray powder like residue on the outsides of the pans each time I wash. I don't know if this is oxidization but it's a problem. It's filthy and I have completely lost confidence in the skillets. Also I have noticed a discoloration in the form of spotting or mottling inside at the bottoms of the sauce pans and they are not nearly as nonstick as my original set of Farberware Cookware I bought some 20 years ago. In fact food sticks to them almost as much as it does my 20yr old set. I have had them just short of 30 days so will be returning the entire set.

Understated and long-lasting chills
|
It's been several years since I first saw this movie and it still gives me chills. This movie, in the hands of a less ambitious director, could easily have sunk into laughable camp. Instead it provides a subtle and eerily realistic portrait (hence the title!) sans irony. Henry is like the mechanic in your town who seems a little creepy but whom you assume is probably harmless. He's an accessible character, which makes his easy descent into horrific violence so terrifying and creepy. A must see!

Better than conventional tweezers, but not extraordinary

This item is worth the money, because it's quite an improvement over drug store tweezers I've had. But it doesn't pull out the very fine hairs by the roots.

Awful movie
|
This was a really terrible movie. Can't remember the last movie I saw that was this bad. Save yourself some time and skip this.There was no character development. It made no sense that it took police this long to respond to a verified bomb threat in a NYC skyscraper. The relationships between the characters are shallow and really meaningless. Their attitudes change constantly. And the ending...well don't hold your breath. There's no suspense. And really no ending...I don't review on Amazon often, but I do frequently read and trust reviews. Somehow this movie got pretty good reviews here and I felt someone needed to balance it out. If I could give it 0 stars I would.

It sucks, and not in a good way
|
I've had this vacuum for about 6 months, and have used it about once a week. Small home, just two of us. The vacuum keeps tripping itself off, and on this last occasion, it appears I can't get it to reset. Headed off to the repair shop now.

no battery life, tech support are idiots
|
You can't register it w/o downloading a browser plugin. Said plugin won't install. FAQ says you need new drivers. New drivers don't install. Tech support looks for a familiar word in your complaint and emails a cut and paste response based on that one word.Oh, and the battery is only good for a few minutes.

Fraggles ROCK!
|
What's not to love about the Fraggles? Putting this DVD in is like visiting with old friends. I love the characters, I love the humor (much of it more suited to old kids rather than young kids), I love the lessons taught. The quality of the DVDs is excellent. For those of us who watched this with our children, to those who never saw the show before...buy it...you'll love it!

Shirley MacLaine's Best Movie?
|
This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The characters are unlikeable except for Charity's two friends. The songs are far too long and I had to fast forward through most of them because they were so dull. I was especially disappointed with Big Spender because I love the song and expected a spectacular dance number from Bob Fosse and all they did was stand there draped over the bar. The only redeeming factor was that Sammy Davis Jr. was in it. He's awesome even though the song was fairly stupid. This was my first Shirley MacLaine film and on the back it said that Sweet Charity was her best movie. I have no desire to see her other movies then.

Le Tour Du Monde
|
I chose this title after the anniversary of Jules Verne's birth was celebrated with a "google" icon. I don't believe that I have ever read this JV tale before this reading. I am not quite sure what to make of this story. Certainly it has inspired many adaptations over the years as have many of Verne stories. Phileas Fogg is a hero unlike any others in my experience of reading. He has absolute faith and his stoicism is a bit off putting. How we come to root for him in his quest is somewhat of a mystery until an incident (no spoiler here) midway through the book. I will also not give away the surprise at the conclusion of the voyage. Though in this day I would not expect that modern readers will be surprised. Jules Verne does foreshadow the ending quite a bit.Thank you Kindle for making this and other Verne titles available.

Interesting

The book was pretty good as I recall (it was a while back when I read the book). If I remember right, the book seemed liked it ended TOO abruptly (Mazer left 'ya hanging). But after searching on Amazon I see why: There's a Sequel. It was A good book overall.P.s. If I recall corectly, There was some mild profanity in it.

Twice the price of the competition, and sold by Amazon.Why? Because it is the only one that shows up in the initial search, and buyers overlook the fact that other prices exist.

Evolution of a great band!!!!
|
I speak again, of giving a real if not honest, review of music, unlike others, who just explain why something does not bode well for their own tastes!!! This album represents the Starship very well for the time. It was the 80's for crying out loud!!! All the seeds, once again are there, even without Paul Kantner in the band. Craig Chaquico's playing really shines on songs like "Tommorrow Doen't Matter Tonight", "Rock Myself to Sleep" and "Desperate Heart". The vocals, what can be said, that you can't tell, by just listening. Mickey Thomas and Grace's voices fit nicely together. Mickey is blamed for the Starship's commercial direction, which is just plain stupid!!! Was "miracles", from Jefferson Starship's 1975 album, Red Octopus not commercial? Hardly! Besides, it was Paul's idea to get Mickey in the band in 1978, anyway. So he and other people should just realize, that the band was just in the process of evolution, like everything else is in the universe!!!

Disappointing
|
After being very pleased with an earlier model of this vacuum (I used it so much that it eventually wore out), I thought the more powerful 15.6 V model would be even better. What a disappointment. They have change the air flow, filter, collection arrangement in such a way that this unit has very poor suction. It drives me nuts. About the only thing it is good for is dust on a smooth surface (i.e. it will not drag fluff off carpet). I wouldn't waste my money on this one. What a pity. I have had several of these hand held vacuums that were really useful - this is NOT one of them.

Impossible.

I like having knot information. This is not knot information, it's knot gymnastics. I agree with the other reviewers - these knots are incredibly complicated and without being raised on the waterfront as a daily fisherman, you probably will never learn these and use them regularly. I suggest the PROKNOT series as a replacement. Those knots are simpler and don't require insane finger contortions.

real scholarship
|
I've seen this book around and finally decided to take a chance on it. I was not disappointed. There's so much garbage being published about Tolkien now because of the high popularity from the films, but thank Valinor, this book is one of the real ones. Very clear organization, hard evidence directly from the Tolkien writings, a specific topic successfully argued in terms appropriate to the fields of comparative mythology and sociology.

Comfortable Woodworkers Respirator
|
This is a good value. It's comfortable and fits well. The fit is different from most respirators I've used in that it doesn't cover the chin, but seals above the chin under the lower lip. This helps it seal better over facial hair. The drawback is that it tends to flop open when bending over unless it is tightened considerably more. I've been able to find a happy medium. It is much better filtering than the white particle masks and lighter weight than the bulkier two cartridge respirators. My sinuses and lungs are much clearer at the end of a day of sanding. I don't normally write reviews, but this product is distinct enough it deserves recognition.

Where is MY Jewel?
|
I was so disappointed to see Jewel in this manner. This is not the honest, beautiful, talented, speak to your soul, singer and brilliant songwriter that I love. This is a teeny bopper sellout. Unfortunatly B. Speers has more tallent than this CD has. I believe she will lose so many of her devoted fans if she continues on like this....and the new fans that she may attract because of the teeny bopper pop sound will never understand or appreciate the true Jewel. I'm so sorry that she felt the need to cave into the pressure to sell albums.....the one thing she did sell is her soul.....I can't believe she sold out. :(
