Great Belly Cream!
|
This belly cream is great! I started using it when I was 8 months pregnant and noticed stretch marks. I can definitely notice the difference. It is helping to make my stretch marks not as red and it is smoothing them out. This is also wonderful for the horrible itching that I get over my whole belly! I am really picky about lotions with the smell and I can't STAND lotions that are too greasy or sticky. This stuff is nice, the smell is wonderful and it leaves my skin soft, not sticky. It is really thick but it smoothes on easy. I gave it four stars because I wish it wasn't so much $$ and the tube is small. One tube lasted me a month, using it twice a day. It is definitely worth the money though!

Stuck in loop
|
I had a Tunsten T before, which worked for three-four years, even survived several drops on concrete floors. Then I had the Tunsten 2E for about 6 months, and it is stuck in the calibration loop with no possibility of exit. I tried soft and hard reset, all to no avail. I searched on the web, and this seems to be a common problem with no real solution. Palm apparently knew about this, yet they did nothing. This is totally different from Canon. I had a Canon digital camera of three years. The display screen went out. When I searched on the web, Canon had issued a recall for this. Canon paid for all the shipping, and repaired or substituted a newer model (in my case) for free. That is good costumer service! Avoid Palm from now on by all means.

Full of Empty Schmaltz!!!
|
I hated this movie! I went to see it expecting it to be a nice story. So, a horse gets kidnapped and gets back home-BIG WHOOP! It wouldn't happen. The plot was bland and too politically correct for my taste. Horses aren't that smart, either. They wouldn't know that railroads would be built in their territory. And what is Spirit? A super horse? Horses are strong, but they're not James Bond. Besides, these horses had eyebrows and they whinnied too much. The "wild and free" thing is sentimental and insipid junk! WORST MOVIE EVER!!

Jonas is assigned to be the new reciever of memory
|
I think that this story was very weird. It was exciting too. I liked it because in the beginning it makes you want to read more. It also confuses you. From one through five I rate it a four because it could of had a better ending. The ending was very boring and not exciting at all. I thought that it was going to have a better ending. Other than the ending, it was very cool. In some parts of the book it leaves you in suspense and makes you want to read more. My favorite part was when Jonas is assigned his assignment and goes for his training to the annex room. When he receives pain and happiness. Also when he discovers things. This is my review and opinion on the book called "The Giver" by: Lois Lowry.

Black and White Soaps
|
I haven't used this particular soap - however I have used the Black Soap and the Cocoa and Shea Butter soap by the same company. I'd have to say they are exceptional, so I'm sure this skin soap is as well. I use one on my face and the other on my entire body. It has been difficult to find though - Walmart has them for a great price. I'm on their email alert as to when it comes in stock and then its only a few bars. Not every Walmart carries it. It seems to be in stock in more predominantly African American areas. It's well worth the hunt though. I've used many products over the years, certainly more expensive and now my main beauty products are this soaps that cost less than $3 a bar and an all natural facial moisturizer made by hand - by an independent distributor. Natural is the way to go! It shows on my face as I get MANY compliments on my skin.

Decadent pleasure ... unbe-LIEV-ably addictive.
|
Vacationed with family in Mt. Home, Arkansas, randomly picking up a box of Honey Mustard Pretzels for evening munchies at the local grocer. Noticed they were pricier than other brands, but we were on vacation. Well. We went back the next day for another box, the day after that, the day after that, and almost religiously ... every day until we left. Ya know how we tend to do "mindless munching" without really tasting it or noticing the volume we're eating?? Not the case at all with these ... every nugget was like ... fulfilling!! Sadly returning home, no grocer in my neighborhood carries them, and so finding them on Amazon was like hitting the lottery. Can't wait to get them!! And trying for the first time the spicy habanero ... will let you know but trusting they're great. Oh, we did also try the Peanut Butter version ... just didn't do it for me. Great quality, but kinda dead in the flavor department.

The Lies of Locke Lamora keeps me hungry for A-MORE-A
|
Ok, I apologize for the bad pun/rhyme. But I don't understand the 3 and 4 star reviews. It's possible some people's expectations are a tad too high and I don't know why. (ugh more rhyming :) For example, there's the review which gives it 4 stars and compares it to Tolkien, Moorcock and Martin. SRSLY?This is the first book by the author and it's fabulous. The characters are good. The story is engrossing. It's got a fresh take on historical fiction/fantasy. There's no Deus ex Machina. While some of the plotlines are predictable, I am surprised many a time. The back story is pleasantly well fleshed out. The back and forth between flashback and present-day works exceedingly well.Was it perfect? No. But this is a first effort and I can't wait for more. Given some of the drivel gets 3 stars around here, anything less than 5 is an insult. I look forward to more from the author. And I highly recommend it for your reading pleasure.

Good reference
|
I purchased this book from Amazon on 6-2-2012. I found it to be very helpful reference material assisting in my personal studies. Due to a recent mishap it suffered some damage. (liquid damage) While it is not unreadable by any means, I was thinking about obtaining a replacement. As I said, this was purchased on 6-12-2012 and the cost was only $12.29. That was for a brand new copy. Not used. Today it looks like the cheapest "new" edition of the same exact book is over $50.00! What gives? A book that only 7 months ago which sold for $12.29 is now almost 5x the cost? I mean, I could see it increasing to $15.00 or even $20.00 but this amount of increase is unacceptable in my opinion. Does anyone out there have a new copy of this book for sale at a reasonable price? (reasonable being $20.00 or less)

Well enough alone
|
I cannot believe that some level of management actually approved to spend money to produce this major but unnecessary project. Clearly a lot of effort went into making it but it is an overwrought and underwhelming gilding of the lily. The old one was fine, simple and charming. This one is complicated and frankly a bit stressful. This was more a platform for computer animation stunts than a childrens' Christmas flick.I just ordered the original for my under 7 year old four kids for next year. This new version just went in the bin. Fortunately it was a great buy. But . . . you get what you pay for.

TOO SCARY FOR GRIMM
|
I checked this book out for my five year-old thinking it was a good read because it is a Caldecott Honor award winner. It started out as a beautiful and innocent child's book but turned into a frightening story. Nothing like Grimm, this book has no redeeming moral in the end. The gun and knife gang is too real and scary as it is. The slick fox brings up too many images of kidnappers/murderers that you read about in the papers these days. I found myself feeling very uncomfortable while reading this story, imagine what is going on in the mind of an impressionable youngster! Who cares what happens in the end!!! This is not the kind of story you want to send your kid to bed with. I asked my daughter what she thought about this book and she said it was too violent. I have no idea what the ALA was thinking when they honored this book!The moral of this story is don't trust a medal! And, preview your children's books for appropriateness.

Much quicker, less chance of going wrong.
|
So, after reading CF's fantastic review I decided that this product was, indeed, for me. I hated snap trapping mice and only getting their legs or their tails. Felt cruel to me, and then the whole having to kill them by hand. So, I wanted a product that was safe for use around my cat and dogs as well.I searched a bit, and found this product. I set it up last night in two locations, one with heavy mouse traffic, and one with light mouse traffic. The one in the heavy mouse traffic area has already caught a mouse! The little green light flashed the way it was supposed to, and I checked, and yep! A mouse tail! I picked up the box, flipped open the container, and then dumped it in the trash. No cleanup! Just a dead mouse! I reset it, closing the lid again, turning it on so that the light blinked once, and machine buzzed very softly, and it was ready to drop rodenitan death once more!Over all, I'm pleased!

Without knowing, a bike reacts the opposite way !
|
When you read "A Twist of the wrist I and II" you will drive better! The two main things I learned were : 1) When an uncofortable situations occurs, you (= the driver) will react wrong. 2) If you try to steer or to correct the bike, it will react the opposite way.// I wanted to do faster corners and tried to hang off the bike to get my knee down. I took my time and I gradually added speed. At the time (before reading the book) everything I did seemed logic and safe to me. After reading the book I knew that I had been riding very dangerously and it was a mirracle I didn't crash !! These books are full of tips and knowledge you really should know. Example 1 : What happens when you steer right ? Try it and don't be surprised when the bike goes left. What if this happens when you are trying to avoid a lorry ? Read it and find out more.

Expected Fireworks
|
Seeing Lee Child's name in every single bookstore gave me the impression this guy is incredible.A friend let me borrow this book. My first Lee Child. Perhaps my view is somewhat distorted due to the fact that I started at No. 10 and not No. 1, nor have I read additional Lee Child books.The beginning had me into the story straight away I'll give Mr Child that. But I kept expecting fireworks, amazing "wow how's he gonna get outta this one?!" plots and, in hearing some of my girlfriends talk about how spunky Jack Reacher is, a MORE likeable guy than what was actually on the page. But no. I found the plot average, not that engrossing, and it was only the last 50 pages where I held on to my seat cause the ride was awesome. To have to wait until the end to get the awesome parts was a waste of my time. I'll forget this one immediately and won't bother reading another Child.Average.Average.Average.Kids books are more engrossing.

It is a SCAM! Don't buy it.
|
I was so desperate to grow out my hair that I let myself get fooled by them. The product didn't make my hair grow any faster than normal. The only thing it did was to make my hair very dry and make it feel and look funny. However, I kept using it to the last drop hoping for a small effect. Nothing happened. I couldn't be any more disappointed and unhappy with this product! I don't recommend it at all. If I had the time and resources I would go after them for such a false claim. I don't understand how a company like this is still in business and nobody has shut it down yet! DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. It is a SCAM!

cats were not interested in this
|
Our two Siamese kittens, who were 4 months old when we got this toy box, were not very interested at all. Big disappointment. We added a few pieces of dry kibble inside the box and there was only mild interest for a few moments, then they walked away. We left the box out for a few days but they ignored it. We put it away for a month, tried again. Absolutely no interest. We added a few kitty treats to the inside of the box and put a couple cute toy mice sticking half-way out of two holes. No interest. We put the box away again. Now the cats are 8 months old, we tried one more time. The cats could care less. Will be giving this to a friend who has two rescue kittens, maybe they'll appreciate the toy box.

Holy ... Batman! This movie is ...!
|
I LOVED this movie when I was a little kid. I must have watched it a million times. And I was a big fan of the TV show too. Now, years later and I'm an adult, watching this movie is very painful. I'm sorry but it's just terrible. Adam West has got to be the worst actor in the history of the world. He was a horrible Batman! Even worse than George Clooney! He could have used some time at the gym too. That pot belly does not make Batman look too powerful. Burt Ward is a great Robin when his mouth is closed. He looks great but his dialog is just annoying. The Joker, Penguin and Catwoman were all stupid. I loved the Riddler though. My God, who wrote this script? Super villains get together to turn the world leaders into sand? Even with them gone the world seems to run just fine. It doesn't do any good to question the storyline in this movie. It's best to just not watch it. Adam West was by far the worst part about the movie.

A very good follow up
|
This CD was a great follow up to "Blurring the Edges". My favorite song is Sin City, and I have really no clue why. The only song that I really don't like is Back to Nowhere, which is pretty boring. The rest, however, range from fun but badly titled (Cosmic Woo Woo), to serious (Nobody's Home), which talks about a girl with bad parents who commits suicide. Inbetween are other really good songs, including the catchy Back to Eden. (Hey hey, now now.) The song All for Nothing sounds like it was co-written by the Spice Girls, but it too is good. I recommend this album for anyone who likes pop music. Also, stop comparing Brooks to Alanis Morisette. Alanis doesn't do pop. She does "my boyfriend left me so I'm gonna wreak his life". Not that there's anything wrong with that. ~Nishana

Omnimount 23-37" LCD Mount
|
Once properly installed, the product itself is well built and works fine.The installation was difficult for the following reasons:1. The mounting template was out of date. Had I used it, I would have drilled the holes in the wrong place. I simply placed the bracket on the wall and drilled through the holes in the bracket.2. The instruction manual was out of date for the product I received. There were many parts in the box that were not mentioned in the manual.3. When first installed, the pivot points did not move freely. I called customer support and was told that the product was defective and to return it. Having spent two hours installing the mount, I decided to spray the pivot points with WD-40. It now works fine.Bottom-line - Once installed and "greased," the unit works well. The instructions and drilling template need to be updated.

I bought this set for my 3 yr old who is going through a "everything Wizard of Oz" faze. The previous reviewers are right. There are a million pieces. The threading is coming apart after only a week. The clothes are also too small. My daughter loves the Dorothy dress but its a pain and she complains that the sleeves are not attached, the undershirt un-velcros in the back whenever she bends over and I already had to re sew the straps to the dress because they came apart. One of the Ruby slippers snapped in HALF within the week! She barely touches the Glenda and the witch costume. My recommendation would be to get after market Halloween costumes of the characters which even if they are cheap will be MUCH better quality than this trunk. Interesting idea but very cheaply made and not meant to withstand little girls constant changing and playing. Terrible set.

AWESOME!!!
|
This is the best bike I've ever had! It goes really fast, and can go up short hills with lots of incline (60 ft incline on a 500 ft. Hill.)!It actually goes up to 19 mph. on flat ground (checked speed with handheld GPS that is very accurate)The only problems I've ever had with this is the stock brake pads wear out FAST. I mean the razor ones only lasted <6 months. Easily fixed with new 3rd party non stock pads. I also had the same problem with the brake pads on my Razor E100. Both easily fixed.Also, the battery meter only says low (if it is) if you twist the throttle fully.Battery life= Great! Lasts long enough for me to go to my friends' houses (about 1/4 mile away) and back, and the battery is still not low.(also on a very steep hill)Definetly a GREAT BUY!If you want maybe buy some extra break pads (good ones are at monsterscooterparts.com).BTW I'm 13, ride it every day, and it's awesome!

Story so so. Worth only a rental but not an HD purchase.
|
Story was o.k. but not riveting. Great performances? Certainly not the movie I saw (and I've seen a lot of movies). I don't dislike George Clooney but his acting performance again reveals one-dimensional acting. Yes, he looks good on the screen but his character doesn't differ from one movie to the next. Tilda Swinton Academy Award. . .for that small part she had? Diminishes the Oscar's worth. I rented the DVD version. Cinematography not conducive for exhibiting the quality of HD-DVD or Blu Ray visuals. Save your money and rent it if you must. Overpriced.

Get it from the library
|
If you absolutely, postively have to read this book, get it from the library. Whatever you do, don't pay good money for it. I have read all of Scott Turow's books in the past and found them to be very good. I was really looking forward to this one coming out. What a disappointment! I am over halfway through this book (and it has taken me three weeks to get this far) and it is still going nowhere. I like to finish any book that I start, but I don't think I'll be able to wade through this one. The characters are stiff and wooden. There is not one character that I've run across so far that I even like or could care about. The plot trudges along, with neither twists nor surprises. My advise is don't waste your time.

Outstanding
|
I have seen the Phantom of the Opera 33 times all over the world. (Guess you could say I enjoy it). Do not buy this looking for a duplication of the live theater. DO buy it for itself! Enjoy it as a stand alone great version of ALW's PTO. I may be able save thousands of dollars in future airfares, hotels & tickets now that I have this DVD. Rich sound and color. The movie seems somehow to be an even more intimate experience than the theater. I think it is the extreme closeups of the emotions on the faces. The young lady playing Christine has perhaps the best voice & delivery of all that I have heard. The Phantom is no Michael Crawford or Colm Wilkerson but again don't compare - just ENJOY!

OK Screensaver... not as realistic as you might think
|
This is an ok screen saver. Not good, but not trash. The fish are merely adequate, not exciting. Truthfully, the Microsoft fish screensaver that came with my computer is more realistic.Loading the game is a little confusing... you have to load the basic screensaver (which has one tank and three fish) and then load the rest of the fish and the rest of the scenes.The box says 57 fish. Some of them are so hideous that I have turned them off. Some of the backgrounds are nice. The 3D backgrounds look silly, and computer generated.It was 20 bucks... you might want to wait until it goes down in price. I wish that I had. This might be a better deal if it were five bucks. Or free.Update 12-13-05: This is one buggy product. I now suggest that you don't use it even if someone gives it to you. Zero Stars

READ THE REVIEWS - 0 STARS
|
It is now too late...I should have read the reviews. But, it is now too late...1. This megaphone is somewhat more expensive than comparable items on the site. BAD2. It is sold through Amazon so you get it quickly. GOOD3. It arrived with scratches on the visible parts of the megaphone. BAD4. It arrived with the packaging INSIDE the box broken showing it is refurbished while advertised as new. VERY BAD5. I am not sure it works yet so that is another potential surprise.This taught me a good lesson and I will avoid this re-seller in the future.

Just good
|
The songs in here are fairly good. None are supurbe. But there are some song that i just can stand to listen. Like track by perpetuos dreamer- dust. wrv ( good artist bad song), noname - off, mad house - holiday, and sinead o'connor - troy is pretty bad. Fav, song of his entire thing is ATB- i don't wanna stop. and fav vedio is gouryella - ligaya. Amazing vedio. Also most of the vedio in this video are rather bad. Has no meaning or anything, but music are ok. Overall is ok.

Cheaply made, dull...
|
I have a large set of the Sabatier Au Carbone (carbon steel) knives from France and decided to pick this set up for my second kitchen. I do a great deal of entertaining and cooking and thought these might be nice as a backup. What a shock when I opened the box and saw these knives. Sight alone told me they were junk. The Sabatier logo was poorly printed on the blades. I tried to slice a tomato and some cold chicken with each knife as a test. As dull as butter knives from the box. And no amount of work with a stone or steel could bring a decent edge to them. These are NOT real Sabatier and should not be confused as such. Don't waste your money on these. Buy one or two REAL Sabatier knives (Provence is a good line) for a little more and you will be much happier. It's a real shame that these knives continue to be sold and help to ruin the reputation of the real Sabatier

The downfall of the empire
|
This cd is pathetic. The first time I played it I waited till I heard it ALL to pass judgement. Which I think judgement was made for me by the fact that I only remembered ONE song off of it!!!!! and that was because it had the same name as the cd. I remember when I first started to work at my job back in the day and I had Master and Lightning on a tape, one on each side. It played over and over and over till the car died before the tape did. You WANTED to hear the songs over and over. Even though you knew every riff, every word by heart, you wanted to hear it again and again because it was soul crushing, mind destroying METAL and you NEEDED it!!!!! I DONT NEED THIS!!!!!! NO FAN SHOULD EVER HAVE TO SUFFER THIS!!!!!!!!!!!! Hey James,Lars,Kirk,and Rob...... since you clowns have everyones money....how about you GIVE IT BACK!!!!!!!

fools gold
|
a friend recommended this to me and i ordered it from amazon. i have yet to finish it. like another reviewer, i was bored silly. the focus of what i did see was on materialism. how to get money and prosperity.the problem i have with this philosophy is that it reduces god to a magician, our faith to "if we do it right", "if we are good", then we are rewarded. in the christian tradition, that philosophy proven wrong by the death of jesus. he was not prosperous or financially wealthy. neither was ghandi. the buddha renounced his wealth. all credible religious traditions reject the concept of "believe and the wealth will follow".this philosophy is put out by "snake-oil salespeople". they must be laughing all the way to the bank -- they themselves have attracted money and we poor schmucks who purchased it have lost it. however, i'd rather have my soul than money.

Best entry level trick for the price
|
For near the same price you would pay for cheap novelty gum at a local magic/joke shop, you can have a product that can become part of your permanent magic collection. I ordered this on Wednesday and it arrived in Friday's Mail so I applaud the seller! The box is solid and well made. It came with a sticker on it reading "Made in Chine." I thought this was a joke but after a little research, found that Chine is in fact not a typo. Now I sort of regret peeling the sticker off because I thought of a great joke for it while doing tricks. Back to the box. What can I say, the box is really great for the price. I got ten bucks back when I ordered two items thanks to a promotion with the company. So this box and a deck of Svengali cards was only a few bucks.(So look closely for special offers if you order on Amazon.)

Bark Solver? Not for Me
|
Purchased this to assist in quieting down a neighborhood dog. Several problems with this device. Any noise will set it off, so if a tree limb makes a noise, the device goes off, even if the dog is being silent. They admit this in their literature. So the dog doesn't correlate the noise with the barking any longer, he doesn't know what is happening. Secondly, even when it goes off it doesn't phase the dog at all. But think about it, if someone said, I have a powerful sound blaster that will really annoy the humans next door, it will stop them in their tracks. Then said "Just let me hook it up to these 4 tiny D batteries", you would laugh at them. But here we expect the same thing for an aggressive dog. There was an initial effect, i think the dog was just curious. But after a few days it wore off and the dog just assumed that noise was natural. Now he barks like before. Sorry, it didn't work for me.

What a romantic tale!! Loved it!!
|
I am so happy to have found this used, hard cover edition on amazon. Well worth the money!Strong story line that was fast moving and wonderful. The characters were so lovely and strong. Juliette is the main character, who is strong and beautiful. There are actually a couple male characters that are wound into the story, all who adore her. The sheik prince is a man ladies. Yes, the rape scenes were hard, but back in the day, that was the way. They were very well written too. The sheik is one helluva man!The scenes and storyline throughout this book were AMAZING!!I really could not put this one down, and am so lucky to have found it! BRAVO!!

I give it a star because i am required to.
|
I can not give even a star to it. It is the worst movie I've seen for a long time. My daughter even did not use her chance to go to sleep laterto watch it to the end. It is slow, borring, gorry and weird. You can not even review it as an some kind of avangard production.I have no doubt that Iranians are right to be insulted by this. That is their greatest warrior pictured there as all piersed gay whore. Try to imagine france'sNapoleon in the leather outfit with the buttoks hanging out in the Waterloo epic shot by the same crew or even Hitler in the lingere from victoria secret.The script is - NONE. It is like watching the computer game and not having a chance to play it. Do not buy, do not rent, stick with Apocolipto, Pathfinder or Kingdom of Heaven. Don't waist your time.PS. I have to give it a star prompted by the system, but in fact my rating is one big fat "0".

Great so far
|
Got it on 2-4-13 and worked great right out of the box. Ordered a B40, but got a B45 upgrade instead. As far as I can see the only difference is the B45 has one more cup seting for a total of three instead of two cup setting for the B40. So far so good. Bought this after using the B40 at work. Believe me at work the machine gets some usage. I estimated at least 20-30 cups a day or more and is still going strong for 6 months now. Wife loves it! Heats quickly. Aprox 60-90 sec and not very noisy as other reviews have mentioned. I advise running a few dry runs to get it primed. Once I did that I got a full 9.5 oz cup or a little more. So far a great purchase. The best part is that I get the Amazon free return policy if all goes wrong. Recommended it to my friends.

An Epic of Our Time
|
First off I haven't read the books (besides the Hobbit) so I have no bias in these films. I hear people complaining about how some parts were left out of the book. Well maybe someday somebody will make a 30 hour adaptation of the book and these people will be happy. But if you are anybody else you will be amazed. This trilogy is an epic of our time. This trilogy even surpasses the Star Wars trilogy and the Back to the Future trilogy. Even if you didn't care much for the other two films, Return of the King is solid gold. It has amazing special effects, cinematography, amazing detail, if full of emotion and does a very good job of concluding the trilogy. If J.R.R. Tolkien were here to see the movie, he would crap himself. SEE THIS MOVIE!!!

I have only played the game once, but this was the bomb. I read it in two days! I couldn't put it down. It was the most awesome book I have read in a long time! I can't wait to get the next book! If you like Resident Evil you must get this book! Get the whole series! The way S.D. perry descirbes the zombies is so freakin' cool. They say things like the crusty blood around it's lips. The prologue has some newspaper clippings. You must read this book! It's so cool!!!!!!!!!

Nostagic and Wonderful View of a Master!
|
I enjoyed this movie. I have not seen it since I was a little girl. My mother adored Classical music. She introduced me to this film on TV. Being able to see it again as an adult was pleasurable. I am so glad I added it to my collection. To see Paderewski, this brillant Musician, at the piano and here the music was wonderful. The movie is very old fashioned and because of this it has it's own charm. I only had one issue, at the begining, Paderewski is giving a concert and when they show his hands on the keyboard playing, the music it is out of sinc. Which was sad. I do not remember if the film was always this way. I had no issues with the film's quality. Sound and picture quality were fine, considering how old this movie is.

I have had this steamer since 2002 and it is still working fine. It heats up very quickly--it continuously takes a small amount of water to boil. Unlike the traditional steamer, the whole pot of water has to boil before any steaming can be done. This electronic steamer only takes second to produce steam. It is very efficient. It also has a drip pan so that the water in the reservoir is not contaminated. There is an external water fill system which is very handy- just add water as it is steaming. If a prolong steaming is required, one might want to check on the drop tray--making sure the drip tray does not overflow into the reservoir where the heating element is. The digital display is a plus- two buttons, up and down (for the timer). Only reason not giving a five star is because of the smaller tray with the egg holders. The little indentations are difficult to wash by hand. Overall it is a very good teamer.

GREAT IDEA, BAD PRODUCT
|
My mother's sewer backed up and flooded the basement. Later I saw this alarm at a major home improvement store. I bought 3 of them. Two for her basement, one for mine. I installed a 9 volt battery in each of them and tested each in water. They worked fine. I placed each one in a problemed water area. The trouble I experienced was that the high humidity in the summer would set these things off. Placing plastic or a piece of cloth under them didn't fix the problem. Now none of them are in service because one by one they went off for no reason and I could not get them to stop! Great Idea! Bad Product!

Boring

I'm not a huge Smashing Pumpkins fan or anything but I did really like their first 4 albums. Once they did Adore that's when they turned for the worst. After the break up Zwan was pathetic and lifeless. that band was never ment to go anywhere. In 07 Billy decides to get a new Pumpkins band together with founding member Jimmy Chamberlin and two new people. The result is a sloppy, weak mess. This album only has a 2 good songs. Doomsday Clock and Bring The Light. Other then that the album is just straight up garbage. Every other song sounds flat and stale. I'm all about a band experimenting and trying new directions but this album really has no life to it. If I want to listen to the Pumpkins it's going to be 1 of the first 4 albums.

U.N.C.L.E. on D.V.D.
|
In its heyday U.N.C.L.E. was bigger than Star Trek, but misplaced concerns about violence kept the series from being rerun in the 70's. It was Trek reruns in the 70's that cemented its legend, while U.N.C.L.E.'s luster dulled.It was a shame.The Man From U.N.C.L.E. was one of the finest television programs ever. It featured cool heroes, fantastic plots, witty dialogue, and a memorable theme song. U.N.C.L.E. was one the truest examples of escapist fun. The fact that lesser shows have been released on DVD, while U.N.C.L.E. languishes, is amazing.Release each season of this show on DVD. I wouldn't care if it was bare bones with no extras. We fans want to own this program to enjoy over and over again. C'mon already!!!!!

Disappointed
|
When beginning Ladder of Years I was expecting an exciting and interesting story, but that was not what I ended up with. I really liked the beginning of the book but then there was no action. It seemed to drag on with little storyline. I was expecting that Delia would do something exciting or adventerous, but she never really did. I was disappointed with how little her character actually did while she was away. I don't think she was a changed person after leaving. I can relate to her actions and feelings but I don't think she accomplished anything while away. It was to easy for her to fit back into the same role as before. I would have liked to see the story end differently, perhaps more action from Sam. However I really did like the many metaphors throughout the story. I am able to appreciate the story for that but I did not find it to have enough action and to much detail that dragged on for to long.

If you have trouble sleeping....

Ok. I admit it: I love family guy. I love that humor that is sometimes cruel, sometimes silly, sometimes very out of place... always improper. But I didn't find much of it in Ted. I was expecting to LMAO watching this movie and, instead, I giggled a couple of times... is that all there is? As a result, I found this movie to be VERY boring. I mean, nobody expects too much out of a comedy: just make me laugh and be done with it.... If you forget the laughing part.. what do you have? There are parts where the film tries to entertain, and it's even more miserable because of that... if it didn't try, at least it wouldn't be as pathetic... Halfway through the film, I looked at my bored wife.. she was falling asleep. I wasn't, but was bored as hell.... I asked: do you want to see what's on tv, instead (for the record, I would NEVER suggest that over watching a movie)? She said: no, we are here, let's see where this takes us... and it took us to another wasted hour.

What's going on?
|
I don't get it. I have tried six copies of this game. In every copy in the 2-player trial mode I was unable to complete the creature tage modes. Is it just me or did everyone that reviewed this game not find this MAJOR BUG? The 2-player trials cannot be completed! Come on Acclaim what's the deal. I've been told to mail the defective game to Acclaim. Who wants to go through all that trouble? I just took my defective game(s) back. We deserve a product that works as it is supposed to. What is wrong with you people. Why all the good reviews? I can't be the only person who has found SIX defective copies of Rage Wars. I really enjoyed the game until I found this glaring problem. Now I consider it just garbage. I bought this game for a good multiplayer experience. All I got was major disappointment. This couldhave been a great game. Sorry Acclaim you've struck out once again. Fix the bugs and maybe I will buy it. Again!

Good size for a 3+ year old.

When I first opened the package and saw all the pieces and poor instructions (pictures only type instructions), I was a little discouraged. But once I got strated, the assembly was actually really easy. I was able to put it together by myself in about an hour. The hardest part of assembly for me was the sticker placement. For the most part you only got one shot. If I tried to reposition them, they would tear. Even though it's mostly plastic, it seems to be pretty sturdy. It has enough to keep a little ones interest for a good while. And the option to buy extra accessories is nice. The only things I wish it had were a working horn, a gas cap/hole, a fake key of some sort and maybe a spot for a drink holder, as these type of extras seem to please most little ones. I would recommend this product to a friend as long as the price was not over $275.

How did this get printed?
|
This was my first Cussler book. It was recommended by a friend. From what I've read, I have to conclude that Cussler heard a great story and then turned it into a miserable book.1. Dialogue - horrible. Unreadible. Its stiff, it tries to be funny, and it tries to be James Bond type wit. It fails in the worst way.2. Characters - Dirk Pitt, say it aloud: Dirk Pitt. Bad name. It doesnt't work. Also, let's review the character: an ex-marine, works as a diver for a government agency called NUMA, collects classic cars, and dates a beautiful congresswomen who adores him. That can only be a string of Cussler's fantasies fused into one person. Doesn't happen.3. Humour - whoever told Cussler he was funny should be shot.If you read this Cussler I'm sorry I don't think you're a good author. Take heart - you're obviously good at something, because the book seems to be selling well.

Glossy front cover does not hold much content.
|
Very disappointed with this magazine subscription despite the gorgeous glossy front covers. Content is scant and recipes are not great tasting. I've been a vegetarian for several yrs and was looking for some decent recipes. But don't expect it from this publication. Recipes does not seem to have been tested for taste. Futhermore, delivery is sporatic at best. My Jan and Feb issues went missing (and that was not the first time this happened). After contacting them, I was promised replacement issues would be sent. They never appeared. My subscription ends in May and I can't wait to try another publication. What a waste of money and time.

Wonderful writting, wonderful suspence, a great book.
|
I should have put down four and a half stars, cause it's that good. Someone wrote down about how the facts about the Titanic are way off. Yes, they are, but this book was written years more than TEN years before the Titanic was found and studied. He was writting what he thought the Titanic would look like after 76 years under water, and he did a fine job in discribing what the hull looks like after all thouse years. Plus, it is a work of FICTION, ok, as in "Not real". Being that it is fiction, it is a fine one at that. The suspense keeps you turning pages wanting to find answers, and the characters are believeable. The downfall of Gene Seagram was very well done. Imagine if all you lived for, all you worked for, what you put all your money on, was found to be worth nothing, disspossed in less that a day. I would probably break down. It is a great book, a very enjoyable book, and one that keeps it's head-on pace right to the very end.

By far the best book I have ever read
|
This is one excellent book. It is a must read for people who have been in the military and for that fact, anyone and everyone. This book starts with the Class of 1966 as the enter Westpoint. They start out as freshmen (I believe the term was plebes), the book takes the readers through the trials and tribulations of each of the main characters as they endure that first year. As the book progresses on you get to know each of the main characters as they experience school, romance, hard times, easy times, sad times and happy times. The book continues as they graduate from school and enter Vietnam. You experience the horror of war and the bond the forms with soldiers in combat. After Vietnam the reader will continue to follow the characters as they experience life after Vietnam. I was acutally hoping the book would not end. Being in the military I can relate to much of what the book was about. I highly suggest the book to anyone.

Michael Moriarity plays the role of the tycoon andthe villain to the hilt. This movie has an excellent plot. Theaction in this movie is unparalled. Clint Eastwood lives up tohis role of a hired killer to the maximum. The scenery in this movie is also award winning. The action as always lives up toall expectations. Once again Clint Eastwood is the quiet,alwaysdangerous stranger who saves the day. Be sure to watch this movie. It has good action as well as good acting. This is anentertaining movie.

Oprah are you listening???

What an amazing first novel from Norris Church Mailer! I hope she has another book coming soon. This book was amazing in so many ways... It definitely had me on the edge of my seat. And I loved the way each chapter was spun by a different character. It really made the entire novel come together in the end. Normally, I would tire of all the details, but she told the story in such a refreshing manner that it had me hungry for more. I had a hard time putting it down! I'm almost sorry that I'm done with the book as I can't imagine my next read being that spell binding. The book has so many plot twists and interesting characters, I would recommend this book to men and women alike. Kudos to Church Mailer -- I hope to read more from you -- and soon!

SO FAR SO GOOD
|
After debating for 2 years to purchase one of these pools, I finally did so. I bought the 12'. It was easy to set up. No ground work was necessary. I filled it up myself without the help of my husband. I am not physically strong nor mechanically inclined. It was EASY. We have only had it a few days but so far it seems great. My two girls ages 6 and 2 love it. There is room for the whole family. It is the perfect size for kids. I am very pleased with this product so far. I hope it lasts all summer. No complaints about it yet. I plan to keep chemicals in it to keep if fresh and clean.

Killer Smile

Talk about a dichotomy! You have the flamboyant scoundrel Burt Lancaster on one side and the stoic gentleman Gary Cooper on the other. They form a loose allegiance and friendship in French occupied Mexico. And that's the main focus of this film. This movie is just filled with so many cornball theatrics that you just can't help but fall in love with it. And there's a twist or a turn around every corner. That's what makes it so good. Director Robert Aldrich mixes lessons on etiquette with lessons on sharp shooting. Even Emperor Maximilian gets to show off his marksmanship prowess against Cooper and Lancaster in a very entertaining scene! There's enough action, witty dialogue and beautiful location photography (by Ernest Laszlo) to please most movie fans. The large cast includes Cesar Romero, Denise Darcel, George Macready, Ernest Borgnine, Charles Bronson and Jack Elam. The film's greatest asset is Burt Lancaster's smile. I never knew he had so many teeth!

This is sooooo NOT happy hardcore!
|
Yeah be warned as this is NOT happy hardcore by the least stretch of the imagination. I didn't purchase this cd until listening to quite a few of the tracks online. ... this is NOT hardcore. I've been listening to HHC for the last three years so I know what is hardcore.The other reviewer is right, this is not hardcore and I have never heard of DJ Rib either. Maybe someone should smack him upside the head with a rib for putting out this fake HHC cd! I mean does Gangster House sound like a HHC song to you? Sounds like hard house and drum n bass to me. Some of this stuff is more trance than hardcore and only a few beats are happy hardcore..... If you can find a good import store then buy something from the UK or Europe. Any hardcore or NU-NRG from the UK is really good and blows this CD away. Good luck and rave on:) :)

Horrible! Horrible! Horrible! This video is so bad it doesn't even get a ratting. The narrartor is dull and boaring. The acting is pathetic and the way the story is told is down right bad. My fiffteen month old who usually loves to sit down and whatch christian video was highly annnoyed. He was so not ammused he began to cry. This is deffinatly not for kids. I don't even reccamend it for preeteens or teenagers. It's long boaring, unentertaining, and lacks good music. I rather stick to talking vegetables and puppets (Veggie Tales and Great Bible Adventuures.

Digital Picture Frame
|
This item was purchased as a gift for Mom. Overall I was not happy with the product because it didn't meet my expectations. The main reason that I didn't like it was because it didn't work properly with the memory card. It kept on skipping and had trouble recognizing the card. It worked better with a memory stick. Ultimately, I had to return the item and was very satisfied with Amazon's return policy. When I set the frame up for my Mom and saw that there were problems with it, I was concerned that returninig it would be a hassle. I was pleasantly surprised. Amazon made the return process stress-free. I was also dissatisifed with the size of the displayed images on the frame. I didn't realize how small they would appear.

Buyer Beware
|
Beware!!!! This DVD is in HEBREW. If the child you are buying it for doesn't speak or understand the language, you will not be able to use it at all and Amazon will charge you postage to return it. I suppose I didn't read the information about the product well enough when I ordered it, so imagine my surprise when it arrived and I couldn't read a single word on the outside of the case! I knew it was either Hebrew or Yiddish. I checked and yes, when I scrolled down the description said the language was Hebrew. I don't remember reading that as I was ordering my Christmas gifts. I didn't realize something like a product in a language other than the one I am using when ordering wouldn't be part of the initial information given: at the top where it doesn't have to be searched for by the buyer! Innocent mistake or stupidity? All I know that I feel that the buyer better beware when dealing with Amazon. They don't allow for any mistakes on the buyers part.

Construction handbook in photos
|
Published by Rizzoli under ISBN: 0847811522 and 0847811247, it has 256 pages. Disappointingly, Centre Georges Pompidou is presented on a few somewhat depressing or irrelevant B&W photos and illegible tech. drawings with white lines on black background. A few more projects are shown in that manner. Many photos show everything except architecture (good for social studies), or were made too close to the object showing too little of it, or - too far showing too much sky or foliage, incl. most of the B&W ones. There are not many plans and sections, and mostly too small and/or simplistic (incl. hand drawn). Technical aspect of structure is overemphasized and dominates photos like in a construction handbook. The fabric of architecture - space proportions and composition is very scarce. There is a lot of empty paper.

I think I'm being genorous...
|
2 stars may be a stretch. This book I can't say it was bad but I can't really say it was good either. You have 17 million dollars + and you contemplating on rather or not you should get out of the game? I think not... It's called investing. You got all the money let your money make you money. But hey it was just a book so let me calm down. There were too many characters popping out of nowhere. I'm still trying to figure out who Nitah is and who Jalil is? At times the book was going in ever direction possible. Teri Woods tried that's all I can say. I don't knock anyone who is out there doing there thing but the book could of been a lot better. Gena was dumb. Quadir was unrealistic. Gah Git? what is that? I don't know. I am skeptical of purchasing her others. But remember that this is just my opinion. Everyone is entitled to their own.

It's a chore to play
|
This game stinks. The graphics of the people are okay, but the rest of the world stinks. The point is to hear people say stupid things pointlessly. Then you drive them to places and they pay hundreds of dollars. The cars don't even flip over. It's extremely repetitive. Hey haven't driven you somewhere 10 times already? That's what you'll be asking yourself. You have to do the same thing over and over again and get money. Then once you have the money you pointlessly buy people or areas. The worlds are terrible, but just like the T.V. show. Don't waste your money and get excited when you buy it, just don't even bother. Don't just try my review though, look at all the others on this site.

Great pair of shoes
|
I bought a pair of these at Foley's (now Macy's) in Houston about 2 years ago. I loved these shoes so much, I went to buy another one; however, as Macy's bought out Foley's (a Mays company store), they took it off the shelf. A few searches online via Google and Amazon.com had them. I ordered it as soon as I saw it. It arrived two days later at my door and began to wear it. Like any other new shoes, you will get blisters, so don't forget to double up on your socks for the weeks. After that, it's straight coasting. They're really comfortable and the leather is great. The sole is also tough. On my first pair, the soles went out on me but that's because I walked on gravel and stones for a whole week everyday. The stones and gravel eventually softened it but for street walking and carpet, it's great because you don't slip, or slide and stick on carpet. So, it's really ideal. Also, it's great for dancing :)I hope this review helps. Cheers mates.Collin112

A good flick when you're bored.
|
Friday The 13th. . . I first watched this movie 2004. Yup, waited that long. Of course, I read reviews and did my 'research'.Well, for starters, don't believe any of the hype about the movie. Yes, it was probably scary compared to the movies of it's time. But now a days, it's a boring flick, with poor murder scenes, and unrealistic blood/injuries.Basically, Camp 'Blood' is re-opening, and so on Friday the 13th, the counselors get murdered one by one. It's a predicatable plot, up to who the murderor is.The only thing it really has going for it is the basic interest of who gets murdered when. Don't get me wrong. If I was reviewing this movie when it first came out, it might have received 5 stars. But compared with the films of today, it's a low-throttled slasher film, only worth watching when you're bored. Don't expect to see believable murder scenes or terror incarnate. if so, this film is not for you.

Keith Urban's Continued Success
|
One word - OUTSTANDING!! This CD continues to show how Keith continues to grow as a songwriter and performer. The emotions in his voice are so real that you feel what he is singing about. I get chills on songs like the Hard Way, Tonight I Wanna Cry, and Noboby Drinks Alone. Along with great positive songs like Days Go By and God Has Been Good TO Me. With each release, he gets stronger and stronger. It is great see someone with exceptional talent like him - writes, sings, and plays most of the guitars when he records - achieve this level of success. Country music is about talent - signing, writing, playing, performing, etc. Keith is defintely in this league of excellent talent.Keith is a country superstar and will be around for years to come. I believe he has the writing talent to write songs for others to record. I highly recommend this CD, along with his two. Also, I recommend purchasing The Ranch. His group work before going solo.

Booooooorrrrrrriiiiiiiinnnnnnnngggggg!

Nevermind's phenominal success was a fluke; Nirvana just hit at the right time. It boggles the mind how anyone could consider this album great. It's so simplistic to the point it's juvenile. And no, I don't mean "simplistic" in terms of "sparse beauty", I mean that it's just a repetitive bore-fest. After the obligatory guitar solo, I switched to the next track on the CD because all Cobain does after it is lazily repeat the chorus ten more times. If Cobain didn't have that slight stubble and those baby-faced good looks, you'd all have forgotten about him by now. We all know he felt guilty about how he wasn't exactly ugly. Admit it. His good looks DID lend to his wronful status as legend. Give muddy Banks to any non-Nirvana fan and tell them Kurt's a legend. You'll get laughed off the jungle gym.

Disillusioned
|
Dave seems to be on a downward spin ever since he and his band scrapped their original "Busted Stuff" album in summer 2000. I'm missing stuff in the vein of their first two albums, which are my favorites. Everyday was not impressive, but it had a few good one. Busted Stuff I thought was a HUGE disappointment compared to the original tracks. Some Devil, too, was a disappointment. Everything sounds the same, and that's not a good thing. It all sounds like the same, slow, monotnous guitar with Dave's voice keeping pace. Not good. The Bonus disc though is its redemption. The live version of Stay Or Leave is my favorite track. It sounds nothing like the studio version. All in all: Dave get your act together.

Outstanding Bargain
|
I'm an audiophile. Unfortunately I've had to sell off my main high end system. I replaced it with tube equipment that I built. My Class "A" tube amp's only output 22Wattts per channel necessitating a very efficient speaker system. In my research I stumbled upon the Acoustech HT-75. They were certainly efficient enough and the reviews were good, so I thought, for the price, I'd try them. Boy, was I shocked. These speakers are terrific. The low and mid frequency reproduction is superior while the high frequency is very extended with a little edge. I'm comparing these unit's to speakers that cost at least 10 times more. They are not perfect, but for the price you can't go wrong. Especially with tube amp's. My highest reccomendation!

Installed two
|
Merry Christmas to us, our presents to each other this year. Lack of remotes prompted us to finally upgrade our old door openers. We had never installed door openers before but decided on a weekend after receiving them to try and save ourselves at least $200 by doing it ourselves. The first one took forever, but the second was "relatively" quick. Be sure to look closely at the illustrations if you've never installed one before. We were replacing (two) an old--very old but well built--overhead door model and a genie model. Neither had remotes. The genie needed a new board if we were to have a remote. It seemed a better idea to replace it, after 15+ years. Very happy with these openers, very quiet. Heavy duty model has a better warranty as well.

Birkenstock Soles *Shrink*
|
Generally, I like Birkenstocks, but they have one SERIOUS drawback. The soles shrink in high heat. I had my Birkenstocks in the back seat of my car. I parked in the sun on a hot day. The soles of my Birkenstocks shrank approximately 1/4" from the edge of the leather on the sides and about 5/8" in the toe and heel. The sole also partially separated from the upper. Yeah, I guess for the future I won't leave my shoes in the car when I go inside, but 'cmon, a pair of shoes should be able to handle a hot car on a normal day. Like, what? I'm not supposed to take Birkenstocks on vacation? Or only wear them the whole time? What happens if I want to go on a hike when I'm on vacation? I guess I have to pack my Birks on my back. Can't leave 'em in the car. None of my other possessions were affected on the same trip. Grrr, Birkenstocks.

Better than the 40-30-30 program
|
I tried the 40-30-30 becuase on paper it made sense. I felt good, had high energy and lost weight, but it wasn't fat, a lot was water and some muscle.Then I went on Atkins. My energy level was just as high. I lost weight faster but most significantly to me was that I lost inches and fat, not just weight.I dropped 2 pant sizes in my first week and for once wasn't afraid to go out to public pools in my swim trunks. Previoously, I used to procrastinate by saying that I didn't look fat in a suit, but I was in denial.My face looks tight. No more double chin. My overall muscle tone has improved significantly. I love this diet. It's the best. Far better than the 40-30-30 which may be okay for those natural high metabolism types who gain a few pounds and lose easily or are already thin. Didn't work for me or anybodyelse that I know.Atkins is the best.

Great outdoor sound at a great price!
|
My husband bought these speakers for me for my birthday because we like to sit out on our deck and listen to our music. Our only affordable alternative was to leave the slider open.(not great when it's 105).When we first started searching most of the speakers were VERY expensive!... We almost gave up. I'm glad we didn't. My husband did a great job installing the speakers under the eve of the house. We have a surround sound home theatre so we are not stupid about sound quality, but we are not audiofiles either. These speakers sound great! We can even hear the music from the lower patio, without having to crank it too high. The way my dear husband has them installed, we can listen to music late at night without bothering the kids inside. For the [money] we paid for the speakers & the [money] for the wire & switch box I feel we have received thousands in musical joy in return. I can't wait to have friends over in the evening!

Awful!!
|
I just had to see what not to do when you make a movie, so I went to see From Justin to Kelly. I walked out after 45 minutes. This movie makes "Who's that Girl" the "Gone with the Wind" of pop star flicks. It is possibly the worst thing I have seen ever. Justin looks ridiculous with his outdated hair and pancake powdered skin. Kelly looked like she was drinking to try to deal with her horrible lines she delivered in the deadpan style of a b-movie queen. The movie is inept and really depressing. These two 'stars' are on the way out, big time. Kelly will be holding up liquor stores and Justin will be doing porn movies. When you are quick to the top, the ride down is slow and painful. From Justin to Kelly is the perfect example.Bye Justin and Kelly.

The Concert is still on PBS stations
|
First, let me say that I am Josh Groban fan. I didn't see him on Ally McBeal, but happened to watch his PBS concert a few years ago. That was when I bought everything I could get my hands on. At last count, I have 8 copies of Josh Groban CD's. Okay, now comes the difficult part. I saw the "Live at the Greek" concert this past Friday and what a difference! For me, it wasn't a good difference either. Perhaps he was worn out from a grueling tour schedule but it was a poor choice to wait until the end to record it at the Greek. I've decided not to buy this Concert. However, I'm really looking forward to Josh's next CD. I'm sure his beautiful voice will be back on track.

It's okay
|
The unit is fine. I like that there is a phone, alarm and radio all in one so I don't have to have more than one thing on my bedside table. Two things have been slightly challenging. Working out how to set and turn off the alarm. I like the feature where I turn off the alarm and it automatically is set for the same time tomorrow. I don't have to worry about not setting my alarm at night. Dispite the fact that the display has 3 brightness settings, the lowest one is still a little bright for me. That's probably personal preference. We live in the country so at night we are used to it being totally dark. Someone in the city probably wouldn't even notice. Overall, I'm glad I bought this unit.

I hoped for more...
|
I had been so excited to read this book. I looked forward to hearing other women's views of infertility. But, I was very disappointed in it. The women focus a lot on weight. As a first time IVFer I was concerned enough about using injectibles and whether or not the cycle would result in a healthy baby. To hear these women -the weight would be the worst of the ordeal. They talked on and on about how much they gained. And yes I gained weight, but it is hardly what the process of IVF was all about. There was a lot of trivial talk about nonsense in this book. And in the end the women never pursued ART pocedures and wound up pregnant. I have sympathy for all women stuggling to have a baby. However, I find it difficult to take opinions about IVF from women who have not gone through the experience. I wish those of you trying to concieve the best of luck in your journeys. I didn't benefit from this book, but maybe you will.

this pump sucks, and not the way it should
|
i got this pump as a gift for my baby shower. it was not the one i wanted but the one i got. i tried to pump after i was engorged. it sucked like 15 mls after 15 minutes. there was more milk on my clothes and breast than there was in the bottle. i set the pump to suck at the highest setting and still nothing. it is really loud, too. my dogs went nuts at the sound of the motor. you would think that with such a loud motor, there was a lot of pumping going on according, but alas...no such luck.do not buy this pump!!!! if you do, it is at your own expense.i talked to a lactation consultant in my area and she told me what i had already figured out. this pump sucks, and not in a good way.

Product is great, but I would not buy from this seller in the future.
|
I ordered 2 of the replacement coffee carafes to have a back up. The order arrived in a resonable fashion, but the box only contained one carafe. The packing slip showed two, but only one in the box. I emailed the seller - Buy It Now Store - and one of their representatives assured me they would send the other carafe, and apologized for the oversight. That was on 5/5. By 5/25, still no coffee pot. I emailed again, and was told by the same representative that he would personally send it out. Two weeks later....still nothing. I emailed again requesting a refund. I received a refund, but never heard from the Buy It Now Store, again. And they will not hear from me again, either.

Slow and boring
|
O Horten depicts a persons attempt to cope with retirement. Odd Horten is a train engineer and has been driving for many years, always punctual and bound by routine fails to arrive on time for his last train ride. Faced with retirement he wanders aimlessly trying to make a sense of the void that retirement has left him with and in the process encounters many odd characters. These meetings and his interaction form the basis of the movie. The mood of the movie is pretty melancholy and remains that way from the beginning to the end. There are many situations where I thought the action was going to get interesting but did not. The director has tried to show the sadness of a retired man without a family and he certainly succeeds but without the emotional grip. I liked the photography and especially the first scene when Odd is driving the train through a frozen land. Beautiful....The movie was not just not that great for me. I gave it two stars. 2/22/10

Dodging Terrorism
|
How dare she! I too was in an abusive relationship, with no where to go and only my husband for financial support. It started with insulting pet names to degrading names to pushes and then to slaps. When I noticed that my children continued playing when their father slapped me, I knew I had to go before this got out of hand. Even allowing them to see me get abused was abusing them. But you get out. You save your child. How this monster of a woman can still pretend after all these years that she cared about Lisa is sickening. Please read, "What Lisa Knew". She saw Lisa as her rival and had no love for her. She and Joel were two sick crack addicted junkies, who enjoyed their sick game of Master and slave and unfortunately bought children into their sick lives as well.

THIS IS THE GREATEST SURVIVOR SERIES EVER!
|
This is the best Survivor Series I have seen in my life. JBL vs. Eddie was a great match and I'm happy to see JBL become World Champ again. The most anticipated moment has come and SmackDown rules again. I liked Triple H vs. Cena especially now that annoying jerk, John Cena lost the WWE Title. I've been waiting for Cena to lose since Cena moving to RAW, and now RAW rocks. The two Survivor Series Elimination matches were the best I've seen. Team Eddie Guerrero vs. Team Batista was much better than expected, but too bad there was nothing at stake. Otherwise, Team Bischoff vs. Team Angle was also amazing but I'm disappointed that Angle lost the match and his job. He'll be back. Overall, I give this event 10/10!

Complete and Utter Crap!
|
Hey, the title says it all. The music sucks, the lyrics are absurd and the vocals are painful to listen to. Highly recommended for listeners with self-masochistic tendancies. Here's a clue - when you can easily find a hundred or so of a used CD for less than two bucks, it's gonna suck! And 4 non-talented-non-blondes really do suck and they suck big time with a capital S!A "friend" recommended this to me. Thank God for Amazon's sound clips or I'd be doin' life without parole now! Needless to say, I'm now happily less one tone-deaf, musically inept friend. If you got to this review via a personal recommendation, start searching for dark and sinister ulterior motives from that person. They are not your friend! I repeat - NOT you friend!!!Don't comtemplate even a nanosecond about buying this awful, nauseating, nails on the chalkboard CD! DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!!!!!(...and the usual caveat about not being able to give zero stars...)

A waste of money and time

SAVE your money and your time ! This is TERRIBLE ! ALOT of rap commercials ! Only about 5 minutes at the end is worth watching. If I could I'd return this ! Commercials, talking, and fans is all you see in this. If I could this would get rated 000000 ! This does not deserve one star, much less more . This is a REAL RIP OFF !!! Dina

Completely disappointed
|
I bought the book in order to familiarize myself with SQL. I am a programmer, and I learn best from reference books, so a book called the "SQL Programmer's Reference" seemed like it would be perfect... WRONG.Nothing is organized. Logically one would expect commands to be alphabetically listed. Nope. Okay, perhaps grouped by function? Nope. And what's worse, there are sections for each command in two or three completely unrelated sections of the book.The index is terrible. The examples are pathetic. Even the grammar is to be laughed at. As stated in other reviews, this is the perfect example of a lousy book. Not only would I recommend avoiding this book, but also avoid anything else written by this author.

Are you serious!

Probably the most overrated recordings of all time. Having lovedPablo Honey (4 stars) and The Bends (5 stars), and after readingall the '5-star' reviews of this CD, I figured 'Hey...I gotta getthis CD'! Well, I'm trading it in tomorrow. As another reviewerstated, it's very 'tedious'. Second-rate Pink Floyd. This stuffwas being done in the seventies! Anyone remember Tangerine Dream?This CD is better than maybe only two or three of all of PinkFloyds recordings. The only decent song on the CD is Karma Police. What was Radiohead thinking after making a great CD like The Bends, and then following up with this? Why all the glowingreviews? All I can think of is the standard/bar for a great CD has been lowered tremendously. How else can you explain the popularity of rap, hip-hop, Eminem, Creed, and yes...even Nirvana?I highly recommend Pablo Honey and The Bends. I don't recommendOK Computer. If you want this type of music, buy any one ofabout eight Pink Floyd CDs.

It was very east for me to set up, i filled out her schedule and everything. the internal clock worked for about a day or so. we wake up at 5 but elmodidnt have that option. so I put 6am. Never the less, about a week later we are sound asleep and about 3 in the morning Elmo says,"Courtney, time to eat....blah blah," I jumped so far out of my bed and grabbed the kids ready to fly outta the door. Im a wicked light sleeper.. so for those single parents that are light sleepers and have to get early and do not want to be scared out of your PJ's this doll is not for you. The doll even sang Happy birthday to her LIKE 3 MONTHS too early...she was like, MA, its my birthday?...LOL..Its just not Worth the MONEY or the EAR PLUGS!!!

Blasting Techno Music Ruined It
|
I wanted to sit back, and feel as if I were on these great rides. Instead, they made the ridiculous decision to add loud music to the rides. There are two main senses involved (besides the body feel - which of course they can't supply) . . . sight and sound. You want to hear the wheels whirring, the air rushing by, the screams and the silence at the top of the first hill. Instead, you hear track after track of thighmaster Infomercial music. That destroyed the experience. Take out the music, and this would have "rocked" !!

Don't make a mistake by purchasing HP
|
I have the Pavilion dv6000 Entertainment PC. Don't be fooled by this computer's sleek look. I have made numerous calls, been on hold, hung up on, and struggled with a language barrier (someone from India was "helping" me) and finally just gave up. HP's idea of customer service is to ignore you until you go away. It works! Great tactic! This company is not interested in selling quality products or providing basic support services. The laptop speakers have not worked since I plugged in external speakers. Now the external speaker port is screwed up and only plays sound on one side of the speakers or headphones. So much for an "entertainment" pc. The CD Player rarely works, won't eject CD's, and randomly turns on and off by itself. The wireless controller doesn't work PERIOD. The only good thing I can say about it is that it's PRETTY... and we all know.. pretty just doesn't cut it anymore. I won't purchase another HP again.

good for music, not for video
|
i bought this and quickly gave up on the included software. i then went with the tversity free software, which is miles better. however if you have a large divx xvid avi collection you wont be happy. some play. some dont. there's no telling until you try it, even hard wired, so its not a wireless bandwidth problem. i eventually gave up and returned it. who wants to spend all the time setting it up and wondering if it will work just to watch a video? instead i went with an old Xbox (at half the price as everyone is getting rid of them and going to the new 360), converted it to an Xbox media center (XBMC) and its genius. everything works no matter what...divx, xvid, ogg... and it can do so much else too (not to mention you can play games with an xbox if you want to). its not the simplest route but its 100 years past whats commercially available now.

"however if you have a large divx xvid avi collection you wont be happy.",
"some play.",
"some dont.",
"there's no telling until you try it, even hard wired, so its not a wireless bandwidth problem.",
"i eventually gave up and returned it.",
"who wants to spend all the time setting it up and wondering if it will work just to watch a video?",
"instead i went with an old Xbox (at half the price as everyone is getting rid of them and going to the new 360), converted it to an Xbox media center (XBMC) and its genius.",
"everything works no matter what...divx, xvid, ogg... and it can do so much else too (not to mention you can play games with an xbox if you want to).",
"its not the simplest route but its 100 years past whats commercially available now."

Undertand thine Enemy
|
This book is only good for those interested at how anti-environmentalists like to market their "ideas." Unfortunately, it completely miscasts scientific data and debate, and shapes it to suit their needs. I was suspicious when I saw that Dan Quayle's wife wrote the foreword to the book. My suspicions were confirmed after reading it. This book is only useful for one thing: picking apart with reasoned science.There are 15 factual errors on the first 2 pages of the book! How do they defend this? They don't. This is the kind of mindless, trival, volume that is of no use and of no consequence. Look elsewhere to educate your children. Not all environmental and ecology education books are about "gloom 'n' doom" as the authors of this volume put it. But hiding things from your children will only hurt/disable them for the future, when they encounter serious environmental degradation and changes, and are not equipped to understand what they are seeing.

Sell out album
|
I have a hard time understanding the other reviews I've seen for this album. I consider myself to be a hard core Tricky fan. But this latest album was an enormous disappointment. I listen to Tricky because he's different (very different) from the rest of the Hip Hop, rap, ambient, industrial crowd. Maxinquaye is an excellent sample of what i expect from his brand of genius. His work with Massive Attack is also indicative of his ability to entertain without marching to the same beat. I'm used to music that only HE could perform. This album sounds like it could be effectively performed by anyone. The first 7 songs on this album fall into the latest (and sadly the most lucrative) brand of music: Disposable. Most of these songs are the kind that would get played 100 times a day for 2 months & by month #3 be considered "played out". This is one that will get shelved, maybe traded in.

great baby tote!
|
I love this bag! With my first child (boy), I used the Skip Hop Duo in Blue Camo, which was fine but a tad small and casual-looking. This time I knew I wanted something more purse-like and roomy and don't forget Stylish! I did a lot of online research before going to the store to try on bags in person. When I saw this in the store, I was immediately drawn to it. The fit is great. Most of the baby bag straps don't stay on my shoulder but this does! I love how comfortable it feels as a cross-body too. The color is great and the feel of the outside fabric is wonderful - most bags now feel cheap and plastic-like. There is plenty of room inside (enough for my 5 yr old & baby stuff)and the included accessories are great. No need to carry a purse with this one. I will definitely be using this long after my baby girl is grown! Worth every penny!

Excellent precission!!!!! nice design and lots of buttons
|
Since I bought this mouse my computer experience has changed. I feel more comfortable with this mouse than the microsoft wireless explorer. The MX has volume control, e-mail and IM button. I haven't used the "notice lights" but I am very happy and satisfied with it. The accuracy is astonishing. It really follows your hand. It has better accuracy than the explorer. The explorer requieres a big communication/antena base. The MX uses just a USB connector. I got a USB extension cable though to keep it close to the area where the mouse is and reduce potential interference. The design is somewhat similar to the explorer, but my hand feels more comfortable on this. It turns on and off by itself. It uses two AA batteries every 2 or 3 months. With this mouse I don't miss the explorer!!!!!!!

Terrible phones
|
Click, click, click... Never stops clicking when talking on them. Can be heard from both ends. Bad Static. Poor range. Everything interfeeres with it. I will never buy another GE phone. I loved the look and feel. I like the features. But it's use is rediculious. And the batteries are always going dead. Avoid these phones.

Youngstown put the pedal to the steel
|
This disc is pure pop, plain and simple. If you love pop you should love this disc. The boys are cute, have great voices and even wrote some of the songs themselves. It's pretty impressive for a first cd. The upbeat songs (I'll Be Your Everything, Forever in Love, Lose My Cool) really put you in the mood to dance and have a good time. The only problem is that the disc leans heavily on ballads. The good thing is that most of them are really good. I espicially liked Whenever You need Me, Through Your Eyes, Jamie Lee and Remember. Overall their ballads are much more meaningful and truer than the mush put out by N'SYNC and BSB. That alone warrants a purchase.Also don't forget the GREAT packaging. What a cover image! The bold, bright colors associated with each member are carried down to the finest detail through out the booklet.Pick this disc up for some of the most fun and touching boy band pop around.

If you like bad books... This is a must have!
|
Definitely one of Jane Austen's worst books. At the beginning you think ...What?!! At the middle you think... Pretty good! But by the end you think... Give me a toilet so I can flush it down!!!!!!!!! You wait the ENTIRE book for something that happens in the last 2 pages. I quit 3 pages before the ending positive that Fanny would never get married. But then my sister said, "You just have to be patient." Then I told her that I had been patient for the last 384 pages and I certainly was not going to "be patient" any longer! Well I was patient and finished it, but I must confess I no longer know where the book is. Because when you turn around and throw a book into a cramped toy room. It is incredibly hard to find.
