Daddy did good
Well I gave my husband a lot of slack for getting this toy. when I saw what he got I thought he had spent $20 (including shipping) on a glorified rattle. Well it came an it was an instant hit. My daughter played with this for 45 min. I am lucky if she play with a toy over 10 min. It is really neat that you can lock them together, or have them seperate. This toy is very durable, solid bright colors and will surely entertain you child. She is 7 months now and she still goes for this everyday. I think she will continue to enjoy it as she gets older. The price is a bit high if you figure in shipping. That is why i gave it a 4, but if I new how much my child would like this I would by it all over again.

Tony Bennett...er, Eric Clapton
I only hope this doesn't signify the end of his career. Any time an artist begins consistently collaborating with "friends", it signals the end of a career. Look at Santana. The guy can't make a solo album anymore. This is what happened to John Lee Hooker. Musically, this albums lacks the care Clapton used to give his music. He used to be a careful, calculated musician who knew how to rock. Just bear this in mind if you buy the album. You may want to enjoy this CD with a 6-pack of ensure while wearing your favorite pair of Depends. And a members only jacket. Clapton just doesn't know what he wants on this album. Blues? Jazz? Easy Listening? Ho-Down Appalachian Stomp? Hee Haw? Crooner?Eric, make up your mind. Then give us a cd worth a listen.

Beware ours lasted 8 months before packing up!
Initially we were very pleased with this coffee maker. Easy to use, looks good etc. After 7 months we started to have intermittent problems with the water pump. It would suddenly seem unable to send water through the k cups and out into the cup. Sometimes it worked and other times it didn't. Eventually it seemed to stop all together. I cleaned it thoroughly and descaled the machine but still it would not work. We thought that was it and that we had been landed with a dud unit. I did a bit of research and found that this issue crops up again and again in customer reviews. We were very disappointed especially when we could not locate our receipt! (we did not purchase this unit from Amazon). I left the unit a couple of days them decided to try it one more time before I threw it out and hey presto it worked! Wait for it, for another 4 weeks and then again stopped again :-( I think this is a case of buyer beware and keep hold of that receipt!

The BEST BEST BEST BEST book in the world!!!!!!!!
William Redfield was the BEST actor in the WORLD!!!! And his book "Letters From an Actor" is one of my favorite books in the WORLD!!!! It is funny and fast-reading and I wish it would continue on forever. Anyone who is considering a career in the theatre should definitely read this book. Anyone who isn't considering a career in the theatre should definitely read this book. After you read this book, you feel like you know William Redfield. And everyone, John Gielgud, Richard Burton, etc., were correct when they said that William Redfield and Clem Fowler were the best Guildenstern and Rosencrantz. I recently bought the "Hamlet" DVD with William Redfield. It is one of my favorite movies. And William Redfield and Clem Fowler are the best. And the best parts are the parts with William Redfield, because William Redfield is the best actor in the world!!!!!!!!

Awesome
I think this is an awesome followup sophomore album. After listening to this I've realized that curse does not exist for this band. There is something about that mix of heavy metal and hip-hop that makes them so awesome. They have their own sound that you must hear because it is like no other. Chester screams and Mike raps out emotional lyrics that just help ease troubles of life. "Easier to Run" is very melodical and slow with some hard rock guitar and awesome drums, they achieve almost a punk rock sound in "Faint" from the fast tempo, and "Breaking the Habit" is very soft, with no heavy guitar but with a 10-piece orchestra. All of the lyrics are different from other people. They are like poetry. They can be interpreted any way you want. The DVD is an awesome added feature and you will understand the whole painter thing and art on the cover of the cd and the 40 page booklet. You will not regret buying this album.

Excellent comedy...
I used to think Chris Rock was just average and slightly funny. My impression of him has grown considerably and I was very much surprised how insighful and witty he really is. I found his material, though dated, ( O.J. for example ) to be very true and sadly profound. He takes old material and somehow manages to formulate it to make it contemporary and relevant and this is a very difficult and arduous task, especially when most people already heard O.J. jokes before. But that is his brilliance and no other does it quite as well. I honestly think this is one of the most insighful comedic dialogues regarding social contradiction, relationships, wealthyy vs. rich and politics. I think his strongest material is when he discusses slavery and affirmative action. He ties those two concepts together so well. His comedic timing is near flawless as well. Overall this is well worth a viewing.

10 Years of data transferred seamlessly!
My first Quicken product was Quicken 94. Then I upgraded to Quicken 98 without any problems. In the last 10 years I've had all sorts of stock and price information stored in Quicken, some of it entered daily. I got a little nervous when I read the bad reviews listed on this site. But you should not be nervous! All my data transferred instantly and Quicken 2004 works beautifully without any glitches. In my years of owning Quicken products I've never had to call customer support so it doesn't bother me that they charge by the minute. Most of these other Quicken users probably have problems with their operating systems and other glitches. The only time quicken didn't work right was when I had bugs in the system software. Purchase a couple of good utility programs and everything in your computer will run fine! Don't be afraid to buy this product.

DO NOT PURCHASE
WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER. My wife and I received this toaster oven as a wedding gift. It lasted only 2 months before breaking; the oven would not turn off after toasting, a HUGE fire hazard. We called DeLonghi and at first they refused to fix it! Only after multiple calls and explaining to a supervisor how much of a hazard it was, did they agree to repair the oven. Five months later, we still do not have our toaster oven back. We have left messages with no returned call. How long does it take to repair or replace a toaster over? (I bet it doesn't take Breville or Hamilton Beach 6 months!) DeLonghi customer service is rude, incompetent, and unhelpful. Their products are of POOR QUALITY and are UNSAFE. We would NEVER purchase any DeLonghi product again.

Awesome
Since i read this i have thrown all of my drawers and trousers out the window. I now have no clothes and act like the dude on the cover. I love to stand on my head. It hurts after awhile. Then I ice it down. While I am on my head, however, it is pretty cool. All of these people walk by and they are like "wooooaaaahh". It is pretty funny. Then they say something like "we should do that". It is definitely worth getting good at. I also like to pretend I am a space-man with upside-down eyes.

I wonder if there's a connection between this group and The Verve?
If there is I can understand why I really don't like this. It tries to sound like King's X, and I use the word tries. Most of the material is lame, and I wouldn't want to listen to it all the way through. Only 3 songs were good here. "Drive You Mild", "Penny Is Poison", and "Cattle". The weakest song on here was "Cup Of Tea" I feel that a big improvement would be if "Weird Al" Yankovic would do a parody of that song, and title it "Chicken Of The Sea"(in honor of tuna). The rest of this album I have no use for, and say that I'm in a generous mood tonight giving it 2 stars. I know that about a year after I first heard "Cup Of Tea" I heard of the group The Verve, and their loser of a hit "Bittersweet Symphony". I thought it was the same group only switching gears, and trying to become more pop than alternative. I would like to know if these 2 groups co-exist, or if they're both different. Anyone out there please fill me in.

Not just for young adults by any means...
OH MY GOSH. I will read probably 50 - 60 books this year. It is going to be tough to top this one. Oh yes, I have read the Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns is on my nightstand right now. I have read Water for Elephants...I have read Shadows of the Wind. All excellent. Any time a book can make you smile and snicker and then fill you with sadness or grief...anytime a book can stir emotions like this one did me...I rate it five stars with no problem. This book takes place in Nazi Germany during the war. Rudy and Liesel are the young protaganists. Nuff said...buy this book...it will blow you away. BTW...I am a 59 year old male reader. Enjoy.

Wonderful..bought a second!
I have several zabutons. IMHO, this one from Hugger Mugger is superior to the others I purchased (which were cheaper). I got my first Hugger Mugger zabuton 4 years ago. I have used it with meditation pillow on top, folded in in half as a prop too many times to count, used it as a pad for shoulderstand as well as other non-yoga purposes. It is still in very good condition! The loft is good and it is as supportive today as it was 4 years ago. I finally gave away my other (cheaper) zabutons and got another Hugger Mugger. It was worth the extra money. It doesn't hurt that it has a lifetime warranty! BTW, on two occasions, I was able to go to the Hugger Mugger warehouse. I was able to see many of their products. They are all excellent!

Ancient
If you have Charter Cable in the Dallas market they will still give one of these to you, if you can believe that. I think they came out in 2002! Eight years later, same box. It's slow and laggy. Doesn't even have a skip forward button (has a "fast forward" but no skip). The skip back button is the least responsive on the remote and that's saying something because these things never do what you want. Even just to change channels it's like you have to pick a fight with your DVR.Actually I don't have any of this trouble, thank God. My mom does. She has three of these ancient DVRs and pays dearly for them. I've tried to get her to switch to a sat provider but my grandmother lives with her and has enough trouble figuring out a plain old remote from a cable ready TV with no DVR. I don't think she'd ever understand a satellite box. So my mom is stuck with Charter and their outrageously old equipment.So don't buy one. God. Get a TIVO or similar. It may be more expensive but it will work.

The best of the best.
I am teaching in college since 25 years. We always used Macintosh.At home, I have a iMac. I used Office 2001,which is a very good product. Then I had to install APPLE X, then Ibought Microsoft Office X (including Word X) for teacher. I am filled. Ittook only 30 minutes to install it. Immediately I felt comfortable.There are many improvements. And the items that I used more werepreserved, and improved. Word is very pretty, powerful, more powerful,more quickly. All my documents of Office 2001 opened such as theywere. I did not lose any data. And the connection with the Web is the best to. I recommend it to my colleagues at work.Thank you Microsoft.

The Dividend of All Concerns
THUMBS UP FOR SO-CALLED "POLITICAL CORRECTNESS"I hate people that go around complaining about "political correctness". I do it myself some, but I'm not a rightwing nut. It ain't all like the Drudge Report and Hannity etc. tell ya monkey. 6 stars for THE SUM OF ALL FEARS for it's "POLITICAL CORRECTNESS". Ohhh how dare a movie be critical of the military industrial complex. _OOOOOH_MY_GOD_ Israel looks not like a bunch of saints in a movie. What??? It didn't make Muslims look evil?!! The outrage. Anyway, at least this Tom Clancy movie has something going for it: it annoyed wingnuts.

Great cast. Weak story. Weaker Animation.
Lucy Lawless is a great talent for genre films. In general, there is some great voice direction and acting. The music composer did a great job with moving the film forward. It is too bad that these voices and music are giving life to a story with no "center". The subtext has a good morality play for our times, but this is lost among the mess. The saddest part is the lack of quality control on the animation. In one scene some detectives looked like they had no waists. My kids do better (they are young animators themselves). They consistently got things as basic as Superman's uniform wrong. A travesty. Hopefully they didn't spend much money on this...because there are soooo many more worthy projects.Justice League - The New Frontier (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Wonderful...Fantastic...I Loved it!
This is my favorite auto-biography in the whole world bar none. I savored every delightful page. I would make this required reading at every music school in the country if I had my way. It is as honest and no-holds-barred as any book I have ever read. He tells all about himself and about George and Ira Gershwin, Harrey Warren, etc. etc. I live for the day Feinstein releases his *next* book. (He says in this book that another book will be forthcoming). I should mention that I sing and play piano myself (just for fun, not profit) and this probably made this book much more meaningful to me than it might to a normal lay reader. Having said that, I consider this book a classic that will be savored and enjoyed for many centuries to come. I bought every CD Michael ever made after reading this book.

TRUST ME READ THIS!!!!!!!
Listen I know a lot about electric scooters and dirtbikes. About 6 months ago I purchased the Honda minimoto maxxi it was great and all until it broke. Then I got the minimoto go kart that piece of junk broke also. I took it back to Toys R Us and they said that the go kart had motor trouble. The circuit breaker kept popping because of too much power being released into the motor. Soon after that I took my minimoto maxxi in and it had the same problem. Trust me dont listen to other reviews. My cousin has this thing and its not worth it. I mean think about it would i write all this if i was lying? Go buy the razor dirtbike its called the razor MX500 dirtbike and (...)its 500 watts 36 volts PADDED SEATS wich the minimoto dirtbike has plastic seats, and the razor MX500 dirtbike goes up to 17 MPH NOT 15MPH like the Minimoton dirtbike. TRUST ME!!!!!!!!!

KC lights
First of all this set is very bright. and I couldnt resist it when I saw them for 75.00 and free shipping. what a deal !! these are so bright and produce a spot light beam. I mounted them on a Aries push bar on the front of my 05 Xterra. I 'm very happy . I looked at getting the hella's and PIAA but for the price I was sold on KC.the only problem I have so far is tring to adjust the lights to my perfection. at first they pointed at the ground 20ft in frount of me and now I have them pointing up at the trees. I guess good for coon hunting but, I still have some adjusting to do.The kit provided everything that you need and was very easy to install. I did replace the rocker switch with one that would fit in my existing switch holders.the lights are built for a tank and I believe they can last 20 something years. but how many cars would that be?I'm still looking for some KC rock guard covers.buy them on sale the lights are worth it

Scratches your IPod screen - Beware!!!
After purchasing the Agent 18 Clickshield case for my new 4G 20g IPod, I needed a case that had a belt clip for when at the gym. After reading most all of the reviews here and on Apple.com, I felt confident that the Contour ISee would work well for me. So I received this case today. I take out the protective shield and after carefully trying to get it on the IPod, it ripped at the seam. I then tried to put the IPod in the case with the plastic shield wrapped around it the best I could. I did not get the IPod in the case as it was too tight and just not the right fit. End result? This little task caused a vertical scratch on my only one week old Ipod screen! My advice? Stay away from this lousy case. If you don't need a belt clip, the Agent 18 ClickShield (which I have) is very nice and clear and stylish. Now I likely will buy some cheesy neoprene case just for the gym use...

Buyer Beware
I bought these headphones about two weeks ago. They go back tomorrow.Pros: They are very comfortable and the sound is wonderful. Stereo really stands out.Cons:1. The battery charge function never did work. I left the unit on the charger for 3 days, well past the 16 hours recommended, and the battery pack never did take a charge.2. I used my own batteries for a while. It worked fine - for a little while. Once the cover of the left earpiece was removed to put in my own batteries, it wouldn't stay on. It would pop off at the most inopportune times. The last time sealed the deal. The piece fell behind my wall unit and I had to unload the entire unit to get it.3. Finally, the auto on/off feature failed. It would cut in/out every 2 seconds or so. This drove me nuts. Now the earphones are totally useless.One last thought. This is a very large system. You better have a lot of room.

Worst Luda Album
After Word of mouf, I couldnt wait for this cd to release. Word of mouf was the best album iv heard. Chicken N'Beer can't even be compared to luda's last joint. Stand up gets old quick . there aint no good beats or nuthin. "Diamond in the Back" is ok. I havent listened to the cd since I bought it. I'm waitin' for Red Light District to come out. Hopefully, Luda will come through on that. You wont miss out on anythng if ya dont buy this. If you havent already, get Word of Mouf. Thats money well spent. Chicken N' Beer is TRASH.

my personal experience
I have been a Scientologist for many years now. I have had parts of this book read to me by "concerned" relatives. Even if the thing this book brings up are true, which I have yet to be able to confirm any, I don't see the searing hatred justified. For example, the news about the GO's office having problems within it and Hubbard's ex-wife being in that office. So what? My life is far better off from Hubbard's works. What about the claim that people experienced in Scientology have gone through confessionals and are warning people that the point of the confessionals is to bribe people. Honestly, how could someone go through rigorous confessionals and publically issue crazy warnings like that? It doesn't make sense if you think about it. I could walk away from any or all of it any time I wish. True statement. I would not trade the wins I have had from Scientology for anything. True statement.

Poorly made, breaks easily, too many parts
At first glance, this seems like such a cute toy. The nesting houses give the impression that this toy will "pack away" into itself. However, once taken apart, there is no way to get all the figures, keys and houses back inside the main house. Next, all of the doors will pop off the houses within a couple hours of play. (Without even much effort to pull them off; my 12-month old took care of it herself.) It's not a clean "pop" either, part of the door hinges are now missing, so the doors won't stay on. The keys are useless for a toddler, if you can keep track of them at all. That leaves the parent having to jimmy open the doors using some sort of utensil whenever the keys go missing. Perhaps the most hilariously bad part of this toy is the "wolf", which everyone (kids and adults alike) calls "the fox". Because it looks exactly like a fox. Save your money!

Don't have a baby without it . . .
. . . Especially if you have a toddler, as well. I had two bouncie seats, both of which I got out again when our 2nd baby was born (and our 1st was 16 mos old). The older one kept sitting in the bouncie chairs and bent the seat part so much I couldn't put the new baby in it -- it was like she was standing up! So when I came across this chair that holds up to 40 lbs. I had to get it. The older baby sits in it all the time. I can tuck the straps away so quick for her and get them out again just as quick when I want to put the baby in it, I don't know what I would do without it! And it's so sturdy, I'm pretty sure it'll take me through the next baby, too!

better than hells pit but where did ICP go?
The clowns I know sing chicken huntin and Piggy Pie with some wicked sh*t mixed in like dead body man. Hells Pit was horrible. Not one track on that CD was tolerable. Now Ive been down for 8 years but I have to say that since they got rid of Mike Clark ICP isnt ICP anymore. It's either the producing or J seems to have let the weed get to his head and thinks everything sounds good. This CD is an improvement over hells pit but not much. Atleast they are back to thier comedic ways but its still not to the likes of Riddlebox or Milenko. Only two songs are bangin and the rest are just ok. The only terrible song on the CD is "We Like It Like That" because thety repeat that saying every 5 seconds...literaly. The Best song on the cd is Rollin Over which is somewhat back to their roots. In my opinion, ICP needs Mike Clark back and needs to realize why we all became juggalos in the first place. Get back to your roots ICP!!!!!

Returned Zelco light 3 times-still bad
I bought the LED light and AC adapter in October of 2005. In June of 2006 I returned it because one of the two LEDs went out. Amazon warranty is only good for 30 days. Sent it to Zelco and they replaced it. A few months later the same thing happened and I again sent it to Zelco for replacement-they did. Then again! Just the other evening the "10 year" LED failed once more. Four times in two years! I give up. The reason I bought it in the first place was so I don't have to constantly change bulbs in the incandescent version. If you purchase this light be sure to save your receipt and set aside some postage!

Poor Quality, Overpriced, Over-Hyped Chinese Product.
This is a typical Chinese low-quality product. I would love it if it were of decent quality.This is the roughest blade hinge I have ever experienced. The blade grinds and balks when it is opened or closed. I don't believe I have ever felt such a rough knife hinge. It is even worse than a knife that has been dropped in sand. The blade is decent when new, but is poorly sharpened and dulls quickly, especially where it contacts a cutting board. The corkscrew does work smoothly and seems well-finished. They missed a good design opportunity on the corkscrew by not fitting a folding projection to make it a waiter's corkscrew. Nobody likes the brute-force corkscrews, you know. Many people can't even use them. Leverage is a wonderful thing.The only good thing I can say about this knife is that it is pretty until you use it. It would make a nice gift for someone you knew would not use it, or know the difference.

Honestly the WORST SCI-FI Film I have EVER Seen!!
Bad story with parts and scenes and people that make no sense whatsoever. Bad script with lines that just lay there never going anywhere. Bad acting. Extremely bad visual effects. A cast of at least a dozen people, using cheap video effects that occasionally try to create the illusion of a hundred, very badly!!Altogether boring, pointless, cheap, inexpensive, and horrid!!The ONLY good thing about this movie is the shirtless Antonio Sabado Jr. (IF you're a gay male or straight female and he's your type). Otherwise, even if you can get this movie totally FREE on Netflix. Do NOT watch it. You will have wasted what seems like 3 hours of your life!Goodness it's bad. Really, very bad.

Buy this waffle iron if you want your waffles to stick to the grill
Do not buy this puppy. As you can see it has been around for a while. I made waffles according to the receipe in the instruction book. Put the shade setting on 3 as recommended, waited for the light to go green as recommended. Waffles stuck to grill!!!!! Nothing was mentioned about spraying the waffle iron grill as it should be non stick. The waffle maker also does not have a large surface area so get enough waffle for more than one serving.You cannot remove the waffle grill surface for cleaning. Not good. My old GE waffle iron has removable grills for easy cleaning when necessary.I have an old GE waffle maker that is still making great waffles. The surface area is large enough for making two waffles about 6in x 6in. Actual size since is about 6in x 12in.

Good thriller ...........But ?
I guess I didn't totally understand what the 2 and 1/2 run time was for ? I watched this film and yes, I found it sexy, and yes, I found it interesting? But was the long detailed journey of the girl that was missing really that necessary ? When in the end there really was no huge pay off to carry it out that long. The goth girl was the only really interesting character in the movie. But in the end you still didn't know a whole lot more about her than you did in the beginning? This is a interesting movie but please don't expect it to unravel some amazing conclusion. The film is darkly erotic and interesting well written in a detailed aspect but lacks depth. I would say rent this or download at best because this is truly a one or two time watcher at best. It Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezed the life out of me waiting for the payoff ! When in the end there was really know difference, just a sexy girl that was darkly disturbing in her own way.

Horrible Product
For the first time in what seems like forever, I went to my favorite department store. This particular foot bath was on clearance. Wanting a fun messaging foot bath for a long time, I decided to give this product a try. I got home from the store, quickly unwrapped my new foot bath and filled 'er up with water. My feet are in the bath as I'm writing this. The other reviewer is right when he/she says the water gets cold...and water splashes out of the tub. The tub feels cheap. The attachments are a joke. This whole product is a joke! It's best to save your money and/or splurge on a different brand foot bath. I am frantically trying to find my receipt so I can return this product, pronto!

Hilarious!
I love this movie. I had a hard time finding it, so thank you Amazon. Paul Rudd, as Peter Klaven, is adorable. Jamie Presly, as Denise, is a knock out, even with a horrible hairdo. John Favreau, as Barry-Denise' husband- is a laugh riot. Some of my favorite scenes are w/ Denise and Barry. All star cast was thoroughly entertaining. Loved Jane curtain and JK Simmons as Ma & Pa Klaven. Andy Samberg, as Robbie Klavin, is hilarious. Jason Segal was memorable in his role as Sidney. I loved the script and the actors were the perfect ingredients for their recipe making a comedy I believe will become a classic.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book
I finally stopped watching the Fox News Channel in 2004. I just couldn't take it anymore, I would listen to these people spouting off this ridiculous awful stuff and get so angry. Sometimes it seems like the world has gone crazy - can't people see what is really happening here? Do the people at the Fox News Channel think all Americans are stupid? Do people look at the Fox News Channel from other countries and think it means all Americans are like that? Franken's book was like a vindication. I laughed and laughed and got a huge kick out of it.One point remains clear - politicians and journalists and voters and even Amazon reviewers are human beings. Dig long and hard enough, and you can make anybody out to be an idiot or a liar or worse. (Some people can do this to themselves without any help from anyone.) As soon as people start slinging mud, it detracts from the issues. Most of us basically want the same things, like freedom and security, so let's focus on that.

Songs in A Minor -- A 'soul'searching delight
This woman can sing, and she can also play. She has a sultry seducting voice that just intices you to listen more, and more and more. She has complete talent 100%. Being a singer myself I find it hard to find a singer I can enjoy without the media corrupting him/her turning them into a sex symbol or however. But Alicia is the complete package. She knows how to sing using her soul, and her gut instinct, and it definetly is proven with her all of her songs. "Fallin", "Caged Bird" etc. They are all great. For anyone leaning towards buying this album. Please do because you won't be disappointed and the feeling you get from listening to the lyrics will last for a lifetime. Well done Alicia Keys.

great
its very quiet. it doesnt lag, actualy the software even speeds up the mouse's movements. range is good. i could type this from my bed because it allows me to zoom in and it works 6 feet away. i tested it up to 30 feet away and it still worked. the presets are awesome except the ones that are set up for websites, dont work with google chrome. other than that my only grudge would b the small size of the top extra buttons. ive already typed 44002 characters and still counting. the alarm can be useful. i have very keen hearing and if its late and theres not a sound in the house i can actualy hear the mouse transmittin the signal. my last mouse it was only audioable if u put the mouse to your ear. also the mouse is tinier than my microsoft wireless explorer but i got used to this one. overall great

If you're a fan - don't buy it!!!
I'm a huge Stones fan and just wanted to warn other Stones fans before buying this CD. Most of the songs have been edited to make them shorter. This has been done in a really horrible way. Just listen to the first opening notes of Brown Sugar and you'll see what I mean. But the absolute most horrible "cut" is in Rocks off. In the middle of a sentence the next chorus is started. So if you like long, original versions, you shouln't buy this CD. If you're no Stones fan, you probably shouldn't buy this eigther, but buy the (more expensive) DVD set Four Flicks.Only positive side: the uncut songs are pretty good. Street Fighting man is probably shorter than it used to be, but still sounds good. And Can't you hear me knocking also sounds great. But these are the only two highlights to me, so I am really frustrated after buying this CD.

An Eye Opener
I like the question she poses: "Are you a woman who has had sex with an unsaved or married man?" I believe that probably 98% can answer this question -- "YES." The other 1% are virgins and the other 1% are really 'the same man all my life' women. This is why this novel applies to all. It was a good idea to put a list of STDs in the back of the book. She covered all the basis in this book. I'm passing it on, not just because it was a good book, but hopefully to be able to help others. Outstanding job. Oh, by the way, I like the character list in the front of the book. Even though you don't need it, it comes in handy. I've read many books with lots of characters with no connection and I was lost. I, and I'm sure along with others, appreciate this.

Free trade
It is a very well written book for non-economist and maybe forsome economists who are a bit rusty. Krugman as always warns peoplenot to be intellectually lazy. Intellectual laziness can lead one tofall into the conventional wisdom trap. One must be wary of conventional wisdom as it is often wrong. The author explains very well what free trade is about for a country. It is certainly not a zero-sum game. A country always gains from free trade. However there are some redistributional effects. The country may gain as a whole but certain industries lose. The main lesson from the book is that a country's economic well-being is mostly determined by domestic policies. That is especially true for big economies like the US where trade (exports) represents about 10 to 12 % of gross domestic product (GDP). END

First, McCartney is such a giant that any new music from him should be welcomed. If you think of any of the great composers of popular music in the last one hundred years (Cole Porter, Richard Rodgers, Bacharach, Irving Berlin, etc.), none of them did much good work in their sixties. They all hit their stride in their twenties, thirties, and forties. I am happy that McCartney is still having a go at it. That being said, this is a weak album. It is totally forgettable. I have to wonder if he worked at these melodies - they have the appearance of being lazy and show little effort. Gone are the days when he did take after take or let a song percolate in his memory for months before committing it to the recording studio. Paul is a good family man, a genius of popular music, a great rocker. His best creative work appears to be behind him. Nothing wrong with that. He can perform his back catalogue for years and we will love him for it.

Great nursery piece for the money!
We spent big money on all of her other furniture. This was the last piece we purchased and didn't want to spend as much. (Ours is a darker oak color.) However, we didn't want something "cheap" looking either. We were very impressed that it arrived packaged so well. Double layered and not a scratch on the box. The quality is good, all of the pieces were there, and my husband had it put together in 2-3 hours. It matches her other furniture perfectly. The drawers do fit a lot, but I wish they were deeper. The drawers are not as deep as they look in the picture, the wood paneled fronts just make it look that way. The top is very spacious and roomy enough to fit a nice sized lamp, CD player, and picture frames. All in all, for the price, I highly recommend. I was very nervous purchasing a furniture product online, but I am glad that we did. For the money we spent, it's good quality and perfect for her nursery.

One paragraph expanded to 600+ pages
This book could have easily been edited down to a single paragraph. I held out hope to the last page. I've defended Jordan as the books have become progressively bland and I've been a huge fan until now. I'm done. I feel molested and cheated. When I realized that I had 3 pages left in the book and was still waiting for some big plot twist, something to blow my mind, it dawned on me that I'd wasted a lot of time not even being entertained. I feel betrayed and very disappointed.600 pages of characters sitting around talking about tea and the weather. Even when we come across a haunted village, the characters sit outside it and talk about it then leave. Nothing. nothing.... nothing. what a waste.You know, I'm becoming angry as I write this. I don't even care how the storey ends now. This book was a money grab and a fatal blunder. Jordan, you've stolen the last money you'll ever get out of me.

Another Wonderful Book
Another wonderful book by Ann Burton. This on is Jael's story who's about to marry a man arranged by her parents. She like every other bride hopes for happiness and love. Instead her husband is far worse then she could imagine and she's the third wife. Jael becomes good friends with the two other wives and the coucumbine who shows up a little later. In order to stay alive in her marriage Jael must have sons yet through the other wives Jael learns the only way to do so is by committing adultery. Jael finds that troubling to say the least. Through the cocumbine Jael slowly starts following her God. Her killing of Sisera really surprised even though it happened in the Bible. It was very brave and yet still surprised me. I liked the arrival Deborah and look forward to reading her story.

Nice but not the watch I ordered
It's a very nice, classy looking watch. It looks a lot more expensive than the price. My only disappointment is the photo shows the numbers for the hours. The watch I got has lines for the hour. I wanted the numbers because it's easier to see. I contacted the company and they said the watch I ordered was not available. The option given was to send a return label to me or give me a 15% refund if I choose to keep the watch. I chose to keep the watch since I am now afraid I will run into the same issue if I attempt to order the watch in the photo somewhere else. Oh well. This would have been my second choice watch anyway. I'm still happy with it.

A great head unit!
I'm running this head unit to a 1000W Profile 4ch amp, to 2 sets of Polk db 6500 with a Kenwood KSC-SW1 powered sub to round out the spectrum. I also have the XM black box and digital adapter.The Pros: The USB and SD card options are a real breakthrough in music options. The deck can operate a 512Mb SD card, and a 4GB flash drive. This means no more CD's rolling around in my truck. The sound quality is amazing! The motorized face works smoothly, and seems fairly sturdy.The Cons: This head unit has a pretty large learning curve. Because of the single knob/enter button, scrolling and selecting options can be kind of a pain. Initial setup is also a painstaking task. It has sound settings for every seat and speaker in the car, but trust me, the sound quality is worth the 1.5 hour setup. Also, the display is a little on the grainy side.Overall I would highly recommend this unit. Once you've taken the time to learn the menus, it's a great unit for the money.

I am pleased with overall design, but...
The unusual shape attracts attention, but it is the reason the mail is secure. This is a very low maintenance product and easy to install. I beat on it with a baseball bat (not toooo hard) and no damage or even marks are evident. It is approved by the "Post Master General".The construction is not on par with the design. I purchased two units. One worked perfectly and the other has (had) problems with the mail door staying closed. The design relies on the interference of the door lip and the top of the hole it fits in to. Too much of the plastic was ground off during manufactering and the door tended to flop open. Using pliers I was able to crimp a portion of the plastic at the top of the door causing a firmer fit and now the door stays closed. This problem did not affect the security of the mail.Hard to beat for the price. I recommend the product to my friends.

Jennings at his best...but is he ever at his worst?
I'll be honest. I am a fan of Gary Jennings. A fan of the caliber of 'potential stalker' if he were alive but, alas he is not, so I have to limit myself to reading his novels over and over. And I do. Over and over.Journeyer is a wonderful ride! As good as Aztec, as good as Spangle, as good as Raptor. He's the only author that consistently puts on a great show.Is it sexual? Hell, yes. Just like the world has been from day one. Is it graphic? Yes. Just like the world has been....well, you get the picture.I leave Jennings' books feeling as if I've sat through a history class. But a class that has been one hell of a ride. If you loved Aztec then Journeyer will thrill you just as much. Don't forget Spangle or Raptor, either.Jennings' obit says he was working on a novel involving Babylon when he died. What I wouldn't give to see what he'd completed.

Taste Is An Issue
I bought the Garden of Life Perfect Food after trying Kyo-Green and loving it, but wanting something more complete or beneficial. I actually loved the taste of the Kyo-Green. This stuff was another story. I'm not real finicky about taste, and I know I'm doing it just for the benefits, but this stuff was pretty bad. Kind of a strange fishy odor/taste, maybe from the spirulina? It's not a huge issue, but I always have to have orange juice or grapefruit juice to kill it. The pulp in these helps you ignore any lumps of powder in there too. It's not easy to mix.I recovered MUCH faster from a cold than my loved ones after taking this religiously. I believe it was because of this product. It's good! Cheaper than some, but I think I'll go with something else next time.

Don't waste your money
I purchased this machine based mostly on the reviews. Boy was I dissapointed. I have off white carpet, 2 kids and recently got 2 puppies. Needless to say my carpets were a mess. The Bissell's self propel feature was great, but that was about it. The smart solution tank is not very smart. I used a whole 85oz bottle of solution on 1 room and 1 area rug. The water tank is way too small. I emptied the dirty water tank 5-6 times. After the carpet dried over night I was shocked that the carpet didn't even look liked I cleaned it. I prombtly returned the Bissell. This weekend I borrowed my friends Hoover Steam Cleaner and I couldn't believed how dirty the water was and after the carpet dried the carpet was very bright and clean.

Not a good buy
I bought this item despite the bad reviews it had gotten because I absolutely adored the styling. When it arrived, I unboxed it and checked everything. Clock worked great, radio was so-so, but not a big deal, and the CD had good quality sound for the price. Though I found setting the clock and preset stations a bit complicated for my tastes, overall, I was still pleased. The next week, the radio quit working--still no big deal--since I bought it more for the CD and alarm clock. The week after that, the alarm quit working. Then this week, the CD quit as well. I can't even get it to power "ON." Of course, by this time, I had long ago discarded the box, so returning it was out of the question. What I am left with is perfectly functional clock that keeps great time, but nothing else. Save your money and don't get sucked in by the design the way I did. They clearly need to make some MAJOR improvements on the function before I will EVER buy another one of these!

I've Seen That Movie Too
I'll start by admitting that I did not see Saw IV. I don't think I missed much. Saw V apparently took up where that one left off. The people involved with this franchise would like for me (and others) to somehow sympathize with whackos because they were wronged by our judicial system. They then use the flimsy premise of "let's teach people a lesson through mutilation," by doling out their own form of justice. Yawn. I enjoyed the first two films; however by part 3, all I could do was shake my head. There's nothing new here--much less original. It's just the same old routine of "let's play a game" that involves loss of life--or at least limb. Still, this wasn't as bad as some of the films of this genre. The director did a decent enough job with lighting and sound, but Costas Mandalyor has the stage presence of a turnip.

My crock cracked, too
Agree with all comments. 1) Overall, the crock pot seems to function well. I have the stainless pot and beware, the outside gets incredibly hot. I make sure to keep it away from everything on the counter when I am cooking something; 2) The lid does not seat properly with the crock. This hasn't caused much of a problem and may even be the way it's designed. I have never had the liquid boil away even if the pot is on high all day; 3) My crock cracked after a year of use. To those who have observed that KitchenAid should stand behind it's product and replace the crock no questions asked, I agree. They should also redesign the darn crock so it doesn't crack and provide a free replacement since this is a well-documented issue. Some writers are on their third replacement for cryin' out loud!! KitchenAid is a big corporation that has enjoyed a stellar reputation. Since Whirlpool took over, doesn't seem that they have the same commitment to quality.

Very Disappointing
I agree with my fellow Glass City Sprouts fan. If Paddy McAloon set out to make an album full of simple melodies and lyrics, he succeeded. I don't, however, listen to Prefab Sprout to hear such music. This album, front to back was a profound disappointment, even compared with the usual pop drivel out there. Compared with earlier Sprouts efforts, it was a tragic disappointment. There is very little musical or lyrical depth and substance on this record. It is simply uninteresting.Don't waste your money. If you haven't heard any albums from the band, check out Two Wheels Good, Swoon and Jordan. If you have, be extremely wary before buying Andromeda, and find a record shop that will let you listen to it before purchasing. On a positive note, I look forward to seeing what follows Andromeda. I'm confident that Paddy has some more platinum in the vault.

Save your money
I found this book to be the biggest waste of my time and money that any medicial book could be. I wouldn't have finished it, but I have to review it for a class. I chose this book because it looked like a fresh look at infertility. Now I realize she only has two points to make with this book. One, some treatments that infertile patients undergo have long term side effects. Two, there isn't much research to show the rate of "spontaneous" conceptions versus IVF and similar treatments. Would you like to be the control of that study? She hammers that people could get pregnant on their own if they tried longer. Nice thought, but if you to the put where you are considering IVF or GIFT, another 5 years is a long time. In addition to her research, I also found the writing to be poor. She used overly techinical language and writing when there was rarely a need.

Capitalizing on God - What a CRIME
What a disgusting JOKE! Rick Warren isn't a man of God - he's a man with a large bank account! What next - Purpose-Driven Toothpaste? Purpose-Driven Hemmorhoid Medication? How about Purpose-Driven Burgers? When is it going to stop?!?!? How many books did Jesus write? Did He brag about having a HUGE church? Why didn't Jesus have "Scripture Keeper Plus With Cards?" Enough is enough - how about living a life like Jesus, Rick Warren? Give up EVERYTHING. Work with the ill, infirm, sick, dying - EVERYDAY?! Did Jesus need Peter Drucker to market his Word? Oh well...this is just yet another item to help boost your bank account. (Did Jesus need one of those?)

Smooth Jazz Killed the Yellowjackets
To call this disk "The Best of the Yellowjackets" is a joke. Absent are the great early tunes like the title track from Greenhouse; in fact, there are NO tunes on this CD from Greenhouse, The Spin, or Four Corners. What the heck happened to this band, with their interesting phrasing and intricate compositions? What happened to the great sax? WHAT HAPPENED?! Thank God I have their earlier work on cassette. I cannot even find the CDs now. They must be out of print. At any rate, do NOT waste your money on this CD. I just bought the disk today and it is bound for the nearest used record store as soon as I have time to unload it. This band totally sold out to so-called smooth jazz (a misnomer for yuppie elevator muzak) and it simply is not worth the money. How sad. At this point, my only hope is that they've disbanded. The last thing we need is another smooth jazz group. Yellowjackets, R.I.P.

Rough Stuff
I didn't have such luck with this product as the other reviewers--unfortunately I got SEVERE abdominal cramps the few times I tried it. Still, it's worth a try because it works for many people. Just bear in mind that if you get some bad cramping, you are probably sensitive to SENNA, the active ingredient in the tea. So stay away from other SENNA products, too. (usually labeled "Stimulant Laxative.")So what works for me? Lots of the high-fiber foods every day. Plenty of raw fruits (except banana) and vegetables (two raw carrots a day works wonders!) Whole grains every day makes a big difference--I especially like brown rice and oatmeal. Apples are yummy: I eat one every day. Eating beans and legumes is also very helpful. Buy some dried lentils--they cook the fastest--and google some soup recipes. And keep products made with white flour to a minimum.In the worst case scenario, try plain old water.

One Of The Scariest Games I've Played
This is definitely a good horrific game that can scare even older gamers. It kind of plays like the third-person Duke Nukem games. The violence of this game is higher than most and sometimes just downright nasty. The graphics are very well done. The music is very eerie and will keep you tense for the whole game. The challenge of this game could be a little different because you spend most of the game solving puzzles and little time killing zombies and monsters. Unfortunately, the play control needs a lot of work because it takes time to get used to. I suggest playing with the first-person control option (it's a lot easier). This game might have been better as a first-person shooter (like Doom). You'll want to play it to the end because this is one of those games where you'll want to see what happens next. And sometimes what happens next can scare the daylights out of you!

I think the director has been smoking crack!
I'm not joking! this movie is so dumb. What is the point. How about the plot? If you want to learn what happens to you if you smoke crack, watch this movie. It is about some guy who works on cable. That is all I can say. I didn't understand this movie at all. He was a wakko guy obsessed with tv. Wow! that certainly was a big hit, NOT! If you have money to burn, and need to know what you might end up like if you take drugs, Watch this movie.

Awesome CD!
I heard Mary's Boy Child on the radio last christmas season and just HAD to have it. I spent the whole season looking and asking in the music stores. This year I started early doing the same, looking & asking in all of the music stores. No one even knew who Boney M was! So, I turned to amazon.com and GOT IT. I got it for that one song, but I really LOVE the entire CD. It's great. I wish more people in the US knew how great these guys were. They are really exceptional! Definate 5 stars! Definate MUST HAVE! I even listen to it in the car, and I never bring a christmas CD in the car!

Big disappointment! :(
I hate to be a downer on MK & A, because they are lovely and talented girls. But this movie was a huge disappointment. They must have used a completely NEW crew on this film! The editing was sloppy, the script seemed to be incomplete and out of order, and the scenes didn't even fit well together! It was honestly frustrating to watch. My little sister claimed she could have written a better script! Haha. But MK & A are still some of the best role models ever, beautiful, talented, and I am a FAN FOREVER! Let's just hope they can produce more films at the quality of "Our Lips Are Sealed." SIDE COMMENT: to w scott keigwin, if you had watched the behind the scenes on the DVD, you would have noticed that the "fake accents" were actually real! Most of the teens in the movie were literally from Italy, Germany, etc. So maybe they weren't so terrible at the accents after all, eh????

I have a dream too
That one day 4 year olds will be able to actually read this book.This book is not meant for kids aged 4-8. It is well beyond what they understand. Frankly , i don't even think a 4 year old can even read this. Nice pictures. But unfortunately , i don't enjoy buying a book for pictures. I can get pictures anywhere. I didn't need to purchase this book to get them. Anyway , don't buy this book unless you enjoy paying a high price for pictures. With regards to the age group. Unless you have a gifted 4 year old this book is a waste of time for him/her.Just another note , you have to be over the age of 13 to write a feedback. So the poor gifted 4-8 year olds can't even leave feedback about this book.

Frederic Fekkai Glossing Cream
I heard about this on an episode of Oprah, After the Show on Oxygen.. Some one from the audience asked Oprah how she (or her hairdresser) keeps her hair so shiny and managable. She mentioned the Fekkai glossing cream. I googled it and decided to order a 7 oz tube. Normally I am very frugal and was hesitant to spend much money on hair care items, but after the first application (pea sized) I was stunned at the amazing change in the texture and feel and appearance of my hair. My hair is slightly wavy and continually at risk for the frizzies. This product left my hair soft, but not limp or greasy. It was so shiny and the scent was nice. This is the first product that has tamed my hair! I highly recommend it!!

Such BAD quality for a good quality film
This is a classic piece of film. Why the transfer is so bad I don't know. It looks like a super 8 film transfered to VHS, then transfered to DVD. During distant scenes on the banks of the river, John Cleese's face looks like a white blob. There is a definite hum in the sound that obviously suggests this is NOT a digital transfer at all. You can also see video tracking at the bottom of the picture. (This has defintly come from a VHS tape)I was so looking forward to buying this DVD, and adding this fantastic short movie to my collection. (I'm using it as a drink coaster now)The picture is so washed out that there is barely any color at all.This is so bad. If John Cleese knew they were selling his work like this for money, I'm know he'd be pretty pissed off. (If it was my work I would be)Even though the price is low for a DVD, many people feel they've been ripped off. They should.

Excellent boot and Excellent service!!!
Frye is top notch. This is my second Frye boot. The first one i have is a black harness, and so far, 15 years later, its still holding up! The most you'll have to do is resole them every once in a while. So, its a great investment. Most shoes / boots, do not last that long. I got the Tan Vintage and it is one of a kind. A buddy has the same pair and the look and pattern is different, so each boot has it's own old look. I have an 11.5/12 foot, and it fits perfect into a 10.5 boot. So just order a at least size or 1.5 smaller than normal. The boot is darker on the base and slightly lighter up top. Excellent all the way around!!!

6 stars for Star Time.
Star Time is the greatest box set is the universe. But that's not saying enough, because the competition is so lousy. Let me see. Star Time is one the greatest human acheivements, right up there with music itself. This is modern music. Listen to the drum solo at the end of "Funky Drummer". Listen to "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag." What are you doing? Stop reading and go listen now. You mean you don't own this CD? Buy it!

farce
this video was a farce to all garbage collectors. it advertised rearend trucks on the box but none in the video!! that's false advertising. their idiotic cariature was a slap in the face to trash workers in general. you don't stop to pick up trash w/o applying the parking brake if you leave the cab!! what if the truck ran away & hurt or killed someone? it's was a limited display of front & sideloaders. how can they forget the most versatile of them all?! the good old rear loader. it uses chains, cart tippers, kickbars or cables. also they could've talked about rolloff trucks or lugger trucks. it ws very limited on the trucks they talked about with their buffoonic shenanigans.

Terrible sizing ended up not fitting at all
I really wanted to make the Rocket Dog shoes work. They're stylin and eco-friendly (the white hemp version is). Problem is Rocket Dog doesn't realize guys won't wear shoes that don't fit.I'm normally a size 11-12, so I ordered one of each. Didn't fit. Returned and ordered a 10.5. Didn't fit because the shoes still slipped quite a bit when walking. I could tell they would end up giving me blisters on my heel if I did any serious walking. Returned and ordered a 10. This time they were too small and compressed my toes.Whoever is in charge of sizing @ Rocket Dog should be fired. I've never been so frustrated with fitting shoes. If you really want these, find them in a store somewhere and try them on. DON'T ORDER THEM ONLINE or you'll be spending lots of money on return shipping.

Not worth the time or money, no customer service
Do NOT buy from this seller! Do NOT buy this pen! I received this 8 panel gogo exercise pen and had hoped that it would work as solution for containing my 9-month old Maltipoo. She knocked it over immediately. We had planned to use it in the house, but that isn't possible. It must be staked down to work. We also ordered the top for it, and it was so flimsy and poorly made it fell in to the pen, fortunately, my dog wasn't in it!I went through Amazon to get return authorization. Request was submitted on 10/19/11. Resubmitted on 10/21/11. Resubmitted on 10/24/11. No response from Dig It (the seller), other than to ask me why I wanted to return it. No authorization has been received to date. I don't hold them responsible for the flimsiness of the product, but I do expect Customer Service within 48 hours, as Amazon promised. I will not do business with this seller, and I have so advised my dog-owning friends.

Knockers Alert! Halle Berry Nude!
I don't remember much about the plot of Swordfish. It may have been half decent or had some good lines in it. But most importantly it does feature a nude Halle Berry. She is already something else with clothes on, but nude? Bull market! This DVD is well worth the price to see Halle Berry's impressive cocoa casabas on full unclad display.It also stars John Travolta as an anti-terrorism agent or something, and it has Halle Berry nude in it. To repeat, Halle Berry appears nude for a scene in Swordfish. If you would like to see Halle Berry nude anytime you want I would recommend buying this DVD. You can do what I do and pause that part so you can look at Halle Berry nude for as long as you like. (I'm trying to make it into a poster.) Like I said I don't remember the plot too much, because I mainly focused on Halle Berry in the nude. She's hot. And nude in this movie!Haven't watched the Terminator movie yet.

DeMille Does It Again
Fans of DeMille will be delighted with Up Country. While it may be his longest work yet, it is one which the reader will not want to end. Those readers who served in the military, particularly the Army, during the Vietnam war will find that bond forged by a common hardship and suffering carries over into DeMille's work--once an infantryman, always an infantryman. DeMille, as usual, develops his characters in sharp and complicated detail. With every twist and turn of the plot, another layer of complexity is added to the two main characters, Paul Brenner and Susan Weber. And as usual, DeMille's dialogue is dead on always, and hilarious at times. I had to leave the bedroom while I read Up Country. I kept laughing out loud at Brenner's wiseass dialogue and waking my wife. Do yourself a favor and buy this book. It's the best read you will have until the next DeMille novel is published. I haven't enjoyed myself as much since I read The Gold Coast.

BOO!!!!!
I think that this is the worst book that I have read. This story was crappy. It had some potential, but nothing came of it. Vanessa is whiney, immature, childish, annoying and selfish. The problems that she had with Parker to make her so scared are never clear. She never wants to talk about it or even think about it, so you never know what happened and what whe did talk about was not really all that bad to actually scare a woman. I though Nick was areally good guy. Why he stuck around for any of that is anyones guess. I liked Rodney. He was cool. And being that this is the first book that I have read by Linda, it does not give a good out look. The other reviews say that this is not her usual style and usually her books are not so crappy. I hope so. This wins the award of "Worst book read....EVER". Yep, its that bad.

Best Album With the Full Rock Band
I'm a huge TMBG fan. I bought this disc and thought it was okay. Then I taped it and listened to it over and over in my car because I wanted to like it more. And now I do. The songs that I didn't like right away I "get" now. Wicked Little Critta is the best example. I truly hated it at first listen, but now I get it and I like it a lot.In 1994 TMBG released "John Henry", their fifth album, which had a full rock band on most of the songs. Previously they had been a quirky duo making more esoteric sounds. I was disappointed by the sound of "John Henry". I found it to be a sad capitulation to the grating sound of "modern rock". Mink Car is their first full band album I have truly loved the way I loved their first four albums.

The wallpaper of our lives
A lot of the same old suspects, all these "various artists" but no Deep Purple once again. Purple's 2005 album, "Rapture of the Deep" has sold close to a million. Why? Because it's a great disc. But no Grammy nomination?!Of course there are some worthy choices here, Green Day, Paul McCartney, Kelly Clarkson and The Rolling Stones for example. But even the new Stones album can't hold a candle to "Rapture of the Deep."And what about U2? What a pitiful album for such talented artists and why a grammy nomination? Let's all face it, they're simply part of the wallpaper of our lives. That's right, just keep jamming it down our throat. No wonder the "music biz" is going down the tubes.Buyer beware.

Not worth the money
This disco was a big disappointment! It is so cheaply made yet so expensive to buy. My sister in law and I put it together on Christmas eve for my 8 year old daughter. My sister in law could not believe how much I paid for this toy because it is so not worth the money. It also does not work that well. The dolls usually fall off the moving runway and there are so many little pieces and only one little drawer to fit it all into. Also, the dolls are unable to sit on the chairs. My daughter was excited to get this toy but after playing with it for a little while she told me that it looked much funner on tv. I forgot to mention that it falls apart if moved so make sure you have it where you want it before you start playing with it. Don't make the mistake I did, don't buy this toy! Your child may think that she wants it but once she gets it and TRIES to play with it she won't be as intrigued as she should be for a toy you spent [this much] on.

Boring, religious, pretentious, platitudinous
The only Julia Roberts movie I disliked. And I hated it. And god I thought it would never end. I hear the book's better. I wouldn't dream of reading it. My sister (a Christian to the homophobic hilt) thought it was wonderful. All the bad reviews of this flick I read are right on. It is tedious, episodic, a travelogue with food and religion. She rips herself away from her husband to go (on the advice of a fortune teller) on a search for herself. Also she looks very old in this movie. Which would be okay if she were playing a character her age. I planned to buy this flick (I'm crazy about Julia Roberts), but changed my mind.

Very happy with my caquelon!
I got this fondue set after a loooong search online. I wanted to make cheese fondue, so I knew I wanted to buy a ceramic pot and not metal (I used to have a copper one, too high maintenance, and also got a stainless steel one, but it does not perform well for cheese). My friends got theirs in Switzerland, but I could not find it here. This one looked very similar so I tried it. I am very satisfied. We made the fondue on the stove and then transferred to the table (I did not use the fuel source provided but a regular tea candle, and it kept the caquelon at the right temperature, without burning the cheese). I cleaned beautifully!My kids don't like cheese fondue, so I obliged with repeat performances of chocolate fondue. Also perfect, and what a success! The only issue is that the forks, even though quite beautiful, don't have the color identification that other sets have. No big deal for me, but a disappointment for my children.

If I could give it 0 stars...
...I would. I had high hopes for this device. It was going to eliminate me from having to reach over my couch, very uncomfortably, in order to turn on my lamp. Instead, I plugged it in, clapped a couple times, and nothing happened.Hmmm...maybe I just have to adjust the sensitivity. I tweaked the sensitivity until my hands were raw and I got no response from the device. I decided to try it on different outlets with different appliances. I still got no response. Maybe it will work in the three clap plug! Nope. I promptly packed it back up and returned it to Amazon.com (at which time they graciously provided a refund).I have to imagine this product has worked for someone. That someone just isn't me. You've been warned.

Sadly disappointed
I have used a Rowenta Steam Generator Iron for 3 years and loved every minute of it. Then one day it stopped generating steam. I felt like it was such a good investment that I decided I would get Rowenta again. What a disappointment. The 5030 doesn't have a detachable water container. It drips and spits everytime I use it no matter the temp. It sits high and isn't nearly as stable on the ironing board. When I needed to add water ( I was assuming because there is no way to know for sure) I followed instructions and let the steam out of the generator by hitting the steam button on the iron until there was no steam, then I opened the generator and poured in water. A gyser like explosion happened and hot water went everywhere. I am back in the market for a steam generator. Rowenta made a huge mistake when they got rid of the other model and added the 5030 to their line.

MFC 9940 sucks both in terms of networking and amount of time it takes to set this up
I have had the MFC for a few hours and moved twice. Each time its been painful to reset this up. I tried to set this up as a network printer and OMG. This thing sucks you dry in terms of time and amount of nonsense. Try using the Brother Website to find a drive. It says this product does not exist. Brother's customer service. Non existent and no help.I have an old HP 2600 that was bought before the MFC 9940. It took me all of ten minutes to set it up to print in home network.I am never ever buying a Brother. I have used so many of Brother devices and each time I have the same set of issues. Forget the price folks, just pay a bit extra and buy some other brand.

This Microwave Oven Delivers
After ten years my old "Radar" Range finally gave up the ghost. I purchased the Panasonic NN-H764WF and what a difference. So far everything works as advertised. The display is very easy to read/use and the manual is well written. I tried the "Popcorn Button" first, thinking it was just a gimmick. The first setting was for a standard 3.5 oz bag and the popcorn came out perfect. I was impressed. Next I tried the reheating feature and received the same perfect results. The oven has loads of power and a large capacity. It's quiet and you have several customizable features. I was sorry to see my old oven die, but I have to say my loss was my gain. I highly recommend this oven.

One of the best!!
Hands down, one of the best comedies of the 80's. Chevy was at his best and director Harold Ramis was on a role. (Caddyshack and Stripes.)Many cuts and versions are out there but the truest I've seen, so far, is the anniversary edition. It's in widescreen (I've heard matted/cropped,not sure, but??), nice 5.1 mix, some decent special features but where are all those deleted scenes and the alternate ending?Plus, a big [..] I have. "I'm so exited" was the song played when Christie Brinkley pulls along side Chevy(Clark Griswald) in the original. Why, still is "Little boy sweet" a song also by the Pointer Sisters used instead?? Both songs were used in the movie. The latter in the truckstop sceen where Chevy eats the pissed on sandwhich.Is the copyright on that song that expensive to get it??Dunno. Great movie. Lotta fun.Best DVD of it yet. Agreed??

Great intro
I got this game when I was a kid. I loved everything to do with space so I thought I would love to play this game. Outpost starts out with a great intro about the end of the world. You play the leader of the last humans and you are on a mission to find a new planet. You start out by equipping your ship with supplies, picking a star to travel to and fueling up. The intro uses a great voice over and better graphics to make you get in the mood of the game.Here is where the problem starts.After all the cool cinematic and cool voice over you finally get to the colony building stage. This is the game you have been waiting for. Guess what? It's terrible. I had no idea what I was doing, if I was doing anything right. I built things that I had no idea what they were or what they did. It didn't matter what I did nothing happened. I remember trying to figure out what to do but I never did.This game had a great intro but terrible gameplay.

Why, God?
I understand a lot of you like this movie. I cannot say the same. Never much for musicals, and always big on Eastwood westerns- I nearly vomited when I saw this. Two of the coolest actors to ever star in a Western- together...singing?! I love Lee MArvin and Eastwood, but this movie was rediculous. I enjoyed the plot, sort of...it was just the absolute wrong movie for these guys. I hear who's in it, and I expect Hang 'Em High or High Plains Drifter, and an Ennio Morricone score. I got this instead. As you can see, I'd be dissapointed. It was even worse to see what everyone thinks is a joke from the Simpsons, is a real movie. Thumbs way down on this one. If you're into musicals, you might like it- if you're a movie person, don't subject yourself to this.

bend over arthur
This movie is a one star movie, nothing more. And I don't think it pretends to be anything else. It's just a totally amateurish attempt at a gay themed movie. There are so many lapses of logic, so many stupid, unreal events, that it is quickly apparent this movie is made to laugh at. It would be incredulous to me to think the writer, director, producer, lead star (yes, all the same guy!) meant for this to be taken seriously. The distributors misled us, though, with the picture of the hot guy on the cover of the dvd, appealing to our prurient desires. The picture is the best thing about this product, and except for some unintended comedy, it's the only thing of value in this movie! It's all downhill after that.Kudos to all the other reviewers here on Amazon. I laughed my a** off at their many virulent comments, by far more entertaining than anything I saw in the film. It was worth watching the movie just to then read everyone's comments!

How could Haldeman do it?
I saw the book yesterday lunch-time at Sydney airport terminal and had a few hours to fill in. The Forever War is one of my very favourite hard sf books and I couldn,t believe my good fortune in spotting the sequel.ITS AWFUL. Starts off well then descends into soft fairy-tale fantasy. I can't describe how disappointing the book is. I read it straight through in four hours. It really came apart for me when the Time Warp strange events started and was all downhill from there.What about the unnatural origin of MF and its biosphere? Just mentioned and left. What about the derelict civilisation found by the Taurans? Just mentioned and left. What relevance have the Omnis? Go figure.Joe, how could you do this?

Thumbs Down
My rating is a resounding thumbs down.The first problem is the power on-off button is reversed. My router operates with the power button on the off position. This machine obviously never went though a quality inspection at the factory.The second problem is the router continually locks the bits in the collet. I tried every lubricant imaginable without success. Once the bit is locked in, plan on keeping it in place for a while, a very long while. I have been forced to use pliers to pry the bits out. The freezing complaint is repeated numerous times by other users. I incorrectly assumed Porter Cable (PC) would have resolved this by the time of my purchase.I must be missing something here. For the $160 price the PC 310 cost, you can buy the PC 690LR ($125) with more power and still get some router bits for less. The PC 310 is a dinosaur doomed to extinction. We can only hope PC either re-engineers this product or stops production before it further tarnishes its reputation.

These are not a good buy...
I got these LCD protectors for my new camera. I was excited when they came in the mail as I have protectors on both my ipod and cell. These were not so good. They put little stickers saying which side to open first on each protector that are impossible to remove neatly. You know those stickers that you just have to scrub and scrub to get all the gooey stuff off? Well this is it... they did not remove. I tried all 3 protectors to try and get one just looking good. IT did not work. If I were to use one of these protectors on my camera, I would be looking into gooey remainder of sticky everytime I want to take a picture. Let me know if anyone knows of good LCD protectors for a 2.5 screen please! I would stay away from these!

Excellent performance!
I've purchased at least 5 fax programs over the past 5 years, and none worked very well until I got this one. It loaded in no time. I opened a legal document in MS Word, and faxed it as a test, and Voila! it sent it immediately. The copy received at the fax location was perfect. I have a 56KFlex modem, and a DSL line. There was no conflict. This is a streamlined, slick program, without all the extras you don't need,use or want. It faxes. It does group broadcasts. It does what it says it does. Buy it if you want a small and reliable piece of software. (By the way, a few months ago I used iCommunicate and it ruined my Explorer file, which caused my entire system to crash. I had to get a new computer it was so bad.! )

Mediocre Music & Animation
First off I have to say this it is a crime to compare this movie in any way to Ghost in the Shell. At some points, the animation can seem fluid and smooth. For the most part, however, it is blocky and rushed. Especially in the really important parts, with the android, the body parts are rigid and the motion choppy. The music? Eh, mediocre at best. Typical rock/electro with dreamy female vocals. Ths story has been done SO many times, it is sad. Man creates android, android questions existence, blah blah blah. The original Ghost in the Shell movie did it best.I guess if you must see it for yourself, then go ahead. Whatever you do, DO NOT BUY IT. $20 for a 35 minute movie? If you think that's a good deal, then go ahead my friend.

Resident evil at its worst
Resident evil 2, may i say, is one of the best games of all time. So was re1, re0, and re code veronica. But not resident evil 3. First of all, whats with the difficulty mode?!! U either put it on easy and it starts u with enough ammo to finish the rest of the game with, or u put it on hard and it makes it so u barely have enough. But the worst part is the tyrant. It chases u so u barely have a chance to explore. It literally follows u through doors and into new areas constantly! He's hard to kill and always comes back. Plus he can kill u in one or two hits and is fast. It takes away from the fun of the game. Forget this game and try resident evil 2 or one of the others..... you will thank me later.

Lucas no No NO!!!! Leave it SW alone!
This isn't what I was expecting. This isn't the Star Wars I kept long memories of. I don't like the changes or any of the CGI. Why tamper with a piece of art? To me Star Wars was fine as it was back in 77'. This isn't what I wanted.I'm just making this short. I don't want to make a big deal, but I mean come on! What's next? Maybe 10 years from now Lucas is going to make changes again to Episode IV? What could possible he do to make it wrong? How about a scene in which Han and Luke are walking out of the Millenium Falcon and encounter that unfunny stupid clown of Jar-Jar....Sheesh!!!!Lucas gone mad someone STOP HIM!!!!

Disney Leftovers
I bought the sing-a-long for Christmas and my little girl loves it. In March we gave her the Stories for her 4th birthday. She has watched it exactly one time. The first story is about Ariel meeting a hearing impaired mermaid who signs. The next two stories were read aloud over still pictures that changed occasionally. The last story was an old episode from the Aladdin series on the Disney channel. I suspect the Ariel story was an old episdode, too. They weren't even good stories! I would have preferred all the stories to be the still kind if they were at least original. I am very disappointed in Disney. Walt must be turning in his grave!

Where's the cheesy tiara, snot scene?
Wow. This had to be the most un-thrilling horror movie I've ever seen. Everyone is killed the exact same way. There is little to no tension in most of the scenes. No gore. Snore. Good points: I liked the slow to fast motion during some of the killing scenes. And the main girl was almost a two-dimensional character. Story centers around a girl whose parents were killed by one of her obsessed teachers. He escapes prison 7 years later and cops try to catch the killer before the killer gets to the girl during prom. Big negative: No cheesy tiara scene. Could use more runny mascara/snot scenes too. If you're looking for a cheesy, funny, prom-gore-fest - this movie is not your top choice.

Horribly Bland and Depressing
I read this book in my high school AP english class for independent study and could not believe that it had such a high rating on this website. This was one of the worst books I have ever read. The charcters were not realistic at all. They were all complacent, pathetic, and sad. Who could possibly sympathize with Charlotte?? She is a worthless person who abandons the commitments she has made to her family and her children and doesn't really care. She is so apathetic and egotistical that other people don't seem to matter to her. Albeit, her life certainly isn't perfect but she seriously needs to be on Prozac! And the other charcters, a criminal and a naive pregnant fourteen-year old who wears a pink sundress. Just pathetic! I can't even talk anymore about how atrocious this work was because it is making me angry to just have to write this in the first place. Please, find a book with imagination and character. Go somewhere else!

Trashy
This book looked so good from the back and the cover. It even started out good. I like the setting and the ideas behind it. But then it goes completely downhill. There is no plot. Just wasted pages filled with trash. The charcters meander around hopelessly arguing with each other and worse. Supposedly, they're all on a plot to destroy a demon, but they only get going in about the last fifty pages. And then it's all easy. All that whining and the demon is destroyed in about a page. Sorry if I'm ruining it for anyone, but I'm advising you not to waste your time with this book anyways.

F80 +WinXP ServPak 2 won't work.
Have had printer 1 1/2 years and then upgraded my win98 SE computer to Win XP Pro. Now whenver I print from Win XP Pro it tells me that MPS in not connected (error) when it in fact IS connected. ???? Canon Website did reproduce the ERROR messages but there 40XXXt upgrade driver DOES NOT fix the problem. Even when used on a STAND ALONE computer. I have uninstalled hardware & software it will only orint from MS word one time; when you first install driver. Then after a hard boot it won't work again???? All this for $350 printer/scanner/fax that won't work with XP Pro? I am not using network features either. Canon needs to do better than this to keep me as a customer. What happens when I want a home networked printer? (Is the lesson then----> Don't get a Canon? you cant upgrade it?)

Disappointing
This book records a series of voyages by Frank Dye in a 16' Wayfarer dinghy, over the course of six summers, starting in Florida, continuing up the east coast of the US, and into Canada, ending finally in the western Great Lakes. Given the vast distances & challenging sailing conditions, and the author's wonderful previous outing, "Ocean Crossing Wayfarer," I expected a gripping read. No such luck. Dye's wife Margaret started out as crew, but bailed on the voyage about 900 miles in. I bailed at the Bay of Fundy and didn't finish the book. She was tired and cold and sick. I was just bored. Margaret Dye edited "Ocean Crossing Wayfarer". This one was Frank Dye's alone. He may be the sailor of the family, but she is plainly the writer. I have no doubt that Dye experienced some remarkable things on the voyages described. Unfortunately we aren't privy to them. Its title notwithstanding, "Sailing to the Edge of Fear" reads little better than a log book.
