0	BOBW is Bad, Just Plain Bad!	No wonder Warner Brothers dumped Van Halen years ago if BOBW is all they can do. I am very sorry I bought this hunk of junk. Nothing but a Van ReHash album with 3 new singles that are a total joke. It is obvious no real thought went into making the 3 new tracks or BOBW. And why would anyone mix Van Roth and Van Hagar years tracks together. Just totally stupid!	negative
0	Disappointed	An earlier work. Craftmanship lacking and plot seems contrived. Some beautiful discriptions of natural world of Amish - were repeated almost word for word.Her later works - Abram's Daughters and Seasons of Grace are very much improved and they drove me to continue delving backwards to read her earlier work. How much I enjoy Beverly Lewis and she has spurned me on to read other authors and non-fiction books about the Amish. This book and Sanctuary are not examples of her fine writing and ability to capture Amish life and faith.	negative
1	I love this cd!	This cd is GREAT!! I bought it and it hasn't left my cd player since. *N Sync is the greatest band in the world. The members sound graeat together, and they look great in the videos. Their dance moves are so 'in sync' that they live up to their name!	positive
1	I believe I've met these people	An engaging story about people who seem real. For me, the adventures of everyday life, such as this novel portrays, are fully challenging and more interesting than the wild plot twists some authors concoct for novelty. The book has a a sweetness as well as a starkness that seem to match my experience of life and Anna Quindlen is such a sharp observer of humans that I love seeing the world through her eyes for the length of a book.	positive
0	What?	What was this movie about? This has to be the worst movie I've seen in my entire life. I'd rather watch a Shaq movie marathon than ever watch this again.Also, see K. Johnson's review. I totally agree with that, but I don't want to plagerize. >:-P	negative
0	Bait and switch!!	I want what I ordered.You did not send me what I ordered. Graphing Calculator with Memory, Equation Solver, Statistics, Black TEXTI83PLUS; Thats what I ordered and thats what I want. Don't try tobait and switch me.Not cool amazon...not cool at all!	negative
0	Not for gift giving across the miles and non-health nuts	While the majority of the recipes are delicous, the serious draw back of this book is that the majority of the concoctions require refridgeration and need to be discarded after a week. This book is a great idea for those who may want to whip up a quick hostess gift when visiting a neighbor for dinner but not so great for those who want to blitz their gift lists and make items in bulk for holiday gift giving.	negative
1	Niece Loved It!	I got this for my youngest niece's birthday present. Now her older siblings all want one.	positive
1	A little uncomfortable	I use the BT620s with the Jabra A125s adapter for the IPOD. Good combo and sounds fine once you adjust the EQ on the IPOD to get the high end frequency. Headphones are a little uncomforatble and look goofy. You sort of look like Princess Leah but if your > 50 who cares?	positive
1	Entertaining!	Angela Jolie...what more can I say, combined with Depp I thought they had very good chemistry together which made this movie very enjoyable to watch, the plot was a little on the thin side but the ending was a semi-surprise.Entertaing movie especially if you enjoy Depp or Jolie, not a deep movie but you will not be checking your watch.	positive
1	good stuff	this is the best tonic on the market IMHOI feed it to dogs and they seem to like to flavorbut it is expensive compared to other brands	positive
1	Good product	For a beginner like myself this amp was a godsend. I was considering paying the extra money to have a store wire it, But I found a good deal on this amp and a set of xplod 10's, and decided to Go it alone, so as to put that money into the car rather than installation. And it was a really good choice.With the xplod 10's this kicks butt. Look for a dented rusty ghetto minivan in my area... It has good sound, even if its ugly. I would reccomend this to anyone with a desire for more music, but a medium range budget.	positive
1	Really nice looking watch	Very attractive, especially for a sports watch. It doesn't look budget at all and can easy be worn even when you aren't actually exercising. It's easy to read and has nice options for timing, laps, etc.	positive
0	Very adhesive, not very durable or cohesive, March 16, 2009	I have used dozens of brands of pad electrodes for TENS. These are the stickiest I have encountered, staying stuck in situations others would fall off. That is, sadly, their only saving grace. The adhesive tends to pull off in small sticky gobs during removal and cleaning. The leads are held in place very poorly, ripping completely out of the pads in some instances.	negative
1	Useful, informative, and visually entertaining	I enjoyed the large amount of illustrations and the nice color section. A broad range of musical genres is covered and is the most complete and detailed cataloging of sleeves to date.	positive
0	Yes Marshall Mathers, Please Take A Bow.	Because you are FINISHED. Your "moment in the sun" and 15 minutes is up pal. Oh, and don't let the door hit you on the way out. Thank-you and good riddance.	negative
0	Flimsy and not very good	This heater gave off quite a bit of heat, but was of flimsy quality and was very sensitive. It needed to sit "just so" in order to work at all...and it would cut out often. After only a few months it simply stopped working all together.	negative
0	If there is a Zero star I will not hesitate to give it	This is one of the "junk movies" that intend to defame people of other cultures and relegions. I would give it a bold "0" stars.	negative
0	Lousy DVD	The season one dvd was not 16x9, does not have closed captions, nor did not allow selection of chapters (scenes). In summary, it has the technical status of pre-1990's collections. Even the MacGyver dvds were more sophisticated. I am especially perturbed that they claim to be closed-captioned, because I need the captioning. Before some ignorant wag recommends that I simply turn up the volume ... how effective is shouting at a deaf person?	negative
1	Watch the sizes... But great life jacket!	This is an excellent life jacket for dogs, but my Westie should have fit easily in the medium, but it was too big, the small was way too small. The flotation part itself is workable, but I had to make new straps as they would not go small enough on the medium, and the small's flotation part was too small for proper protection and fit!	positive
1	Great service !!	I got this book in record time and it is in excellent condition. I don't buy books any other way except through Amazon now. Always the best deal and so convenient. Love it.	positive
0	Buy Another Alarm Clock	I bought this alarm clock after my last one went out and after just one night completely hated it. Don't let the box fool you. You cannot choose the track you want to wake up to. Turning off the alarm clock in the morning is hard the alarm clock itself is even difficult to set and make sure you have it right. The BIG button at the bottom isn't even what shuts off the alarm it's the snooze button the alarm off button is this super tiny button at the top left which is very hard to find the morning while you are still rubbing sleep from your eyes. Please spare yourself the pain and look at a different alarm clock.	negative
0	Unwatchable	Let me first say that I adore Brit drama/period productions. I enjoy the slow pace of these types of productions, where character development reigns over special effects or excessive violence and sensuality.That being said, this production made absolutely NO sense and I finally had to turn the movie off after watching over 1 hour. In vain did I try to "get into" it, but as there was no plot, no storyline nor any characters to develop that I could find (believe me, I tried), I gave up in frustration.I give kudos to those of you who not only understood it, but actually liked it as well. I concede defeat on both counts!	negative
1	An essential, if imperfect, guide for Anime fans.	This is solid an knowledgeable work, and an excellentresource for anyone new to Anime (Japanese Animation).The first half of the book covers the history and cultureof Anime, and is thorough and well-researched. Thesecond half gives quick synopses of the Anime titlesavailable on video in the US. This section is slightlyweaker: it is dating rapidly (unavoidable in such a work),and the synopses tend to be back-of-the-video stuff andnot always too informative.On the whole, though, well worth buying.	positive
1	Helpful on key points	"How to Be a Happy Lesbian" does two things better than other books I have read concerning lesbian sex. The first is an excellent chapter talking about safer sex, complete with a long list and descriptions of STD's and other issues affecting lesbians. This is a more complete list than I have seen in my other purchases. The second item I found very helpful was a chapter on therapy and therapists. I had no prior experience with therapy and needed background on the process. The information contained here gave me starting points for more research, and I have since found a therapist who fits my needs as a latebloomer very well.	positive
0	not that good	This cd has it's good songs but it has more bad songs. I got this cd because I liked Over off her first cd but this cd kind of sucks. There are about 3 songs I like out of all 12. So if your looking for a good cd don't look to Lindsay Lohan's "A Little More Personal (raw)"	negative
1	Fun bargain book from the early 1980s.	This cheap little paperback, printed on bulk-rate paper, isn't a gem of strategy, but it is a nice period piece for looking at the early days of "the video games." In today's marketplace of photorealistic 3D graphics, 5.1 surround sound, and internet-enabled play, it's fun to go back and see what people really valued back then: gameplay. Sure, we talk about "gameplay over graphics" nowadays, but it really meant something back then.	positive
1	I blurted out laughing so many times!! Mama Ruby is Madea	The narrator did such a fantastic job with bringing all the characters to life. The book is off the hook! Terrifying and funny at the same time. The story is crazy and makes me think about history. I sure hope people didn't live like this for real but I am sure they did. Mama Ruby thinks that satan is a low down, black, funky dog who has the strength of 10 bulls! This is the real life Tyler Perry's Madea.	positive
1	works good ,but noisey	The HONEYWELL HFD-130 ,works well. IT CLEANS THE AIR as advertised and the filter is easy to clean, the gauge on top is a usefull tool . The down side is , the fan noise, other than low is to loud at night to sleep through . even across the room.To some people its proably ok , I just dont like that type of sound when sleeping. Other than that a good product, at a good price.	positive
0	Shipped poorly	The product arrived in a "velvet" pouch. The chain was in a complete knot and I was unable to untangle. I ended up breaking the chain and purchasing a new one, as there was not time to return before Christmas. I would think twice before purchasing necklaces from Amazon again. Disappointed to say the least.	negative
1	Good, in-depth introduction to Carmelite Spirituality.	Probe me, God, know my heart; try me, know my thoughts. See if my way is crooked, then lead me in the ancient paths. (Psalm 139) The Carmelite Way is indeed a spiritual guide book along the ancient path up Mount Carmel. The author uses his knowledge and insights to provide an historical overview of the foundations of this Religious Order and also points out its fundamental beliefs and visions. St. Teresa of Avila and St. John of the Cross ( two of the more well known and major influences in the Order) are used extensively throughout the book to illustrate important concepts. The Carmelite Way has helped me better understand my Order's rich traditions and "roots". It will also be very useful to anyone searching for a deeper spiritual understanding. Read the book and come join us as we journey in Carmel	positive
1	Good product	I was doubtful about liking this, but I bought it anyway. It is nutty and good. I just add a little butter, salt, and pepper. I don't want to wait the long time it takes to cook on a regular stovetop. I've read articles that state that brown rice is better than white rice for diabetics, too, so, if that is an issue for you, or could be, take that into consideration.	positive
0	Farnsworth....	My contracts professor worships this guy and assigns regular readings from this text. I really don't understand the overwhelmingly positive reviews. I find Farnsworth's style to be horribly boring and his explanations, while excellent, are much more easily obtained from other sources. For example, the E&E for contracts touches on most of the same concepts (albeit in less detail) as Farnsworth, in a much more readable and understandable format. Chemerinsky's "ship book" is also an excellent supplement. For diehard contracts junkies, Farnsworth probably rocks, but if you're just looking to understand the information and do well in class, I would go with some other book.	negative
1	Rereading a great book	I bought this book years ago and was incredibly inpsired by it. At the time I was determined to do my dissertation on Victorian women travelers - I couldn't think of anything more fascinating (imagine the research this would have entailed!) I ended up doing my dissertaion on George Eliot, but after many years I'm back dipping into this wonderful book. As a writer, a Victorianist, and and armchair traveler, it's a great book for fueling my dreams.	positive
0	She's so talented (at sampling)!	Yeah, I'd like to see her actually play that riff from Chopin's Winter Wind Etude, let alone sing at the same time. Please, it's actually insulting to REAL pianists. I have to agree with the other reviewer who pointed out the single critical factor of her success: LOOKS.Contrast Keys to Beyonce. Although Beyonce, too, owes most of her success to her looks, at least she can sing without going overboard, and she even has some signature vocal riffs which set her apart. Alicia Keys has NOTHING innovative, plus her voice is rather weak and stale. So she tries to compensate with relentless vocal acrobatics, and it's EXASPERATING.Oh, and just because she writes her own music, unlike most in hip-hop/R&B, doesn't mean it's good. Stevie Wonder she's not.Basically, Keys falls into the category of overrated, overhyped egos who can't dance. Like Mary J Blige... Oh no, don't get me started on her...	negative
1	I love This soo MuCh	This is one awesome anime and the dvd box set rules so hard!! This is the season where pluto and neptune come out. I love those 2!!! if you are a sm fan u will buy this!	positive
1	It does exactly what it was made to do.	Does exactly what its supposed to do. After buying this spatula, made especially for frosting cakes, my only regret, is that I didn't discover it 40 years ago. I'll never use a butter knife again. it;s thin enough to bend when you need it to and strong enough to take heavy frostings! I recommend it.	positive
1	Hume	This was great. It was a short work, about 50 pages, but contained some great philosophy herein. Natural Religion has fascinated me, and this work helped me work through some issues	positive
1	My Music	this is a great CD by wonderful artists and musicians. this man is still great at his age. wonderful listening to him.	positive
1	Like a hike with good friends ...	A Blistered Kind of Love is a terrific account of one couple as they trek the Pacific Crest Trail. The narrative alternates between authors Angela and Duffy Ballard, and that sets the book apart from other hiking memoirs. Seeing the hike from both perspectives invites the reader to share the experience with greater depth than most single-perspective narratives. It's almost as if we get to alternate sharing the trail with each author, hearing ones view of the trail tale before we hang back and join the other, listening to the same story with that author's particular way of looking at the adventure. Very quickly, the reader gets the sense of being on a hike with good friends. It helps that both writers do a terrific job of letting us see through their eyes. This book is strongly recommended for hikers, adventurers, and people interested in the way relationships develop in extreme situations.	positive
0	unsatisfied!	i have a psp slim, the itrip willnot even plug into the slim. someone needs to change the discription to let people know that it won't fit any "psp" only the older larger ones. it was a waste of my money	negative
0	No music	This CD came and we could not get it to play on any thing....computer or CD player. Do not know why but we sent it back.	negative
0	George Soros' wet dream	I love several of HG Wells novels. The First Men in the Moon, the War in the Air, the Time Machine are some of my favorite literary works. Unfortunately, many of his later works were full of Fabian Socialist Utopian ideas that essentially say if the stupid masses would just get out of the way and the "right people" were to make decisions for everyone, the world would be a great place. Of course, in novels, these people never want anything but the greater good. Of course, in reality, everyone who espouses these ideals, such as the aforementioned Soros, really want wealth and power for themselves. As a result, this is a simpleminded and boring approach to a future history novel. If it weren't written by HG Wells, probably no one would pick it up. While the movie made from this book, "Things to Come", is worth watching, don't waste your time with this preachy and silly book.	negative
1	Great replacement batteries	I have an Olympus E-510 and the original batteries have worn out so I ordered these cheap replacement batteries and they work great!!!	positive
1	Love it...light...easy	I've gone to all battery power. It's light and my yard isn't huge. I just take ten minutes when I get home from work and clean things up. I did order an extra battery so I never have to wait to finish....just in case I get obsessed with those little stragglers.	positive
0	Amazing at first.	I was very surprised at how strong the beam was initially. Problem was that the unit is very cheaply made and the contact point with the button became loose by the 2nd hour of operation. This resulted in an inconsistent beam that worked only part of the time.	negative
0	Well writen, but incorrect Hawaiian history	This book has some beautiful writing and a decent plot. As someone who grew up in Hawaii during the times when this story takes place I resent that this fiction book presents Hawaiian history in such a biased manner. It was hard for me to enjoy the book knowing that many of the situations were in fact not true and that many readers would believe them to be true Hawaiian history. Remenber the book is fiction!!	negative
0	Fantastic art... horrible read	John Cassady is one of the most talented superhero artists outside of Alex Ross. It is VERY unfortunate that the story that accompanies his art is so bad.This book is a shining example of: "Great art does not a comic book make". The story revolves around Captain Americas activities after 9-11 of 2001. It shifts, with little explanation, from one series of events to another. There is WAY too much exposition between scenes which makes for a very boring read.	negative
0	Works fine just doesn't fit the 240z	This product worked fine but he fittings you need on either end are not included. I even tried going to several hardware stores to fashion my own pieces which are rivited onto the original at either end. It won't fit on the car without these. I ended up finding one on Craigslist for about $7 and I suggest you check your classifieds and junkyards to find this part.	negative
0	Dubwar - 'Pain' (Earche Records) 2 1/2 stars	Heard this band has had some success in Europe,so I assume they're trying for an American fan base.Their sound is somewhat complex.They combine funk,metal,punk and hip-hop.Didn't really do all THAT much for me.A couple of tracks I thought were 'okay' were "Mental","Respected" and the heavy-duty "Spiritual Warfare".If you're into the likes Fishbone,Bad Brains and Living Colour,you'll most likely get more out of this CD than I did.	negative
1	Good book, won't let you get bored, Information for success across countries	Really like it. It has several true stories, perception of people from different culture. It lets you understand the meaning of business and success for different countries. It is a book for those who have to work across cultures and countries.	positive
0	If I could only give this 0 stars	Unfortunately for me, I bought this book based on previous recommendations. This has to be the most simplistic and illogical legal thriller I've ever read--it makes John Grisham seem like high brow reading. I couldn't even bear to finish it--I skipped through to the ending and it was as badly written thought out as I had expected. I'm glad I didn't bother to read the last 200 pages.	negative
1	just what i needed - a bit itchy	no major complaints here... just a bit itchy. remember that the hat is long and needs to roll up quite a bit to fit on your head. not a short one like steve zissou wears in life aquatic.	positive
1	From one reader to another	This is a delightful tale about a dog named Keeper. The story is narrated by Keeper from a dog's point of view. He takes us back to when he was just a puppy born behind a restaurant and separated from his brothers and sisters and eventually his mother. All alone, Keeper sets out to find his family, especially his sister Wispy. His journey is filled with adventure that puts him in different situations. He becomes a homless man's companion, a photographer's model, and a little girl's pet. It is also peppered with danger as Keeper makes and eventually fights his enemy Scar a tough, mean dog from the streets. It is not without its tender moments either as Keeper and his long lost sister Wispy are eventuallly reunited! If you love dogs you'll love this story. Even if you don't I think you will enjoy it all the same. It is a story for all ages and tastes. So "stay" and read for awhile!	positive
0	Ok but not great	Not so sure I really like this course so much because it seems pretty out of touch for a course on colloquial language. It could use a bit of sprucing up in my opinion.	negative
0	Beautiful, broken, and upset.	I had just gotten the lasagna pan for christmas. I fell in love with it the moment i saw it. I recently moved in with my fiancee and have been having a hard time with finding things in the house to make due with for cooking things in the oven. So when i got the pan, i loved it. The color was amazing and it was the perfect size. I couldnt wait to use it.I had only used it TWICE when i came home to a broken pan. My fiancee said that when he was washing the dishes he noticed it was leaking, and then it broke in an almost straight line, leaving two big broken pieces and me very upset. I cant say for the rest of the Sango sets or pieces, but i can say that i know i will not be purchasing this brand.	negative
1	Simply the converter	Before this cd was recomended to me, I enjoyed the likes of Elton John, Whitney, Mariha, Presley, people like that. Too many to mention. Maybe i'm easy pleased, i don't know. But if I am, then i'm in the majority. Opera was taboo, but not now. This cd is a wake eup call for me, and I have spread the wealth and been thanked. If, as many critics say, this woman is weak, then what a treat awaits me because I love this album, and can't wait to be subject to more of the same, if not better . The duets are just incredible, I love Cura, Bocelli, and have invested in thier albums and videos already. But Brightman does it for me. Boy does she have a set of lungs on her. She has a great voice, and I am in the process of buying everything she has ever done. I urge all to give this album a go. It will alter your taste in music forever. If I was Siskel And Ebert, I would give it two very enthuasiastic thumbs up. Buy Buy Buy.	positive
0	Strange Indeed...	...that Robinson's latest books have become as pedestrian as this one. I found the plot uninspiring at best, and completely devoid of surprises. All in all, one could skip this entry and not miss a thing. As always, Robinson is a good writer, and he's brought Banks to an interesting -- albeit depressing -- psychological place, but one can't help but feel that he and the series are simply treading water at this point. If only the entire book were as brilliant and incisive as the very last line. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the next one.	negative
0	Not very insightful or informative.	As an introduction to hospitals, this is the most basic and uninsightful text. Not very informative. Not well written. If you really want to understand hospitals and their operation, this is not the book.	negative
0	Uninteresting and Dangerous to the World	This book is not a good read unless the reader is a crime novel enthusiast. The story is about a couple that has been married for 24 years. The past few years were not great. On a Wednesday morning, they are sitting across the dining table, the wife realizes how much she hates the husband, and wants to murder him, which she thinks she should have done years ago. But the husband has already made plans to murder her. They make several unsuccessful murder attempts. The mystery is about these attempts and not about who is the killer/victim. The author has tried to make all this humorous!	negative
0	nope	this was my first book by john saul and it was very dissapointing. i didnt care much for the characters and found the story quite stupid.now, i didnt gave up on this author and im reading these days "suffer the children" ... a different story on this one. very good. when i finish it i will gladly make my review... ... but the god project; silly.	negative
0	They moved on and left me behind	With this album New Order started to do their own thing, well distinct from the sound of Joy Division which was still prominently featured in the previous album "Movement".On the plus side they honestly decided not to capitalize on whatever success JD had enjoyed, and moved on. On the minus side - dammit - I had happened to like Joy Division and New Order's new sound was not only completely different, but considerably more commercial (according to me, at least).In retrospect it might not have been a complete sell out, but I judged it as such at the time: this album sounds much more mainstream that anything they had done before. Good for them, but they lost me in the way.About the only song I like out of this album is "Leave me alone", needless to say it's the one more reminiscent of their past.	negative
1	Good	Yes, the book is a good one, even flows and transitions between ideas very nicely. only problem that i have with the book... is that quite a bit of the information should already be known by all.	positive
1	Great teaching tool	This crocodile is so much fun! My children can't wait to practice! And they can work without my involvement!	positive
1	Shoulder Pulley	Product received promptly and in good condition. This was purchased for my mother who is recuperating from a broken shoulder. The only thing I didn't like is that there is no way to change the resistance (there is none).	positive
0	Repetitious	Unless you have had your head buried in the sand for the last 5 years this will not be new. If you want a re statement of "values" questions raised in the popular media, don't look for clarity here. Did anyone edit this book, organize it or eliminate redundancy? Speeches seem to have been written down in a stream of consciousness manner and piled in a book that rambles from election 2004 going backward to the turn of the millennium. For clarity begin by reading his 50 predictions for the new millennium located at the very end of the book because the rest was very disappointing.	negative
1	Rugged yet good looking	My husband absolutely loves the Riggs brand of shorts and long pants. They are well-made and stand up to a hard working man's day. They are sometimes difficult to find, but I always find what I want on Amazon.	positive
0	horrible	after communicating through email 6 different times, they still can't get my mail address right,I say "apt 4609" and they don't even know what "apt" stands for in an address! afterwords, I said thats my apartment number....4609, so she said "ok" I'll mail it to 4906! <~~ wrong number!!! all in all, I will not use them again.it was a Christmas present, and I still haven't got it! ( Jan 10 )	negative
0	It doesn't come with AC adaptor in U.S.	I bought it because it said that it comes with AC adaptor. But you know what, the AC power adaptor is not supplied with USA, Cannadian models. I felt like been cheated. At least they should have let me know that I am getting. Maybe next time I should check with the stores first before I get anything on-line.	negative
0	Low quality, poor customer service	I love making bread. I have 3 machines and the breadman is the worst quality I've seen. After only a few dozen loaves of bread there were ware spots on the inside of the pan which caused the bread to stick. When I reported this to customer service they put me through numerous hoops only to tell me at the end that they would sell me a new pan for an outragious amount of money.My least expensive machine, an Oster, has made over 100 loaves of bread and has no problems. I use it mainly for making dough that I then place in other pans to bake now. Although it bakes well too I prefer a different shape of loaf.My Zojirushi is fantastic and it makes a more traditionally shaped loaf of bread so I use it for most loaves that I allow to cook in the machine.So I would say go for the inexpensive Oster or go up to the Zojirushi. The only thing the breadman has going for it is its stainless steel pretty looks and this will not help your bread at all.	negative
0	A complete waste of money!	If you want to learn Dreamweaver do not buy this book. This is the required book for a college class I am taking on Dreamweaver- it is an awful book. No explanations, just lots of click here, do this, do that. They don't tell you why you are doing what you are doing. The instructions are unclear- I often cannot find what button or command they are referring to. Everyone in the class is having these problems. The instructor is having to walk us through all of the exercises that we should be able to do on our own with the book. I have learned nothing from this book.	negative

1	Good To Catch Up On The Seasons	This product is a great way to get the first five and a half season on DVD. The CD zipper case which holds all the seasons is a good idea but some of the DVD's can get scratched; mine fortunately did not though. The ping pong set and poker set are a cute idea but I don't really play the games. I think this product is a bit overpriced for what you get. If you don't plan on using the Ping pong set or the poker set I would say just buy the DVD's individually.	positive
1	Great Birdbath!	This is the second one I have had. The first one lasted over 10 years and was working before being destroyed in a severe storm. It has performed when the temp. was nearly "0". Sturdy construction. I would recommend!	positive
1	well worth it	These little gems are the cheapest way to repair the door handle when the clips break. While not the easiest, it's much cheaper than purchasing a new door handle or door. I found a "you-tube" video on how to replace these and all told it took about an hour of labor. My latch now functions properly and has for several months. Well worth it.	positive
1	Excellent detector, poor mount	I've been using the Escort 8500 x50 detector with the blue display for about 6 months. It has some features that are really quite good: really good range, alert sound dims after the first few beeps, easy programing (if you want to, although it's ready to use out of the box), great rejection of false signals. The one negative is the window suction mount that comes with the unit... its flimsy, and tends to fall off the windshield, especially with temperature changes. What I did is purchase a much better radar detector mount through Amazon ([...]) sold by The Mount Guys for #12.95 + shipping, This mount is much better than the one that comes with the radar detector plus it can be used as a windshield mount or a dash mount (all the hardware needed to mount it on the windshield or dash is included). I chose to mount it on my dashboard (as in the photo on the amazon page).Radar Detector Car Dash and Windshield Mount	positive
0	Less than spectacular	I've been plowing my way through my library's collection of SW's books and I've enjoyed them all so far - except this one. Emotions were mentioned, but not explored. Some of the writing was repetitive and irritating. The whole thing was just not that great. It had the potential to be outstanding though, had she spent the time then that she does now on character and plot development.	negative
1	We had to move to Seattle to learn to cook Tex-Mex	Because, why bother when you live in Texas? Go get the enchilada plate anywhere!But, in the Pacific Northwest, my family often had cravings. We bought this book, and we have really loved every recipe we have tried. I love the variety of enchilada recipes, and the green chili chicken casserole was excellent. The advice to make your own chili powder was so spot on, we haven't bought any since then! The historical background of the cuisine really makes an interesting read, too.I have recommended this book in particular to two folks now, and it was time to write the raving review this book deserves.	positive

0	This is a Bohemian flick	After 10 minutes, I had enough. First of all, the visual clarity could have been done a whole lot better, especially with the technology at our disposal. Secondly, this film reminds me of the psychedelic 70's or something. No worse, it reminds me of something you would see during an hallucination on LSD. The music was psychedelic, the drawings were psychedelic, and the constant frontal, nudity scenes gave me nausea. The film gave me a headache!	negative
1	External 2.5 IDE HDD Enclosure case	Worked exactly as advertised right out of the box, no additional software required. Took less time to assemble that it's taking to write this review. Allowed me to recover the data from my blue-screened laptop. Case seems pretty lightweight, so long-term use may be sketchy especially if it gets dropped ( the sleeve that comes free with the case is too lightweight to help much if the unit is dropped). But, the cost was EXCELLENT, delivery was right on time and best of all the unit performed as expected. Overall, a great value, even if perhaps questionable for long-term use.	positive

0	Makes them sound human	Wow... this cd makes In Flames sound average at best. Very poorly produced and the vocals are terrible. The guitars, when in harmony, sound off key and the timing is off. There is some improvization present, which makes this a fairly interesting listen. At one point, they break down into "Raining Blood", which while cool, has been done by just about every band out there. Hell, Strung Out pulled it off better. That shouldn't be. There are gaps in vocals where it seems that Anders took a break and had a smoke, or it trying to coax the crowd into singing along. Either way, nothing shows up. They should really try to do another live album, and really nail the production. I have heard other live albums from other metal bands (Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera) and those blow this away. Its not even close. Still, if you are into In Flames, it is fun to listen to. It is a good cd to learn their music to if you play guitar because everything is fairly easy to pick out. Rock on.	negative

When she is killed in a suspicious hit-n-run accident, Albert is easy prey for two characters who try to con his considerable money which he won as an expert ice fisherman. His employer rounds out the cast as a good guy who has Albert's best interests in mind and tries to shield him from the con artists.

0	Lengthy Soliloquies on Boring Themes	A collection of stories has more latitude in shorting plot and characterization than a novel does, but this collection's stories goes way overboard in exiguity. All but one of the pieces -- or perhaps two -- seem a farrago of odd, un-reviewed essays and are too often encumbered by poorly edited, impertinent footnotes.I liked one of the stories -- about a sexual predator with a birth defect. His character was well-defined, and the story had punch -- it was a full 360 degree view of the practice of a particular perversity.The other stories -- e.g., the boy at the pool, the toilet minder, the girl who was violated -- I found flabby and pointless artistically. I found particularly silly the story of the toilet minder, a story I would have to characterize as a sad pushcart of childish scatology.	negative

No wonder Warner Brothers dumped Van Halen years ago if BOBW is all they can do. I am very sorry I bought this hunk of junk. Nothing but a Van ReHash album with 3 new singles that are a total joke. It is obvious no real thought went into making the 3 new tracks or BOBW. And why would anyone mix Van Roth and Van Hagar years tracks together. Just totally stupid!

Disappointed

An earlier work. Craftmanship lacking and plot seems contrived. Some beautiful discriptions of natural world of Amish - were repeated almost word for word.Her later works - Abram's Daughters and Seasons of Grace are very much improved and they drove me to continue delving backwards to read her earlier work. How much I enjoy Beverly Lewis and she has spurned me on to read other authors and non-fiction books about the Amish. This book and Sanctuary are not examples of her fine writing and ability to capture Amish life and faith.

An engaging story about people who seem real.

Not for gift giving across the miles and non-health nuts

While the majority of the recipes are delicous, the serious draw back of this book is that the majority of the concoctions require refridgeration and need to be discarded after a week. This book is a great idea for those who may want to whip up a quick hostess gift when visiting a neighbor for dinner but not so great for those who want to blitz their gift lists and make items in bulk for holiday gift giving.

Good product

For a beginner like myself this amp was a godsend. I was considering paying the extra money to have a store wire it, But I found a good deal on this amp and a set of xplod 10's, and decided to Go it alone, so as to put that money into the car rather than installation. And it was a really good choice.With the xplod 10's this kicks butt. Look for a dented rusty ghetto minivan in my area... It has good sound, even if its ugly. I would reccomend this to anyone with a desire for more music, but a medium range budget.

Very adhesive, not very durable or cohesive, March 16, 2009

I have used dozens of brands of pad electrodes for TENS. These are the stickiest I have encountered, staying stuck in situations others would fall off. That is, sadly, their only saving grace. The adhesive tends to pull off in small sticky gobs during removal and cleaning. The leads are held in place very poorly, ripping completely out of the pads in some instances.

Lousy DVD

The season one dvd was not 16x9, does not have closed captions, nor did not allow selection of chapters (scenes). In summary, it has the technical status of pre-1990's collections. Even the MacGyver dvds were more sophisticated. I am especially perturbed that they claim to be closed-captioned, because I need the captioning. Before some ignorant wag recommends that I simply turn up the volume ... how effective is shouting at a deaf person?

This is an excellent life jacket for dogs, but my Westie should have fit easily in the medium, but it was too big, the small was way too small. The flotation part itself is workable, but I had to make new straps as they would not go small enough on the medium, and the small's flotation part was too small for proper protection and fit!

Buy Another Alarm Clock

I bought this alarm clock after my last one went out and after just one night completely hated it. Don't let the box fool you. You cannot choose the track you want to wake up to. Turning off the alarm clock in the morning is hard the alarm clock itself is even difficult to set and make sure you have it right. The BIG button at the bottom isn't even what shuts off the alarm it's the snooze button the alarm off button is this super tiny button at the top left which is very hard to find the morning while you are still rubbing sleep from your eyes. Please spare yourself the pain and look at a different alarm clock.

Unwatchable

Let me first say that I adore Brit drama/period productions. I enjoy the slow pace of these types of productions, where character development reigns over special effects or excessive violence and sensuality.That being said, this production made absolutely NO sense and I finally had to turn the movie off after watching over 1 hour. In vain did I try to "get into" it, but as there was no plot, no storyline nor any characters to develop that I could find (believe me, I tried), I gave up in frustration.I give kudos to those of you who not only understood it, but actually liked it as well. I concede defeat on both counts!

An essential, if imperfect, guide for Anime fans.

This is solid an knowledgeable work, and an excellentresource for anyone new to Anime (Japanese Animation).The first half of the book covers the history and cultureof Anime, and is thorough and well-researched. Thesecond half gives quick synopses of the Anime titlesavailable on video in the US. This section is slightlyweaker: it is dating rapidly (unavoidable in such a work),and the synopses tend to be back-of-the-video stuff andnot always too informative.On the whole, though, well worth buying.

Helpful on key points

"How to Be a Happy Lesbian" does two things better than other books I have read concerning lesbian sex. The first is an excellent chapter talking about safer sex, complete with a long list and descriptions of STD's and other issues affecting lesbians. This is a more complete list than I have seen in my other purchases. The second item I found very helpful was a chapter on therapy and therapists. I had no prior experience with therapy and needed background on the process. The information contained here gave me starting points for more research, and I have since found a therapist who fits my needs as a latebloomer very well.

Fun bargain book from the early 1980s.

This cheap little paperback, printed on bulk-rate paper, isn't a gem of strategy, but it is a nice period piece for looking at the early days of "the video games." In today's marketplace of photorealistic 3D graphics, 5.1 surround sound, and internet-enabled play, it's fun to go back and see what people really valued back then: gameplay. Sure, we talk about "gameplay over graphics" nowadays, but it really meant something back then.

The narrator did such a fantastic job with bringing all the characters to life. The book is off the hook! Terrifying and funny at the same time. The story is crazy and makes me think about history. I sure hope people didn't live like this for real but I am sure they did. Mama Ruby thinks that satan is a low down, black, funky dog who has the strength of 10 bulls! This is the real life Tyler Perry's Madea.

Good, in-depth introduction to Carmelite Spirituality.

Probe me, God, know my heart; try me, know my thoughts. See if my way is crooked, then lead me in the ancient paths. (Psalm 139) The Carmelite Way is indeed a spiritual guide book along the ancient path up Mount Carmel. The author uses his knowledge and insights to provide an historical overview of the foundations of this Religious Order and also points out its fundamental beliefs and visions. St. Teresa of Avila and St. John of the Cross ( two of the more well known and major influences in the Order) are used extensively throughout the book to illustrate important concepts. The Carmelite Way has helped me better understand my Order's rich traditions and "roots". It will also be very useful to anyone searching for a deeper spiritual understanding. Read the book and come join us as we journey in Carmel

Farnsworth....

My contracts professor worships this guy and assigns regular readings from this text. I really don't understand the overwhelmingly positive reviews. I find Farnsworth's style to be horribly boring and his explanations, while excellent, are much more easily obtained from other sources. For example, the E&E for contracts touches on most of the same concepts (albeit in less detail) as Farnsworth, in a much more readable and understandable format. Chemerinsky's "ship book" is also an excellent supplement. For diehard contracts junkies, Farnsworth probably rocks, but if you're just looking to understand the information and do well in class, I would go with some other book.

I bought this book years ago and was incredibly inpsired by it. At the time I was determined to do my dissertation on Victorian women travelers - I couldn't think of anything more fascinating (imagine the research this would have entailed!)

As a writer, a Victorianist, and and armchair traveler, it's a great book for fueling my dreams.

She's so talented (at sampling)!

Yeah, I'd like to see her actually play that riff from Chopin's Winter Wind Etude, let alone sing at the same time. Please, it's actually insulting to REAL pianists. I have to agree with the other reviewer who pointed out the single critical factor of her success: LOOKS.Contrast Keys to Beyonce. Although Beyonce, too, owes most of her success to her looks, at least she can sing without going overboard, and she even has some signature vocal riffs which set her apart. Alicia Keys has NOTHING innovative, plus her voice is rather weak and stale. So she tries to compensate with relentless vocal acrobatics, and it's EXASPERATING.Oh, and just because she writes her own music, unlike most in hip-hop/R&B, doesn't mean it's good. Stevie Wonder she's not.Basically, Keys falls into the category of overrated, overhyped egos who can't dance. Like Mary J Blige... Oh no, don't get me started on her...

Like a hike with good friends ...

A Blistered Kind of Love is a terrific account of one couple as they trek the Pacific Crest Trail. The narrative alternates between authors Angela and Duffy Ballard, and that sets the book apart from other hiking memoirs. Seeing the hike from both perspectives invites the reader to share the experience with greater depth than most single-perspective narratives. It's almost as if we get to alternate sharing the trail with each author, hearing ones view of the trail tale before we hang back and join the other, listening to the same story with that author's particular way of looking at the adventure. Very quickly, the reader gets the sense of being on a hike with good friends. It helps that both writers do a terrific job of letting us see through their eyes. This book is strongly recommended for hikers, adventurers, and people interested in the way relationships develop in extreme situations.

George Soros' wet dream

I love several of HG Wells novels. The First Men in the Moon, the War in the Air, the Time Machine are some of my favorite literary works. Unfortunately, many of his later works were full of Fabian Socialist Utopian ideas that essentially say if the stupid masses would just get out of the way and the "right people" were to make decisions for everyone, the world would be a great place. Of course, in novels, these people never want anything but the greater good. Of course, in reality, everyone who espouses these ideals, such as the aforementioned Soros, really want wealth and power for themselves. As a result, this is a simpleminded and boring approach to a future history novel. If it weren't written by HG Wells, probably no one would pick it up. While the movie made from this book, "Things to Come", is worth watching, don't waste your time with this preachy and silly book.

Fantastic art... horrible read

John Cassady is one of the most talented superhero artists outside of Alex Ross. It is VERY unfortunate that the story that accompanies his art is so bad.This book is a shining example of: "Great art does not a comic book make". The story revolves around Captain Americas activities after 9-11 of 2001. It shifts, with little explanation, from one series of events to another. There is WAY too much exposition between scenes which makes for a very boring read.

Heard this band has had some success in Europe,so I assume they're trying for an American fan base.Their sound is somewhat complex.They combine funk,metal,punk and hip-hop.Didn't really do all THAT much for me.A couple of tracks I thought were 'okay' were "Mental","Respected" and the heavy-duty "Spiritual Warfare".If you're into the likes Fishbone,Bad Brains and Living Colour,you'll most likely get more out of this CD than I did.

From one reader to another

This is a delightful tale about a dog named Keeper. The story is narrated by Keeper from a dog's point of view. He takes us back to when he was just a puppy born behind a restaurant and separated from his brothers and sisters and eventually his mother. All alone, Keeper sets out to find his family, especially his sister Wispy. His journey is filled with adventure that puts him in different situations. He becomes a homless man's companion, a photographer's model, and a little girl's pet. It is also peppered with danger as Keeper makes and eventually fights his enemy Scar a tough, mean dog from the streets. It is not without its tender moments either as Keeper and his long lost sister Wispy are eventuallly reunited! If you love dogs you'll love this story. Even if you don't I think you will enjoy it all the same. It is a story for all ages and tastes. So "stay" and read for awhile!

Not so sure I really like this course so much because it seems pretty out of touch for a course on colloquial language. It could use a bit of sprucing up in my opinion.

Beautiful, broken, and upset.

I had just gotten the lasagna pan for christmas. I fell in love with it the moment i saw it. I recently moved in with my fiancee and have been having a hard time with finding things in the house to make due with for cooking things in the oven. So when i got the pan, i loved it. The color was amazing and it was the perfect size. I couldnt wait to use it.I had only used it TWICE when i came home to a broken pan. My fiancee said that when he was washing the dishes he noticed it was leaking, and then it broke in an almost straight line, leaving two big broken pieces and me very upset. I cant say for the rest of the Sango sets or pieces, but i can say that i know i will not be purchasing this brand.

Simply the converter

Before this cd was recomended to me, I enjoyed the likes of Elton John, Whitney, Mariha, Presley, people like that. Too many to mention. Maybe i'm easy pleased, i don't know. But if I am, then i'm in the majority. Opera was taboo, but not now. This cd is a wake eup call for me, and I have spread the wealth and been thanked. If, as many critics say, this woman is weak, then what a treat awaits me because I love this album, and can't wait to be subject to more of the same, if not better . The duets are just incredible, I love Cura, Bocelli, and have invested in thier albums and videos already. But Brightman does it for me. Boy does she have a set of lungs on her. She has a great voice, and I am in the process of buying everything she has ever done. I urge all to give this album a go. It will alter your taste in music forever. If I was Siskel And Ebert, I would give it two very enthuasiastic thumbs up. Buy Buy Buy.

Strange Indeed...

...that Robinson's latest books have become as pedestrian as this one. I found the plot uninspiring at best, and completely devoid of surprises. All in all, one could skip this entry and not miss a thing. As always, Robinson is a good writer, and he's brought Banks to an interesting -- albeit depressing -- psychological place, but one can't help but feel that he and the series are simply treading water at this point. If only the entire book were as brilliant and incisive as the very last line. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the next one.

Not very insightful or informative.

As an introduction to hospitals, this is the most basic and uninsightful text. Not very informative. Not well written. If you really want to understand hospitals and their operation, this is not the book.

Uninteresting and Dangerous to the World

This book is not a good read unless the reader is a crime novel enthusiast. The story is about a couple that has been married for 24 years. The past few years were not great. On a Wednesday morning, they are sitting across the dining table, the wife realizes how much she hates the husband, and wants to murder him, which she thinks she should have done years ago. But the husband has already made plans to murder her. They make several unsuccessful murder attempts. The mystery is about these attempts and not about who is the killer/victim. The author has tried to make all this humorous!

They moved on and left me behind

With this album New Order started to do their own thing, well distinct from the sound of Joy Division which was still prominently featured in the previous album "Movement".On the plus side they honestly decided not to capitalize on whatever success JD had enjoyed, and moved on. On the minus side - dammit - I had happened to like Joy Division and New Order's new sound was not only completely different, but considerably more commercial (according to me, at least).In retrospect it might not have been a complete sell out, but I judged it as such at the time: this album sounds much more mainstream that anything they had done before. Good for them, but they lost me in the way.About the only song I like out of this album is "Leave me alone", needless to say it's the one more reminiscent of their past.

Repetitious

Unless you have had your head buried in the sand for the last 5 years this will not be new. If you want a re statement of "values" questions raised in the popular media, don't look for clarity here. Did anyone edit this book, organize it or eliminate redundancy? Speeches seem to have been written down in a stream of consciousness manner and piled in a book that rambles from election 2004 going backward to the turn of the millennium. For clarity begin by reading his 50 predictions for the new millennium located at the very end of the book because the rest was very disappointing.

It doesn't come with AC adaptor in U.S.

I bought it because it said that it comes with AC adaptor. But you know what, the AC power adaptor is not supplied with USA, Cannadian models. I felt like been cheated. At least they should have let me know that I am getting. Maybe next time I should check with the stores first before I get anything on-line.

Low quality, poor customer service

I love making bread. I have 3 machines and the breadman is the worst quality I've seen. After only a few dozen loaves of bread there were ware spots on the inside of the pan which caused the bread to stick. When I reported this to customer service they put me through numerous hoops only to tell me at the end that they would sell me a new pan for an outragious amount of money.My least expensive machine, an Oster, has made over 100 loaves of bread and has no problems. I use it mainly for making dough that I then place in other pans to bake now. Although it bakes well too I prefer a different shape of loaf.My Zojirushi is fantastic and it makes a more traditionally shaped loaf of bread so I use it for most loaves that I allow to cook in the machine.So I would say go for the inexpensive Oster or go up to the Zojirushi. The only thing the breadman has going for it is its stainless steel pretty looks and this will not help your bread at all.

A complete waste of money!

If you want to learn Dreamweaver do not buy this book. This is the required book for a college class I am taking on Dreamweaver- it is an awful book. No explanations, just lots of click here, do this, do that. They don't tell you why you are doing what you are doing. The instructions are unclear- I often cannot find what button or command they are referring to. Everyone in the class is having these problems. The instructor is having to walk us through all of the exercises that we should be able to do on our own with the book. I have learned nothing from this book.

Good To Catch Up On The Seasons

This product is a great way to get the first five and a half season on DVD. The CD zipper case which holds all the seasons is a good idea but some of the DVD's can get scratched; mine fortunately did not though. The ping pong set and poker set are a cute idea but I don't really play the games. I think this product is a bit overpriced for what you get. If you don't plan on using the Ping pong set or the poker set I would say just buy the DVD's individually.

These little gems are the cheapest way to repair the door handle when the clips break. While not the easiest, it's much cheaper than purchasing a new door handle or door. I found a "you-tube" video on how to replace these and all told it took about an hour of labor. My latch now functions properly and has for several months. Well worth it.

Excellent detector, poor mount

I've been using the Escort 8500 x50 detector with the blue display for about 6 months. It has some features that are really quite good: really good range, alert sound dims after the first few beeps, easy programing (if you want to, although it's ready to use out of the box), great rejection of false signals. The one negative is the window suction mount that comes with the unit... its flimsy, and tends to fall off the windshield, especially with temperature changes. What I did is purchase a much better radar detector mount through Amazon ([...]) sold by The Mount Guys for #12.95 + shipping, This mount is much better than the one that comes with the radar detector plus it can be used as a windshield mount or a dash mount (all the hardware needed to mount it on the windshield or dash is included). I chose to mount it on my dashboard (as in the photo on the amazon page).Radar Detector Car Dash and Windshield Mount

Less than spectacular

I've been plowing my way through my library's collection of SW's books and I've enjoyed them all so far - except this one. Emotions were mentioned, but not explored. Some of the writing was repetitive and irritating. The whole thing was just not that great. It had the potential to be outstanding though, had she spent the time then that she does now on character and plot development.

We had to move to Seattle to learn to cook Tex-Mex

Because, why bother when you live in Texas? Go get the enchilada plate anywhere!But, in the Pacific Northwest, my family often had cravings. We bought this book, and we have really loved every recipe we have tried. I love the variety of enchilada recipes, and the green chili chicken casserole was excellent. The advice to make your own chili powder was so spot on, we haven't bought any since then! The historical background of the cuisine really makes an interesting read, too.I have recommended this book in particular to two folks now, and it was time to write the raving review this book deserves.

This is a Bohemian flick

After 10 minutes, I had enough. First of all, the visual clarity could have been done a whole lot better, especially with the technology at our disposal. Secondly, this film reminds me of the psychedelic 70's or something. No worse, it reminds me of something you would see during an hallucination on LSD. The music was psychedelic, the drawings were psychedelic, and the constant frontal, nudity scenes gave me nausea. The film gave me a headache!

External 2.5 IDE HDD Enclosure case

Worked exactly as advertised right out of the box, no additional software required. Took less time to assemble that it's taking to write this review. Allowed me to recover the data from my blue-screened laptop. Case seems pretty lightweight, so long-term use may be sketchy especially if it gets dropped ( the sleeve that comes free with the case is too lightweight to help much if the unit is dropped). But, the cost was EXCELLENT, delivery was right on time and best of all the unit performed as expected. Overall, a great value, even if perhaps questionable for long-term use.

The stand is the perfect height for my big boy! . The bowls are 5qt stainless steel and very deep. I have noticed less water splash on the floor! Yes, believe it! Gus got used to it right away! I would recommend this to anyone who has a very large dog!

Makes them sound human

Wow... this cd makes In Flames sound average at best. Very poorly produced and the vocals are terrible. The guitars, when in harmony, sound off key and the timing is off. There is some improvization present, which makes this a fairly interesting listen. At one point, they break down into "Raining Blood", which while cool, has been done by just about every band out there. Hell, Strung Out pulled it off better. That shouldn't be. There are gaps in vocals where it seems that Anders took a break and had a smoke, or it trying to coax the crowd into singing along. Either way, nothing shows up. They should really try to do another live album, and really nail the production. I have heard other live albums from other metal bands (Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera) and those blow this away. Its not even close. Still, if you are into In Flames, it is fun to listen to. It is a good cd to learn their music to if you play guitar because everything is fairly easy to pick out. Rock on.

Jane Fonda's son Troy Garity stars as Albert Burroughs, a poor imitation of Forrest Gump. He is developmentally disabled, and all the more so because of his overbearing mother who goes to excessive lengths to protect him from the real world. When she is killed in a suspicious hit-n-run accident, Albert is easy prey for two characters who try to con his considerable money which he won as an expert ice fisherman. His employer rounds out the cast as a good guy who has Albert's best interests in mind and tries to shield him from the con artists. This film was an "official selection" at festivals in Palm Springs, Slamdance, and Seattle, but you should skip it.

Lengthy Soliloquies on Boring Themes

A collection of stories has more latitude in shorting plot and characterization than a novel does, but this collection's stories goes way overboard in exiguity. All but one of the pieces -- or perhaps two -- seem a farrago of odd, un-reviewed essays and are too often encumbered by poorly edited, impertinent footnotes.I liked one of the stories -- about a sexual predator with a birth defect. His character was well-defined, and the story had punch -- it was a full 360 degree view of the practice of a particular perversity.The other stories -- e.g., the boy at the pool, the toilet minder, the girl who was violated -- I found flabby and pointless artistically. I found particularly silly the story of the toilet minder, a story I would have to characterize as a sad pushcart of childish scatology.

No problem with the performace or the recording. It's just that the symphony does not seem to work. It never seems to find its rhythm like the Bax No. 3 and No. 4.
