" No Day But Today "
I love, love this film. I have to say that it is better than the actual play. I saw the play in NYC when Joey Fatone was cast as "Mark" in August 2002. Joey was great. You could tell he really wanted to get into the part. I think he should do more plays. I fell in love with the characters since then. Rent is such a moving story. Roger and mimi are my two favorites. I only wish I could have gotten to seen Adam pascal on broadway. I love his voice. I think Manely pope was there when I went to see it at the theater. Not too sure. If you have a chance to go to the play in NYC ,I would go. you can truly see how amazing this story is. Rent is closing - last show September 17 th 2008 !!! if not the movie is just as good. buy this dvd.

Surprisingly, A Beautiful Film
I have never been a wrestling fan, nor would I have ever put Mickey Rourke's name on my list of favorite actors. Until now. Despite the grittiness, the blood, the nudity and the heartache, this is a beautiful film. Because of all the pre-Oscar hoopla, I went to see this movie alone when my husband was at work and my child was at school. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I saw the film in January and I still find myself thinking about Randy the Ram. The character is unforgetable. In fact, Rourke played him so skillfully, so beautifully (sorry for the over use of that word, but it applies) that it doesn't seem as though it is a character at all. I feel as though he was a man that I knew at some point, though my life never came close to intersecting that kind of lifestyle. I have just purchased this on DVD because this is a great film. A classic. I can't wait for my [...] son to be old enough to watch this movie. I know he will be as moved as I have been.

Faulner's PYLON
PYLON is adrenalin-charged; moving at the speed of the work's live-fast die-young dare devil pilots and their machines. The motion like a whirlwind, however; circular, like the airplanes around and around the pylon (pole marking boundary of a race). Dizzying. The characters talk like they're on acid. The unnamed Reporter of the novel is a complete mystery: How to account for his Christ-like devotion to the pilots? A devotion that far exceeds Good Samaritanism. He gains nothing by association. He is an oddity--like Melville's Bartleby. Maybe he is Christ. Maybe the Holy Ghost. Who knows? It is baffling.

Good when it works
I've used two of these vests. The first was completely defective in that it wouldn't absorb water. The polymer gel once it got wet literally leaked out of the vest. The second one lasted about six weeks. In the end, the gel in it too wouldn't hold moisture. When it did work, it was great. I used it for bicycle riding in 100+ degree heat. It made the difference in feeling the heat. The drawback is that it's heavy when it's wet. Your shirt definitely gets wet too. When it loses it's evaporative ability after a couple of hours, it is still heavy and because it doesn't breath, you start to overheat. If you can keep it wet, then you're good, but if you don't have access to a ready water supply, you're out of luck. The big thing is that it's sort of pricey for it's short life span.

excellent
Possibly one of the greatest movies ever made. I really mean that. It's a perfect masterpiece. The acting is immeasurably good. The score is also beatiful with the use of the pan flute. The Karate Kid II is probably the only other movie that has affected me this much. I hope they release Karate Kid II on DVD soon. I'll definitely buy it. BTW, does anyone when and where I can get the score music to the karate kid? Also, what is that piece that is playing when Daniel is practicing his balance in the ocean. It sounds like a famous classical piece, but it's not listed in the credits. It's possible that it was scored for the film, but I'm not sure about that.

Best game I ever played!!!!!!
This is the best game I have ever played! It sure beats Mechwarrior 4 Vengence. The graphics are awesome. When another mech's arm or leg is blown off, you actually see that part missing. What also helps is the invincibility and no heat opitions you can use. The variaty of mechs is huge(I prefer the Fafnir for its ballistic capabilities, and the Sunder for its possible missile and beam weapons). What's also cool is the Free Market. In Mechwarrior 4 Vengence, you can only salvage, now you earn C-Bills(cash) to buy weapons, teamates and best of all Mechs of the Free Market. Another cool part is the Solaris VII arenas, you can make major C-Bills there.(Not to mention if you get to a certain point, the news area will talk about a fan club in honor of you!) Another thing is that you can choose from three diffrent endings, two ending with Steiner and one with Davion. This game is the BEST!

MY FIRST FAVORITE BAND
This takes me back to when I was 10-11 years old. They had the first concert on MTV. They were my first favorite band. I watched MTV hours on end just to see REO on TV. This album has one of the best power ballads of all time in "Keep On Loving You." Gary Richrath's "Take it on the Run," is one of the best songs about infidelity I have ever heard. "Tough Guys" featuring the Little Rascals (TV show) beginning is neat. "Out of Season" is one of REO's best rockers. This album even has a neat Bruce Hall song "Someone Tonight." It has it all. Of course, the hits "Don't Let Him Go" and "In Your Letter" are included and make this a great novelty record. I like to imitate K. Cronin by putting this album on the record player. There is nothing like vinyl.

If you like Twisted Metal 1,2,3,4 then you'll like this one
This game has really good graphics and awesome gameplay. You can play the story mode with one person to see why everyone is in the tournament or you can play an elimination. The elemination is really hard. You select your car and you battle against nine computer opponents one at a time. The battling never stops though until you die. You can play survival mode which is sort of like that. Those are all for one-player mode though. In two-player mode you can battle against two to four players in a deathmatch. Then you can play the story mode on co-op and you can play an elimination round which is where each player selects up to ten cars. you battle against each other with one car at a time until the other person blows up one car then you swich into another. There are tons of cars to choose from. this game is a must. you have to get it for you will love it.

A Lost Classic
This is for those who haven't heard the CD...Alright, you're here. You found the group. You found these reviews. You've passed the initiation. Now just get your hands on a copy of "Lulu" as soon as you can. Hooks. Harmonies. A strong, assured, fat guitar/bass underpinning to tight, soaring vocals. Not a bad song in the bunch. Just a touch of 'weird' to keep you guessing. Clean and bright production, the craft and unabashed musicality here is simply stunning throughout. Old or new, "Lulu" is as perfect a CD as you're likely to find.

Wait until you see what the test is REALLY like!!!
I just took the CPC test a few days ago. I did my course work. They did not really go over past tests but I had secured a simulation of one. I purchased this book because I felt sample tests were something I needed to practice. All the anatomy, etc., in this book is too in depth for what is on the test and overdone...look at how the test is setup. The book should be more based on CPT, ICD, HCPCS, real life examples of coding, etc., that you need for the test. I took the tests in the book and scored well on them.... Then comes the REAL test. OH MY GOSH. I found it to be much more difficult than the sample tests in the book or more difficult than any sample questions I had seen anywhere. And don't think that topics will be evenly covered - mine had 5 cath's on it and no spine, for example. The book didn't hurt, but you need to do much more work than just this book if you want to pass the test.

Very Disappointed
I paid $125 for this camera. It was malfunctioning when I recieved it. The zoom lens would not open, thereby rendering the camera useless. I returned the camera to [email protected]. That was 17 days ago and have not received a refund. So now buyjfgoods has my money and the camera. Be extremely leary with purchasing anything from this company. It is so unfortunate because I had an Olympus Stylus 400 for years and it was a very good point and shoot. Unfortunately Olympus no longer sells this model. I have many accessories from my first camera and was hoping to find a replacemnt. This experience, unlike any of my previous purchases from Amazon was extremely disappointing! I will never again buy from BUYJFGOODS and would discourage anyone else from doing so. VERY DISAPPOINTED! Glenn Smith

Aura wanted her, because lambert is trapped inside stanton's mind. She makes serena do strange things, and serena never knows she does them.... except at the foam party;). Anyway, serena keeps haveing blackouts in her memory, until she goes to the cliff to try and fool aura. What happens?.. aura knows she wont kill herself, and that stanton wont let ANYthing happen to her. So right when serena's about to hit the ground, stanton swoops her off in a dark cloud(which is him) serena.. or should i say aura... then frees lambert from stantons mind. What happens after that is unknown to you, UNTIL YOU READ DA BOOK!.. hehe.....

I feel sorry for the shark. And I don't care about this film
I have the first Jaws on video, widescreen. Beautiful. Spectacular. Amazing. I saw Jaws 2 on TV a few weeks back, and I shrugged my shoulders and thought "Ah, it's a decent sequel." Then I saw Jaws 3 (aka Jaws 3-D) and scratched my head. Finally, I got a chance to see Jaws the Revenge at a friends house...and I still don't understand WHY IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT'S GOOD would someone have such a cruel heart as to defile the greatness of Speilberg's masterpiece?! This film is a gross insult to the first Jaws. I feel sorry for Bruce the shark, and it's not just because he has been blown apart, electrocuted, blown apart again, and impaled by a boat!!! It's because he had to star in this WASTE!!! Well, Bruce, I still worship you when I watch the Jaws I have on video, from the time you snack down on the naked girl to the time you bite Quint in half.

A Waste of Ink and Paper
I am in the habit of buying books from new authors and small publishers to discover new talents. I will not even try to mask my disappointment with this book. The glowing reviews that showed up on this page were obviously written by friends or family members of the author. The plot is weak and the character dialogue is worse. The best thing I can say about this book is that it tries too hard. I have read more engaging words on the back of a cereal box. Apparently Harold Truman writes non-fiction as well. To be fair, I have never read his non-fiction. Perhaps it is better. But his weak attempts at fiction are adolescent in development at best. If you are thinking of buying this book do yourself a favor and read the first few pages online first. If those still strike you as interesting, then do yourself another favor and at least buy a used copy or go to a library.

Nothing new here
I gave up at page 156. When only one new major plot development occurred by that point, I just decided the book had wasted enough of my time. This romance novel has a decent idea behind it, and a possibly fascinating story line. Here's a witch who uses her supernatural powers to help businesses flush out bad employees. There could be numerous uses for someone with these kinds of skills. But the story is slow going, and the color-by-numbers romance scenes wore on my nerves--with the heroine always pulling back at the last minute. How many times have we seen that before? The dialogue was completely unnatural and I don't know how many times the reader had to learn that the heroine didn't believe in soulmates. Okay, we get it! Really, this smacks of amateurish writing with its heavy dependence on adverbs and lack of good, strong action. Where was the editor in this project?Let's just say it was a good idea that never lived up to its promise.

Rusted!
I found my overall experience with this spider to be less than so-so. I ended up tossing it in the recycling bin. Why, you might ask? Well here are the reasons:1. Nickel plated? That's fine for my pocket change, but I'm not sure I want that in my cooking utensils. Why the heck are they allowing this toxic (albeit in varying degrees) for cooking purposes?!2. It's not solid stainless steel.3. The edges are kind of jagged and rough. Those with softer skin may find issue with this.4. It rusts!!For your health, pass on the Typhoon and find a better quality skimmer.

I can't believe I actually wanted to see this movie! It was STUPIDDD! To dumb to be true! After 45 minutes of the movie me and my brother were about to barf! Jerry Bruckhiemer you dissapointed me totally. This is on my Top 2 Worst movies I ever saw! (Next to Mr. Mom). DUMB! STUPIDDD! This movie is for pack mules. And if they make a sequel BOO...!! I'll punch Jerry Bruckhiemer in the jaw! I'd better get off the review and stop writing. I just want to say one more thing this movie was the definition for PATHETIC! P.S. the reason I'm quitting the review is because I'm waiting for a phone call from Planet DORK!

Livvy Tries to be Queen of Kink (AND FAILS!!)
This (as another reviewer said) proved to be ONJ's kiss of death to her career. The CD was embarassing. The title track was so badly produced it sounded like half way through the song you switched over radio stations. "Toughen Up" was a Tina Turner reject. (there's a reason why singers reject songs and 99% of the time they are right). Culture shock is well..Downright stupid. Queen of the Publication is "Well what is it??" The only stand out is "The Right Moment." "Moth to a Flame" is minor hit single material and "Overnight Observation" is fun but that's it.ONJ tried to be sexy and kinky but couldn't pull it off. She is the girl next store. NOT THE QUEEN OF KINK. Madonna had that role. And Sheena Easton for all her comparison to ONJ could pull of sexy. Livvy you are my favorite but this CD is what killed your career.

Disappointed, But Not For The Reason You May Think
I ordered this for my 9-year-old grandson who has a lot of trouble with motion sickness. I can't really say yet how well it works because I just opened the package. I'm writing now because I'm unhappy with what I received. They won't let you choose a color, so I assumed they would surely send a gender-neutral color. Was I ever shocked when I opened the package to find PINK bands. My grandson is at the age where he is anti-girls and anti-pink. I wonder if I'll even be able to get him to wear this. I'm tempted to return it. How much trouble could it really be to allow your customers to choose a color??Update: I am returning the bands today. Just as I suspected, my grandson would not entertain the notion of wearing pink wrist bands. I wish they would replace them with a more appropriate color because I would certainly like to find out if they really work.

Great for the money!!!
I recently bought the JVC DVD player. The three disc tray is very helpful. It is a great looking machine. The JVC has good picture quality. It has quite a few extra features (most I will never use.) The price is what sells this. That is very hard to beat. It does have a couple drawbacks though:The remote control is awful. I dont know who designed it but it needs some serious improvements. Buttons our in awful places. Many buttons you will need to use our so small you have to be looking at the remote right up close to find it. The other main problem is the loading time. Once you put a new CD or DVD in, it seems to take forever to load. At the menu screens, you press a button and wait for about 7 seconds. This is much longer than it should be.Overall, I would recommend this product to people who want a new remote control and for people who have a lot of patience. Another reason, that great price.

TI-83 Plus SE leaves other calcs in the dust
The TI-83 SE is very very very good. Probably very x 10^6. I like it because it has the console of a Ti-83, but the power of a Pocket PC. I have read speed tests conducted by CASIO fans on normal Ti-83's. Its nonsense. According to that test, it took 30-40 secs for a ti-83 to add matrices and display numbers from 1 to 1000 simultaneously in a program. Well, I decided to do that on my SE. It took merely 7 secs. On the box/package it comes in, it states that it is 2.5 times faster than a normal TI-83 plus. DON'T DOUBT IT!!! It graphs at great speeds. It may not have built-in 3D graphing capabilities of a TI-92 but many have created 3D engines for the TI-83 plus, and on the SE, it is so darn cool! I would recommend this calculator for all High School Students who are at least in Intermediate Algebra/Trig/Pre-Calculus. If you are a person who is looking for more memory and speed for games and programs, this is the calc that will do it. My score: 5 / 5

Skip This One, Too!
Until now, the Daisy Dalrymple series has been fairly enjoyable. This book, however, is a HUGE disappointment. The previous book, To Davy Jones Below, set on the high seas, was bearable. This one isn't. Set in New York City and ultimately Eugene, Oregon (author Carola Dunn's current home) the book is a hodgepodge. The identity of the murder victim, the "Murdered Muckraker" of the title, is vague. He was a muckraker? The plot is weak and the book is overloaded with characters of little interest. Daisy's new husband, Alec, appears briefly at the end of the book. Overall, this is a disasterous potboiler just barely keeping the series alive. I plodded to the finish of this book but I'm not giving up yet. Hopefully, when Daisy goes home to England, the next book will be better.

Anxiety Wrap is a GREAT PRODUCT!
I've used the Anxiety Wrap for 2 dogs. The first was my german shepherd who was a rescue. He was terrified during thunderstorms and would pace, pant, shake and try to get under the couch, knocking things over to do so. When he wore The Anxiety Wrap, he simply laid down and went to sleep. YEAH! My newest dog is afraid of storms and fireworks. She'll shake, pant and will crawl up in bed with me in the middle of the night, trying to glue herself to me. Needless to say, neither of us get a good night's sleep! The first time I put The Anxiety Wrap on her when a storm came, she pranced around the house with it a couple of times, then laid down and went to sleep. This is a GREAT PRODUCT!!

Korn/Take A Look In The Mirror
I got the CD on the 20th cuz of high demands. I knew it was going to be my favorite CD this year. Korn hasd always been Korn. They never ever try to copy anyone else, they stay true to Korn and what they always have done. This Album shows there Here to stay. Korn has had problems in the past everything has been resolved and everything is better than ever. Korn produced this Cd by themselves. Showing everyone they work truely to heart.This Cd is definetly there heaviest work yet and its the best put together CD too. If you like heavy music and Korn you wont be dissapointed. Jon is back to his raw screaming emotions. Still true to himself even though hes sober. This CD is worth more than its being charged for.Buy it

Michael Jackson - His New Beginning
I bought the CD this pass weekend. It has been an album that many people have been waiting for. I have been a Michael Jackson fan since grade school, when wearing the Michael Jackson Jackets were the cool "In Thing" at the time. Michael Jackson is an individual with roots of Entertainment that go all the way back since the 70's. I recommend buying the album and listening through it a couple of times. It has some really good "Sexy" tracks when are alone with your spouse or girlfriend. Songs like "Butterflies" and "Heaven Can Wait". My favorite song on the album is the first song "Unbreakable". It is an up-beat song that will have you playing it over and over again. This is an album that has potential to give Michael Jackson a new beginning. Rating: B+

The Bourne bore.
As luck would have it, I had nothing good to read one night, so I picked this one up from the stacks in my garage. Robert Ludlum is a story teller, not a writer. I finished it out of pride, not desire. It has a nice plot, but the writing is poor, disjointed and a lot of the story is implausible. For instance, Jason Bourne travels all over Hong Kong and into Chi Com with a briefcase full of money and no one catches on? Wouldn't the briefcase be in the way when he was doing all that fighting and stuff? Marie's escape and flight was interesting, and the described chaos of Hong Kong is believable.Do I want to read any other Ludlum books? Not unless I don't have to pay for them and I have nothing else to read. Evidently this book was a best seller for weeks and weeks. Must be an East Coast thing. In the west we recognize tripe when we see it.

Great Effort
First and foremost, the accompanist, Malcolm Martineau, shines stylistically in this recording. He is very in tune with Bryn's voice and its habits. Bryn Terfel needs to learn a few more tricks or use them less often. He does everything he is capable of in one piece; you might as well stop listening after the first track/lieder because every piece sounds the same. His tone is very beautiful, as always. I've heard Bryn be compared to Fischer-Dieskau, and I have to say that Fischer-Dieskau's recording, although, not as skilled of singer, is much more expressive and in tune with the music. I almost wish that Bryn had copied Fischer-Dieskau's recording. I know that that's horrible, but I would love to hear Dieskau's artistry on a voice like Bryn's. I'm just not surprised anymore when Bryn uses his sotto/mezzo voce in every piece. Don't get me wrong; it's a great trick. BUT it doesn't sound like he is making music with it anymore. He's doing what he thinks is impressive.

Will make your heart beat faster
This movie is one of the most underratet movies that I ever had the pleasure to watch. I'm going to study Movie-Director, and so I usually watch movies just from the technical side. But this masterpiece of suspense kept me glued to the seat when I first watched it. By my opinion it is one of the most haunting movies ever, cause the real terror is not obvious to see, but caused by the main characters. There are many great shock-moments that will make your heart beat like a heavy-metal drum. The special-effects are also state-of-the-art. But I have to say, that the movie is pretty violent and so not very suited for people with not so strong stomachs. But if you have the gift of bringing a strong stomach with you, this movie is a "must-see" for you. The ending of the movie ist the most shocking scene, I ever encountered. Try to watch it in slow-motion. But do not eat anything before. Don't say I didn't warn you!

Not very cool
This cd was a let down. I go to the record store. I'm looking for some good punk rock. "Social D" I think to myself, "They're awesome punk rock, right? 'White Light, White Heat, White Trash' was the coolest cd ever, so this must be cool, right?" Wrong. Not to speak badly of Mikey Ness, or anything, but this album was far too slow. It had too much of a focus on Mike's voice and not enough on the music itself. But that's my opinion, I notice that other people gave it five stars. That's cool, I guess. I just don't agree.

Disney Ruined Doug
When on Nickalodean a while back, Doug was an amazing and popular cartoon that was impressive by any standard. It didn't need anything special but the classic kid with the imagination. When it went to Disney, the magic was gone forever. The show was no longer entertaining, but a pathetic cry for attention. It tried to be too independant and unrealistic as far as plots go. Then, they decided to kill Doug off once and for all. How? They made a movie. It was uninteresting, annoying, unrealistic, and the monster looked like a Barney on crack or something. Thanks a lot, Disney. You ruined yet another great thing.

Worst. Game. Ever.
Ugh. This game is so abhorently, dreadfully awful, it's downright painful to play. I feel stupider for having wasted the 45 minutes it took me to give up on it. There is not a single redeeming feature to speak of. Frankly, I'm stunned that Mirage managed to stay in business after their last lemon of a game, Mortyr. But somehow, this one is even worse. There is no reason to waste your time on this, when there are so many excellent shooters out there. Just this past month Mafia, Hitman 2, and No One Lives Forever 2 came out. All are very good. ... On a side note I feel pity for the unfortunate soul who gave this game 5 stars. He clearly played this game a little too long and suffered brain damage..

Awful DVD
A lifetime TF fan of the original series, the movie was a classic, when I first saw it August 9, 1986. I wish the new characters didn't have to be introduced by killing off the favorite characters. It was awful to see fire spewing out of Prowl's mouth, when he was killed. And Ironhide's head being blown off by Megatron. I just saw the Kid Rhino DVD, and it was the sorriest way to bring a classic movie to DVD. The colors were too bright, and the animation was choppy. Besides the interview with the composer of the music, this DVD didn't have any features. It was just sloppily thrown together, just to get a DVD of the movie out there. I hope in the future, Paramount (Who is filming the new Transformers movie) gets in touch with Marvel/Sunbow, and re-release the original film, complete with trailers from the original film, plus toy commercials, featuring the movie characters. This is one movie, Kid Rhino, should have never put their hands on. This DVD sucked!!!!

HUMANIZING A "KING"
Goldman (or is it "COLDMAN"?), does indeed become sarcastic at times, and his desciption of certain events are emblazoned with the MAD MAGAZINE SEAL OF APPROVAL. Yet his stitching together of Presley's career and life, doesn't seem to deviate from the accounts offered by Elvis' own "Memphis Mob". If anything, after reading this unauthourized bio, I feel more in touch with Elvis than ever, and also have a decidely more positive view of Elvis. I really feel for the man. Moreover, I appreciate his work more than ever, and share with Elvis his dream of being a serious actor. I despise Colonel Tom, and see the "inner circle" for the manipulative and exploitive parasites they were. Seems to me, Goldman was the best person to pen this bio, as he is somewhat grandiose as well. Perhaps we all are. Even the King! In a left-handed way, thats a compliment to Elvis. He was just like you and me.

Non-Intel Macs read this...
I was planning to purchase iLife '09. Why not? It's the most current version, right? But in my research I found out that iLife '09 does not work fully with non-Intel-based Macs. And, of course, I don't have an Intel-based Mac. There are many warnings on blogs and other sites about iMovie not working properly with iLife '09 unless you have an Intel Mac. Definitely something for you to look into before you decide whether to purchase '08 or '09. Hope this warning helps you make an informed decision. If you're not planning to use iMovie, then you could probably go right to '09. But if that's something you're looking forward to using, do a little more research and maybe think about getting '08. Good luck!

Fantastic End to a Fantastic saga!
Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith is without a doubt the best Star Wars movie ever made. I know that some people won't agree with me. I'm 16 and I remember seeing The Phantom meance for the first time in thaters when i was ten! I of course have seen the originals and they are great, but I grew up on this new prequel trilogy. What I love about this film is that it ties up all the loose ends, has greatly improved acting, emotional scences and a breathtaking battle between Anakin and Obi-Wan. But most importantly it takes the charcater of Darth vader from just being an iconic villian to a tragic hero. It is everything you could ask from a Star Wars film. i wish some "Star Wars" fans would bash this film because it didn't live up to their expections. Some people you can't please!! Finally, you can look at Star Wars not just as two trilogies, but as one all film saga. Thanks George for taking us to that galaxy far,far away!

Terrible
One listen to this man's horrible voice and you know its a disaster. People's affection for this over hyped under devilered mess is beyond me. First off, his voice is weak, horrible, off-key, annoying and unable to express any emotion what-so-ever. The songs themselves are at the most barely catchy. I suppose if one wanted to write songs that were most complex and less straight forward that would be good, that is obviously not the case here. He wants to write songs and play them yet his guitar skills are average at best. The songs don't have any punch to them at all and you can't hum these things. No melody, no groove, no reason. This is just another horrible POP(ular) band from the 90s with poor music skills (which is all too common among the mainstream. One last thing 'Alternative Music' is a market name for POP. This band is Pop and its powerless.

Perfect music. Poor sound.
This review is related to the Japanease release (mini-LP replica) of Swiss Movement.This is one of the greatest jazz performances. Spirit. Soul. Life. Drum. Ecstasy. But the sound quality is of big questione. Yes, it is dated to 60's. Yes, it was recorded at the concert. But the bonus track showcases how good the sound quality could have been on this release. On all other tracks you hear drums, keyboards and voice in your left channel and the horns in your right channel. Bass is almost not defined and is boom-boom box rather than a set of strings. The audience is in your right channel, too.This is a great piece of jazz (probably, a must have). But it is definitely not an audiophile record or even close to it.

Just plain awful!
I wasn't that excited about this book to begin with. I'm not all that interested in books based on the events prior to the classic trilogy but I'm a Star Wars freak and I own every Star Wars based novel so I had to buy this one. This book was terrible. It is almost as bad if not worse than Children of the Jedi. The storyline was disjointed and bland. The new characters were shallow. I especially couldn't stand the bloodcarver. The chapters were so short that it was impossible to get into the pertaining plotline. Because of the short chapters I was never compelled to continue to read. A Star Wars book usually takes me two to three days to read. This one took me a week. The only high point was Tarkin. It was interesting to see this character, who had always compelled me, expanded on. Sienar was also an interesting guy but that was about it. Unless you're a die hard fan like me I would not recommend this book. It really stinks.

Leaky Bottles
I see where others have stated that if you read the directions these bottles will not leak. That is NOT so. I am an educated person and I have checked and re-checked the bottles, they are assembled correctly. These bottles are awful about leaking, and sometimes you can just turn the bottle a certain way to keep them from leaking, but it is very frustrating to leak your hard-earned breast milk from a poorly constructed bottle. The other reviews are correct unfortunately-the nipples are the best and that is why I continue to use them. My daughter will not take any other nipple even after trying other brands. She likes the advent ones. My recommendation to all moms would be to not even start with the advent ones. I have been told the vent aire from playtex are great and never leak. ???

Absolutely hysterical, especially for fans of the genre.
This really is a fun little movie. If you love those great 50s sci-fi gems this is a must for you. Done in a tongue-in-cheek style "It Came from Hollywood" is a compellation of some of the funniest (unintentionally) scenes from some of the cheesiest movies ever made. Absolutely hysterical, especially for fans of the genre. Highly recommended.---------------------------------------------------------------Sadly this was never released on DVD. Various DVD websites have indicated that it was cancelled before it was released. Martin Blythe of Paramount confirmed it in a post at DVD Talk. Paramount took this off of their July 2002 schedule because of those dreaded "clearance problems."On a down note, through recent correspondence with Paramount I asked if they were planning on revisiting a release of this title sometime in the future and was told "no plans - clearances would be impossible". C'MON PARAMOUNT - NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE!!!

Double Team Review
It has overused cliches form the 1980's even though this was made in 199[bleeping]7. It also has dumb[bleep] basketball puns from Dennis Rodman who has little screentime in the film. Even Mike Awesome had more screentime while he was in WWE. Jean-Claude Van Damme has the acting skills of a drunk 4 year old. Slam Master J can outact this guy. The freeze editing in this film is weird like Weird Al. Get it? Worst of all,the idea of Jean-Claude Van Damme & Dennis Rodman teaming is weird and make no sense. I seen better team-ups in WCW during it's dying years. The only best of the film is the explosion of the colosseum. I give this movie a 2 out of 10.

Terrible
This game is a terrible game! I hated it in every way! The game involved little play, most of it was movies. It was almost like pokemon yellow in the fighting system. The grapics were good but only is some scenes. In the rest, the grapics were grainy. The bosses past the half point of the game were super impossibly hard to beat. Before the half point the bosses were super incedibly easy to beat. The storyline was non progressive.(it stayed the same through the whole game) There was a pokemon style of travel. You walk a bit, fight a bit, and thats about it. The cut scenes were SOOOOOOO LONG, and they wernt always with good grapics. Personally, the only thing that I would recommend this game for is to throw it in the trash.

Absolutely Brillant
As soon as a heard the soft melodies and euphoric build ups of this album, I was immediately hooked. The only thing that bothered me was the vocals. However, after the 3rd or 4th listen they grew on me. It was hard for me to grow accustomed because I have never really heard a singer that sounds like that before. In fact, I would go as far to say that he makes some of the songs. In the climax of "Spring Divorce" (which is my favorite song) he screams "Are you scared? Are you scorned? Are you sick? Are you bored? Do you feel cheated? Do you feel lost? Is this not what you signed up for?". The definate high point of the album for me. Other great songs include: Belly Full of Hell, Dancing On The Face of Pan, and Dying by Degrees. This is a definate must buy for fans of Bear vs. Shark, Blood Brothers, and These Arms Are Snakes.

Andre Breton Vs. Miles Davies
Well not really. But Ken Nordine has opened a portal to a whole new and different musical space. This is Jazz-Rap. There are some great reviews on this page for this extraordinary album and I'm just another voice to endorse this work. Whatever you might expect - DON'T. There is humour here, pathos, and total dis-orientation. This album is way out in left-field, like the little schitzophrenic voice that torments all our souls from time to time. Give in to it! Take time-out from whatever you are into to get a whole new perspective of what music is capable of. This is Jazz not because of the sax stabs but because there is an improvisational logic to Nordines crazy stories. It is surrealism for the same reason. There is a stream-of-consciousnees feel to these tales. The net effect is slightly unnerving but great fun nevertheless. Highly recommended!

Best CD/DVD pen
I did a lot of research before buying these pens. There are many out there that say they are intended for CD/DVD writing. However, these are the only ones I found that are guaranteed to be solvent free and alcohol free so that they cannot affect the CD surface. The pens have two tips, which is also nice. However, the smaller tip is what I would call "medium" and the one I use. The larger tip is really too big to write much in the space available. The smaller tip leaves a dark and easy to read message, and you can get several lines of text on the CD surface if you write very carefully. My only complaint is that these pens are pretty pricey for what they do, especially when one factors in the shipping. I could not find them in any of my local stores, so an online order was the only option. I decided to bite the bullet to make sure I don' damage my critical CDs and DVDs. Highly recommended.

Solid
Short and Simple: One of the best new CDs i've heard in ages. I'm not into any of the 'current' metal/rock music. I tend to just stick with my trusty Rollins, NIN and Pumpkins CDs for visceral artistic value, or Metallica when I just want lead-veined thrash. I took a leap on this album and was pleasantly surprised. Favorite Tracks: The Grudge, Parabol/Parabola, Lateralus. I really like the lyrics and sound to these songs. The whole CD is outstanding, really. Only track I don't care much for is the last one (which doesn't actually qualify as a song anyhow), which is a little too pretentious and silly even for art-metal, but even it is tolerable. To sum it up... if you're looking for mindless pop metal, this ain't it. If you're looking something vaguely spiritual, meaningful, artistic and yet still heavy and uncompromising... I highly recommend this.

For what it may be worth
I read a little of this book and then found that I just didn't want to waste my time reading any more. And it sounded so interesting in the NYTimes review! I feel this book is pure garbage. He seems to be under the impression that every thought and memory which flits through his head is of great value. Just as power corrupts, fame insufflates the ego - unless you have the supreme wisdom to resist it. I read halfway thru another book called something like 'the delights of aging'. It was just as disappointing. And I'm aging. Are there any books which genuinely make you believe aging isn't as bad as it feels? Like that music isn't as bad as it sounds? Maybe self-delusion is the only way to joyfully tolerate the whips and scorns. Maybe that's Mortimer's real message here - message by example.

Analogies for dummies
Sorry i took this expression from another reviewer, but it's just the right description. The book is waaay too long. What a brick. I saw his documentary on the Elegant Cosmos, or something like that, and it was fun, so I decided to read the book. What a failure.It's just a jungle of words and similes that only make it more complicated to figure out what he's talking about instead of stating the real thing, which would have been more helpful. I read most of it, as much as I could. But I quit because I came to a point that I felt: So what about all this? What difference does it make? I can't see the implications. There's no synthezising, no summary. I don't know what to make of it. Why should I care about the fabric of the cosmos anyway? What about the implications?The author just seems to be pouring out his mind, conversing to himself while writing. No plan, no organization.Imagine space/time as a loaf of bread, says he. Come on!

disappointed
I picked out this model several years ago as a watch that I could use, but one that I easily replace if damaged on the job. It worked out great. Fast forward to Dec 2011 as I was activated and deployed to Afghanistan. I took the watch with me, but lost it enroute. Once in Afghanistan, I ordered another one exactly like my last. Order arrived promptly, and I started wearing the watch. Today, which is two days after I received it, the time adjustment pin fell out. Now the watch is useless. It seems to me that another review I read prior to purchase indicated the same problem. I always had good luck with Timex watches, but not with this current model. Will I own another Timex? I probably will, but am disappointed with this purchase.

THIS IS SANDRA'S WORST MISTAKE EVER!
I rented this movie becuase I thought it would be interesting just because Sandra Bullock was in it. I am so happy that I onlty spent 3 bucks on it becuase the movie is a waste of time. I fast forwarded throughout the whole thing and still didn't get to the end. It dragged on and on, the acting seemed poor (even sandra's) which really surprised me. The quality of the film was low and that wouldn't have made a difference if there was a good plot line. I was so dissapointed and coulnd't belive this was a Sandra Bullock movie. I also couldn't believe that she was nude in the film. After having the girl next door image for so long, I couldn't believe the sex scene. It showed her having sex from behind. Sandra! That's probably the only thing that may persuade you to buy it, but other than that this is the worst film i have seen in a long long time. I cannot emphasize that enough. I rented Frequency too, and that one is a good buy or rental.

I was really surprised
When I first got this I thought it wouldn't work. I got it started with a file and the dust wasn't sticky at all just powdery, but I tried it and it gripped perfectly once on the hair. I don't know how this stuff works but it's good. It's a good amount of grab but not too much. The biggest perk that I wasn't expecting is that its almost dustless. After a 3 hour rehearsal there was plenty of rosin on my strings, but only a couple flecks on my cello. It also seems to not change with the temperature fluctuations. Oh, and the protective container is top notch. I'm a college student and it gets thrown in my backpack or music bag and books put on top of it, etc. It has not even cracked. It also is a twist cap so you don't have to worry about it slipping off. I have to say that Super Sensitive got it right with this one. My only complaint is that it took a lot of work to get the cake started, but that's not a big deal to me.

stay far away
this unauthorized dvd has NO band footage, NO interviews with the band and NOT ONE video. it was all interviews with fans and clips of people outside shows. i found it to be choppy, repititive and pieced together like a jigsaw puzzle. it is as if someone had clips of korn and put it together themselves. i thought the DEUCE DVD was much better. there were some interesting parts, like the origins of the band and its name but again, it does not come from the band themselves. if your going to do a DVD about a band, the band should be IN IT especially since KORN and their fans are pretty intense. korn fans are known to be rabid and about the band and yet on this, there is not one clip with the band? seems odd. i reccommemd you either rent, beg, borrow or steal it before you buy but otherwise stay away. i bought this and returned it the next day.

I had never seen either of these movies, so I was taking a chance. For less than $10.00 I had to go for it. It's Bruce Willis for Pete's sake. I thought both movies were really pretty good. The blu-ray was pretty good in both films also. I didn't expect them to have as good video quality as they did. I can't judge the audio because I don't have surround sound, but it sounded ok to me. I like the fact that they were both in 2:40:1 aspect ratio. This way I can see the whole film & not have the ends cut off. They all should be like this. I would recommend these [2] films to anyone who is a Bruce Willis fan. I don't think you will be disappointed.

Soul Surfer
I bought this book in the paper back version for my fifth grader. She loved the book and wrote a book report on it. This is a true account written by Bethany Hamilton. She wrote her thoughts down, and a writer wrote the story for her. It's a great book of encouragement and faith by her whole family. Her father and mother and both her brothers are wonderful people. Bethany is a lucky girl to be alive, and have a wonderful family. She is also selling parfumes for boys and girls that are shaped like surf boards. Soon a movie is going to be made about this story. I am dying to see it, and compare it to her book. This is a wonderful story, read it, and you won't be sorry. Bethany is a very brave girl, and an encouragement to us all! I wonder though, if they were avid surfers, didn't they know that you shouldn't surf so early, when sharks come in to feed? The water was calm and glassy, not even the kind one would want to try and surf in. Only God would know.....

Not worth it!
Ok, I read the reviews. I am truly stupid for not "reading" the reviews. Really, this book isn't that good. Even for fans of Garth Ennis. Skip it.This book reads like it was written by a bunch of ten year olds. Now, shame on me for not reading the other reviews that said "this book was written by a bunch of ten year olds." Because that's basically what you're getting. Let's take the premise which is a prostitute gets super powers and comes across the Justice League. That's it.Yes, I love comic books. Yes, I love Garth Ennis. Yes, I've read the Preacher and The Boys. They're crude at times but still tell a story. This doesn't have much of a story. I'm sorry that I didn't skip it. Unless you're a die-hard fan....

I would give it NO stars if i could
It would really take more than 1000 words to describe how bad this cd is. THe lyrics are very shallow and empty, there is a real lack of meaning. The sound is not original at all. It is pop music with a lot of repition, the songs all sound similar. Most cds i buy, i listen to a lot, this one gets boring so quickly. The songs sound like the band is trying so hard to make it sound kool, but unfortuatly it didn't work. I was very surprised, i had expected a lot more from smashmouth. But i soon learned that i shouldn't have expected much. THe lead singer, acts immaturely towards other talented musicians in the industry. ANd this attitude is only magnified in the music. I wouldn't reccomend buying this cd, but if you really want it, i'll pay you to take mine. -person who wasted good money on a bad cd

Not well made...disgrace to the sitcom...
Bewitched is a movie that seemed like it may be a good movie. I usually put off movies if reviews are bad but this one looked like maybe since it wasn't hyped so much it would be the surprise hit of the summer. I was wrong. This movie was not funny. I love Will Ferrell but he is just annoying in this part. Whiny and self absorbed. Also the plot is full of wholes and characters pop up into the plot for no real reason except to have another character. The part that actually got good was towards the end. If they would have cut out half the movie at the beginning and started from the end this movie may have worked but since they didn't the movie also didn't work. I did like the innocent jokes that Nicole Kidman had but even after a while the boredom had taken over and it was hard to even muster a laugh. My advise if you want to see this movie wait until it is on video and then wait until it goes to cheap rentals.

What the HECK?!?!
What was KISS thinking doing an alternative album?!?! "Hate" is the only redeeming song on this alternative piece of crap!! Only Nirvana fans will like this one!! After playing this in my CD player, I had to give my CD player a quick dose of "anti-suck" in the form of "Duece". THANK GOD my player works still. What's with that cover?!?! That's THE worst cover I've seen on a KISS album!! AVOID THIS AT ALL COSTS!! Unless you're collecting the entire set of KISS CD's, like me. It's better used as a drink coaster!!

Poor customer service plagues Canon
Wow, talk about poor customer service. I purchased the G2 and when it arrived today and did not work properly I contacted Canon. They said they would gladly repair the camera but were unwilling to replace it or guarantee a quick turn around. With a planned trip to the Carribean next week I'm stuck with a non-refundable plane ticket, a defective camera, and a company who could care less about helping solve a problem caused by their defective product. It seemed reasonable to me that they correct this problem but a supervisor told me that Canon does not replace defective cameras. I read another posting about Canon's poor customer service but thought it was just a fluke. I assure you that is not the case. Even the best companies have defective products, but I was expecting more from Canon in terms of correcting the problem. Buyer beware! PS, I hear Nikon and Minolta are very responsive and customer focused. I plan to return my camera and purchase anything but a Canon.

a must-have for the serious programmer!!
I am still reading this book, The only word that I can describe about this book is EXCELLENT, almost PERFECT. no toy example. very in-depth explanations about the java. Actually I really like the comment part with c++. I got experience about c++. The comment with c++ even make me think about something about c++. I got bunch of java books, All these books either are full of toy examples for dummies, or you can't understand what they are talking about. Cay & Gary really know java and c++. they touched the very deep down of java and c++. you get this book, you don't need others. and you save money. Sure, I am so eager to get the volume II. I am really interested in the JDBC and Java Bean part.

Elvis & Me One of the best movies I have seen in my life
When I first saw this movie Elvis and Me, I didn't think I would like it that much. Then I changed my mind.Dale Midkiff did a WONDERFUL job playing Elvis. The way he would smile, laugh, look dramatic, and look at the actress Susan Walters whom was playing Precilla. Dale made it feel like you were in the movie and seeing how Elvis would treat his young wife with love. All I could say was WOW.It made me realize that I wanted to do this kind of thing. I want to be an actress when I am a little bit older.The director did a great job with this film.I love this movie. I watch it every day and all the time. Also, I am now a bigger fan of Elvis Presley than I was before I saw this movie. I give this movie 5 stars. This is one of the best movies I have ever seen in my entire life. I LOVE THIS MOVIE. It is my favorite movie ever.

It looks like I'm going RioVolt after all...
I've had this unit for over 2 months now. First problem was the first unit I brought home was defective, brand new in the package. After a swap out, I used this thing on and off until I finally got enough NiMH rechargeables to be able to swap. Now that I'm using it constantly, here's the rundown. This seems to be VERY temperature sensitive. After warming up, it seems to work reasonably well. Until then, it will skip through the first 4 or 5 songs randomly. Then, the volume control is digital, and there is DEFINITELY not enough volume for my use (in car thru cassette). The backlight problem seems trivial until you run into it. I don't believe this is a reasonable alternative to the RioVolt SP250 from what I've read lately, and the prices for all the units seemed to have dropped precipitously recently from when I purchased this. Don't compromise unless you are TRULY strapped for the difference.

OMG These are so tasty.
Ok Protein bars are gross. Especially for someone who really doesn't like chocolate as much as the rest of the world. I'd eat a snickers bar, peanut butter cup and a twix but that's pretty much it. Chocolate cake yuck. Ice cream. Yuck. So it was real tough for me to find a tasty protein bar cause they love covering them in chocolate (though I have found some other flavors such as this) but they aren't in large quantity. SO I read the description and it said chunky peanut butter. The coating is coca which doesn't takes like the dark chocolate coating i've found everywhere else. These bars are tasty. OMG. Almost like a recies peanut butter cup but a little thicker. I could eat these all day long and are perfect!

It's called Valerin...
What is with the "Leg cramps, muscle cramps" where the name should be? This stuff is clearly called "Valerin."Now that I have that off my chest... It works. It helps a lot, anyway. I still have extra tense muscles sometimes, but since I began taking Valerin, I have not been incapacitated by the resulting neck, back, and shoulder pain. Also, I notice almost no side effects. My stomach is not crazy about valerian root--and there is enough of that in here to make the tablets smell of it--so I sometimes notice some (very mild) stomach upset. And I do feel slightly woozy a few minutes after taking it. But nothing that would, say, interfere with driving or caring for my child.I would recommend this product. I wish I didn't have to take close to the maximum dose daily, because that will work out to the large size (two bottles, 340 tablets total) being just over a one month supply. But I will be buying this again.

Dont B'dumb and buy this album!
Saying Beyatche' is overrated is an on the money statement. Her voice is about as painful to the ear as a police or an ambulance siren. Deja Vu, the first single is about as dead as the dancing in that bland video. Jay-z's verse was dull and forgettable like this single. Ring the Alarm is just as bad with Beyatche' doing her worst Kelis impression on the hook. Upgrade U is hot garbage plus another bad beat Swizz Beatz is too much. Also Jay-z's verse on this song is just as butt as his verse on Deja Vu/You call shots/ I call audibles/SIGH! Irreplaceable is the cheesy hoodrat anthem of the year and if I see another dude sing or bumping this song in his ride I am going to pull out all my dreads one by one! Kitty Kat is probably the only song on here that is somewhat decent but thats it. The rest of this album is trash. Call me a hater but it is what it is. This album is bootyhole! F*** this high class hoodrat!

Wow! D+ For this movie!
Let me start this review by listing some things that make this movie horrible!1. Amature acting2. Movie is supposed to be set in the 19th century but it has a flame thrower, goggles, modern throwing knives and a modern revolver!3. Some of the dialog is too modern like "She has nothing on you"!4. Werewolf and werewolves are obvious cgi's5. Stealth and camouflage This wasnt even used in ww1 no longer anytime in the 19th century!Despite all of the flaws and mistakes both historical and technical. I found this to be a movie that is slightly entertaining and I watched it with curiosity.A few tips to the filmmakers of this movie.1. Next time hire actors not random people you pick off the street who want to be a actor.2. Get your historical facts right! Do some bloody research!3. Use better cgi software!4. Spend more money to get it done right!

PASSED WITH A 90%
This is great material. I had the book an the CD. I would read a chapter and then take the practice test. I did this for every chapter until I had completed every chapter in the book. After that I would take the practice tests on the CD and see where my weak areas were. I studied for apprx five weeks and got a 90. I would recommend that anyone who take the 7 to master the options and muni bond chapter. The real test is very similar to the questions in the CD. The CD is a very important tool. I know of people who have passed only using the CD. I would purchase this set if I was taking the 7 again. Good luck!

Very pleased with performance for cutting concrete
I have been hunting for a cordless saw to match with a diamond blade cut concrete. This is the ONLY choice. The big problem is that every other cordless circular saw is a 6.5" size. Go try to find a diamond 6.5" diamond blade with the right arbor size. Doesn't exist. So this saw came to the rescue. Its 36V are indeed enough power for me. We tried the concrete cutting, and it works pretty well. We're happy. Thanks Dewalt. (why is this the ONLY 7.25" cordless circular saw sold today -- is that such an obscure niche of the marketplace???)

Works great on bed bugs
I had tried everything on the shelf in hardware stores and beyond for bed bugs and nothing seemed to work. The fumes from some of the things I bought made me sick. This was my last product I was going to try. I cleaned then sprayed every piece of furniture in my apartment five days in a row. The first few days there seemed to be the same amount of bed bugs. By the fourth day there were only a few. By the fifth day they disappeared. I still spray every day. I mixed a quart bottle of water with a capful of KLEEN and that works for me. Other people may need less. Be patient and give the product a chance to work.

RZ20-2100-RT premium Cut-Off Kit
Great kit. Great tool. The only difficulty I've had is when using the guide for cutting circles. No matter how tight you get the unit attached the circle never comes out perfectly. There's play in the unit & once you arrive back to where you started the cut is off 1/4" to 3/8". I've tried it on different materials, thicknesses & rotation speed while attempting to cut the circle. Doesn't make a difference. I spoke with friends that have the same guide & tool. And they tell me they thought it was them that were off but hearing what I have told them they to agree. It's definately the design of the guide. It's loose & not accurate.All in all the tools is awesome. The case is great for keeping things organized & clean. I'd recommend it to my friends & the guys I spoke about above, again agree.

I expected better
I purchased this vacuum at a lower price from a shopping network after reading glowing reviews. Frankly, it's kind of a bummer. The dust cup does not seal well and dust flies everywhere when I remove it to dump it. The hose frequently unseats itself from the suction tube, usually when it's least expected. My over all opinion is that it's cheaply built. Yes, it has great suction when it doesn't come apart. I've gone through several vacuums (bagged and bagless) since my trusty old Eureka Boss bagged upright finally bit the dust (pun intended). I've leaned there's no such thing as a dust-free bagless vacuum, at any price, because the user still has to empty the dust cup and there's easy way to do that without re-circulating dust. So, I'm back to a bagged Hoover Windtunnel that's much lighter weight than a Eureka Boss. Yes, I bought it from Amazon. I'll review it after several uses. If it works as well and lasts as long as that old Eureka, I'll be a happy camper.

A superb controller
I really feel Microsoft has done a great job with this pad. After the original XBox controller that felt like it was made backwards this one feels great. The buttons are placed right and it fits well in your hands. Generally I would say it's a toss up between the PS3 and 360 control. They both do the job right. The trigger buttons feel placed well and even the analog sticks are in a good place. This paddle also gets excellent range without loosing it's signal. My only qualm is personal. My experience after playing long hours is that right hand gets a little tight from gripping the control pad. I am sure most people feel just fine gripping this pad.

Resisting the compulsion to read these books is futile
I have read the entire series from start to end of STRONGHOLD RISING. I am hooked by the characters and events. Such depth of detail and culture of the aliens involved is my cup of tea. Such complexity and sweeping panorama of settings and characters sucks the reader into that world in which one is reluctant to immerge! Unlike many readers who find this confusing, the cast of many characters and pov changes does not bother me. I find it involving. As a writer I appreciate the difficulty in keeping all this real, and consistant, and aaplaud this author for a job well done. One note to author. . if Kaid, Kusac and Carrie don't form a three way Leska link upon Kusac's return (if he returns), I will be severly disapponted!!!!! I eagerly await the next installment in this series. . . Ria

AFTER 20 YEARS, STEELY DAN IS STILL INNOVATIVE AND UNIQUE!
With this being the first new release since 1980's "Gaucho", Steely Dan have not missed a beat! Actually, Becker & Fagen are even more innovative in this release. "Almost Gothic" is so good its almost hypnotic in the smooth relaxing delivery as only Donald Fagen can sing it. "What a shame about me" is a unique song as the lyrics are as enticing as the music. "Negative Girl" shows an even deeper jazzier side that was prevalent in the Fagen solo albums. My favorite release on the album as most of the fans who have written reviews on this CD has to be "Jack Of Speed" as Steely Dan gets really, really FUNKY! Also, "West of Hollywood" brings back some of the classic Steely Dan flavor on a new track. THERE IS NOT ONE BAD SONG ON THIS CD! THIS CD IS UP THERE WITH "AJA"! This is a MUST HAVE for all Steely Dan fans. You will not be disappointed.

Buyer Beware!
While this is solid wood and the lines are as nice as in the photo, the fiinish is terrible. The color is a bright orange and the stain was applied poorly. The color is uneven and rough and unfinished-looking in parts. But that's not the worst part.. . .I'm accustomed to putting together lots of big heavy pieces of furniture --unassisted. Nothing has ever given me such a hard time, from a kitchen table, patio furniture, 6 ft. bookshelves, and even an air hockey table . . . Until now! None of the holes line up in this table properly, and I broke a piece of hardware trying to make one piece fit. You can't even redrill your own holes, because this table's holes come pre-threaded with metal inserts.Surely there are nicer tables for your money and aggravation.

The best flip flops ever!!!
I absolutely love these flops! I bought them last summer at this little shop on the beach because the sales lady said her mother swears by them. I have been having a lot of trouble with my feet and wearing flops was just torture. I went in to the store with the intention to maybe find a pair of Reefs flops that were comfortable enough to where during my vacation. I tried on the Sanuk ones and they felt like heaven!! I haven't worn any other flops since. I can wear them all day with no problem (no heel pain or arch pain). LOVE THEM!! I just bought a pair for my mother for mother's day and she loves them too! She said she wants to wear them all the time and has to force herself to wear other shoes. This from a woman who has 100's of shoes. I plan on ordering a few other colors for this summer.

pretty good
this book was interesting enough. i love jane austen. my two personal faves were pride and prejudice and emma. this was interesting, the plot was intriguing and everything. i just thought that way too much was going on throughout the book. it was event after event after event. it was definitely suspenseful. the end was satisfying enough. fanny is not the best of jane austen's heroines. my favorite character was sir thomas. he was cool. i enjoy reading books of this sort generally. fanny could have been more interesting. i don't get why she was so totally in love with edmund the whole time that he was in love with mary crawford. it is a good read if you have time. it took me a month or so to read it because i had to read in the few spare moments i have aside from school reading and other work. i do recommend it to people who enjoy jane austen and those who are willing to take a good chunk of time out of their day to read.

Irritating Zig-Zags
I like the writing in this book. I like the characters in it. It took me to a different time and place. The characters are rich and complex. I cannot, however, recommend this book. It has many sub-stories within its main storyline. Many of them are never resolved. They just fade away. The book zig-zags all of the place. I finished four-fifths of the book and gave up. I got tired of twists and turns that ended nowhere.

This book calmed me down!
I was very excited to get my Hyster Sister Guide Book. I read this book in 3 days. I thought it was very well written. It made me laugh. It made me cry. Although not a medical book, I enjoyed reading other ladies opinions and experiences. I am having my hysterectomy this month and I learned alot from this book and got to smile alot reading it. I did get alot of my questions and fears answered due to others experiences. I would hightly recommend this book to a "lady in waiting" and will pass it on to the next friend I know that has to have a hysterectomy!! Although I'm still not looking forward to being a "punctured princess" I have calmed down from all my fears of the surgery due to this book.Thanks alot girls!!

2nd hand headache
I received this router from family member after they didn't need it anymore. We had a wired house that never had issues. After installing this router, with CD mind you, it was setup, and I secured the internet connection as per an agreed upon vote in the house.At first, the dis-connects were not much often. Around once an hour, un-plug and plug back in. Reset. That was 1 wired connection, and 1 wireless connection. Recently though, I have added the Wii and PS3 wireless connection. Now. The disconnects are every 10-20 minutes...These disconnects are not JUST internet. Its like the Router has crashed internally. I can't access the control panel, the network, or internet... I am seriously ready to take the thing to a wall. I am, also, very disappointed in LinkSYS. I thought they were better quality then this. I will not be buying LinkSYS in the future. Neither do I recommend it to anyone else.

Didn't Like it...
I love fantasy/romance/adventure type novels and I was excited to find a book about the mythical creatures called Selkies, who are a race of beings who (when wearing there special skins) become seals. This book was slow. I felt like I was struggling through the whole novel to find something I liked. The characters all felt like dead weights to me. They were boring and I couldn't form any emotional connections to any of them. When I had about 75 pages left I ended up skimming to the end to see what happened to the characters. I don't know why, but this book just didn't do it for me. I couldn't get into it at all. I am a big fan of romance/fantasy type novels too so I thought this book would be great. I'm not sure what type of person this book will appeal to, but most of the other reviews are positive so it seems I am the odd one out here! :) Anyways, I wouldn't reccomend it, but if you want, go get a copy at your local library.

Very sturdy leg set
The legs and shelf came in 2 packages, each wrapped separately with plastic bands. That made them easy to carry. The carrier had taken good care of it so I had no problem handling them. The nothing was bent and the paint on them was good. Everything went together easily. I made my own workbench surface from MDF and plywood and used 2 2x8's as rails spanning the leg posts to give more support between the legs. The tops of the legs are not shown in the picture but each leg has a square piece of metal with 4 holes welded to the top of the leg to attach the workbench top. If you use something thinner than 2" as a workbench top, you will need to provide your own support between the legs. The lower shelf has metal rails provided and is offset to allow the bottom shelf to be inserted easily. This is a very sturdy set of legs. I am happy with it.

Trip Like I Do, High Roller, Keep Hope Alive
See those songs that make up the title of this review? Download those to see if you'll like this album. I'm a fan of Chemical Brothers, Prodigy, Fatboy Slim, and techno/trance in general.Now you're thinking, "That's weird, I just read a review that was practical, straight to the point, and completely lacking in useless emotion." I know. It's sad, isn't it. Review after review of "I loved it!" and "I hated it!" in too many words. Might as well just look at the overall rating.Like the album? Tell us what's good about it - and not the whole thing. Give us the best songs to start with. Don't like the album? Tell us what you do like so we know whether the opinion is relevent to us.Sorry about the lecture. Enjoy Trip Like I Do (and hopefully the rest of Vegas).

A must read for Asimov Fans
Allen does a wonderful job of expanding on Asimov's universe and upon ideas about robots and the Three Laws. Anyone who liked the Elijah Baley and R.Daneel Olivaw novels by Asimov should enjoy these very much. However it is a Spacer not an Earthman or Settler that is the main character behind the three books in this series. Like Baley he is a lawman and has to solve some interesting cases. The "No Law" Robot Caliban is in the background and is not really the central character, but does play a pivotal role in all three novels. It really gets into the relationship between the Spacer and Settler worlds as one civilization is in decline and the other just blooming. The other thing is that he presents a pretty good mystery into the science fiction realm and does it about a well as Asimov did. This is not an easy task. Allen has got me hooked now. I'll be looking for his other works including his Corellian Trilogy in the Star Wars universe. He definitely has talent.

... what happened?
Fans looking for the innocent pop stylings of Britney Spears will be severely jolted by her self-titled album. The romantic, upbeat, peppy and fun songs that we loved on "baby... one more time" and "oops! I did it again..." are missing. In their place are violent, choppy modern -- what? it's not rock, it's not pop, it's not rap. It's kind of a techno combination of all three. Britney rasps her voice (she'd better quit or risk permanently damaging her vocal chords) and plays around halfheartedly with forgettable lyrics. What happened?In addition, her works are getting progressively more raunchy. Mild profanity. Innuendo. Rebellion. And then there's the accompanyment. The CD itself is engraved with three obviously naked fairies. The back of the disk (and most of the insert) sports Britney in a barely-there ensemble at that at first glance makes you think she's topless.This is one fan who's decided to pull the plug. And unfortunately, this album makes it much easier than I thought.

NEVER Buy this!. Stops working after 1-2 years
I bought a HT700 two years ago and initially I liked it, played great. After 2 years it stoped playing all music CDs. Both mp3 and original audio CDs. Couple of months after that, it stopped playing 50% of blockbuster DVDs. I have a 5 year old $75 samsung player, that still plays great all kind of stuff. I don't think it's just the problem with this one panasonic system. It's all of Panasonic. It's just a piece of low quality stuff. They are just trying to sell to american market this piece of junk. Never buy any panasonic anymore unless you want keep buying every two years!!.- A disappointed customer

Now here is a good album!!
Where do I start? This album is great! A phenomanal opening song. If you want thrash, buy this album! If you like more melow songs, buy this album. An all around, must have CD. This album brought Metallicas first music video, One. The song and video are based on an early 30s novel Johnny Got His Gun. Probabally the best song on the album is Harvester of Sorrow. A metal song that no other band could ever quite duplicate. The song Frayed Ends of Sanity begins with an old Slave Chant that really puts feeling into the song. Another great song is Shortest Straw. A real thrash song thatll have your neck hurting for a month. Unfortunately it is not performed live very often. I dont usually give albums 5 star but this one DAMN WELL deserves it. This is a must have Metallica album. Get the CD, not the cassette. Its worth it. By far the best Maetllica album yet!

The ONLY PRODUCT that DELIVERS!
READ all the reviews - the tips are amazing - when I followed what other people wrote - I had an amazing successful experience. I have a HONDA ELEMENT (05) and I did EVERYTHING that was BLACK - and that means the entire lower part of the vehicle. It not only looks like NEW - but I can't stop looking at it. It has stayed on (now 2 months) - and it looks natural (not shiny). Please remember to TAKE YOUR TIME - I did one area a day - so that makes it easier to do an excellent job. A few times I had to go back over places when I saw small streaks - sometimes I used the larger foam throw away brushes. I even did my windshield wipers. I got so hooked on the look - that I couldn't stop. Clean well and let dry first. If you've got the patience - you'll have a beautiful look. PROMISE!

Twin Raised Pillowtop Aero Bed
I received my raised pillowtop twin aero bed October 28, five days after I placed my order. I had originally ordered this bed from another online distributor the end of August. Towards the end of September and October I received e-mails saying that the beds were on back order and it would be another 30 days! I was frustrated and cancelled my order. I then found the aero bed I wanted at Amazon.com. I ordered it and it was delivered within five days!! And it is $10 less expensive than the one I cancelled! I inflated the bed, left it up overnight and in the morning it was as solid as it was when I inflated it. It did not lose any air overnight. It's a wonderful bed and I am so pleased. Thank you so much for being so efficient and professional. I love my "Amazon" aero bed!Alexandra - Ohio

Did not work for us!!
These diapers were absolutely awful for us. I had tried the Huggies supreme diapers and was happy with the way they held in BM's so we ordered the snug and dry, kind of by accident. We did not realize that there were two different kinds of Huggies diapers. So annoying that they do this. Why not just make the supreme diaper affordable for all? Any how, my son would wake up wet EVERY MORNING. These wouldn't hold his urine. Not only that, but even if he wet in it once they had a foul smell to them. We had to get rid of these diapers ASAP. Going back to Pampers. Just not a fan of Huggies:(

Peter Allen's best album
This is Peter Allen's best album, although it has to be said that it is the least representative of what he was like on stage. On stage he was irrepressible and buoyant. Here the production is quiet, toned-down, low-key. But he never bettered the songwriting here, which is deeply personal, witty, unique, and sometimes sardonic. "Continental American" is a gorgeous lookback at his youthful club days. "Pretty Pretty" is a biting look at a queen who finds himself growing older and consequently no longer the belle of the ball. (In my mind, I can hear Dietrich tackling either of them, and doing a splendid job.) The second version of "Just A Gigolo" features the legendary Francis Faye singing in her trademark off-key manner. After this album, Peter began trying for a more commercial sound and the songwriting became less personal. Here he seems to trust himself more, and not worry about chart positions and album sales. BUY IT and enjoy!

I borrowed this CD to find out what all the hype is about. You know what, it's just HYPE! If I could, I would rate this CD -5 stars. I never want to hear the word yeah again. It's a shame one word can be made into a song. Maybe Usher and Ashanti have discovered that people will buy songs based on one word. It's YEAH for Usher and BABY for Ashanti. Someone especially his best friend and mother should tell him he's not Michael Jackson, one is enough. I know it's a great compliment to someone to have admiration for them enough to do an impression, but Usher has taken it too far. We know he can "copy" dance, but what can he do on his own? In the future, how would someone do an impression of Usher? Will it be a young man doing an impression of Usher doing an impression of Michael Jackson? He really needs to get his own style.

Many a late night spent I, trying to crack this nut. Three days, I wept to the heavens. Three days! Verily I say, much easier it would be to slog through a mire. Three days of three pages each. Who can conceive such thoughts as be penned on these mighty leaves?"Nay!", they cried, "`tis poetry!". "Poetry", I pondered in the silence of my heart. Prosody, perhaps, with flowering words entwined about playful constructs. Still the struggle raged on. But then with bitterness heavy upon my spirit, I lay the tome down with defeat. Rest, and maybe another day to take up the valiant attempt, but for now, tis not for the likes such as I.

A Lot of Watch for the Money
This is my first automatic watch, and surely not my last. I bought this watch last November here on Amazon.com. The Invicta 8926 replicates the look of the iconic Rolex Submariner at one hundredth the price. I've found it to be very accurate, staying within a minute of my cell phone over a span of one week. It's been fairly durable, only showing faint scratches in the stainless steel case and band. The glass is still flawless.Criticisms are few. The date magnifier is weak and ever-so-slightly misaligned. The automatic movement makes junky rattling sounds in certain positions such as driving. The rotating bezel is very stiff and difficult to turn, I don't even bother. If you would use this function, get the coin-edge model which has a grippier texture.In summary, this watch is well worth it. A timeless heirloom to pass on for generations? Hardly. A well-made automatic for guilt-free everyday use? Absolutely.
