1	Dogs love it!	I recently purchased one of these for may parents German Shepard who just loves playing with it. It's her favorite toy. I bought a similar toy by the same company (birds in a nest), and my pug absolutely loves it. If your dog likes to play with toys, this puzzle will be his/her favorite!	positive
0	Depressing and Boring	I too was disgusted with all the typo errors in my Nook edition. As one other reviewer said, the main character, Emma, turned from an intelligent person, into an idiot. I kept thinking she was going to break out of that dysfunctional group she grew up with. It was like a documentary of the 60's and 70's and everything that could possibly go wrong in a family in that era did. These were sad sad people and I found the book overall depressing and boring.	negative
0	poorly written biography	Tediously written book with too much trivial detail about Churchill-- who he had dinner with ( and sometimes what he ate), where he took vacations and what hotels he liked-- and not enough fleshing out on his political philosophy and actions. The book also presumes too much knowledge about the times and about minor historic players and issues in Britain, so you are forced to research elsewhere the topic you are reading about. I did read the whole book but regret that I didn't stop earlier to find a better Churchill bio.	negative
0	the cover is VERY misleading.	the cover is interesting, the description on the back makes it seem amazing! and when i read about 20 pages of the book, i'm in total shock. this is not the book that i had in mind.first of all, this is the !MOST! unrealistic thing i have ever read. As hard as i tried, I could not get into the story. The language is very .. let me say this: it's complex poetry written in the simplicity for a five year old.	negative
0	Disappointed	This sander sanded fine but there were two important things about this tool that disappointed me. First, I have two Shop Vacs and this sander would not attach to either of them. Second, the ability of the sander to collect dust was marginal at best. The boat yard where I was working had to ask me to quit using this sander because it was allowing too much dust to escape. I had higher expectations from Porter Cable.	negative
0	Good sound but bad workmanship	First, the speakers hurt my ears (they clamp to your head tightly) and another thing, after two weeks of using it, it stopped emiting sound. :-( However the sound quality is wonderful, full bass, etc.	negative
1	ADVENTURE IN FACT	NOT ONLY IS THIS CLASSIC BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED FOR IT's DAY, BUT IS FACTUAL TO THE TEACHINGS OF THE CHURCH. A MUST SEE!!	positive
1	HOW TO TURN OFF LIGHTS	Treppie wrote a review about the product, and info on how to turn out the lights. Yes, they're beautiful when you want them to be. But if you want the lights out on the machine? Follow the instructions in the manual to set the time...and then press the (\|) button (power) to turn off the lights. That's the only way to get them to turn off without unplugging the dang thing. THANK YOU TREPPIE.	positive
0	Lacks syncopation and variety	As a listener I pay attention to the music, not the words, so I am not making a comment on the quality of the lyrics. I purchased this album after owning Whisper to the Wild Water and Misty Eyed Adventures and was disappointed. Misty Eyed Adventures had a wonderful quirkyness and stylistic variety to it and Whisper to the Wild Water had wonderful melodies carried forward by moving sycopated beats and great arrangements. Perfect Time plods along and I find it bland. I would not buy it again.	negative
0	Terrible Movie - Dont waste your time!	This is the worst movie I have seen all year. It was hard to follow what was happening - you couldn't tell what was real or not. The movie made no sense. Total waste of time to watch - it will leave you total confused in the end. Nothing was real.	negative
1	A primer on how self-sufficiency and joy can be achieved at any income. This is a jewel of a can-do resource!	I am still savoring this book page by page.I love Dolly's (and her description of her Dad's) humor. Her method descriptions and recipes are concise, adequate, truly practical, and contain none of the snobbery of "expert advice". It was a joy to read her step-by-steps with comments. I must confess, at the time Dolly originally wrote this, I would have loved it even more, as her way of low-income life was the way of necessity at the time for me -- not the wonderful, funny, embracing choice it was for Dolly! I have bought multiple copies to share with my children and mainly younger friends. I'll be instigating a good part of her "recipes" on our family vacations (we always have some similar "Possum Living" project going on anyways -- now it will be with life-embracing "Dolly" style)!.Read it for the love of living, as well as the wonderful, active relief from the "rat race".	positive
1	Very Happy	The Toshiba Satellite P205-S6287 17" Notebook is all I had hoped for and more. I have been using it to do some video editing and it works well.	positive
0	You get what you pay for	The vent clip broke the first time I tried to fit it in my car. You can't expect much for under $2 so at least you are not disappointed. The whole item is poor quality and not worth the shipping costs. I didn't even want to give it one star!	negative
1	He Gets By With A Little Help From His Friends	In an effort to support Landis in his legal tribulations, a glittering array of Hollywood heavyweight directors and actors, with a rock star thrown in, toil as bit players and extras to make a manic movie with ultra-dry wit and tongue-in-cheek dialogue. Goldblum and Pfeiffer play their roles a little subdued compared to what is going on around them. It all makes for a well-constructed comedy that became an instant cult favorite. The more times the viewer sees it the more nuances and cameos jump out. Highly recommended!	positive
1	Memory Lane	This book gives a wonderful account of an old fashioned Christmas. Though it is told from Mr. Burton's own experiences, the stories give room to remember your own times of joy. It gives you inspiration to give those memories to the new generations that have joined your family.	positive
1	Read my review of Semper Mars and you know	I was a non-combat Coast Guardsman. My Marine friends lived a different life than I. Wonderfully written, great continuation of Sempervivum Mars experience	positive
0	2 gauges...which will you get?	I ordered this gauge based on the primary picture which shows a blue gauge going to 20 psi, with the pressure relief button on the left as you view the gauge face. The one I received is black, goes to 15 psi with the release button on the right. The release button is plastic and the gauge overall looks like the cheap cousin of the one in the primary picture. I would not have purchased this gauge if I had know which one I was getting. But not worth the trouble to return.	negative
0	not a rap movie	This movie is ... it was nothing at all like fatjoe's other film Thicker than water which was very good. This film has a awful plot, and it also has some karate in which I thought was dumb for this type of film. There was a guy who looked like billy blanks wannabe. I also thought that it would have been more focused on the rappers in the film but instead it was about some stupid kids who somehow know karate, and the girls mom is 60 years old and she tries to be a major drug dealer, and her daughter is a crackhead who can't act or sing. It isn't worth to even get on bootleg or to rent dont let the cover fool you it is not worth your time. I gave it to one of my friends and he said it was extermely stale.	negative
1	Great for 5D Mark II plus two lenses!!	Just got this bag for my 5D mark II and it fits great. I took off my camera strap (a.k.a the "steal me" strap) since it was always getting in the way of my shooting. I have a 24-105L and a EF 50mm 1.4 and they all fit it in this bag. The best setup I found is to have the 24-105 already mounted on the camera and then you simply place the 50mm in the next compartment. This is the smallest most discrete bag I have found for a full frame camera and is well padded and quite light. There is also some room for the charger, manual, and other small accessories.The 5D II is a pretty large camera so you should have no problems with cropped bodies such as canon Rebels and other smaller cameras.The gray color is much darker than the picture shows and is in fact almost black which is great since it doesn't really stick out (if that matters to you). Overall, very happy with this setup.	positive
1	Excellent tie-in book to Buffy	Though obviously targeted for fans of the TV series, readers who enjoy mythology will surprisingly love THE MONSTER BOOK. Obviously, the book includes an in depth look at what has occurred on the TV series as these books tend to do. However, the trio of authors also explores links to myths, other literature and movies, and culture, especially that of the supernatural creatures visiting Sunnydale obsessed with slaying the slayer.BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER: THE MONSTER BOOK is one of the best of the media tie-in books written because it delves deep into the underlying philosophy of the show. The standard passages are all included to the joy of Buffy buffs, but there is more to the legend as written by Mr. Golden, Mr. Bisette and Mr. Sniegoski. Thus, THE MONSTER BOOK has wider appeal.	positive
1	Burton at his best.	I have always been just a mediocre fan of Tim Burton, but if he starts making all of his movies in the style he made Sleepy Hollow, I have a feeling that opinion will change. Sleepy Hollow is as creepy and exciting as it is visually stunning. It tells the ancient story of Ichabod Crane and his bout with the legendary HEadless Horseman. This movie has many strengths, such as Beautiful yet creepy and gothic-like atmosphere, a solid plot, and an EXTREMELY creepy portrayel by Christopher Walken. Be advised though, the film is very gory, and if you have a weak stomach do not watch it without either your hands over your ears or on the fast forward button. But I think that this movie is Tim Burton's best and definitely one of the more unique(in a good way) horror films put out in a while.	positive
1	This is the guidebook for visually oriented people.	I used this book to plan an upcoming trip to Poland. Like most people I know virtually nothing about what there is to see in Poland. This book was indispensable! And best of all it is filled with pictures! So even though Poland is filled with castles I was able to make a judgement as to which castles looked the most interesting. If you are spending only three or four days in Krakov this book contains more than enough information. No need to buy the Krakov book. The book is divided into regions with lots of maps to help orient you. They also spend a page or two giving in-depth highlights of areas of special interest in addition to the usual stuff for each area. If you are visually oriented don't even think about buying any other guidebook.	positive
1	Does its job...	This is an astringent and dries up weepy wounds and similar maladies. It seems to speed healing.	positive
1	Classic Thrash	This is an essential album for thrash fans, and together with "Worship Music," it showcases one of the best thrash bands still going.	positive
1	solid brass pulls well worth the money	These are solid brass and not readily available at your home stores.The pulls offered at the home stores are quite cheap and made of zinc with nickel/brass plate.	positive
0	Awful. Awful. Awful.	I don't like leaving one star reviews. I always try to focus on the positives. The only positive was the star of the movie was hot. Hot woman in a mini-skirt with a samurai sword - PRO! I love japanese movies, I love samurai movies, I love scary movies, I love gory movies and this ticked all the right boxes when I was looking for a movie to buy. This was a low budget movie. It was gore for gore sake. I don't mind gore. Check out gantz, really gory, but awesome movie. This was pointless gore. The story got really silly. It was just a case of what weird and twisted things can we do? I knew the movie would be like this from the reviews, but I expected plot and awesome action. The fight scenes were rubbish. There is nothing good to say about the movie, the star was hot! I think there are much better movies out there to spend your money on.	negative
0	Less Than 6 Months Old And Broken	I liked this product when I got it, how it moved the popcorn around to pop most of the kernels and how easy it was to use. Unfortunately it has been less than 6 months, and the peg holding the middle part on broke. I am waiting for the company to let me know if they will replace this item, because I am very disappointed that an otherwise nice item would break so easily like it has. It's especially upsetting that I have all of the supplies for caramel corn for the holiday...except the popcorn maker.Even though you have to be careful not to burn the popcorn, and the plastic lid melted around the edges where it connects to the machine, it is a nice item overall. If it lasts longer, it would be even nicer. I don't regret buying it, I just hope I can get the problem resolved.	negative
0	Didn't meet expectations	I picked this up a while back expecting some tongue in cheek humor, maybe a little usable insight, but what I got was pure ridiculous. I hope that was how this book was written - for humor and not for anyone to actually follow.	negative
1	Simple, safe and effective	I'm very happy with this plastic beauty. For the occasional frozen pizza, or messy cheese delivery, this puppy goes the trick. I had an old metal wheel that was so-so and this surpasses it nicely. It's not a Ginsu, but like Dominos, it delivers!	positive
0	Corbin's Fancy	I only read books that are text to speech enabled. Audioable charges to much money for their product. So sorry I wont be able to read any of Linda Leal Miller's latest releases. Sight impaired women love the speech to text ability. Why are some books enabled and others are not?	negative
0	PRODUCT DAMAGED BEYOND WATCHING	THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER RECEIVED A DVD THAT WAS SO DAMAGED THAT IT IS BEYOND WATCHING. IT IS A DOUBLE FEATURE AND ONE OF THE DVD'S WAS FINE (FEW GOOD MEN), BUT JERRY MAGUIRE WAS A CONTINUOUS SKIPPING THOUGHOUT MOVIE. I TRIED WITHOUT SUCCESS TO BUFF IT OUT, BUT IT IS OBVIOUS THAT IT HAS BIG GOUGES IN IT.I HAVE ORDERED LOTS AND LOTS OF DVD'S OVER THE LAST SIX MONTHS, AND HAVE BEEN SO HAPPY WITH ALL OF THEM, SO WAS REALLY UPSET OVER THIS ONE.I WOULD RETURN IT, BUT THE PACKAGE WAS DELIVERED TO MY OFFICE, AND A CO-WORKER OPENED IT, AND THROUGH OUT THE PACKAGING, LEAVING THE DVD'S ON MY DESK, SO I AM STUCK.I WILL ORDER AGAIN, BUT WILL BE MORE CAREFUL IN THE FUTURE IN GETTING MY MOVIES, AND VIEWING THEM QUICKLY.	negative
0	Doesn't fit new 80 gig very well	Like the heading says, this case barely fits on my new Gen 80 gig iPods, bulging at the seams and not totally covering the unit. I don't know what iPod this does fit well, but on mine, after literally hours of fiddling, it still is misshapen and awful. Nice clear cover over the screen, shame about the fit.	negative
0	malfunctions after several uses, manufacturer did not respond to emails poor customer	No one bothered to contact me after I emailed the company TWICE about the product, at their company website-"contact us" (you know the tyoe of contact page that does not provide an email copy to you--The malfunction symbol appeared after a few uses, so I spent $60 for nothing.	negative
0	THE MORE YOU HEAR THIS CD,THE MORE YOU HATE IT!	In June 2001,I was raving about Alicia Keys like the next man.I,like everybody,thought that she was the best thing since white bread,well months later,I've came to the conclusion that Keys and her overrated debut,"Songs In A Minor" get on my last nerves!After a while,"Songs In A Minor" becomes annoying and redunant.And with the exception of a few numbers("Rock With You"..."Troubles"..."Mr. Man"),the songs BLOW!The production-for the most part-is OFF and her piano skills aren't that great."Girlfriend" sounds like a Britney Spearssong with a hip hop beat."Fallin'" sounds like a Mariah Carey outake.And even "Trouble" and "A Woman's Worth" come off likeMary J. Blige wannabes.This CD isn't all of that.This is what I call Prada Soul.Glossy,heavily marketed R&B; that tries to hide under a fake REAL SOUL banter.Unexposed "TRL" fans might go ga-ga over this but for real soul fans-this isn't cutting it...	negative
1	Dude, you're getting a Del!	l once listened to ''Mistadaobolina'' on repeat for almost an hour and it just got better and better. The rest of the album is so-so, but ''Mistadabolina'' is Del's ''Stairway To Heaven''.	positive
0	Heart - Greatest Hits 1985-1995	Nowhere near as good, in MY opinion, as "Hearts Essential". It won't get as much play time as HEARTS ESSENTIAL.	negative
0	Hard as a brick	Be warned this thing is as hard as a concrete slab, and the wings that so profusely jut out of the sides (not really represented in photos or description) don't help, maybe I've been too spoiled with Relax the Back tempurpedic products which cost 5x more, I guess you get what you pay for.	negative
1	very pleased	This item is colorful, fun to look at to discover all there is in each poster! It helps to visiualize everything there is to learn about music.	positive
1	Wrestle Reviewer was wrong on some parts	There is no part of the game where you can play as legends. Also DDP is not in the game. The easy way to win the titles is by going into championship part and when you get into The Tripple Threat and Fatal Four Way matches and and get out of it and go and continue on until you get a tables match and take your wrestler to 1 of the announcer's tables and wait til 1 of your opponents goes gets on the table your on and slam him or her through the table.	positive
0	Terrible	Other one star reviews state the failings of this movie better than I could. I'll just say, hooray for motion sickness!	negative
1	I loved it	I found this product easy to use and of great quality when I copied my TV show to dvd. I want another one for another room/tv.	positive
1	Actually I give it a 10(faked the age)	This album is strictly dope. Before this album dropped, Kanye said in an interview that you could feel his soul in his music and it didn't matter who collabed on the cd. He was right. You can feel Kanye's heart in his music, unlike other artists in the game. Every song on this album is hot. I'll agree with other reviewers that there is too many skits on this album, but besides that it mixes perfect beats with surprisingly tight rhymes. There are some songs where Kanye is a lil rough and breathy, but he makes you forget about it later on.Great songs on the album(my favorites): "Two Words", "Through The Wire", "Jesus Walks", "Never Let You Down", and "Family Business"(Kanye's Greatest Lyricism).Guest appearences by Jay-Z, Freeway, Common, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, and Twista.Anyone who says this album's wack has rocks in they head and I'd be happy to beat em out.	positive
1	The Captain's Come To Terms...	This was a nice little documentary on each actor's views on the characters they played in the various incarnations of Star Trek. The fact that it is done as Bill Shatner's journey to visit each one is rather unique, and at times pretty funny (Seeing Kate Mulgrew finding him sitting in a box on a street in New York for example).	positive
0	Trite	Considering the rich topic and the possibilities, it somehow just ended up even more trite for failing to deliver anything of interest whatsoever. Wasting these two competent actors with this meaningless and unengaging work just made it worse.	negative
0	Nothing New	Much as I hate an argument, I must point out that the previous reviewer is seriously misinformed if he thinks that the material in this book was in some way new or different from the original NLP.Terrence McCLendon, writing in "The Wild Days : NLP 1972-1981" explains in detail how Bandler and Grinder discovered Castaneda's work (the basis of "New Code" NLP) in 1974, and quickly incorporated various ideas - especially "stopping the world" - into their teaching at that time.Personally I found this book badly written and tedious in the extreme. So nothing new, and definitely not recommended.	negative
1	My new fave movie	I knew I was going to love this movie. It's cool to finally see someone use their knowledge of the future to make money and it not come back to bite them in the ass. In fact, all of them benefited from it.Lou is hysterical and is who we really are deep down. C'mon, you KNOW you crank up the radio and play air drums in your car when you hear Mötley Crüe.Your mother and your girlfriend will probably complain about the movie, but that just means it's really funny.My friends and I will be quoting lines from this movie for a while just like we do with all the good ones.	positive
0	doesnt deserve that star	its emcees (if 50 can even be called an emcee) that is killing the essence of hip hop,hes a mix between nelly and an untlaented dmx,his old stuff use 2 be good but this is awful,this is bad pop music	negative
1	Wow	Hard as it may be to believe it, the second season of "Wonder Showzen" is even more irreverant than the first, going so far as to include at least one episode of a (seemingly) completely different series --- intentionally, of course. It's a shame that only two seasons were made.	positive
0	Chanel and Her World	I was disappointed in the text. I guess from the title I should have expected some world history. The story line is somewhat incoherent and doesn't seem to present her life very well. I had to use the index to find a couple lines of reference to her "Boy", a romance started in the story and then dropped, only to be finished much later and with no real detail. Either Chanel was very closed mouth about a lot of her life or the author didn't know her that well. Also, there are a lot of pictures of rather irrelevant items. I wouldn't purchase it again.	negative
1	For those who do not know how to cook brown rice....	You have to add 50% more water when cooking brown rice. I read a couple of reviews that said it can only cook white rice. Follow the instructions it gives you for the different types of rice. That particular person must not have read the directions.Do not place it under cabinets. It won't hurt it right away, but after several times, may cause problems with the wood.Great value and product.	positive
1	BOUNTY HUNTER	Out of all the Star wars games i have played i enjoy this game the most, You take on Small armies basicaly and you can have fun using fancy backflips and rolls. The controls are simple and using all of jango fets gadgets including, Ordanary laser pistol, a jet pack and even the flame thrower. You are a mercanary and yoou must capture or kill bountys that can even be Hostile I give it 5 stars.	positive
0	Not Worth It...	This cheaply made book may be able to claim that it contains all of Sorayama's images, but the reproduction quality is poor, on cheap paper, and many of the best images are split down the middle by the spine/seam of the book, making them look even cheaper than this book already makes them appear. Not worth your money, unless all you want are tiny lousy quality images on tissue paper. Sorayama deserves better.	negative
1	both good and bad	the watch arrived about a week ago. i took it to the jeweler to have it sized. done. right away i noticed that it was losing time. i went back and read the instructions which were generic for several watches and not real clear. i called the customer service and spoke to a lady who was very helpful. she said that it was probably the battery and she would send me a replacement watch which she did at no cost to me whatsoever as long as i returned the original before the specified time. i returned i yesterday. in the interim sinced i had alrealy had the first watch sized, i chcck whther it was keeping time and it was so i kept it. it's still funcitoning correctly and i did place a black leather strrap on it and it looks great.	positive
0	Not so sure	It was hard for me to get into the book. I much prefer Buckland's books on Witchcraft. This seems outdated.	negative
0	Space Amoeba	This film did have some interesting moments, but overall it is not one that I would recommend even for hard core science fiction fans and those who enjoy the films made by the Japanese studios. I was disappointed. I kept waiting for something significant to happen and it never did.	negative
1	Sorry	This is Ally again, saying sorry for not giving this doll all the credit she deserved. Madison is BEUTIFUL and her dress is awsome and I love the socks showing, that is so cool, and her boots rock (her second outfit still sucks though). Her hair is big and awsome, it really goes with the outfit. Even though you can barly see it in the (terrible) picture, her lipstick has glitter in it, that is so neat it really goes with the theam of the outfit. you can acctualy get any doll's hair that big if you put her hair in a pony tail and thet split it (the hair in the pony tail) up into five braids, then just leave her hair like that for a few monthes (yeah I know it takes a long time) and then take all the braids out and you have an awsome (huge) hair do. I tryed it with my Chelsea and it was soooo cool.* Ally *Age 13God Bless	positive
1	Very easy to use and it works!	I had never used a knife sharpening stick before, but this Lansky came with very clear instructions and is really easy to use. It even sharpened a knife that I was convinced was a lost cause. Great buy for the price and works well. I would definitely buy it again.	positive
1	Fun Learning	This was recommended by a friend who bought it for his kids. We LOVE playing the allowance game and recommend it for you & your kids. They won't even know they're learning to add and subtract. This has been perfect for 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade.	positive
0	wireless router	We were able to hook up the router with Netgears help. It worked near the router but when we took the laptop upstairs we would lose the signal. Unfortunately we had to return it.	negative
0	No Drama	I hate to give this book such a low rating but it was incredibly dull. This is coming from a relative of the subject! The title might lead you to believe the author will paint a tale of two persons and compare the sides, but in fact she tells you in the first few pages that she sees him as a visionary. There is nothing in the book that would suggest the subject was a villain at all. I have a great interest in Mr. Maxwell and I could not bring myself to finish this book - and this was my second attempt.	negative
1	Wustof classic 6" utility knife - excellent!	This knife is superb. It completes my wood block of other Wustof knives perfectly. It is a size that I use every day.	positive
1	Gamer -Blu-ray	Directed by: Mark Neveldine and Brian TaylorStarring: Gerard ButlerRunning time: 95 min. R - 2009The movie "Gamer" stars Gerald Butler of "300" fame who is a convict used in a Call of Duty type virtual video game. If he wins 30 matches he gets his freedom, but the creator of the game has another agenda. The movie also has an interesting take on the game Sims, what if it were played using real people? "Gamer" has a similar feel to the prior movie I reviewed "Surrogates" although much more adult oriented. Not intended for kids at all despite being based around a video game.Buy it, it's that good.	positive
1	Better that Tom Waits	A great performance from this Italian artist, perhaps the best Italian songwriter today, better than his inspirator Waits, better than Paolo Conte. Great night and drunk songs.	positive
0	Defective - two of these Xtreme quit working	I tried... twice. But both of these "toy toothbrushes" quit working. In the past I had a great experience with an older Sonicare toothbrush and was hoping for similar quality with this simpler, cheaper and replaceable battery powered device. No such luck. After a couple weeks it just stopped. Phillips was kind enough to replace it but the replacement also failed after a couple weeks. My advise is to avoid the Xtreme and buy the higher price device (or stick to the simple manual toothbrush).	negative
1	Radiation Shielding	I have read 'Radiation Shielding' from cover to cover,and I must say that Shultis hit the nail on the head for almost every question I wanted answered.This book was very helpful in that it provided great detail for shielding procedures, step by step,unlike many other books I read.The only problem I found with this textbook is that the binding on it is weak,and comes off easily. Plus the pages have a strong smell of sulfur(fart) .This was probably due to a problem with the manufacture of the paper,but don't worry,it's not that bad.Thumbs up.Great book.	positive
1	Very good	This album holds its own with its unique and beautiful sound. i have heard much comparison to radiohead, but i don;t feel they are similar enough to do so. Sigur Ros has carved out a niche of its own. i love it.	positive
1	easily the best game ever	this game is SICK! so what if u dont get to play as snake! when u play as raiden you are fighting alongside snake as he helps u and you can finally see how he "solid snake" fights as opposed to while you're playing as him....and for those of you who r still not convinced...get mgs2 substance which is being released soon. you can play as 6 different characters. and yes...THAT INLUDES SNAKE!!	positive
1	Incredible!	This book is very scary and very creepy..especially to me, someone who has paid lip service to Christ all his life but never really started to pay attention until a few months ago... for me it is a direct indication of where I could've fallen all too easily had I not made some good decisions... Highly recommended!!!	positive
1	Awesome	The Furminator actually does what it says. It eliminates so much excess fur. I have stopped having to vacuum up white dog fur twice a day. My dog loves it too. I brush her a few minutes everyday (outside) and the fur has stopped flying ! Buy it you'll love it.	positive
1	classic	this book is such a classic. everyone should read it. a prank call leads to a true, and touching friendship. great for all ages to read.	positive
0	Wrong item - somebody can't READ label!	I specifically ordered battery packs for a FLEX-BELT by SLENDERTONE. Product is advertised with the Slendertone page! Product PHOTO clearly shows a battery with the label "850 mAh" however seller sent me TWO packs of "1,200 mAh" batteries which are two big for FLEX-BELT controller box("AAA" size - NOT "AA") and when tried anyway - began dangerously OVERHEATING unit!This seller obviously can't be bothered with "details" like product specifications wanted by customers or just CAN'T READ ENGLISH maybe?	negative
0	The Control Mechanism is What?	Lipton's initial presentation of a string of fun discoveries from the history of science is suddenly interrupted by a clunker of a punch line.Lipton lost me when he stated on disc #2 that the control mechanism for cellular membranes is obviously field broadcasts from the eternal beings of the spirit world.I know he is mistaken here because the results of my own laboratory experiments clearly show that the control mechanism for cellular membranes is either 1) God, 2) The Flying Spaghetti Monster, 3) Aliens or 4) Pokemon.I will read more of Lipton's work when he finds a way to scientifically test his hypothesis. Perhaps then he can disprove mine.	negative
1	Excellent. But, doesn't last forever	I don't know how long a track ball like this is "supposed" to last. I bought this one as a replacement for one I've had for a few years. I use my track ball all day every day and have had just about every type of mouse or track ball there is. This is very reasonably priced, comfortable and performs great on my iMac. I also have the model that is a little less expensive on my PC.I bought the second Trackman because the scroll wheel on my original one had stopped working. While I was waiting for the second one to arrive, the first started working again. I'll hold onto the other one though because I'm sure I'll wear the second one out.... someday...	positive

1	Sooo much better than the Boppy!!	I LOVE THIS!Why? Because my prego wife loves it.I first got her the famous boppy, but it wasnt that great. It was too thin and when she wanted to move to her other side it required her to pull up the pillow and reset it. So we bought this one. I was worried it would be too short (the ad has what looks like a short lady) but that was not the case.It was MUCH thicker and it made my wife much more comfortable, especially when she needed to flip over.The only drawback was it didnt come with a soft slip cover. I guess you have to buy that separately. We decided to skip it for now.You cant go wrong with this.Frank	positive
1	2 week and seeing results	I absolutely love this video. After a long day of work I use to find it difficult to get my self out of the couch and do a daily workout. But 12 minutes doesn't seem difficult, and helps me overcome the reluctance to work out. And usually after I do a 12-min session I feel more energized. I especially love the toning sessions, as I have done it for about 2 weeks now and have been feeling results!	positive

I contacted Amazon to return it, but they said I have to pay a 20% restocking fee since I opened it.Terrible.AND...don't expect anything but the movie. No special features....nothing.

0	Marine propaganda	I received this book as a Christmas present and am grateful that at least my money was not wasted on it. While to a certain extent it chronicles the miraculous survival of a military outfit, the author delves too much into petty squabbles with the U.S. Army, into trivial and inane reflections of the solidiers involved, and into racial and sexual biases. I was much more interested in learning the details of this operation than I was in the personal prejudices of soldiers, which were borne out in virtually every page of the book. I concur with a fellow reviewer that additional maps should have been enclosed to assist the reader to more easily digest information. This is not a piece of literature by any stretch of the imagination; it is, instead, simply a work of Marine propaganda and I now think much less of the U.S. Marine Corps than I did before I read this awful book.	negative

1	They weren't kidding...	Review actually provided by Stephen Andrew Lynch, this was a gift for him:Perfect pushups give you a MUCH better workout when doing pushups.

Only complaint: the grips can be a bit hard on the hands after a while.	positive
0	Fan's #1 Request - Don't Screw it Up	There are songs that should never be re-interpreted or covered, and if released as a tribute, should not shame the original work.I was in several bands, I'm no stranger to criticism, so I'm just going to be blunt. The Carpet Crawlers is one of the most beautiful songs sung by Peter Gabriel, and it is not a challenge to be taken lightly. The singer on this tribute is not soulful, morose, soft and lovely, but is instead whiny and in no way soothing. More importantly, they somehow turned it into a whiny soft-rock song with soprano - I booooo you. I mean, wow. I appreciate that the singers are not English, and maybe there are cultural differences, but once I heard the strings kick in, that was it. Fail. Epic. Irredeemable.I condemn this cover, equate it with the ET video game of the 1980's, and wash my hands of it.	negative
0	One good song does not a CD make	If you project the quality of 'In Love w/ a Girl' to the rest of the album, then you've made the same mistake I have. That song is killer, but in no way represents the rest of the songs contained on the CD. You might find 1 or 2 other songs that are catchy tunes, but overall, unless you like really raw, amateurish performances devoid of any complexity, you'll be left disappointed.	negative
1	Great At Home Workout!	I really like this workout DVD. It's perfect for me on those evenings when I just can't make it to the gym but still want a real workout. Her method works. She gets you to work out those troubled areas and muscles that you may not always get to when working out at the gym. Although she says to do the routine 4 to 6 times a week it can get boring. I try to do it 3 times a week. I would definitey recommend this DVD and plan to purchase the Post Pregnancy DVD after my child is born.	positive
1	Wonderful!!	I bought this mat for my 11 week old daughter, and was very disappointed at first with how little it held her attention (except for the mirror). Then at 12 weeks, she became absoulutely enthralled by it, staring at the animals and talking to herself in the mirror. Now at 14 weeks, she bats at the toys, plays on her tummy with the lights and laughs at the monkey, her favorite of the animals. I recommend it, but I also recommend that you be patient, and don't expect magic the first day. Give it time, you and your baby will get a kick out of it.	positive

I recently purchased one of these for may parents German Shepard who just loves playing with it. It's her favorite toy. I bought a similar toy by the same company (birds in a nest), and my pug absolutely loves it. If your dog likes to play with toys, this puzzle will be his/her favorite!

Depressing and Boring

I too was disgusted with all the typo errors in my Nook edition. As one other reviewer said, the main character, Emma, turned from an intelligent person, into an idiot. I kept thinking she was going to break out of that dysfunctional group she grew up with. It was like a documentary of the 60's and 70's and everything that could possibly go wrong in a family in that era did. These were sad sad people and I found the book overall depressing and boring.

poorly written biography

Tediously written book with too much trivial detail about Churchill-- who he had dinner with ( and sometimes what he ate), where he took vacations and what hotels he liked-- and not enough fleshing out on his political philosophy and actions. The book also presumes too much knowledge about the times and about minor historic players and issues in Britain, so you are forced to research elsewhere the topic you are reading about. I did read the whole book but regret that I didn't stop earlier to find a better Churchill bio.

the cover is VERY misleading.

the cover is interesting, the description on the back makes it seem amazing! and when i read about 20 pages of the book, i'm in total shock. this is not the book that i had in mind.first of all, this is the !MOST! unrealistic thing i have ever read. As hard as i tried, I could not get into the story. The language is very .. let me say this: it's complex poetry written in the simplicity for a five year old.

Disappointed

This sander sanded fine but there were two important things about this tool that disappointed me. First, I have two Shop Vacs and this sander would not attach to either of them. Second, the ability of the sander to collect dust was marginal at best. The boat yard where I was working had to ask me to quit using this sander because it was allowing too much dust to escape. I had higher expectations from Porter Cable.

HOW TO TURN OFF LIGHTS

Treppie wrote a review about the product, and info on how to turn out the lights. Yes, they're beautiful when you want them to be. But if you want the lights out on the machine? Follow the instructions in the manual to set the time...and then press the (|) button (power) to turn off the lights. That's the only way to get them to turn off without unplugging the dang thing. THANK YOU TREPPIE.

Lacks syncopation and variety

As a listener I pay attention to the music, not the words, so I am not making a comment on the quality of the lyrics. I purchased this album after owning Whisper to the Wild Water and Misty Eyed Adventures and was disappointed. Misty Eyed Adventures had a wonderful quirkyness and stylistic variety to it and Whisper to the Wild Water had wonderful melodies carried forward by moving sycopated beats and great arrangements. Perfect Time plods along and I find it bland. I would not buy it again.

A primer on how self-sufficiency and joy can be achieved at any income. This is a jewel of a can-do resource!

I am still savoring this book page by page.I love Dolly's (and her description of her Dad's) humor. Her method descriptions and recipes are concise, adequate, truly practical, and contain none of the snobbery of "expert advice". It was a joy to read her step-by-steps with comments. I must confess, at the time Dolly originally wrote this, I would have loved it even more, as her way of low-income life was the way of necessity at the time for me -- not the wonderful, funny, embracing choice it was for Dolly! I have bought multiple copies to share with my children and mainly younger friends. I'll be instigating a good part of her "recipes" on our family vacations (we always have some similar "Possum Living" project going on anyways -- now it will be with life-embracing "Dolly" style)!.Read it for the love of living, as well as the wonderful, active relief from the "rat race".

He Gets By With A Little Help From His Friends

In an effort to support Landis in his legal tribulations, a glittering array of Hollywood heavyweight directors and actors, with a rock star thrown in, toil as bit players and extras to make a manic movie with ultra-dry wit and tongue-in-cheek dialogue. Goldblum and Pfeiffer play their roles a little subdued compared to what is going on around them. It all makes for a well-constructed comedy that became an instant cult favorite. The more times the viewer sees it the more nuances and cameos jump out. Highly recommended!

2 gauges...which will you get?

I ordered this gauge based on the primary picture which shows a blue gauge going to 20 psi, with the pressure relief button on the left as you view the gauge face. The one I received is black, goes to 15 psi with the release button on the right. The release button is plastic and the gauge overall looks like the cheap cousin of the one in the primary picture. I would not have purchased this gauge if I had know which one I was getting. But not worth the trouble to return.

not a rap movie

This movie is ... it was nothing at all like fatjoe's other film Thicker than water which was very good. This film has a awful plot, and it also has some karate in which I thought was dumb for this type of film. There was a guy who looked like billy blanks wannabe. I also thought that it would have been more focused on the rappers in the film but instead it was about some stupid kids who somehow know karate, and the girls mom is 60 years old and she tries to be a major drug dealer, and her daughter is a crackhead who can't act or sing. It isn't worth to even get on bootleg or to rent dont let the cover fool you it is not worth your time. I gave it to one of my friends and he said it was extermely stale.

Great for 5D Mark II plus two lenses!!

Just got this bag for my 5D mark II and it fits great. I took off my camera strap (a.k.a the "steal me" strap) since it was always getting in the way of my shooting. I have a 24-105L and a EF 50mm 1.4 and they all fit it in this bag. The best setup I found is to have the 24-105 already mounted on the camera and then you simply place the 50mm in the next compartment. This is the smallest most discrete bag I have found for a full frame camera and is well padded and quite light. There is also some room for the charger, manual, and other small accessories.The 5D II is a pretty large camera so you should have no problems with cropped bodies such as canon Rebels and other smaller cameras.The gray color is much darker than the picture shows and is in fact almost black which is great since it doesn't really stick out (if that matters to you). Overall, very happy with this setup.

Excellent tie-in book to Buffy

Though obviously targeted for fans of the TV series, readers who enjoy mythology will surprisingly love THE MONSTER BOOK. Obviously, the book includes an in depth look at what has occurred on the TV series as these books tend to do. However, the trio of authors also explores links to myths, other literature and movies, and culture, especially that of the supernatural creatures visiting Sunnydale obsessed with slaying the slayer.BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER: THE MONSTER BOOK is one of the best of the media tie-in books written because it delves deep into the underlying philosophy of the show. The standard passages are all included to the joy of Buffy buffs, but there is more to the legend as written by Mr. Golden, Mr. Bisette and Mr. Sniegoski. Thus, THE MONSTER BOOK has wider appeal.

Burton at his best.

I have always been just a mediocre fan of Tim Burton, but if he starts making all of his movies in the style he made Sleepy Hollow, I have a feeling that opinion will change. Sleepy Hollow is as creepy and exciting as it is visually stunning. It tells the ancient story of Ichabod Crane and his bout with the legendary HEadless Horseman. This movie has many strengths, such as Beautiful yet creepy and gothic-like atmosphere, a solid plot, and an EXTREMELY creepy portrayel by Christopher Walken. Be advised though, the film is very gory, and if you have a weak stomach do not watch it without either your hands over your ears or on the fast forward button. But I think that this movie is Tim Burton's best and definitely one of the more unique(in a good way) horror films put out in a while.

This is the guidebook for visually oriented people.

I used this book to plan an upcoming trip to Poland. Like most people I know virtually nothing about what there is to see in Poland. This book was indispensable! And best of all it is filled with pictures! So even though Poland is filled with castles I was able to make a judgement as to which castles looked the most interesting. If you are spending only three or four days in Krakov this book contains more than enough information. No need to buy the Krakov book. The book is divided into regions with lots of maps to help orient you. They also spend a page or two giving in-depth highlights of areas of special interest in addition to the usual stuff for each area. If you are visually oriented don't even think about buying any other guidebook.

Awful. Awful. Awful.

I don't like leaving one star reviews. I always try to focus on the positives. The only positive was the star of the movie was hot. Hot woman in a mini-skirt with a samurai sword - PRO! I love japanese movies, I love samurai movies, I love scary movies, I love gory movies and this ticked all the right boxes when I was looking for a movie to buy. This was a low budget movie. It was gore for gore sake. I don't mind gore. Check out gantz, really gory, but awesome movie. This was pointless gore. The story got really silly. It was just a case of what weird and twisted things can we do? I knew the movie would be like this from the reviews, but I expected plot and awesome action. The fight scenes were rubbish. There is nothing good to say about the movie, the star was hot! I think there are much better movies out there to spend your money on.

Less Than 6 Months Old And Broken

I liked this product when I got it, how it moved the popcorn around to pop most of the kernels and how easy it was to use. Unfortunately it has been less than 6 months, and the peg holding the middle part on broke. I am waiting for the company to let me know if they will replace this item, because I am very disappointed that an otherwise nice item would break so easily like it has. It's especially upsetting that I have all of the supplies for caramel corn for the holiday...except the popcorn maker.Even though you have to be careful not to burn the popcorn, and the plastic lid melted around the edges where it connects to the machine, it is a nice item overall. If it lasts longer, it would be even nicer. I don't regret buying it, I just hope I can get the problem resolved.

THE MORE YOU HEAR THIS CD,THE MORE YOU HATE IT!

In June 2001,I was raving about Alicia Keys like the next man.I,like everybody,thought that she was the best thing since white bread,well months later,I've came to the conclusion that Keys and her overrated debut,"Songs In A Minor" get on my last nerves!After a while,"Songs In A Minor" becomes annoying and redunant.And with the exception of a few numbers("Rock With You"..."Troubles"..."Mr. Man"),the songs BLOW!The production-for the most part-is OFF and her piano skills aren't that great."Girlfriend" sounds like a Britney Spearssong with a hip hop beat."Fallin'" sounds like a Mariah Carey outake.And even "Trouble" and "A Woman's Worth" come off likeMary J. Blige wannabes.This CD isn't all of that.This is what I call Prada Soul.Glossy,heavily marketed R&B; that tries to hide under a fake REAL SOUL banter.Unexposed "TRL" fans might go ga-ga over this but for real soul fans-this isn't cutting it...

Actually I give it a 10(faked the age)

This album is strictly dope. Before this album dropped, Kanye said in an interview that you could feel his soul in his music and it didn't matter who collabed on the cd. He was right. You can feel Kanye's heart in his music, unlike other artists in the game. Every song on this album is hot. I'll agree with other reviewers that there is too many skits on this album, but besides that it mixes perfect beats with surprisingly tight rhymes. There are some songs where Kanye is a lil rough and breathy, but he makes you forget about it later on.Great songs on the album(my favorites): "Two Words", "Through The Wire", "Jesus Walks", "Never Let You Down", and "Family Business"(Kanye's Greatest Lyricism).Guest appearences by Jay-Z, Freeway, Common, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, and Twista.Anyone who says this album's wack has rocks in they head and I'd be happy to beat em out.

Nothing New

Much as I hate an argument, I must point out that the previous reviewer is seriously misinformed if he thinks that the material in this book was in some way new or different from the original NLP.Terrence McCLendon, writing in "The Wild Days : NLP 1972-1981" explains in detail how Bandler and Grinder discovered Castaneda's work (the basis of "New Code" NLP) in 1974, and quickly incorporated various ideas - especially "stopping the world" - into their teaching at that time.Personally I found this book badly written and tedious in the extreme. So nothing new, and definitely not recommended.

C'mon, you KNOW you crank up the radio and play air drums in your car when you hear Mötley Crüe.Your mother and your girlfriend will probably complain about the movie, but that just means it's really funny.My friends and I will be quoting lines from this movie for a while just like we do with all the good ones.

Hard as it may be to believe it, the second season of "Wonder Showzen" is even more irreverant than the first, going so far as to include at least one episode of a (seemingly) completely different series --- intentionally, of course. It's a shame that only two seasons were made.

Chanel and Her World

I was disappointed in the text. I guess from the title I should have expected some world history. The story line is somewhat incoherent and doesn't seem to present her life very well. I had to use the index to find a couple lines of reference to her "Boy", a romance started in the story and then dropped, only to be finished much later and with no real detail. Either Chanel was very closed mouth about a lot of her life or the author didn't know her that well. Also, there are a lot of pictures of rather irrelevant items. I wouldn't purchase it again.

For those who do not know how to cook brown rice....

You have to add 50% more water when cooking brown rice. I read a couple of reviews that said it can only cook white rice. Follow the instructions it gives you for the different types of rice. That particular person must not have read the directions.Do not place it under cabinets. It won't hurt it right away, but after several times, may cause problems with the wood.Great value and product.

Not Worth It...

This cheaply made book may be able to claim that it contains all of Sorayama's images, but the reproduction quality is poor, on cheap paper, and many of the best images are split down the middle by the spine/seam of the book, making them look even cheaper than this book already makes them appear. Not worth your money, unless all you want are tiny lousy quality images on tissue paper. Sorayama deserves better.

both good and bad

the watch arrived about a week ago. i took it to the jeweler to have it sized. done. right away i noticed that it was losing time. i went back and read the instructions which were generic for several watches and not real clear. i called the customer service and spoke to a lady who was very helpful. she said that it was probably the battery and she would send me a replacement watch which she did at no cost to me whatsoever as long as i returned the original before the specified time. i returned i yesterday. in the interim sinced i had alrealy had the first watch sized, i chcck whther it was keeping time and it was so i kept it. it's still funcitoning correctly and i did place a black leather strrap on it and it looks great.

Space Amoeba

This film did have some interesting moments, but overall it is not one that I would recommend even for hard core science fiction fans and those who enjoy the films made by the Japanese studios. I was disappointed. I kept waiting for something significant to happen and it never did.

Sorry

This is Ally again, saying sorry for not giving this doll all the credit she deserved. Madison is BEUTIFUL and her dress is awsome and I love the socks showing, that is so cool, and her boots rock (her second outfit still sucks though). Her hair is big and awsome, it really goes with the outfit. Even though you can barly see it in the (terrible) picture, her lipstick has glitter in it, that is so neat it really goes with the theam of the outfit. you can acctualy get any doll's hair that big if you put her hair in a pony tail and thet split it (the hair in the pony tail) up into five braids, then just leave her hair like that for a few monthes (yeah I know it takes a long time) and then take all the braids out and you have an awsome (huge) hair do. I tryed it with my Chelsea and it was soooo cool.* *Ally* *Age 13God Bless

Very easy to use and it works!

I had never used a knife sharpening stick before, but this Lansky came with very clear instructions and is really easy to use. It even sharpened a knife that I was convinced was a lost cause. Great buy for the price and works well. I would definitely buy it again.

No Drama

I hate to give this book such a low rating but it was incredibly dull. This is coming from a relative of the subject! The title might lead you to believe the author will paint a tale of two persons and compare the sides, but in fact she tells you in the first few pages that she sees him as a visionary. There is nothing in the book that would suggest the subject was a villain at all. I have a great interest in Mr. Maxwell and I could not bring myself to finish this book - and this was my second attempt.

Gamer -Blu-ray

Directed by: Mark Neveldine and Brian TaylorStarring: Gerard ButlerRunning time: 95 min. R - 2009The movie "Gamer" stars Gerald Butler of "300" fame who is a convict used in a Call of Duty type virtual video game. If he wins 30 matches he gets his freedom, but the creator of the game has another agenda. The movie also has an interesting take on the game Sims, what if it were played using real people? "Gamer" has a similar feel to the prior movie I reviewed "Surrogates" although much more adult oriented. Not intended for kids at all despite being based around a video game.Buy it, it's that good.

Defective - two of these Xtreme quit working

I tried... twice. But both of these "toy toothbrushes" quit working. In the past I had a great experience with an older Sonicare toothbrush and was hoping for similar quality with this simpler, cheaper and replaceable battery powered device. No such luck. After a couple weeks it just stopped. Phillips was kind enough to replace it but the replacement also failed after a couple weeks. My advise is to avoid the Xtreme and buy the higher price device (or stick to the simple manual toothbrush).

Radiation Shielding

I have read 'Radiation Shielding' from cover to cover,and I must say that Shultis hit the nail on the head for almost every question I wanted answered.This book was very helpful in that it provided great detail for shielding procedures, step by step,unlike many other books I read.The only problem I found with this textbook is that the binding on it is weak,and comes off easily. Plus the pages have a strong smell of sulfur(fart) .This was probably due to a problem with the manufacture of the paper,but don't worry,it's not that bad.Thumbs up.Great book.

The Control Mechanism is What?

Lipton's initial presentation of a string of fun discoveries from the history of science is suddenly interrupted by a clunker of a punch line.Lipton lost me when he stated on disc #2 that the control mechanism for cellular membranes is obviously field broadcasts from the eternal beings of the spirit world.I know he is mistaken here because the results of my own laboratory experiments clearly show that the control mechanism for cellular membranes is either 1) God, 2) The Flying Spaghetti Monster, 3) Aliens or 4) Pokemon.I will read more of Lipton's work when he finds a way to scientifically test his hypothesis. Perhaps then he can disprove mine.

Excellent. But, doesn't last forever

I don't know how long a track ball like this is "supposed" to last. I bought this one as a replacement for one I've had for a few years. I use my track ball all day every day and have had just about every type of mouse or track ball there is. This is very reasonably priced, comfortable and performs great on my iMac. I also have the model that is a little less expensive on my PC.I bought the second Trackman because the scroll wheel on my original one had stopped working. While I was waiting for the second one to arrive, the first started working again. I'll hold onto the other one though because I'm sure I'll wear the second one out.... someday...

Sooo much better than the Boppy!!

I LOVE THIS!Why? Because my prego wife loves it.I first got her the famous boppy, but it wasnt that great. It was too thin and when she wanted to move to her other side it required her to pull up the pillow and reset it. So we bought this one. I was worried it would be too short (the ad has what looks like a short lady) but that was not the case.It was MUCH thicker and it made my wife much more comfortable, especially when she needed to flip over.The only drawback was it didnt come with a soft slip cover. I guess you have to buy that separately. We decided to skip it for now.You cant go wrong with this.Frank

2 week and seeing results

I absolutely love this video. After a long day of work I use to find it difficult to get my self out of the couch and do a daily workout. But 12 minutes doesn't seem difficult, and helps me overcome the reluctance to work out. And usually after I do a 12-min session I feel more energized. I especially love the toning sessions, as I have done it for about 2 weeks now and have been feeling results!

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!

I bought this DVD all excited to watch this phenominal movie at home. What a disappointment. The sound quality is slightly muffled and the picture quality is horrible. The colors are dull and "smudgy." I have to tell my 5 year old son what they're saying and doing, because its so hard to see and hear. I contacted Amazon to return it, but they said I have to pay a 20% restocking fee since I opened it.Terrible.AND...don't expect anything but the movie. No special features....nothing. Just the movie.Save your money until whatever next edition they're putting out. It seems like they threw this thing together to make another billion. No Quality.

What clock? I can't even see it...

First of all I received this clock and the "auto set" feature didn't work out of the box...nice. Then the LED's are so dim that you can hardly see it at night. If you have it on your nightstand and you're a couple feet away, it may be ok. If you plan on using it let's say, in your living room, well maybe you'd better look at something else. I'm going to return it. Enough said.

Marine propaganda

I received this book as a Christmas present and am grateful that at least my money was not wasted on it. While to a certain extent it chronicles the miraculous survival of a military outfit, the author delves too much into petty squabbles with the U.S. Army, into trivial and inane reflections of the solidiers involved, and into racial and sexual biases. I was much more interested in learning the details of this operation than I was in the personal prejudices of soldiers, which were borne out in virtually every page of the book. I concur with a fellow reviewer that additional maps should have been enclosed to assist the reader to more easily digest information. This is not a piece of literature by any stretch of the imagination; it is, instead, simply a work of Marine propaganda and I now think much less of the U.S. Marine Corps than I did before I read this awful book.

They weren't kidding...

Review actually provided by Stephen Andrew Lynch, this was a gift for him:Perfect pushups give you a MUCH better workout when doing pushups. Also, they make it very difficult to injure your tendones, etc. due to the natural rotation's tendency to spread the weight across multiple points on the arms. Works more muscle groups. Only complaint: the grips can be a bit hard on the hands after a while.

Fan's #1 Request - Don't Screw it Up

There are songs that should never be re-interpreted or covered, and if released as a tribute, should not shame the original work.I was in several bands, I'm no stranger to criticism, so I'm just going to be blunt. The Carpet Crawlers is one of the most beautiful songs sung by Peter Gabriel, and it is not a challenge to be taken lightly. The singer on this tribute is not soulful, morose, soft and lovely, but is instead whiny and in no way soothing. More importantly, they somehow turned it into a whiny soft-rock song with soprano - I booooo you. I mean, wow. I appreciate that the singers are not English, and maybe there are cultural differences, but once I heard the strings kick in, that was it. Fail. Epic. Irredeemable.I condemn this cover, equate it with the ET video game of the 1980's, and wash my hands of it.

One good song does not a CD make

If you project the quality of 'In Love w/ a Girl' to the rest of the album, then you've made the same mistake I have. That song is killer, but in no way represents the rest of the songs contained on the CD. You might find 1 or 2 other songs that are catchy tunes, but overall, unless you like really raw, amateurish performances devoid of any complexity, you'll be left disappointed.

Great At Home Workout!

I really like this workout DVD. It's perfect for me on those evenings when I just can't make it to the gym but still want a real workout. Her method works. She gets you to work out those troubled areas and muscles that you may not always get to when working out at the gym. Although she says to do the routine 4 to 6 times a week it can get boring. I try to do it 3 times a week. I would definitey recommend this DVD and plan to purchase the Post Pregnancy DVD after my child is born.

Wonderful!!

I bought this mat for my 11 week old daughter, and was very disappointed at first with how little it held her attention (except for the mirror). Then at 12 weeks, she became absoulutely enthralled by it, staring at the animals and talking to herself in the mirror. Now at 14 weeks, she bats at the toys, plays on her tummy with the lights and laughs at the monkey, her favorite of the animals. I recommend it, but I also recommend that you be patient, and don't expect magic the first day. Give it time, you and your baby will get a kick out of it.
