Michael Silverblatt, tell me it ain't so!
|
Mr. Silverblatt, please tell me you didn't read a script. Tell me that they made it sound gorgeous, that they threw fistfuls of cash at you. Because this movie only dragged two stars out of me because the cinematography wasn't crap. My girlfriend is raising a fuss: "No, ONE star!" The premise had so much going for it. Hell, it could have turned into a decent horror flick. Ah, nevermind--you're all going to watch it anyway and I haven't even really started here, so I'm gonna just wrap this up because I've already given this damn movie enough of my time. "One star," she says. You know what? Yeah, one star. (Bookworm's awesome, though. Keep on, Mr. Silverblatt!)

Absolutely boring!
|
The book is boring to the last degree. The first 100 pages are wasted with pointless scene settings and unimportant details. The characters are not believable. Nor likeable either. The judge is so naive. He doesn't have the makings of a good likeable lead character. The answer to the "who did it" question is so obvious from the very beginning. The book really breaks some of the most defining characteristics of mystery novels, which is: don't make the answer to the "who did it" so predictable. This must be a puzzle that bewilders the reader to a facsinating degree. The reader should enjoy doing some wild predictions only to be proven wrong later in the book. That is what mystery/thriller novel should be all about. In this book we were robbed of that enjoyment. Damn it. Please don't wante your money and time on this worthless book.I wish I did not buy it.

Soul moving

Watching "I Am Sam" may make one cry. One cannot help but feel sorry for Sean Penn's character. The Beatles's tracks give it that extra emotion. This is one of the best movies made in 2001. It was written, directed, and produced with heavy heart and soul. Sean Penn's Oscar nominated performance as a mentally challenged father is his best of his career. He proves that he heavily researched his role before filming as do the crew. Michelle Pfeiffer performs at her best in years as a Penn's stressed lawyer. Seven-year-old Dakota Fanning makes a wonderful debut as Penn's daughter. One will not be disappointed after watching "I Am Sam". Some will leave influenced.

This is the worst god damned movied ever made. Vomitous. Hideous. Stupid. Revolting. Before you say "How can John Hubbard say this is the worst movie ever?", I want to assure you that I have seen "Car 54 Where Are You", "Wisdom", "Cabin Boy", "Dogtown", "Man's Best Friend", "Ishtar" and every other crappy movie that was amde since about 1980. This movie straight up sucks.: the editing, the plot, the dialogue, EVERYTHING. Serviceable actors like Jared Harris, Willem Dafoe, Michelle Forbes and Michael Parks should thank their lucky starts that, probably, nobody but me has seen this movie. I SERIOUSLY thought about burning down my house after seeing this crap stain of a film. The writer and director will hopefully leave Hollywood and go backto work at Burger King.

OMG! How terrible can a movie be?
|
The answer to that question can be found with this movie!I can't believe I actually purchased this. It's like something a group of middle-school kids slapped together with their dad's old 8mm camera.Sound quality is terrible only to be outdone by the picture quality! Why, oh why is this being sold on bluray?I'd like to review the movie on story and acting, but there wasn't any at all. Between each "actor's" lines there is a pause as if someone is having to read them before they say them. All very robotic and painful."Natalie? I have great news for you. Victoria's Secret wants you to be their Cover Girl Model!" Really? How inspired was the writing... That was the best line of the whole movie too.The acting (acting?) was non-existent. It was like they were actually trying to create the worst movie of all time.Avoid this thing... If you must watch it, please let me know and I will sell you my copy - cheap.

Awesome

Ive been a PM5K for around 3 years now, after hearing them on the Ozzfest live CD released in 97. Finding this album was a bitch but I finally got it early last year. It only occured to be now to write a review after buying the new album recently and being slightly underwhelmed. I thought "Where's the originality? Where's the stuff that made them so cool before gone?"Then, last night, I saw them live playing with Pantera.Oh my God. I was so blown away, I appreciate the new album a lot more now, but by no means as much as I love this album. The funk and drive of "Neckbone", "Tokyo Vigilante #1" and "Car Crash" are all amazing. I think I spent all of today chanting "Tokyo! Tokyo! " and annoying anyone around me.So if you became a fan as soon as TTSR came out, then at least check this out to see what a band in their prime sound(ed) like.

Buy this book for someone you love, no matter their age.
|
When I was a child in the '70s, money was tight for our family. I checked this book out of the library so many times, that the librarian in our small town bought me a copy. I still have it. Now, money is not so tight. I buy a copy for every child I know. It is my own small children's favorite book. They have their favorites (Spaghetti & Listen to the Mustn'ts) and can recite them by heart. I would like to thank Mr. Silverstein for bringing happiness to my childhood, as well as creating stories that lay the foundation for some of the the most beautiful moments I share with my children. The stories are silly (Dancing Pants), as well as thought-provoking (Colors). I recommend it to anyone, and everyone. Jennifer Lujano

This movie shows ballerinas, focusing on several who are attempting to become professional by obtaining scholarships to schools. These dancers are all growing up, some are young and some are adolescents. I thought this might have been the symbol for a coming new age, yet I see dance as more free. Ballet is hard work and it is very contained. I liked their physical exertion. I really liked the thought of having a stretching coach. The costumes were handmade and beautiful. I liked the little girl named Gaya. She had such expressiveness when she danced, so playful and happy. Her mother was so supportive and seemed happy. This is a documentary but it was entertaining.

Not as good as I had hoped.
|
This was the exact item I had been looking for and could not find in the stores where I was shopping. I read other people's reviews that said how much they loved it. Only one said they didn't. I couldn't wait to get it. Well the love quickly died. I had trouble with the ear pieces. One seem too big and the next size seem too small. I could hear people great, but they had trouble hearing me. They said I sounded far away. I let my wife use it and I listened to her and sure enough she didn't sound all that great. Major disappointment. Maybe it works for some people but not for me.

a big let down!
|
I was not at all impressed with this book. The carachters were too shallow. I never really felt like I was totally connecting with them. I absolutely could not stand Leslie, the heroin. She had no backbone to speak of, and Flint totally rode roughshod over her through the entire book. The book had a terrific story line and I even Liked Flint, but it just left me with no 'feeling' at all. This is the only book by Joan Hohl that I haven't liked. I'm normally a really big fan of hers. I've read several of her books. However, this book most certainly was not up to her usual standards. I would not recommend anyone waste their money on it. If you want to read a good Joan Hohl, then I suggest "Ever After" now that was an entertaining romance!

Wow, is this really horrible!

First of all, it is SLOW, very SLOW. I thought it was about 6 hours long - which gave me plenty of time to think. Did DaPalma think he was taking Chinatown and and L.A. Confidential and throwing them in a blender with a real-life hollywood mystery tacked on? Not a good move. This is as tedious as they come. H. Swank should be forced to return her two Oscars. Her over-the-top (unintentionally hillarious) performance makes Faye Dunaway in Mommie Dearest look subtle. Nobody else fares any better. I think they brought back Gloria Swanson to play Swank's mother! Save your time and money. Or put it on when you need a good long nap!

Sean is coooooool
|
I have loved this disc since it came out. My friend told me I should listen to the Beatles, the group that Sean's dad was in, to hear where Sean got his influences and I have to say something that a lot of people are thinking but not saying. Sean's music is better than the Beatles. I like the Beatles but I think that Sean is a better songwriter than his dad. "Mean Mr. Mustard" is a good song, but "Into the Sun" is better. I think that Ringo could sing better than Sean, but Sean's knowledge of hip-hop is something that could have made the Beatles a better group. The Beatles just don't have a groove. Their message, Peace, love. etc., was good. I think that Sean can take it further than them. He's kind of like Lenny Kravitz. Paul Mcartney said that all we need is love but Lenny said we should "Let Love Rule." I think that Lenny says it in a way that people can understand. Lenny and Sean should do an album together where they rap cool songs.

Absolutely Horrible
|
I don't usually write too many negative reviews, much less write a review and give 1 star. But this book is more useful as starter paper for a fire. Shame on Webster's for publishing a book.Here is why it stinks. Whenever I would hear, think or find a word that I didn't know, I would go to this book to get the defintion. Sound reasonable enough? Almost every time, my words aren't even in here. It's like they skipped over so many important words in the English language so they would be able to fit this book down to less than 400 pages. This book would be better for a non-English speaker who occasionally has to look up words such as 'locust', 'ledger', and the like. It's too basic. Don't get this book and expect to learn tough words, because if you are a native English speaker like I am, it's worth the extra money to buy a more expensive, 1,500 page comprehensive dictionary. Heed this review and save yourself money from buying this.

A Pain toUse
|
I have owned this product for several months now. I have to go through a stupid step to use it. I was having a really hard time getting connected to the Web after I hooked up this router. I finally figured out a fool-proof way. I have to turn on my laptop and let it boot up. Then I have to walk over to the router and unplug it on the back of the unit and wait about 30 seconds. I then plug it back in. After a minute or two of waiting, I then get my wireless connection to the Web. How dumb! I should have returned it, but waited too long (guess I was hoping for a miracle). If I buy another router, it won't be this brand.

Beware purchasing this unit.
|
I bought this unit about 2 months ago from Ultimate Electronics in Layton Utah. It was on sale and now I know why. As everybody has mentioned the remote sucks eggs big time!! One of the most frustrating remotes I have ever used. It works when it wants to. Another big problem is you'll be watching the DVD movie and it will decided to lock up. It happens to me on every movie we watch. I have to unload the disc and reload to finish the movie. I thought I just had a defective unit but based on all the comments on this site, it seems Samsung built these flaws in by design. Shame on you Samsung. I will never by another Samsung product again. Since it can't be fixed I'm giving it away to my local church. Its better than tossing it.

The most boring book Grisham has ever written
|
What was John Grisham thinking when he wrote this book? I expect so much from his books. I have devoured every single book of his that I've read and *then* gone and seen the movie. Not on this one. I was so utterly disappointed. I don't understand why he wrote it and why it was so dull that I could never *get* past Chapter Three. Part of the problem for me was the intricate detail. I did *not* need to know every little detail of every characters life. I kept waiting for the book to pick up but after 70 someodd pages, I gave up and quit. And I do not quit very often. This is the *only* book of his that I have not finished. I hope he doesn't write another one like this.

What's 1 inch and the biggest thing on the market?
|
It's the Game Boy Player. Remember how the Super Nintendo played GB games. And then the N64 did. Well, forget those 2! N64 only played about 7 games. Now, the Cube can play well over 1,000! Picture playing Zelda on the big screen. It's like the good old days. Then also playing Golden Sun. Let the RPG titles roll in. Also, the younger ones can play Pokemon on it. You can connect you GBA to the GCN and use it as a controller, or use the GCN controller. This increases the GCN's library to about 1180 games. That wil lkeep you busy. With this baby, why bother in buying another system then GCN and GBA. One Word: Buy.

Compelling plot but disappointing style.
|
I was surprised that this is actually my first read by Ms Craft. I confess, I own another et.al book with her, but I have not read it. Obviously, I must have seen her picture on other covers but never bought her books.I usually find this type of plot, arranged marriages, interesting reading with charming characters. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for this. Ms. Craft seems to have too many other characters, who were certainly not charming and not engaging. Her main characters never develop beyond a "lack-luster" appeal. And I honestly almost "lost it" when they broke out into the FUNKY CHICKEN! [This is the part where I turn back to check out the copyright and printing dates. And it's actually the year 2000.]The best thing that I can say is that I kept reading - hoping that Maura and Josh would evolve or explode or ...something, ....anything!! It ended up being too long and very disappointing overall.

PP for Windows Very Poor as well!
|
I'm a long-time Franklin-Covey customer and began to migrate my planning to a Palm unit about 5 years ago. When PP Win XP came out, it promised "seemless" integration. I purchased, it worked. However, when PP migrated to Agilix Go-Binder the problems started and just kept coming. With ever new "build" (not an official "upgrade" but more-or-less a bug-fix like Microsoft's weekly updates) I would have to hard-reset my Palm. I finally got so sick of it, that I went back to the Palm Desktop software for my electronic planning. (I still keep a paper planner). Customer service and tech support were no help. My advice - don't bother. Stick with the Palm Desktop.(Obviously does not apply to Win CE or Win Mobile units moving data from Outlook.)Harry

When I found out Yung Wun was signed to Swizz Beatz label Full Surface, i couldn't wait for the album to hit stores. I've been waiting since May, and FINALLY it dropped.Yung Wun tore up the Ruff Ryder volume 2 album w/ 3 classic tracks on there. then droped some bars on "Some South S***" from Volume 3. After hearing all this, i heard his debut single " Tear it Up". the song was crazy! When i saw the album was finally droppin, i HAD to buy it. I did right after school. So i put the album into cd player and expected fire. SUCKS! hardly any swizz producing, only 4 bangers, at most. I tried to tell ya, tear it up, yung wun anthem, and cadillac doors are the only good tracks. save your money, dont buy it, download tear it up. HOLLA

Utterly Depressing.
|
I liked the first book a lot. I even liked book two to a degree. Martin has a real nack for getting you deeply attached to the characters and he does have a very complex storyline. (Almost too complex) The main reason why I've givin this book two stars is because books are supposed to be entertaining, not depressing. When you've been enthralled with a character for over 2,500 pages and just out of the blue he or she or them (Most likely all of them) continually get killed it's very depressing. I understand that this book is supposed to be real.(as in the hero's arn't unbeatable and god like) but you can't kill every... one of them.(Where's the hope?) I got to the point where I just wanted to rip the book in two and burn it. Maybe I'll buy the next one. We still have a character or 2 I like to kill and for another... and 900 some pages it should be just a hoot-n-nanny to watch another hero die.

Returned it.
|
Too big. Looked like a cleaning mess. Arrived after Christmas. Husband bought a little red Rival product from Target to put under the tree. Rice cooking is hard in Colorado. The Rival works really well for us. Looks good on the kitchen counter. Easy to clean. Took some trial and error but we get consistent rice at altitude now. Steamer basket does well with vegetables and shrimp while the rice is cooking.Pretty unhappy about what it cost to return the Sanyo. Not worth it unless you are cooking for a lot of people.

Important topic--but bad example
|
My wife and I liked the concept of a book about anger. However, we've pulled this book from our children's reading list. The reason is this. Sophie gets angry when her sister takes a toy from her. The mother supports the taking saying that it is Sophie's sister's turn. That's okay.But then what Sophie does to deal with her anger is "She runs!" Sophie runs away from home. "She runs and runs and runs until she can't run anymore." She runs into a forest.Unfortunately for us we don't live in a secluded, safe, forested area. We live in suburbs where there are cars moving about and people we don't know. So giving an example of a child running away from home doesn't work for us and we cannot recommend this book.

Her best yet....
|
Ashanti has finally proved herself with this album. First of all, the album title is all worth the hype and describes her fully. The album is full of mid-tempo grooves, hip-hop beats and a few ballads. However, the uptempos are Ashanti's trademark and 'Only U' has one of the tightest rifts in it since who knows when. Still Down and Focus are nice jams. 'Love Again' has one of the sickest beats in a while, should have an instrumental. 'Don't Let Them' and 'So HOt' are my fave jams on the cd though. they are nice smooth jams that Ashanti actually sounds nice on. Ive heard all of her joints and they have progressively gotten better and this is her gem right now. The one song she could have gone without is 'Turn it up', yeah she coulda let that one go. 'Don't leave me alone' sounds like somethin off MAry's Joint 'My Life' and thats saying alot. The songs stay with you and you can actually bear listening to her. Personal, powerful, and procative = Concrete Rose = Ashanti.

burnt motor
|
Bought about 9 mo. back. Used for a couple of days for a small drywall job. Stored the rest of thje time. Pulled out for use last week. I used it for about four days. The machine had a total of about 10 hrs. total use time. The motor suddenly burnt out. I took it apart to diagnose the cause and found nothing obvious. I took it to a pro for a diagnosis and was told what I already knew. Burnt out motor, no cause found. I will go back to my old Craftsman which is over 8 years old.

Hated It!
|
Wow, just awful. The writing is not terrible, and neither is the setup. But this book could have been so much more. The beginning tantalizes a glimpse into large questions: why are there so few planets with intelligent life? Are the Omegas malevolent or simply indifferent? Who created them and why?And, sadly, the payoff is never forthcoming. None of these questions are answered in more than fleeting, trivial terms.What is endlessly, monotonously explored is the target planet, whose inhabitants are identical to humans, to within an engineering approximation, in almost every aspect. What a monumental lack of imagination!I actually put this book in the recycling when I was finished. I am bewildered by the other positive reviews here. To each his own, I guess, and truth be told, I'm not a writer and respect anyone who can put together a book full of words. But yikes...

Just... stupid
|
I don't see whats so good about Nirvana. Kurt Cobain was a very amateur guitar player, and he set the standards for modern rock guitarists lack of talent today (80% power chords, rarely any solos). Dave Grohl was a good drummer, but he was very very overrated. John Bonhom from Zep would kick his buttox anyday. Their bass player was good yet very boring, he wasn't an exceptionally skilled bass player like Flea from RHCP or Mike Dirnt from GD. Their lyrics were meant to make you feel "depressed", but I think they were just stupid. "I think I'm dumb, I think I'm dumb, I think I'm dumb, I think I'm dumb" I mean come on Kurt, we get the point already. "Hello hello hello how low?" WTF is this guy smoking? How can you call that good lyrics. Okay, some of his stuff is a little funny and clever like in Lithium, but overall its mostly stupid. I think these guys are only legendary now because Kurt killed himself. I didn't think they were anything good then, and I dont think their good now.

A great tub to use and for the money!
|
What a lifesaver the hammock feature was for my newborn. It kept her safe in the little amount of water needed. My angel is now 7 months old and is using the toddler side and is able to sit up well in this. There is enough room and now plenty of water for her to play around in. It is a great feature to just turn the tub around from a semi- ying down to now sitting up. The tub is just right for the price. The only reasons I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the it didn't fit in my small double sink and the stopper does change colors but only after the water is super hot (don't worry tried it with my daughter out of it). As with anything rely on you testing the water no other device. No one else knows better than mom/dad.Check out my little girls picture of her sitting up all by herself playing with toys. It is titled "Having a blast in my tub!".

Terrible Tech Support on Linksys WPC54G
|
I recently has to upgrade WAP and card when my original Linksys that worked fine quit. Upgrade the WAP without problem. The Network Adapter is a completely different story. The LINKSYS WPC54G is a piece of JUNK. Technical support is useless. Seems they moved to some country where folks have only a limited understanding of the ENGLISH Language. The card worked once or twice after leaving it on for several hours. Don't know why it decided to work. Next day start up resulting in the card not working. Unload, reload the software to no avail. DO NOT BUY this if you are using a Dell Inspiron. Forget tech support they are just mimimum wage lackies from some unknown foreign country. Linksys seriously needs to consider bringing support jobs back to the U.S. or even UK.

Stick this in your Backpack

I first purchased and read this book while traveling in Thailand. I remember thinking it was a good read and I could connect with it due to my circumstances at the time. However, upon returning home I put it on the shelves and forgot about it - until the adverts for the movie began appearing on television. Then I thought I had better read it again to refresh my memory. I still liked the book and have recommended it to selected people. However, I believe its appeal will be greatest to those whose own adventures keep them connected to the book's theme. Those who stay home may be happier reading "Little Women." Alex Garland is obviously a young writer and this book is certainly not destined to be a classic. But his characters are interesting, especially the inscrutable Daffy Duck. His story line wavers in places, but I believe he does a credible job of tying it together. This is not a perfect book, but it is a fun one to read, especially while traveling.

Lacuna Coil doesnt have anything on Sirenia! (4.3 stars)
|
This album is very enjoyable and relaxing with some good heavier part thrown in. Which is how good Gothic Metal should sound. Not like the processed commercial sound that pathetic excuse for a Gothic Metal band Lacuna Coil has.This album is exactly what you would be looking for in a Gothic Metal band. Good, growly Black Metal vocals coming from a male, and a sweet symphonic angels voice coming from a beautiful female singer, along with some good guitar riffs and cool yet relaxing electronic, keyboard, and piano sounds. Theres even some violin play in the songs!!!The only thing bothering me about this album is the structure of all the songs go in the same pattern. Growly vocals, then clear. Or growly, clear, growly, clear. The songs become predictable in that vocal sense. But in every other aspect this album is a fine example of todays Gothic Metal. I strongly reccommend it.Suck it up Lacuna Coil. You lose.

Upbeat clean songs you will let your kids listen to.
|
This C.D. takes some of Disney's best songs and makes them into an upbeat disco sound.I teach using these songs. I use them in my P.E. class for running, jumping and performing sport skills. The students can sing with them while they jump rope or run around the gym. They love to dribble the ball while listening to Number 10 (Lion King.)The first song sets the tone for the C.D. with Donna Summer singing someday.I searched high and wide for songs suitable for elementary students that are clean and free from profanity. It is hard to find these type of songs. I enjoy using this C.D. hour after hour and find myself playing the songs for my own pleasure. It makes the time go faster for the student's as well. I would recomend this C.D. for any elementary teacher, pre-school teacher or family that would like Disney songs with a beat.

Leave it to Kevin to blow you away!!!
|
I truly enjoyed this book, as I have with every one of his novels. I spent the first half of the book reading like mad to find out what happened at Gorman Creek. Then I spent the last half trying to put all the pieces together to come up with the wrong bad guy yet again. I thought the best part of the book was characters. Some might say that a character that is rich would be hard to get to know and sympathize with. I thought that Kevin showed the right amount of tenderness with the main character to achieve this. Especially in scenes with her children, her mothering nature made her more touchable. I always enjoy Kevin's page turning writing ability. Many sleepless hours have been lost on Kevin's books. And I must say I wouldn't want any of them back! Buy This Book (and all the others you will be wishing you had)!

If you dont want a headache, dont buy this...

Paul Greengrass. I say no more. This guy should be locked up, put away, and throw the key away. He ruined, no, I say destroyed the Jason Bourne series by directing the second and third movie. What is with this guy, shaking the camera all over the place, until your head starts spinning around? I love Matt Damon, and think he is a great actor. Even the story plot for this movie was good, but the camera and photography, were an absolute shambles. Dont buy this movie. Borrow it from a friend instead, if you feel a need to get shook up and spun around. Better yet, go pay for a roller coaster ride instead. The director destroyed this movie, hands down, and after that, nothing else matters. I dont care how good that actors are, or how good the story line is, or the plot, but if you can't watch the movie with out feeling like you are sitting in an earthquake, nothing matters anymore.

Absolutely Horrible
|
I purchased this item as a gift for someone who wanted a memory foam pillow. It arrived to me is a clear plastic UNSEALED bag. WHAT? Where's the box? Where's the paperwork. It didn't say Serta anywhere (not on the bag, not on the pillow, NO WHERE), and it seemed very disturbing that it just came identically to how a used pillow would ship. I don't understand whats up with shipping it like that. But anyway, even if it did come in a retail box, I still would have returned it. It was absolutely horrible. It's not a brick like some say, its just a blob with no support whatsoever. The description says that one side is contoured... its not true, theres just ridges all over the one side of the pillow. For anyone thats ever used a contoured pillow before... this is by far not. For $50, you can do much better.I ended up having to run out and go to the mall and buy a pillow there as the gift. Bottle line: Don't buy it.

|
Why was Skal given the inspiration for a concept he just couldn't handle? Oh, the agony! The idea of a robotic body replacement syndrome in modern America is brilliant. So was Skal's idea of how to treat the topic-- a societal neurosis, like anorexia, a talk-show scandal. But the execution! Arrgghh! The therapist who helps the afflicted is not only unbelievable, his character is gratuitously disgusting. The novel works when it keeps us on the edge of being drawn into a technofetishist's fantasy... but suddenly, we're there, the robots are here, beep beep. The effect is stupid. Would have been better if Skal had just stayed in the now-world and made a mainstream novel instead of going bad SF on us. Shame on you, Skal! You should've spent an extra year on this novel, or let somebody else write it! In addition, Asimov's intorduction is insufferably vain, something like "I thought of this first in my short story _Segregationist_." Whatever, Isaac.

Dangerous!
|
I purchased this blanket for my nephew when he was only 6 months old. He loved it. He is now two and I have purchased 2 more of these blankets. They started to wear down quickly after washing and drying them. Each time he goes to bed at night he still searched out the blanket from when he was 6 months old. It is his favorite. The blankets wear away and become almost see through. However, there were no hanging strings. Recently when he woke up my sister said she went to get him, and he pointed to his neck. He looked at her and said "Uh Oh!" She noticed during the night, some blanket strings had wrapped around his neck and were very tight. I would caution anyone who purchases this blanket! Most kids have a favorite and this is not the one you want them to choose! There is another chenille by wamsutta that is better! It is also hard to take away a blanket that your kids really love.

Best Pregnancy Workout Ever!!!
|
I absolutely loved these pregnancy workout videos! They were easy to follow, yet they challenged me. They kept me in shape throughout my entire pregnancy. It was nice to not have to worry about what moves were safe to do during each trimester. I was able to rely on Lindsay's expertise to keep me in shape in a fun and safe way. The cardio and toning segments helped me gain weight in all the right places, while keeping my body toned. The yoga segments were relaxing and helped me maintain my flexibility. I recently had a baby and am now using the bootcamp workout to get back into shape. It is challenging and I think it will do the trick! I would highly recommend this workout series. They are very effective and are well worth the time and money. I will definitely be using them again during my next pregnancy.

Indigenous Live @ Pachyderm, just gives you a taste of how they perform live infront of you. Check them out. They are the best band ever! INDIGENOUS RULES BABY!

Rock and Roll's Album of the Year
|
Cheap Trick has been one of my favorite's for more than 25 years. Robin Zander's beguiling vocals have always been the hook. Nobody sings like this guy. Ever. Like many war-horse bands, they are oft criticized for a lack of recent material that compares with their early albums. Maybe that's because those early efforts were so damn good. In any case, Rockford shatters that assumption. Every track a classic. They performed at least six of the new songs when I saw them last summer, and they could have played them all. I have a new favorite song every time I hear "Rockford." As good as their best material ever. Inventive, clever, beautiful. And those vocals. Zander has lost little range after all these years, and uses what he has to greater effect. I've seen Robert Plant, Mick Jagger, Roger Daltrey and Steven Tyler. Zander is better. "Rockford" has him at him best.

What Could Possibily Go Wrong--oh really?? l:(
|
Family was such a great show to me...until THIS season came along, and god do I hate it! Without Cleveland, this show has gone downhill! The characters are getting less interesting and more hostile! Peter used to balance silliness and his bad nature but now he's just acting horrible! I'll tell you what I hate most about this season and new changes-Quagmire now hating Brian! Since when did Quagmire hate Brian?! Now the creators are having a silly character hate Brian for unfair reasons out of nowhere! What the hell?! "Jerome Is The New Black" started wounding my interest in Family Guy, but "Quagmire's Dad" f***ing killed it! That episode is the worst "Family Guy" episode ever! It went from just plain pointless to just awful! This is why I no longer watch new episodes of Family Guy, and I wish Family Guy would just get cancelled for good!

More hype than game
|
I'll leave the DRM arguments to the other people here. I've played the game now and gotten all the way to the last stage in a few hours. Honestly it was fun but I really can't see how you could re-play this game. The scenery might change but it's pretty much the same game. I've watched this game since it's inception and I've been nothing but excited. When I finally got to play it I was sort of disappointed. The biggest thing was that it was supposed to roll game play like Civ and Warcraft into one big universe. And it does but Spore's version is akin to buying the playschool version of Civ. Fun? Yeah for a bit. Honestly i wouldn't worry about the DRM 3 install limit, you won't be in this game long enough to need to reinstall it. You'll play it for a week... then put it on the shelf and back to WOW or Xbox.

Attractive. Sturdy. Quaint.

I needed a small kitchen table for a little nook area. Online, this looked perfect. After putting it together, it is bigger than I thought it would be - but I still love it! One word of caution, the table & chairs DO require construction. They get shipped in 4 or 5 boxes with lots of pieces and screws. You'll need a screw driver or drill. I put the chairs together myself (I'm 33 year old female that doesn't know much about construction) but I couldn't figure out the table. My boyfriend had to help me put the table together. It took about 8-10 hours total I think. Not super hard, but definitely time consuming. But it's worth it!

Goose Bumps!!!
|
I just happened to catch this on TBN a few minutes ago. I am a Christian, but think this dvd would be great for non-Christians, skeptics, etc. The facts are presented and you can decide for yourself what you believe. As a Christian though, I lost count how many times I got goose bumps! Seeing St. Paul's Grotto which I never knew existed, was incredible. They also showed the prison where Paul was imprisoned for two years before his execution. Also shown, was a painting supposedly painted by Luke! The palace of King Herod Antipas where Salome danced for him and asked for the head of John The Baptist is shown as well. I did not know these locations had been discovered. The film left me wanting to see more archaeological discoveries from the Bible. There are many more shown than I have mentioned. Roger Moore makes a great non-biased, friendly host for the program. Now I am going to buy the dvd to pass around to family and friends. Hope you find this review helpful.

Read This Review !!!

I live in Singapore, a place where Hindi movies can be bought with a snap. Yet i only watched 1. Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. A friend of mine whom i really hate, started talking about Hindi movies. And since i saw one, i used the names of the superstars to brag about it. And then i was 'forced' to watch DEVDAS. such a stupid name. Fine. Lets get this over with.My frown slowly turned into a smile as the first song blasted the halls of the living room. The show was the best i've seen. And the ending... i found it sadder than the TITANIC only because PARO was screaming 'DEVDAS' and then... Go see it.Honestly, its the only reason that i am now hunting for a movie better than it. It also brought great friends together.I rate it 4/5. Since i want to give it an honest and fair review. So far i have seen 20 over. None can still beat this.

Long time user of timers
|
Polder Triple Digital Timer - WhiteI agree with the some of the other reviews. The alarm is too soft and Polder is falsely advertising the product on their packaging by stating the following "Loud 60 sec. automatic alarm sounds when programmed time is reached." It is anything but loud. I owned a West Bend triple timer for 20 years and you could hear the alarm from another room. With the Polder, you can barely hear it standing next to it. If you had the radio on, you probably would not hear it. West Bend's new unit does not work like the previous one, otherwise, I would have purchased theirs. Also, the Polder unit display cannot be turned off and it wastes battery life. The West Bend display could be turned off. Looks to me like Polder didn't do much testing of the unit with prospective customers. The drawbacks are too obvious. West Bend made a mistake it changing a product that consumers were satisfied with.

Absolute waste of money.
|
I bought this for my wife as a surprise. The surprise was that it was a piece of junk. The first one we got, and yes it was new, had bent blades, a broken ring, and the screws were crooked. I figured with all these great reviews it was a fluke.The manufacturer sent us another one. So the first was a fluke? No. We had similar issues with the second one straight from the factory. This one was however useable so we figured we would at least try it. The results are pathetic. Slicing an apple as a test dummy we tried all blades. The french fry like blade makes a sliver so thin I cannot think of a use for it. The straight cutting blade would work decently, but the screws stick up and essentially mutilate the sliced object.If you wrote a positive review for this, you have never cooked before.If you buy this, you will write a review very similar to this one.

THE Step 1 Physiology review
|
This book is the best review for physiology on Step 1. That does not mean it is the most detailed, or that it has everything, but in terms of high-yield information that is managable in limited time, it takes the cake. It follows the format of Costanzo's larger text "Physiology" which is more intended for coursework, and which is also excellent. It is loaded with high-yield information and great diagrams. If you know it well, you will be well prepared for Step 1 (and physiology is a pretty big part of that exam.)Most physio topics are coverede very well. Some pathophysiology topics (e.g. cardiac arrhythmia) are not. In those cases, "Pathophysiology for the Boards and Wards" can be used as a supplement. It wil not be enough by itself for coursework. Suggestions for a course textbook are Costanzo's "Physiology" or "NMS Physiology", both of which are excellent. NMS has more detail, Costanzo is somewhat easier to read. But for Step 1 physiology studying, this book it it.

DO NOT READ
|
After reading and falling head over heels in love with Heaven, Texas I could not wait to read it's sequel. THIS BOOK IS HORRIBLE. The plot could have been a very sweet love story. BUT INSTEAD it was boring unbelievable and annoying. I hated Jane. and Her ramblings about being a freak and her child being a freak were stupid. I grew tired of her weird hang ups Not wanting t be naked and CAN WE DISCUSS the fact that it is hardly ever mentioned she is pregnant? Nor does she behave as though she is. Several times I actually forgot she was! SKIP THIS ONE!!! I didnt even finish it!

calphalon, not all it's cracked up to be
|
I have had this product a few weeeks now and am very unsatisfied. I needed new pots and pans and bought a set of circulon 2 but the frying pans were too small. So I researched and ordered this pan, 12 inch everyday pan by cephalon. The reviews were generally good and cephalon was one of the top recommended brands. Everything sticks to the pan and I expected a flatter pan. This one has rounded sides and seems more for vegetables. Maybe saute' would not stick. I have used it several times hoping it just needed to be seasoned, but still I just don't care for the pan. I just finished making pancakes, only fit 3 small ones in the pan and they stuck even with lots of Pam spray. Maybe I am spoiled with the circulon 2, which is thicker and heavier and doesn't stick. My husband has used the pan too and he seeems to like it and that is the only reason I didn't return it.

Piece of Junk!!!
|
I purchased the Disney Dream Sketcher for $45 for my daughter for Christmas. Immediately the screen kept freezing and I'd have to unscrew the battery doors to reset it. The batteries kept popping up inside their doors even though the doors were on tight. A tiny screw fell out without our noticing and the sketcher no longer worked. I wrote to Jazware to ask them to send me another tiny screw and they never replied. My daughter wanted to play it since she barely used it so I took back the one without a screw and exchanged it for a new one. I told the customer service at the store that the screen kept freezing so they're going to send it back to Jazware. If they would've sent me the screw, I wouldn't have taken it back and they wouldn't have had to eat the cost of it. The new one which I just bought, has already had the screen freeze. DON'T BUY THIS!!

Paid for NEW but received OLD junk.
|
I purchased this item to give as a gift. I purchased it NEW! However, when it arrived, it looked like a piece of old junk. There was not even any plastic at all around the DVD case. Obviously it was old and used. I can't believe that is what they sent me. Of course there are no apologies from Amazon. You are supposed to take up your time to contact them about it and then more of your time returning the item. This should have been a simple order to fill and they messed it up. This seems to be the new trend with Amazon. I really should stop shopping with them. As of late, every order is messed up in some way! Now I don't have the movie to give as a gift and I have to look forward to the hassle of returning this piece of junk.

Even the girls weren't hot
|
Firstly, allow me to say that I love the video game. That being established, I can go on to write the rest of this review. Granted, I'm probably not the most qualified person to be writing this as I actually fell asleep in the theatre . . . even with THX. I actually find histology more engaging than I found this movie, which is pretty amazing considering how damn boring histology is. The funny thing is that when I woke up, realizing the inappropriatness of drooling in a public place, I hadn't missed a thing. In a nutshell, James Bond has a buch of gadgets, he blows stuff up, drinks some martinis, has some sex and then saves the day. Actually, even the sex was bad. How can anyone do a sex scene without nudity? I mean without nudity, all you've really got is weird sounds. If this review helps one person to not watch this movie, I will feel satisfied. The only reason this movie didn't get one star was because that one star is reserved for THE worst movie ever made - Michael.

Entertaining
|
I read this book on a recent plane trip. I've been reading Maron's Deborah Knott books since the beginning of the series and this is one of the better ones. I don't like the ending, though. It seemed too easy. One of the charms of this series how Maron talks about Knott's large family. You're actually able to tell her 12 brothers apart! And there are a few poignant passages about Knott's mother, who died when she was a teenager. In fact, the only book in the series that I really didn't enjoy was one that didn't discuss her family. It is called Killer Market and it is about the North Carolina furniture market. Anyway, this is a good book. It's not high literature, but it's not trying to be. It was entertaining and it gave me something to do during a boring plane ride (and it's nice that we have boring plane rides, isn't it?).

It got me out of a jam.
|
I purchased the RoadMate 760 portable after a very favorable experience with the Hertz Never Lost system in Oregon. I live in California and have used it to find businesses while on a camping vacation and in nearby cities. On our anniversary, we were able to use it to pull up phone numbers for a movie theater and a restaurant where we checked showtimes and made a reservation. So far, my best experience happened after a concert in the Sierra Nevadas. The crowd was very large and traffic was stalled. We hadn't moved for about 45 minutes. I picked shortest route, surprised that it could find where I was at about 5,000 feet in elevation. It gave me an alternate route. It was a washboard dirt road, but I got home well before the rest of the crowd. It's been very accurate and my technophobe wife feels comfortable using it. Being able to move it from car to car with two college-age children is also a big plus. Each plans to use it on their next "Road Trip."

The Best Playstation Game (Period)
|
I love this game. (My wife hates it, because I can't stop playing it.) I have played at the Warrior level. I have played at the Deity level. It is great. I feel great when I play it. After playing for an evening, I can say that I've conquered vast empires and built world wonders, or created the greatest civilization on the planet and landed men on the moon! It has the best replay value of any game I've ever played and is by far the most intelligent game I have seen on the Playstation. There are many ways it could be improved, despite its greatness, and I am always looking to see if Activision will convert another of its PC Civ games to the Playstation format. If they came out with one for the Playstation 2, I would buy the Playstation 2 in a heartbeat. (Hint, hint.)

A fantastic dvd for beginning banjo players!
|
Murphy Henry does an outstanding job of teaching the banjo to beginners in this DVD. Her instructions are very clear and easy to follow. In about two months, I have learned numerous banjo techniques, licks and rolls, and four songs. Take my word for it, her method really works! I had never even strummed a banjo before buying one. I purchased this Murphy Henry DVD at the same time. I could not be more pleased with her teaching method and with my playing success in such a short period of time. I would recommend this DVD to any aspiring banjo player. She makes playing this fun instrument very simple for those of us with no musical background. If you have ever thought about taking up the banjo, don't wait any longer. Murphy Henry will have you playing great bluegrass tunes in no time.

Can't play video games
|
Everyone talks about how beautiful the graphics are on these tvs. Get an xbox with component output and you're in Halo Heaven. Try playing MVP Baseball or Top Spin on these pieces of junk. You'll find that the video and audio delay is too much to handle. Try swinging at a 95 MPH fastball and you'll find that the ball is in the catcher's mit before you even start to swing. Turns out that these digital displays require more video processing time. So they decide to delay the audio to match. Unfortunately all video gamers must now suffer from this. Any game that requires quick reaction time like stopping a moving line at a certain point on a bar is impossible. It's really sad that something this serious is often overlooked. I took my xbox to a circuit city and tried it on all the digital displays. They all had the same poor result. I try it on a cheap $200 tube tv and it's perfect. Not many people know about this, at least nobody I've talked to. So keep this delay in mind.

Save your money...this is garbage
|
Bought two of these hoses yesterday from Lowe's locally. Hooked them up and one of them had muliple bulges and a spraying leak. The second had multiple bulges that indicate to me that a leak is in the not-to-distant future. I took them back and got a refund. Since the only brand Lowe's has in stock are all Swan brand hoses, I bought a "Contractor Grade" 75 ft Swan hose. I figured I would see if it leaked before buying another. I hooked up the new hose and it was leaking at the distal fitting. That hose goes back to Lowe's tomorrow.Don't buy a Swan hose. I know they used to be good hoses because I had two that lasted for nearly 15 years without any problems. Whatever they are doing as of 2010 with their manufacturing process is simply designed to sell their products, not make something of quality. One hundred percent failure rate to me indicates major quality problems. Their hoses are garbage.

Great on African-American hair!
|
This set is great! I purchased it from Walmart, recently marked down to $19.99. I was skeptical at first. I have relaxed but thick African-American hair and wasn't sure if the "velvety" surface would interfere. It heated quickly, in a matter of minutes. And the fabric surface actually helped my hair adhere to the roller. The rollers were not too hot to handle. The metal, u-shaped clips are a little tricky and can push back the hair a bit when pushed on, but didn't really matter in the end. The results after 10 minutes were nice, big curls. It didn't leave my hair OVER curled, like a hot curler might do sometimes. Plus my hair didn't dry out and it maintained it's shine. This set is definitely a keeper!

Madden clearly superior
|
i have been a diehard madden fan since as long as i can remember. i then heard about espn nfl football. i decided to go rent it after hearing some excellent reviews. one word. terrible. the only things that were better about it than madden were the more realistic tackles and the excellent comentating. other than that it sucked. when running, you run on a fixed line. for example you can only run at a certain amount of degrees while in madden the running lines are infinite. o ya and another thing the charge up moves are gay. that is so stupid. in real football you arent running and all of a sudden you think, ok time to charge up for a power juke!!! so anywho, madden is clearly better.

Sour grapes.

Facts are facts. He was not convicted. I have not seen anything that said lying in a civil trial is a high crime. Posner should admit he hates Clinton. I do not like some of the things he has done. But there was no impeachable offense. The last impeachable offense was can the Iran-Contra Scandal. Why do you not focus your energy on that obvious breaking of the law. There is a lot of opinions presented as facts in this case. There is a lot of ignorance on political strategy in this book. It does not even make a good read on the toilet. More real facts less opinion. And face it you are mad because he was not ousted.

Sorry...
|
I'm sorry. I really wanted to like this album. I really wanted to like this band. No luck on either account. I found the songwriting... insipid. (Sorry!) They had the quality of a couple of relatively good college-age dudes hacking around on guitar and writing songs. They were "good", but that's all. Not great. "Mistress Snow and Mary Jane Green" successfully incorporates a number of different drug references, but it sounds like it was written by someone who never actually "did" drugs, they just heard about it secondhand. (As if I wrote a rap about keepin in real in da hood - NOT!) "Jupiter" was similar... sounded like the best effort of a hipster at SUNY-Plattsburg. The rest of the album was similarly uninspiring. If I had seen them live I wouldn't have bought the CD.

Whoa!
|
Really 4.5 stars. The only bad thing is that some of the pictures have looked blurry or soft (but you can just delete them and take them again.)and the LCD screen has looked fuzzy a few times.All the good stuff overshadows that, though. The camera has preformed very well in the inside(bright and dark rooms. Dark are excellent.), outside, and in dark outside scenes. I took 6 pictures the lunar eclipse last night and they are all crystal clear.It powers up very quickly and the menus are easy to navigate. The digital zoom is very useful in far away subjects. There is no delay if you focus first by pushing the 'shoot button' halfway down.I spent 3 months comparing and looking at digital cameras and I finally chose this one. I am extremely pleased. I hope you will choose this one too- you won't be dissapointed!

Eagerly Awaiting the Sequel
|
This was the first book I have read by either Eric Flint or K.D. Wentworth and I must say that I was hooked from the beginning. The concept seemed fresh to be, man meets alien conquerors and fails to defeat them. This does not conform to the normal style of military sci-fi that I read. There isn't a whole lot of action, there is some and it is well written. The real catch of the book though is the characters. The Jao are an extremely well thought out race of aliens. They are different enough to not be human but similar enough that they are can be reasoned with to a degree. The aliens have their own culture/society that dosn't always mesh well with human culture/society. Aille, the storys main character, grows and learns from his time on Earth and the people that he associates with. I highly recommend this book to any sci-fi fan and I can't wait till the sequel is released.One more thing, the space battle in the sun's photosphere is super cool.

Jesus and The Essenes
|
I have searched for many years for believable information about Jesus. This book answers many questions I have had. I am at peace now. I have read almost all of Dolores's books, and have enjoyed all of them . I find them very interesting. I believe them. I want to thank her for her many hours of work. I know a number of people who have seen our space ships. I personaly know 5 people who have veiwed space ship. Two was my Mother and brother-in-law. Another ship was veiwed by 3 men at the same time. Each of these men told me about it, at different times over the last 15 years. They are all good men, not misleading people. I would recommend an one of her books. I have gave many copys away to people who seemed to need answers. My mother has read Jesus and the Essenes at least 3 times.

Pure Trash
|
This movie is just overrated trash. It is boring, long, & there is really no point to it. I cannot see why people are giving it five stars & calling it one of the best ever. Mark "Marky Mark" Wahlberg is NOT a star, he cannot even act. Boogie Nights seems to drag on at times. There is very little of a plot to this terrible movie. Boogie Nights was like a porn movie a lot of times. Do not rent, buy, or even consider seeing this movie. Boogie Nights is just a waste of time and money. Don't even bother with it. NOT Recommended.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE!
|
How many movies can you say that about? I've seen it about 3 million times and never get tired of it. Tatum and Ryan O'Neil work so well together. The father and daughter thing works out perfectly. They are such a good team. This movie is thoroughly enjoyable. Tatum definitely deserved that Oscar. I haven't seen her in anything else. Where'd she go? She's great! This little comedy is a delight for the whole family.

A Must See For Anybody With Taste
|
I first saw Orphan(1987) in 1988 as a rental. It was recomended to me by a friend who honestly I thought had no taste in movies and had suggested many stinkers to me before. Well I guess even a broken clock is right twice a day, and he was right that day. I happened to be at the video store the other day and noticed this sitting in the video bargain bin for a buck. "All that came to mind was that was a good movie". After watching it again some fifteen years later I was wrong that was a great movie. An Acting Toure De Force starring Matthew Modine, Albert Finney, and Kevin Anderson and all are excellent. Perfectly directed by Alan Pakula, the same Director that directed All The President's Men, Sophies Choice and Klute. If you are a guy in search of a good movie you can't go wrong with Orphan's (1987). I can't believe this is not out on DVD release as of the writing of this comment. Don't those studio heads know what good films are.

No complaints about this product.
|
I was skeptical about ordering this seeing other reviews about the same product. I took my chances... My badge is still in transit to my house so I'm curious to see how it will fit but as of right now I'm completely satisfied. Its a well made product and seems like it will hold up just fine. I'll update this when I can after I receive my badge in a few days!**UPDATE** I received the badge. As other people said it does not fit perfect. It did require me to do a little cutting on the leather. I also cut the belt clip a little to make it fit better but this wasnt necessary. I'm just anal about my stuff being perfect. After my modifications I couldn't be happier. For $20 this is perfect.

Flash from the Past
|
I had watched a friend's copy of swasons 1 & 2, so when I could get this pretty inexpensively, I pounced. No problems at all with skipping/jumping/or anything, sound did tend to get loud or soft per DVD, but Oh Well...I gave it 4 stars because it doesn't have all the special features the individual seasons did. Season 1 had a SF regarding the color of his clothes. Don't remember details, though, that was 2-3 years ago. You'd think in a complete series collection they'd keep all the Features.Season 2 was intresting as he was a mentor to a Bounty Hunter wanna be, Oklahoma Boy Wright King. Then his character was dropped without a word. Too bad. Should've had some explanation.Season three's intro was different. I didn't care for his new hat, either. But, I'm not Steve McQueen.All around enjoyable. Get it for old times sake.

Could be a bit better.

This is a very nice "looking" case. It's bulky though and i find myself not using it due to that. in the holster, it's, quite frankly, unbearable. I've used the case alone before and it's fine like that, but the holster is a no go in most situations for me.You have to slide the phone down into the case and it's VERY snug. I have a set of silicone "Egrips" pads applied and it was extremely difficult to slide the phone into the case. Once in, it's fine, but yeesh! I do have to assume that without the Egrips on there, it'd be easier to push in, but really, it could use a tiny bit more space. or some elastic somewhere on the case or something. Forget using the larger battery with this one. The leather is nice and thick, but again, it won't stretch enough to use it with the egrips or larger battery affixed.I would give this case a B or B- overall. It'd be an A if it wasn't quite so snug and bulky.

The Worst Trimmer Ever
|
I had a Philips Norelco 20XL which served great for 10 years until the guard comb eventually broke. Bought this one and hoped it would as good. No way! This thing seems to be engineered by people who never used it themselves.1. The power switch and head release buttons are next to each other, so I kept pushing a wrong button.2. The comb guard is so flimsy that you are never sure if it is in right position or how long it will stay there. No surprise the tiny spring broke in a couple of uses.3. The hair length scale is on the wrong side!4. The power cord is so short that you cannot only use the trimmer cordless.5. IMHO, all-in-one thing is wrong if you cannot use the product for it primary function.Awful product, terrible engineering. Shame on Philips. I do not care of its low price. I would happily pay twice the price to get a decent one.

Brilliant
|
I tried to track this video for years. I had my own copy 'semi stolen' way back in 1980 in South Africa. I played it for the mother of one of my collegues. She was the Hotel pianist. She was so moved by the brilliance of the music she started to cry. She begged me to lend it to her which I did and never got back. I just couldn't bring myself to say anything because of the shear bliss this 60 year old lady was in. Back in the UK I tracked down another copy from a freind in Wales. I took it to Liberia with me in 1987 and lent it to a musician freind... same thing happened. If I had a dirt load of money I would buy this for everyone I know. Complete magic. Now all I need is it to be reproduced in PAL or DVD. BUY BUY BUY

Great for my ear, bad for theirs, was over before it started.

H700; Great sound and seemed to transmit well. Easy to use with the on/off mic boom. Everyone I spoke with on land or cell said I sounded like I was in a box. Even outside the car. Noise cancellation was great. Seemed to help eliminate the non duplex conversation which occurs with so many Bluetooths that I have had. Unit did not last very long. A couple months at most. Will not purchase any more Motorola Bluetooths. They just do not provide return on the investment. Cheap should have more value.

This is a great way for kids to see what us grown ups have done to ourselves in the last decade! Now they too can be stripped of their clothing, dignity and possessions - all in the comfort of home! And it's so convenient to be able to train our little ones for life in our Free Society. I mean how amazing is it that we no longer have to endure weeks of pent up anxiety before we travel or go the mall, school, the ballgame or church, worried about what will greet us at everyday events? Now we can so easily familiarize our children with Security Theater and the untrained, unprofessional GED drop-outs who somehow make-up these ragtag "security" forces. What a relief! I'm so glad I never again have to worry about how to explain to the kids why they have to be searched without probable cause everywhere they go. I will just hand them this fantastic toy. Perfect! Thanks Playmobil!!!

Worthless
|
Brand new out of the package, my first cut on plywood was horrible. I've had better cuts with dull framing blades. So I took it off and put a brand new Freud Diablo 24 tooth on to see if it would do better. The 24 tooth Freud cut the plywood extremely smooth with no effort, whereas this DeWalt tended to bind and load up while producing unacceptable levels of tearout. Difference was night and day.Both blades brand new. Both bought from Amazon. Both cost the same within pennies. I purchased this believing the 90 tooth format would yield smoother cuts in plywood (its a paneling blade). Wrong. The Freud blade is carbide thin kerf, whereas this DeWalt is probably stamped steel. Theres no comparison. Don't make the same mistake I did... thisFreud D0624X Diablo 6-1/2-Inch 24 Tooth ATB Framing Saw Blade with 5/8-Inch Arboris the way to go.One cut and this blade is going into the trash.

An enjoyable read!
|
In My Father�s House was a very enjoyable read. Oscie Mason is a headstrong young girl growing up around the time of the American Civil War. She lives in Manassas, Virginia. Her father has died and her mother is remarrying. Her new stepfather, Will McLean, and Oscie are constantly at battle. With the tension growing between the South and the North, this novel brings in a historical aspect to an exciting and gripping story. The characters are developed well, so the reader is drawn into the plot. I felt like I could relate with the characters. There are also personal conflicts as the characters struggle with themselves, what is right, and romance. A slave named Mary Ann causes many problems in the household, and Oscie is determined to get rid of her any way possible. With the oncoming war, Will McLean wants to move his family away from danger. They move to a quiet town called Appottomax. I found this book very pleasing and hard to put down!

A plodding journey through a formulaic plot.
|
The plot and premise were interesting and they probably made a great magazine article, which is where the author started his 'journey.' He should have stayed there. The author uses map and travel metaphors over and over again in this tale. We are on a journey. He is charting territory. He is trying to fill in the blank areas. He is Columbus. He is Humboldt. He is Fremont. He is tired and boring. The analogies become predictable and tedious to the point where they feel contrived and formulaic. Every chapter followed the same cartographic format. Why the predictable repetition? Lack of imagination perhaps. Perhaps this is what comes naturally when you try to stretch a thin magazine article into a novel.

It fell apart!!!!!
|
I have used Norelco products for 30 years. I bought the 8894XL primarily for its long battery life (I travel internationally for weeks at a time). On one hand, this gave the best shave ever. BUT, ON THE OTHER HAND. . . . . After less than three weeks of use, it fell apart. Literally. The head assembly fell out of the body and could not be put back together. Of course, I was in Asia with more than a week left on my trip. So I bought another 8894XL at the duty-free store; it was much more expensive than from Amazon, but maybe the Philipshave version will last longer. Upon my return, I called Norelco customer service; but that is another story. . . Clearly, from my experience (and the experiences of others who have written reviews), Norelco has major quality control issues. For a shaver that lists for 320USD, this is ridiculous. And their customer relations are equally problematic.

WORST EVER! Only Toasts on ONE SIDE!! WORTHLESS for TOAST!!!!!
|
THE WORST! IT ONLY TOASTS ON ONE SIDE! WORTHLESS for a toaster! This is perhaps the WORST Toaster Oven I've ever had or seen in my life. Delonghi boasts that it can toast 8 slices of toast at a time, but what they fail to tell you (and it's even in the instruction booklet!!), is IT ONLY TOASTS ON ONE SIDE!!! The racks don't pull out, and there is very little space between them, so it's nearly impossible to get the toast out to turn it over and toast the other side!! It's a total waste of electricity and time!! MY SISTER HATES IT AND WE ARE TRYING TO GET A REFUND NOW!!!!! I wouldn't give you 10 cents for it. UNFORTUNATELY, THERE IS NO OPTION FOR ZERO OR NEGATIVE STARS OR I WOULD HAVE SELECTED IT!

This toy is awesome! Kid and parents both agree
|
I couldn't believe how cheap this was, compared to what it was suppose to be. I have 3 children (10, 4, 3) and watch a 10month old as well. When it rains, I pull this toy out fast. They can have organized "exercise" play, and have fun doing it! If you have problems with setting the sensitivy and volume I also agree it go to the website. IT answered all questions we had. If you have toddlers you know a toy has to be practically indestructable to survive. This one really is. it was been stepped on, dropped and drop kicked. My kids make their own games up to play with it and have a blast. Got it last Christmas, and haven't had to replace the batteries even though they use it weekly to daily. (I LOVE that)I recommend putting it "up" when they don't want to play with it it keep it appealing. No complaints on this toy!

Well... Let me tell you what i thought about the songs.01. The Separation Of Church And Skate: 10/1002. The Irrationality Of Rationality: 9/1003. Franco Un-American: 9/1004. Idiots Are Taking Over: 8/1005. She's Nubs: 9/1006. Mattersville: 8/1007. Decom-posuer: 5/1008. Medio-Core: 5/1009. Anarchy Camp: 6/1010. American Errorist(I Hate Hate Haters): 8/1011. We Got Two Jealous Agains: 7/1012. 13 Stiches: 8/1013. Re-gaining Unconsciousness: 6/1014. Whoops, I OD'd: 7/10Well all i have to say as that the first 6 songs were pretty good but then 7,8,9 were kind of boring especially tracks 7 and 8. Then the rest of the songs were good but not as good as the first 6 songs on the cd. Overall the cd started out great, got kind of boring, then got a little better.Total: 7.5Although it had some videos on this cd which i enjoyed.So buy this cd if your into this band, but this cd isnt great but its got some pretty decent stuff and the videos are cool.

Did anyone notice that an $800 item dropped to $300 new inside of one year? This is not TiVo, folks. It is like it, but far from it. The biggest problem is the free program guide. It downloads info at some mysterious hour of the night, and the unit must be turned off to record it. Accidentally leave your unit on and you miss the program guide. Recording without the guide is as clunky as your first VCR. Plus, the guide only goes out about 72 hours. Ask it to record a weekly series and it freaks out when it cannot find the next scheduled program in the guide. It is a dvd player, but those run about 50 bucks these days. Save your money, buy a decent TiVo box and the lifetime license. I can't even get rid of this used unit on EBay.

2020 vs. 3020
|
I heard how terrific Tivo was so I decided I would purchase it. When I got to the store I asked the salesman to show me how it works. I'm pretty good technically but I found Tivo's interface to be frustrating so I decided not to get it. Later I heard about Replaytv so I went to. . . check it out. I found it to be way better than Tivo. The interface is much better (I also heard that Cable TV is suing Tivo for stealing their interface). Anyways I'm definately getting a Replay. My question is which would be better. The 2020 because (as I read here) it doesn't have copyright protection or the 3020. What is the difference between the 2.

West Gate of Europe is missing...

I own all of this MASTERPICES, SEAPRATLY & recently purchased set of 9( as a birthday gift, I Highly recommend to every one for this reason ! )EVERY aspect of these REAL MASTERPIECES are in HIGHEST LEVEL !

Pt 24/7 don't waste your time.
|
I would NOT recommend Billy Blanks PT 24/7. I did the whole program from start to finish for weeks on end and I did not lose a single pound!!!!! I was not over weight to begin with I only wanted to lose about ten ponds and tone up, it did not do this for me. I am very disappointed in this product. While Billy is very motivational, the product it's self also has many flaws. I am 5 foot even, the bands were too long and I could not put and real strain on the bands. Secondly the gloves that came with it were also entirely too big and slid off of my wrists. There is no way to adjust the bands or the gloves to your body's needs. There are also no instructions on how to properly connect the place the bands and the Velcro foot bands stuck to my carpet when I was trying to work out. The entire work out made me feel like I was a marionette. Don't waste your time or money.

Don't recommend

I have used this product more than 2 months by now. Before I bought this, I had read reviews to make a right choice. It looked me that this one would be a good choice. However, it didn't turn out as I expected. I run same course every day, but the calculation of steps and miles by this product varies every day. If deviation is around 5%, I would not complain. But, it is far worse than acceptable. For example, one round of my routine course should be about 4 miles. However, the calculation of this product fluctuates b/w 3 miles to 4.8 miles. Bottom line is if you want to have this kind of product for the peace of mind, then avoid this one and buy less expensive one. It is not worth at all.

Good, Clean Fun!

What a charming gem! This book is cute, witty, funny and all-around interesting. Perfect light reading for when you want to get a way from it all. Loved it!Set in Europe (Austria? Germany?), this book follows the hilarious mishaps of an unlikely American heir. When John Smart tours a dilapidated feudal castle, he buys it on the spot, only to find that he has gotten more than he bargained for. John, in fact, has an adorable squatter in the unused wing. As the story unfolds, he goes from indignation to acceptance, finally taking up the cause of the Countess for his own. Of course, what do you expect will happen when you throw a man and woman together in the same house for any period of time? Let's just say that Mr. Smart isn't as much of a confirmed bachelor as he thinks.

decent when working
|
I bought this juicer 2 month ago. used it for several time. When working, it does a good job with all sorts of fruits. But like another reviewer mentioned, because the mouth of the feed is large and also the design of the feed is directly above the motor, frequently pieces of fruits get spits back out. My eyes got hit a couple of time. Also the two speeds work pretty much the same in term of producing pulp in juice (like another reviewer mentioned, there was NO difference, what a waste of the two speed). Biggest travesty of all, the juicer stopped working after just 2 month. Tried to put in a medium juice apple in and the blade made some noise and then the motor just died. Tried to contact company about sending it back but never got arny response from Breville. Very disappoint and advise others against getting the juicer. particularly for close fo 250-300 dollars. Save your money!

You call that a book?
|
"Sé onr sverdar sitja hvass!"-may your swords stay sharp. That is the lamest book I ever read. Talk about characters dieing Ajihad was not supposed to die! And this book is much much worse then Eragon. A lot of this comprehendible espacilly of the flips from the point of view that take place (Eragon to Roran to Ajihad's daughter). Augh! that mess me up so mech. If I have on word to describe Eldest and Christopher Paolini it would be pitful. He just did a horrible job from the different languages to keeping the readers attention. Well, if you did't read it I suggest you don't read it. If you read I apologies.

hiya! i'm nicole! i really love pikachu even though i'm not much of a pokemon fan. i don't own this but i'm seriously thinking about it. bcuz i also am interested in getting a furreal friends luv cub. which also, sounds just 2 adorable. i think the cutest thing i've read from reviews about pikachu is the cute crying when u ignore him. but the luv cub hugs u, and u can feed it a bottle, and it makes sounds like giggling, cooing, sniffing, hiccups, burps, etc. now if there is somebody who owns these items, could u please tell me which u would suggest? bcuz i'm thinking more on the luv cub, but i'm still thinking of poor little pikachu without me. i REALLY WANNA KNOW what to get! they both just sound SOOO cute! if u write a review answering me about this please say something like 'to nicole' or something. cuz if i get pikachu i hope i won't want a luv cub instead, or if i get a luv cub, i feel a little like i'm abandoning one of the cutest creatures ever!

WARNING!!!!--contains spoilers
|
So let me just say, I loved the Axis trilogy (even though Axis- is pompas and has a huge ego). This series was really good too, only it got a little weird. I mean incestual!!! Caleum and RiverStar???? Whoa, cousins i guess i can deal with but even I have to draw the line somewhere. Axis is still his old self! It's really annoying he's soo full of himself arg! Heaven forbid anyone but him save the world!! At least Faraday is back, i can't believe that she didn't tell Axis off I would have! Well at least now she's found someone else . . .Drago (what a twisted family) And i feel really bad for StarDrifter! He can't find anyone one to love (except Zenith- who betrays him for WolfStar- I kinda prefer the bad boy myself). The only other problem with this series are the names, i mean really Tree Friend, and StarMan ummm can we say corny! But a really excelent series that all sci fi readers should read.

Now there is another JW And Live album!

Check out the new one!Title: Johnny Winter: Live at The Fillmore East 10/3/70.This title will be released by Amazon on April 20, 2010.It's GREAT! Sound is VERY GOOD!.Only duplication of material from the original "And Live" is Good Morning Little School Girl.This is a must have. It's worth it just for It's My Own Fault!I was real skeptical thinking it's going to be a typical "And Live" band bootleg with not so good sound.Glad I took the chance. It's stunning. And... Sony Entertainment is involved so it's real legitimate. This is the lost treasure! I can't believe how under the radar this thing is. (I got it elsewhere already)http://www.amazon.com/Johnny-Winter-Live-Fillmore-East/dp/B003954IQU1. Guess I'll Go Away2. Good Morning Little School Girl3. Rock And Roll Hoochie Koo4. It's My Own Fault5. Highway 61 Revisited6. Mean Town Blues7. Rollin' And Tumblin'
