Not only is this a charming story with a happy ending, but the illustrations are simply perfect. I bought it for my grandson after borrowing it from the library.

This is a short review because I have not received an issue yet. It looks like my wait has been shorter than many but 3 months and counting? Come on. Amazon find a vendor that can deliver and in the meantime give me my money back.

One of the best investments I ever made. Works well without a cable bill each month. Excellent reception. Very satisfied with this product. I would definitely purchase another in time. Thank you Amazon.

Have you heard of Chutzpah?
|
And I actually don't mean the kind that it takes to put out an album like this... I mean the group CHUTZPAH. Go look/listen to their albums. Eponymous by Chutzpah is great. Fun, Jewish Hip Hop with strength and a 'tude.If you want your Jewish hip hop - straight up beautiful... find Ta-Shma's Come Listen.If you want Jewish and classic/funny... try You Don't Have to Be Jewish.Enjoy!

Whale sounds
|
This music is pretty intelligent, but not very interesting. The forgettable melodies hardly connect with the complex rhythm lines; on only one or two occasions on the cd satisfying harmonies come across.I bought this together with Nitin Sawhney's "Beyond Skin", which is an incomparably better cd - Sawhney plugs in nicely with earlier work from Portishead, Hooverphonic, and even the Roots. Karsh Kale however, seems to pay tribute to Jean Michel Jarre's "Waiting for Cousteau".During yoga, my teacher wallpapers her lesson with a whale sounds-cd. When I do yoga at home, Karsh Kale is a neat substitute for that.

A young reader
|
I'm ahead of my time with readings, i never liked the teenie bobber books, and after seeing the bone collector, i had to read the book. I was amazed with Jeffery deaver's writings, and I was beyond happy To find that he had a series (sadly enough, i can read well, but i cant spell to save my life) for licon rhyme. I have no words to express how I feel about the coffin dancer, except it was even better than the bone collector, and I suggest everyone that likes suspense, twists and turns, and mystery to read this book

I like UFC again!
|
If any of you fans out there are feeling like I am lately and just a little disappointed with most Pay Per Views, this is a nice refreshment. It really picks all the most exciting fights of the year like Chris Leben and Akiyama and also segways lots of fights with brief recaps and reviews of significant things that happened during the year. There are also a ton of good fights on each bonus section of the DVD. Good stuff fight fans

Come on people...

...it's "The Ledge." Having grown up in the S.F. Bay Area, and having been exposed to "Retro-rocket Back To Earth" at an early age and having seen "The Ledge" lurking around Streetlight Records in San Jose, I can honsetly say that you aren't missing much here. The Ledge is as awful as he's always been. The Godfather of psychobilly? Hardly. You want to go for the genuine article, get ANYTHING by Hasil Adkins. He is/was the epitome of the "psycho" in billy (if you are going to stick with that term anyway). The Ledge is a clear-cut example of someone ripping off Hasil. Too bad there are those who know what a hack The Ledge actually is. You want something that is quality? Get ANYTHING by Ronnie Dawson.At any rate, do yourself a favor and avoid this one. It bl*ws as badly as The Ledge himself.

1950's Rock N Roll Never Sounded Like This
|
This is by far the worst CD collection I have ever purchased. After taking off the cellophane wrapper (by then unable to return for a refund) in very small print on the bottom of the box it was noted that songs with an asterisk (*) were original recordings. The (*) appeared 8 times only--out of 100 songs! Note on the front of the box it reads, "Original Artists". If these are truly THE original artists of these songs, I need my hearing checked. You certainly fooled me when I purchased this collection! Buyer beware!

MAIDEN MUST BE JOKING !
|
Call it lust for money, or just a joke, wherever you want, but Maiden really dropped the ball in this CD. I'm a huge fan, always have been, so I keep wondering how they were capable of releasing two unproduced albuns like these, with no special mood in them (contrary to the amazing "LIve After Death"?. Janick Gers, as always, drops the ball destroying all good Adrian Smith solos. Dickinson is not at his best. The only good thing is that MAiden's repertoire is so good, that you end liking the record a little bit.

Good service but poor product
|
The vendor of these Air Force style sunglasses offers very good and responsive customer service, but the product itself is not high quality.When he sent the sunglasses the described case was not included. I contacted the vendor, and he readily and quickly gave a partial refund which was most appreciated.What marred my experience was the fragility of the sunglasses, which soon broke during normal use after only weeks.

Made the mistake of buying this..will return
|
This has to be the worst Microsoft made piece of hardware I've used in recent memory. The tuner keeps going in and out as the weakest stations mess with the signal. I've used the IPOD Belkin RF transmitter with good results and this product is NOWHERE near the quality of that. I will now go with the Belkin product and hope that it works better.Buyer beware...this product doesn't work as advertised.

This is the same DVD you get for free with recent CD release
|
I was looking forward to getting this DVD however it is unfortunately the same DVD you get for free with a recent Greatest Hits "King of the Road" CD/DVD release that you can buy for $5. I wish I knew this before ordering it.There is next to no Roger Miller footage on here, it's mostly a standard documentary with Roger's name inserted once in a while. I'm guessing this company did a blanket country music documentary and uses 99% of the same footage for a wide variety of artists.If you are interested in knowing more about Roger Miller, be sure to check out the book "Ain't Got No Cigarettes - Memories of Music Legend Roger Miller" available here on Amazon.Hopefully someday someone will release some of the amazing footage that is available out there from his TV show and many TV appearances.

When I first took the SAT, I got a 650 on the writing section (yuck!). However, when I bought this book and diligently went through each problem set and studied all of the material in it, I got an 800 when I retook. So, I'll spare you the long winded details -- this book produces results. Buy it!

A childs Review
|
I was forced to read this book in nineth grade ela. It was the most boring pointless book that was ever published. It is about a boy named Jethro who is a farmer in the civil war . Jethero ends up joining the army and goes to war..... The end. I wont tell you what happens at the end but this book is written in old english and does not portray childrens thinking well. It is definately a bad book. The story is bad and so is the writing so the only reason we should be reading this book is to know an example of how not to write .

unsettling film by Brillante Mendoza
|
I like Brillante Mendoza films because of their realism. His films pull back the curtain on a side of the Philippines that most would not want the world to see.I remember watching a news story from the Philippines last year about police raiding a theater such as the one depicted in this story. The setting for the movie is an old movie house that has seen better days.The owner is on the verge of bankruptcy and the once large movie house (that is the setting for this story) is deteriorating. The only thing keeping the place open is the owner's ability to borrow money.The main customers are gays and call boys who use the theater for anonymous sexual rendevous.

5 Stars all the way!!!
|
Great Game! May be a little short but its very fun. I find myself playing it over and over with friends and by myself. The only this is that it is short, but then again so was the Fellowship and Two Towers. I recommend buying it now that the price has dropped. Great game!!! Online play isn't to bad, I would recommend it to any Lord of the Ring fan. And the selection of characters is great. Your not forced to be one character. The graphics are good. Opponents pretty smart... The only con I have about the game is that the characters dont move there lips when they talk, and you have to watch each movie clip. Gets a little annonying... OVERALL - GREAT GAME!!!

Wasn't very impressed
|
The writing style was good, but after reading Twilight, the vampire in this story, Christopher, paled in comparison to Edward Cullen. I mean, come on...Christopher can barely lift a box of books because he's so weak from 'transmorgrifying'. Maybe some readers will enjoy this type of vampire story, but I prefer the strong, nonsleeping vampires myself.

Money can't buy talent, Miss Hilton
|
This is one of those "Where's-the-zero-star-option?" CD's. It sucks. It's nothing but a huge ego trip for Paris (Fightin' Over Me, which is even worse than it sounds, is a good example). Paris is famous for simply being born, it's not like she actually does anything to deserve that fame, or her fortune. So, to make more money, she puts out a crappy dance-pop CD that makes Jessica Simpson look like Joni Mitchell. Of course, Jessica Simpson still sucks. It's about time Paris did something MEANINGFUL with her money. I mean, I'm a teenager who makes twenty dollars a week, and I still gave my weekly pay for Katrina on more than one occasion. What about Paris? Chances are she said, "Oh, that's horrible" in a not-too-convincing voice and went off to get a pedicure or implants or whatever. Even gangsta rap is better. Even alternative rock is better. Even frickin' death-metal is better, okay? This sucks.

Making Something Out Of Nothing.
|
I have been a fan of Meshuggah since the Contridictions Collapse and None era. And with every album they release I am always amazed. I loved the first release of Nothing, and the remake to me is better in so many ways.Jens Kidman opted for the Catch 33 style of voice and the 8-string guitars make a huge difference rather than the low tuning of the 7-string in the previous.They also opted for the Drum Kit From Hell programming which was also introduced on Catch-33. Rumor has it that the reason they remade this album was to give it the punch the 8-string guitars deliver. The original Nothing was the album to introduce the 8-string guitars but due to the reason of the guitars held up in manufacturing and label deadlines the original was recorded with low tuned 7-string guitars.

Does not work!

I had the same problem as a previous reviewer. The camera stopped working pretty much the same day as I got it. It turned off randomly by itself, with the lense cover open. However, since the lense was open, the camera would not turn back on until after very many tries. Then, it would only turn on in review mode, but as soon as you switch it to camera mode, it would shut off again. I thought my camera was defective so Amazon.com sent me a replacement. The replacement camera did the same thing!I have to note that when it actually did work, it was easy to use, and the pictures were great. I just wish that it worked properly.

This is a data disk, not the book
|
This product is not the Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences as it is portrayed here on Amazon; it is instead an almost useless data disk. The integer sequences are there all right, in lexicograhic order; but they are completely unidentified (except for a code number keyed to the book)! In other words, without the book this very expensive diskette is useless.Basically I consider this to be false advertising. Do not buy it unless you already have the book and want a machine-readable, searchable copy of the sequences.

Guns 'N' Roses, "Appetite For Destruction", 1987
|
Guns N Roses started out in 1985 in California and in that same year recorded a live EP. Than in 1986 they got a record deal with Geffen and recorded what would be known as, "Appetite For Destrucion". Perhaps one of the greatest heavy metal albums of all time and by far the best GNR album there is out there. Every song on here is just great. A true classic album.All the songs sound really good and all the instruments do too. Some key tracks on here are, Welcome To The Jungle, Sweet Child O Mine, Paradise City, and many more.1. Welcome To The Jungle 5/5 stars2. Its So Easy 5/5 stars3. Nightrain 5/5 stars4. Outa Get Me 5/5 stars5. Mr. Brownstone 5/5 stars6. Paradise City 5/5 stars7. My Michelle 5/5 stars8.

Hans's story with the game
|
When I first got this game my folks got me a game boy to play it on. And you see I really liked it after I got it, it was my number one favorite toy. I loved to play it a lot. There are 4 worlds in all, I loved the way it had these little secret passages that you could explore. And who knows? There might be some more passages or bonus features! And then I bought this new game that for a while I liked it better. But then after another while it turned out that I started getting interested in it again. And right now I like both games just as much. In fact, I think I probably play this game more than the other game.

Koffi Means Business!
|
Koffi Olomide's Orchestre Quartier Latin's "Force de Frappe" retains the flavor that made the band famous. Recall the days of "Magie," "Andrada," "Papa Plus" and "Noblesse Oblige," among others. The group's animations and instrumentation represents the best of African dance music. Although Koffi retains his original identity, clearly his current work shares a lot with other contemporary catchy dancable tunes popularized in Kinshasa and Paris. Latin Quartier's current work is fresh and is an indication that musically, the Congo has weathered the harsh realities of war to bring happinnes to many of us living far away from Africa. In "Force De Frappe," Koffi has not let his fans down. An excellent adddition to African-Latin heritage!

Not your typical, mellow Zamphir
|
If you're looking for the easy, romantic music that Zamphir is known for then you should avoid this CD. This contains some of the most nerve-wracking, jittery music I have ever heard - guaranteed to set your teeth on edge. If you're looking for something that will give you the sensation you've just consumed a full pot of espresso or a case of Jolt cola then this would be what you're looking for. Otherwise, get one his other albums. I give it one star because it was cheap enough so I didn't mind shelving it after just one play.

Syruppy-sweet fluff
|
I will have to agree with the others here that were very disappointed with this release. This collection of meaningless Pop fluff has no heart and no soul. I bought this CD based entirely on my knowledge of his sound from "Lie To Me" and "Wonder This World". I'm not really sure that this CD was made by the same person! Light-weight ballads and weak attempts at R&B.One thing is for sure! This will not wind up in my Blues collection. I'm giving it to my daughters and they can listen to it along with the likes of Britney and Christina and Aaron Carter.

absolutely beautiful story
|
Christopher Castellani's debut novel is a love story in a time of war. Castellani's gift is for storytelling, and his prose is so precise you can smell the dusty air of Santa Cecilia in every sentence. He's so at ease telling the story of Vito's love for Maddalena, that you fall in love with both of them. Castellani has a great sense for story and a great ear for rhythmic prose. I couldn't help wishing against all my 21st Century common sense, for love to work out. This is writing that will stand the test of time. A Kiss From Maddalena, from the title to the conclusion is as measured and suddenly surprising as life itself. If you are a reader who loves to be lost in the tale, here's the first book on your new list.

A must-read for all patriots
|
In 'Supreme Injustice', Dershowitz does a wonderful job of explaining exactly why the USSC decision in Bush v Gore was based, not on the law or the constitution, but instead on the partisan desires of five right-wing justices. I would recommend this book even to those who've already read Vincent Bugliosi's excellent book 'The Betrayal of America'. ALL patriots should read this book, especially in light of the fact that the media-sponsored vote count in Florida has shown that Al Gore did indeed receive more votes in that state, and the CRC report offers ironclad proof that widespread voter disenfranchisement occurred. The wrong man is in the White House as a result of the downright criminal USSC decision, and even Mr. Bush's supporters should be open-minded enough to learn the facts.

Broadcast - Haha Sound
|
Broadcast seem to continue their angular pop fashions with Ha Ha Sound, their second full album. Even though their melodies are as slanted as ever, this album isn't quite as compelling as The Noise Made By People. "Pendulum," the first single, doesn't quite make the impact that it should -- it sounds more like Ladytron than the Broadcast we know and love. "Before We Begin" is Burt Bacharach on acid; "Man Is Not a Bird" and "Lunch Hour Pope" are both similarly peppy. Contrast that to the percussive assault of "Black Umbrellas" and "Distorsion." Their playful experimentalism is definitely still at work, and though the tracks are of excellent quality (miles better than most pop music out there), the songs on Ha Ha Sound don't feel as strong as some of their earlier work.

I first saw this movie on the opening day and I was awestruck. M. Night Shamylan is a pure genious. i loved Sixth Sense and Unbreakable and I had to see Signs, and believe me I was well satisfied. WARNING: This movie is very freaky, just like 6 sense, and I have been afraid to go into a dark area because of this movie. But i loved it. Your heart will pump nonstop through the whole movie and you will jump with excitement/fear during the whole movie. I am getting freaked out just writing this review. Whatever, to keep this short, YOU MUST SEE THIS MOVIE... Pay 8 bucks to see it, and what the heck, pay and extra 50 bucks for some popcorn and a coke!

Good Product Good Price
|
I purchased the JBuds Hi-Fi Noise-Reducing Ear Buds to use with my iTouch. The ear phones that came with the unit were terribly uncomfortable. The JBuds fit comfortably in my ears and provide very good sound quality. They are labeled correctly when they state they are "noise-reducing" because although they may reduce outside noise to some degree, they don't do it very well. I didn't need something that blocked outside noise completely (I use my iTouch primarily to listen to music as I go to sleep) so I wasn't worried about it too much but those wanting that feature should purchase a different product. For the price, they serve my purposes and are a much better quality product than the iTouch ear phones made by Apple!

Great taste, perfect for quick hunger pangs!
|
I use this after a gym workout, at that moment when my energy is waning and I am getting a blood sugar drop, before reaching food!!! It is the perfect taste and consistency. A Clif Bar is too much work and too filling for those times. I can't stand the gels. I have also used this before a workout, for a quick booster. I use it for outside sports, too, including swimming, skiing, runs, etc.I also let my 3-year old daughter have some when she is very hungry and for some reason food is delayed. She loves it and I always have to fight off demands for more! :)I usually get the Cran-Razz flavor. Note - the Black Cherry flavor contains caffeine, in case you are also passing it on to kids! I don't like the Strawberry flavor at all. Another one I recently tried is Mountain Berry.I can find it in some local stores, it's a hit or miss...

Third Man Aficianados Were Cheated
|
Sorry to be negative, but the DVD version eliminated a key part of the entire film. You can fool most of the people, but not true aficionados who remember the original. A key part of the film occurs when Major Calloway takes Holly Martins on a tour of the hospital where children are dying as a result of Harry Lime's diluted pencillin sales. This was a pivotal scene. You cheated, folks! All the fancy technical tricks in the world can't make up for that omission. I feel robbed. The VHS version has it all, thank God.

A timeless treasure
|
I agree with the first reviewer. I would like to add that the organization, supplementary information, and especially the translation provide welcome accessibility for non-Muslims, for whom this little book is intended. The words of the Prophet reflect a living personality that, in addition to his commitment to the firm foundation of Islam, was sensitive, practical, humorous, profound, loving, tolerant, fair-minded, courageous, and truly endearing. How I wish that someone had recorded the actual words that Jesus spoke in the original Aramaic with the same care with which the Qu'ran and the Sayings of Muhammad have been preserved.

Best Study Bible I've Ever Had

While I have the KJV, the ASV, the Moffatt, and several others I've found the Scofield Reference Study Bible the most helpful. It has stayed true to the KJV. I first bought it in the 1970s, (the1967 version), but that version became so dogeared, with loose psges after over 30 years of use, that I went looking for a new one, and found the 1998 version which I bought almost a year ago.Like I said, it's the best, because of the concordance, topical index, annotations, better marginal references than the other one, and maps. The footnotes are a bit off at times, but that's minor compared to the "gold" contained in the scriptures which is why I bought it in the first place!

Simple and functional
|
I've had mine for 2 years and loved it. Bought a second one a year ago for another computer, and have never had a single problem with either one.Symmetrical design allows for right or left handed users! Not too big not to small, plus it doesn't feel brittle & cheap like other mouses I have used.

Rough, cheap fabrication. Sharp edges.
|
The product works well but who knows for how long. Very cheap stamped construction. The bottom of the venturi tube looks like it was cut out with a pair of tin snips by a child and presents an injury hazard due to sharp edges while handling. The adjustable length of the venturi is unusual and was very handy for me in a special application.

Frostiana collection plus less familiar Thompson pieces
|
I purchased this CD several years ago when I wanted a recording of the Frostiana pieces that I remembered singing (and loving) when I was in a high-school choir. Not only did I love hearing these familiar pieces again, but the disc also contains some lovely Thompson church music that I was not familiar with. I have enjoyed it very much.

Trash

You don't have to go out and buy a bunch of 99 cent budget CDs. The good people at Castle Music have compiled the worst songs from 24 unlistenable albums and put them all together in one convenient package. A more apt title would have been "Shindung!"

I didn't see it coming!
|
This is the first book of Harlan Coben's I have come across, which is surprising since I am an avid mystery fan. It seemed to be plodding along predictably for me...Right up to the last two or three chapters. Then it twisted off and I never saw it coming.Looking up more of Mr. Coben's books right now! It was great!

An Old Staple

I have given this book as a gift many times over the years. The illustrations are excellent and the story true to the Bible. This is a book that should be in every family library. I like the size as well. Just a wonderful all aroundperfect gift.

odd, all right, but not very awesome
|
With scarcely a page devoted to each topic (he devotes little more than a page to the Loch Ness monster!), this book is way too sketchy to be of interest to anyone who has more than a passing interest in strange phenomena. Like all of Berlitz's books on mysterious phenomena, adequate documentation is lacking-- in this case, virtually nil. This book is all over the map, ranging from the gee-whiz Ripley's Believe It or Not!-type trivia to genuine mysteries to stuff that is just plain nonsensical ("Bikini" and "Tomb of Ice" for example). Pass this by and read something by some of the more careful researchers in the field; Charles Fort, Jerome Clark, and Colin Wilson, for example, are just three writers in the "believer" camp who are infinitely better at dealing with this type of material.

I really wanted to like this but only got 50% of the way through before it bogged down
|
While I like the overall concept of the World War and Colonization series and I have mostly enjoyed Turtledove's other efforts, I just couldn't get through this book. Somewhere around 45% of the way through the book a key discovery gets made about the Race and the effect of a certain earthbound spice. Great! This will make things interesting. Only it didn't. Because for the next 200 or so pages (I lost count) we are told about the effect over and over again in great detail. WE GET IT, OKAY? MOVE THE FRIGGIN' STORY ALONG. The story concept was good but the book could have been about a third of its size and been much, much better.

Perfect for making dinner for the family
|
This ginger paste gives my food great taste. I think it tastes better than ginger root purchased at the store. It's easy to use, I don't have to peel or grate. It also keeps well either stored in the pantry before use or in the fridge afterward. Great product. It saves me time when cooking for my family, saves money and gives my recipies/food that perfect ginger taste.

Excellent insight to dealing with mental disorders
|
As a memeber of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints dealing with depression my struggle has been hard at times. After reading this book I recommended it to all of my family. Many times they have told me that they don't understand why I feel the way I do or what is going on in my head. At times I thought the author was speaking about me specifically. I also like reading a book that had an LDS perspective. It was reassuring to hear that because I haven't been "healed" of my illness does not necessarily mean that I have too little faith.

This book is basically a cut and paste of Sally Falloon's Nourishing Traditions, a book filled with the worst recipes ever created. I was appalled.

This is the BEST album I've ever owned
|
I listen to it all the time. It is jazz, rap, and rock all jumbled up into one. Instead of just one constant beat with every song, it is all sorts topics, and you can feel every expression through Fred's vocals, Sam's bass, Wes's guitarz, and John's drums. It always hypes me up when I listen to it. I would really like to recommend this alum to everyone; it's not just for one type of person. I would like everyone to own this album.

I have no argument with this product but that's chiefly because I can't watch it! It is for area 1 (USA) and I live the UK (area 2)I think it should have been made very clear when I bought it that this was the case. I am very disappointed.David

Weak on plot, long on lecture
|
I found myself rushing through this book, not because a gripping plot was pulling me along, but to get it over with. I hoped, chapter after chapter, for some redeeming qualities, but found very few to praise. Mostly, I got tired of being lectured for page after page.

Works well for spot cleaning
|
I first bought a reconditioned unit, and just like everyone else, had SERIOUS issues with leaking. It leaked all over the place, ruined a wood desk (before we realized how badly it leaked), and didn't suction too well. I was about to write it off completely as a piece of junk, but returned it, and got a brand new one (didn't buy it through Amazon). Boy, were we surprised to see the difference! I've bought a lot of reconditioned items and never had a problem before. The new one not only didn't leak, but was significantly better at the suction power. It still takes a little elbow grease to get tough stains out (I recommend scrubbing first with some carpet cleaner), but works well if you don't want to call in a pro to do the whole house.

Didn't like it, couldn't put it down
|
This book made me think of what they say about only being able to read a limited number of books in your lifetime: I was fully aware that I was squandering time I could have spent reading a better written book, and yet I couldn't put it down. The need to find out the truth behind the events of Jane Hudson's past was so compelling that I had to race to the end of the book -- despite all the glaring holes in the plot, the thoroughly predictable identity of the villain (which I figured out about a third of the way through), the confusing array of unsympathetic characters with multiple interchangeable names, and the sometimes repetitive writing. In the end, I kind of resented the novel for making me want to finish it despite all its shortcomings. Just like the lake in the novel, no matter how much I wanted to walk away, I couldn't bring myself to do so.

Great for what I needed it for, but weird smell...
|
I wanted something cheap that I could attach to my saxophone during marching band and pep band. This Tripod is perfect, and attached easily to my lyre. I have yet to try it out, considering the season has already ended, but I will use this on the field and in the stands next year to capture those awesome band memories. The Tripod itself is nice and flexible. It just sort of smells bad (which is why I only gave it 4 stars instead of 5). But that isn't much of a problem. Overall it looks like a great product for the really low price (under 3 bucks even with shipping), and is just what I needed.

Finally, Someone is honest

Lee Grady does a tremendous job of interpreting the Scriptures in light of the whole Scriptures instead of interpreting Scripture in the light of culture. Finally, someone is honest enough to say that God is not a mysognist but the greatest feminist out there.

Lots of fun but didn't survive my 2 year old!
|
Learn through music was a total hit with my daughter. she loved it so much that we bought every cartridge that went with it. After a couple of trips in the car, the screen became stuck on spot. It was like an invisible finger was constantly pushing one area. We loved the toy so much we bought another one and just thought we would be extra careful with it. No such luck. The next one just stopped working period (it wouldn't advance through the story-new batteries and all). I would buy yet another one if I thought it would last but I doubt it. Its a great idea but its no good if it won't work!!

Not crazy about it.

Might just be me--but this is one of those CD's that the song they play on the radio is the only decent one. Maybe I'm too old for the rest--but wish I had kept the crystal so I could sell it on Ebay.

Misleading description
|
The description says "HDMI, the hottest high-definition digital audio/video standard, is compatible with all digital video connection, DVI" and kind of implies the converter carries audio. It doesn't, and was useless to me. If you need audio, do something else.If all you need video, this is good quality for the price.

A sad book
|
This book was okay, but a grave disappointment from Monica Hughes. It is a story of two children, in a world without water, who walk across the Canadian prairies to find their uncle. The story tells of how thirsty they are, and how exciting it is to put one foot in front of the other.

deck tools

I wouldn't want to build another deck without this tool. I bought mine nearly 5 years ago and do remodeling. Decks built with treated lumber come out looking better, using this tool. It forces crooked lumber where you want it so you can screw it down. It's fast and easy.

Looking at George Clooney for 90 minutes only goes so far. This movie was terrible. I felt like I was watching Groundhog Day all over again. Clooney flies all over the country to fire people. The movie shows George in an airport, shows the name of the city on the screen, Georges fires someone, George is back flying again, city name on the screen, fires someone, etc., et.... It never goes anywhere of interest. The fact that he and the supporting female character were nominated for academy awards is beyond me. Neither put in a "wow" performance.Don't bother with this one.

Helped me regulate my period
|
I am not giving it five starts as I have not become pregnant yet. Will update if I do for sure, as I know it will give hope other to women going through the same as me. I am on my second bottle but will keep taking it because it helped me ovulate (which doesn't happen normally). I was diagnosed with PCOS and me and my husband have been ttc for over a year and a half. I was also on Clomid for three months and I didn't get pregnant.So, I decided to try something natural. Started a diet to help my PCOS (no milk products and no wheat, high protein) and regular exercise. Just bought a fertility monitor (instead of the pharmacy ovulation tests, as they can be hard to read) like a month ago and surprisingly it showed that I ovulated this month. So, FertilAid definitely helped with that besides making my periods very regular (30 days).

Works on some bottles, but not on most.
|
Whether this foil foil cutter will work on any given wine bottle depends on the shape of the top of the bottle. I know, they're all round, haha, but some have more of a pronounced step about a quarter of an inch down from the bottle top than others. I've given up on this foil cutter and found that the two other ones I've tried have worked much better.
