Never Random Humor
Simply a triumph! The satirical wit of this collection has an uncanny knack of hitting the nail directly and solidly over the head with blows that only appear random. A must read for anyone who is, or who ever plans to be a woman. The dieting advice alone will keep the reader rolling in mirth, "Join the Fatkins Revolution!" takes dieting to a level of entirely unholy glee rarely experienced by the diet conscious.

SIMPLY THE BETH
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SERIES OF ITS TYPE I'VE READ/LISTENED TO . . . EVER. THE STORIES ARE AMAZINGLY COMPELLING. THE CHARACTERS ARE FULLY DEVELOPED AND INTERESTING. THERE ARE JUST ENOUGH TWISTS AND TURNS TO MAKE THIS A TRUE PAGE-TURNER. LISBETH IS MY NEW SHERO AND EVERYONE, MEN AND WOMEN, FINDS HER TRIUMPHS OVER THE SYSTEM AND HER ENEMIES EXHILLARATING. BLOMKVIST, IS QUITE A MAN AS WELL. IN THE BEGINNING HE WAS ALMOST TOO PERFECT, BUT WHEN HIS FLAWS ARE REVEALED, HE ACTUALLY BECOMES THAT MUCH MORE ENDEARING. OVERALL, A GREAT BOOK, AND MUST MENTION THE READER, SIMON VANCE, HE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST EVER. HIS ABILITY TO CHANGE HIS VOICE FOR EACH CHARACTER (AND THERE ARE A LOT OF 'EM) SO THAT YOUR EARS EASILY RECOGNIZE THE SOMETIMES SUBTLE NUANCES OF EACH IS SIMPLY AMAZING. I'D LISTEN TO ANYTHING HE READS, BUT HE'S PERFECTION IS THIS SERIES.

Not even close!
I can't believe some of the reviews for this piece of trash that I've read here. Did any of those people actually READ the book? Apparently not, or phrases like "true to the book" and "author's vision" would never have been written. About the only things this movie has in common with the book are the character and place names, everything else is completely different. It's pretty clear that David Lynch didn't read the book, either.A far, far better treatment is the mini-series John Harrison directed that played on the Sci-Fi Channel in 2000, starring William Hurt and Alex Newman. An extended Director's Cut (in widescreen) is available and is even better. Don't waste your time with Lynch's disaster, get Harrison's version and enjoy a movie that really does remain true to Frank Herbert's epic novel. Harrison also directed "Children Of Dune" for Sci-Fi and it is very good, too.

This was one of my favorites from the Whispers.
This was one of my favorites from the Whispers. Lost and turned out is my favorite. I think its telling ladies not to sell yourself for anyone and never to settle for less. Headlights was really a jumping song back in the day, really nice to dance to.

So many better choices!
This game is easy to learn, and will get your toddler started with board games. But be warned, it's fantastically boring for adults to play. Be prepared to sit around rolling the die turn after turn waiting for it to land on the one thing you need to finish the game. Just about any game by Haba would be a better choice.

A Musician Plays Beethoven
For years, my touchstone recording of the 32 Beethoven Piano Sonatas has been the Arthur Schnabel 1930s version. I had always wanted sound on a par with the musicianship. However, Fleisher, my favorite "modern" Beethoven performer, although he has given us amazing performances of the piano concerti, never got to these before he was stricken.Have no fear. This is it! Frank's performance is wonderous. The desciple's musicianship is on a par with his mentor, and the sound lets me hear even more. It is even better than I hoped.

Hilarious!
I have read all the books and decided to try the shows after seeing that Hugh Laurie was in them. They are just great! It took me awhile to get the hang of their accents and to interpret some of the words that we don't hear often but once I did, I just cracked up. Hugh Laurie and those buggy eyes of his makes all his expressions even funnier than they would normally be. Stephen Fry is a great actor too and so solemn in his part that he will make you laugh out loud. The situations that Bertie gets himself into and Jeeves has to help him out of are truly hilarious and you will love the series! Also try watching The Best of Fry and Laurie shows. They are also very good.

FFXI Fanboy Collection for sure!
The price is a little steep, but if you've got vivid memories of FFXI like I do then this is the ultimate collector's kit for you! With a fantastic collection of 7 discs, a printed score book of the music from the piano solo disc, and lots of great artwork, this will probably be the gem of your Final Fantasy music collection for a long time to come.It includes everything! Some of the most noteworthy are:All 3 main city themesThe Jeuno Christmas holiday remixA Fantastic piano solo of the Windurst city theme.All in all there are hours and hours of music on this collection that any Final Fantasy music lover will cherish forever.

Help is on the way for Mainline (Oldline) Congregations
I was so struck by the Words of Introduction describing this curriculum. Who is it for?I have been serving as Pastor of the same church for ten years. Our journey from a "membership" to a "discipleship" church is underway, although it is challenging inspiring congregants to speak about matters of faith in a refreshing, tolerant and open-minded way. Thanks to Heather and Lisa's work, there is a cirriculum that dignifies the faith formation process for pastors and churches who believe "God is Still Speaking" in our post-modern world.Talking Faith is for us! I highly recommend that the "unchurched" or "seeker" be invited to attend these sessions along with members of the local church.It's working well in MARev. Dr. Peter Lovett

This Book is a Comfort to read...!! The memories and good feelings that this book conjures up of being raised basically the same way the Russert Family was is very refreshing.

Squish the mouse!
I don't know what to say. I bought this album and after hearing it over and over, i cant find any other favorite song other than "Float On". Yes, the song before it is fine, and the final two songs are fine. But it is a deception in the sense that its just too weird. Some songs are just too wacky. The horns, trumpets get too wild and a combination of bad music plus the lead singer's voice is a complete catastrophy. All I know is that I wasted my money on this. I expected more catchy songs other than "Float On", but there are hardly any other than that one. They have some soft songs too, perhaps too soft. I would not recommend this album. Do NOT waste your money. Instead, download "Float On" and that's it.

Almost there!
This is, by and large, a great soundtrack. Mostly I got it because I'm a huge Scrubs fan, but it definitely stands on its own. The Superman track is great, the songs by Colin Hay are especially moving... the reason that this CD gets four stars instead of five is that Ted's band's (they're actually called "the Blanks" in real life) songs aren't on here. I was really, REALLY wanting to get a copy of the Mighty Mouse theme. Luckily those ARE available, too, in their "riding the wave" album. These two together make up the quintessential Scrubs listening experience.I would have left out "She's got the hooch" from this CD, because it's otherwise so easily accessible. I would have preferred one of the less well known and more emotionally impacting songs from the show in its place.

Cuisinart Chef's Classic Cookware
I needed new cookware and wanted an affordable, durable, set. I ordered one saucepan from the Chef's Classic collection and immediately fell in love with it. I subsequently ordered the entire basic set. They're very well made, non-stick, and easy to clean. I heartily recommend any product from this Cuisinart set.

I suggest checking out Kyle's columns before buying the book. If you like the columns, you will like the book. If you don't care for the columns, you won't care for the book. You can look at my 2 star rating to see what I think about the columns and the book.

Awful
The only reason I read this book is because I had already bought it. Save your money, it's not a keeper. It's a Fantasy written with too many modern romance moments that just kill the atmosphere. Not at all dark or sensual, just annoying. Too bad I can't give it zero stars.

excellent product
The product came exactly as specified, the design of the product makes it extremely easy to carry around with you...it is light weight, but also durable with a plastic cover that closes over the scale. It is pretty much always accurate, but may not register under .3 g, anything above that registers almost immediately making the product very accurate. I would definitely recommend this to other people.po

Next they'll give us serious Sleestaks!
I completely agree with the reviewer before me. Why must we see every hokey old television series turned into a modern production? Enough already. Making a hokey series into a non-hokey series is even worse. This reminds of when they tried to make the Brady Bunch into a drama called "The Bradys". Marcia was a drunk. Bobby was crippled. It was supposed to be more sophisticated. Instead it was all pointless. The reviewer before me hit the nail on the head. "So what" indeed.

Film Uderwater
First off, I would like to say that I am an M. Night Shyamalan fan. I had read the mixed reviews for this film but had to see for myself so I waited for the DVD to come out. I am very disappointed with this film. I kept waiting for something significant to happen. Some moment when the film would take a turn to a new level. That never happened. I found myself looking on the DVD box for the running time of the movie. This movie never kicked into the next gear. It was very slow in the beginning. Just as slow in the middle and finished with a whimper. It felt very contrived from start to finish. Overall a real snore fest. I do not even recommend this for rental when you have extra time on your hands. You would be better off watching one of his earlier films for the third or fourth time.

Features did not work
Seemed like exactly the product I needed for yoga and meditation. And it would have been if the features actually worked. But, the light alarm and audible alarm do not work. There are on/off switches for these features on the back of the timer, and whether set to on or off, they do not work. I tried replacing the batteries but that did not solve the problem. So, I paid too much for a basic timer. Disappointing. If it worked it likely would have been great.

The Art of Surviving
I purchased this book because I was intrigued by the description. How could four now elderly women, albeit Holocaust survivors,possibly rescue a man and a child from their Hamas kidnappers?? They did it by surviving - and prospering. All of them developed power positions in their post Auschwitz lives. And, they understood the value of this power. Additionally, the author presents the very complicated situation in the Middle East in a very unbiased manner. Unfortunately, I left the book on a plane before I finished it. I will buy it again!

The Worst Game Ever
I was excited when I got this game and couldnt wait to play it. It was a real disappointment to me.There are no fouls and the graphics are auful.The other team always wins no matter what you are.The computer throws you around and Its almost impossible to stop the computer on defense.The create a player feature is pointless.If you were a real sports fan,I dont think youd want people with monster heads. You can trade players or do anything with the rosters, and worst of all,Only two people are allowed out on the floor....

Depends on your laptop model...
I have a fujitsu E series laptop with Windows XP. The cardbus will only work with USB 1.1 peripherals.I bought an IOGEAR 2.5in USB 2.0 external hard drive enclosure and this hangs when connected via the card, sometimes spontaniously rebooting my pc.Writing to my new TDK USB 2.0 40x CDRW (via Roxio OR Easy CD Creator) also fails. Yes I've tried powering the cardbus (and the enclosure) to no avail. Iogear support was non responsive.Even after a clean install of XP (for other reasons) the problem with the ION persisted.Then tried the card with the same CDRW and Drive enclosure on my friends Dell Inspiron with XP - no problems!So you may be delighted or you may not.

The Best Product Out There!!!
I have to honestly say that I love this pillow. Anyone pregnant can tell how hard it is to sleep & get comfortable, but with this wedge I have slept a lot better. I actually purchased two, one for under my belly & the other one for my back. I use them both at the same time lying on my side...it provides great comfort while sleeping or just relaxing. If I am reading I also use them to lean on. I highly recommend this pillow & if you can get two, it's so worth every penny.

Total Resistance-Required Reading for Freedom Lovers
I received this book yesterday, and read it from cover to cover that afternoon.Major Von Dach published this book in 1958, but its tactical information is invaluable even today. The good Major covers the major aspects of both passive and active resistance to an invading force, and the information he provides will be useful against oppresive tyrants everywhere.I found this book to be well written, although there are a few mistakes in editing. The illustrations could have been drawn on a larger scale as well.In my opinion, this book is a valuable resource for any freedom loving individual anywhere in the world.

DO NOT PURCHASE AN IPOD FROM THIS SELLER!!!!!!!!!!
In March 2012 I purchased a classic 80gb ipod from this seller. I received the ipod in the beginning of March 2012,and after using the ipod about 5 times the ipod froze and a big red X appeared on May 15, 20012 (only about 2 months of having the ipod). I immediately went onto apple's website and followed the instructions to fix it. Unfortunately the red X still appeared. So I took my ipod to a ipod repair shop and I was told by them and apple that the hard drive was bad and the harddrive for this ipod is $99.00 plus labor for installing the hard drive. I am very upset and feel ripped off because I paid $119.00 for an ipod from this seller, only had it for 2 months and used it 5 times. I contacted the seller about 13 days ago and seller has not responded. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE A PRODUCT FROM THIS SELLER AGAIN. I have purchased tons of items from amazon's website and this is the 1st bad review haven't had to write.

product ok, customer service excellent
BareBones did a great job in accommodating me. The first pair of shoes had a defect, which I discovered after wearing them. Returned them for an exchange. They even reimbursed me for return shipping. However, upon receipt of the second pair, discovered the same defect. They don't make the shoes so I blame Timberland for that, but Barebones could have more closely scrutinized the second pair.In any case, overall, everyone I talked to was very professional and accommodating.

Connery wins, viewers loose with this Bond movie
Regardless of the PQ of this Blu-ray, avoid this movie totally. It's a complete rip-off of a real Bond masterpiece... Thunderball. Connery was paid 5 million to do this movie, and that was a smart decision on his part. However; this movie is nearly unwatchable. The only simple pleasure you get is seeing Connery play 007 one more time. Otherwise the storyline is dull, familiar, and dragging throughout. This movie is on my list of Bonds I will never buy on Blu-ray. Those include Moonraker, Diamonds are Forever, You only Live Twice, The World is not Enough, A View To a Kill, and of course NSNA.

BRIGHT BUT TOASTY!
Radiant heaters warm your body directly, but, keep in mind, this one is very bright. Place it slightly behind you, out of your line of sight. At night, you won't need any additional light in your room.It's very, very toasty, even on the "low" setting and absolutely quiet.I had to use an extension cord (not supposed to) so I used one desgined for a window air conditioner and the cord always feels cool to the touch. To be on the safe side, though, I unplug it when I"m not in the room.Very good value for the money but don't forget the "brightness" issue.

Unhelpful, irrelevant
If you studied for the GRE Physics test with this book you would probably do really bad.To be honest, the actual exam has very few involved calculations. Remember that you are not allowed to use a calculator, so all numbers tend to work out very nicely. The actual exam covers more concepts than really in depth problems.This book, however, deals with complicated problems. There are many differential equations that need to be solved, and then boundary conditions placed on the solutions. I have not seen this in any GRE practice exam or when I took the exam.The best test prep I can think of is to go through the practice exams and see what you know, what you need to review and then try it all again. Anything you get right twice, you can start skipping if you redo it a 3rd time. Make sure to keep time -- I just barely got through all 100 questions in the time given.

Wayyyyy too much!
Styx was named after the river that leads to Hades, the mythological Greek underworld. This may give you a clue as to how I feel about their music.Styx fancied themselves prog rockers. In the 70s, they released a handful of massively popular synthesizer-heavy singles that might have been tolerable on the radio, but no one needs two CDs worth of the many other pompous, sophomoric songs they produced in the 80s (Mr. Roboto, anyone?) which they continue to flog on endless tours with varying personnel.The lead vocals are dreadfully whiny and of uncertain pitch. This melodramatic caterwauling quickly grates on the nerves if one is masochistic enough to continue listening. Some may want to buy the CD "The Grand Illusion" (not a bad album) to help them relive their misspent youth, but they really should save their money for much more worthwhile music.Domo arigato, but no thanks!

Bad OCR job on the Kindle edition
At first when I was reading this book I'd every now and then stumble across a misplaced character. "Tom cat" became "torn cat", every now and then a parenthesis would sneak its way in, or a semicolon.Now that I'm about halfway through, it seems like one very other page I encounter at least one instance of incorrect characters.It seems to me that this book was converted to Kindle by means of optical character recognition (OCR). Whoever was reviewing the OCR job for mistakes wasn't very good in the first place, and it seems about halfway through he or she just gave up.Having to stop and unwind the mystery of the misplaced character is just terrible for immersion. It's also inexcusable in age when the publisher certainly possesses perfect digital copies of the text.

Then it started working ... Yeah.I week later is stop working again. I then reinstalled everything and it started working again.This week it stopped working again. I have reinstalled the drivers 5 or 6 time and it still doesn't work. $90 down the drain, and to be honest I loved the keyboard when it was working.

CD Quality
The quality of the CD I got was awful. It sounded like a pirated CD, the music was not clear - it's like being played from a tape. I can hardly hear the voices of the singers. The volume varies from one song to the other which made it hard for me to play it for my son on his sleep. I'm pretty sure it is not my player 'cause when I played the Baby Einstein CD I bought from Target, the music from that CD was crisp and clear.

A Very Cool Thing
This is a very cool thing for renting movies without having to deal with running back and forth with the "disc" or storing a binder full of stuff. We also often play selections from itunes music library while favorite photos cascade up the screen. Ours is plugged into an RJ45 wall jack so I can't speak to how the wireless features are yet. Music videos and you tube are also a snap to view. I'm certain there's much more to learn about it's cababilities but I'm very satisfied. My only gripe would be menus and/or instuctions could be a little easier to figure out.

One of the best books I've read in a long time
My fiance actually wanted me to read this book. When I started it, I was a little skeptical, but as I kept reading, I became more and more engrossed. The lessons in this book are ones that are by no means new, but everyone needs a subtle reminder now and then as to what really matters in our lives. I learned many things from this book, and I share many of Mr. Hartmann's opinions and views as expressed in this marvelous book. Everyone should read it, it might make for a better way of living, a personal transformation if you will...

Watch the South Park episode "The China Probrem"
All anyone ever needs to do to know what this movie is like, watch the episode of South Park called "The China Probrem" (episode number 175).To sum it up. "He was raped!"Poor Indiana Jones. We will never be able to look at him the same!

DePalma has lost it.
This was possibly the worst movie of 1998, save Godzilla. It's a story that somehow makes boxing, international intrigue, Las Vegas, and a hurricane immeasurably boring. The ending is laughable - this one's not even worth renting, in spite of the great cast (Cage, Sinise, etc.) Director DePalma tries some neat things (long initial take, bird's eye views of hotel rooms), but there's no point to any of them. Almost unwatchable.

Horrible! Canonical list of mistakes.
If you are new to this field, this book has plenty of mistakes to mislead you. This is the first MCSE book that I read and I am reluctant to take any of MCSE exams then until I have a chance to read my friend's MOC books. The questions are not set on the area that is likely to be examined. A good chance to test your technical proofreading skills, suitable for students studying technical writing. Thanks the publisher and author, I spare one whole year for other parts of my life coz of them!

Don't buy this!
this thermometer works great for a few months then suddenly conks out on you, for no reason. mine worked perfectly (and accurately) and then after being in storage for a few months, the LCD display suddenly won't work right. i used fresh batteries so i know that's not the problem. too bad, because it's relatively quick measurments made it double quite nicely as an instant-read thermometer. ugh! now i gotta find a new thermometer!

Eh.
Perhaps I was spoiled by reading J. Diamond's terrific "Guns, Germs and Steel" before this book, but I didn't find "A Short History" particularly compelling or noteworthy. First of all, the book is hardly a "short history of progress." In focusing solely and briefly on four ancient civilizations, Wright's book sorely lacks heft. Too many critical details and events in the evolution of Man are ignored. There is a boatload of facts regarding our progress over the centuries that simply is not reflected here. The result is akin to having all of one's dishes removed just as one is about to begin enjoying a large, bountiful feast. What we are left with is a rather shallow narrative that barely satisfies. Wright is a decent writer, but the time spent reading this book would be better spent checking out Diamond's work instead. You'll enjoy a far more provocative and complete examination of the same subject. This is history for Dummies - short, shallow and way over-simplified.

nope.
This is as low as I have ever rated a Bee Gees cd. This cd is definitely not him. I don't even think he would've released this if Maurice was still around. That aside, he did. Please is the only sensible song on this cd which earned him that 2 stars. The rest of the songs are modern style r&b junkies and the 2 remakes are just like, whoa, why?? I'm glad tho that he's still coming out with music, but it didn't work. Too many unkown guests that make it even worse. I'm still a Bee Gee fan forever though. Go get Main Course.

Did not live up to the hype
I had this book on my wishlist for several months before I took the plunge and spent nearly $20 on it. I wish I had not. This book feels like it was written by a high school girl after having read other paranormal romance novels. She offers no new ideas and as a matter of fact, uses Laurell K. Hamilton's 'ardeur' plot device by having one of the main characters 'heal' with sex. The characters are hollow and the author offers little to no character development.In addition, the editing is absolutely terrible. As a previous reviewer stated, I was itching for a red pen to correct my copy of this story.I would recommend either the first few Antita Blake novels by Laurell K. Hamilton or Mooncalled by Patricia Briggs. Those novels offer everything this one lacks, original plotlines and likeable characters with compelling stories.

A Very Happy Movie!
In a time when most movies have bad guys and scary plots, this is a gem that has a happy, non-scary theme. To my 3 year old, this is a BIG deal. She hates scary movies; The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, Cinderella, Peter Pan - all fall into that scary field for her. She likes only happy movies, and they are few and far between. Tinkerbell has quickly become a favorite for her and she loves loves loves all things fairy now. And from a grown up perspective, I love it, too.

Not recommended
Picked this title up for 1 cent thinking that maybe it might have something beneficial to my poker game. Boy was I wrong. Play is painfully slow. The chatter by the other players is totally annoying and painfully repetitive. No information about odds or card statistics is provided. There is absolutely nothing to recommend this title. I bet Howard Lederer doesn't play this junk. My guess is he took the money and ran...really fast and really far away and with his primary involvement being having his photo taken for the front of the box and cashing the check...

Believe the bad reviews
I am not going to extoll the virtues of a mandoline. I have a couple and they are very useful. However, the Hoffritz product is poorly constructed.The most important elements of a mandoline are a sharp blade and firm, even cutting surface. The cutting blade used for this item can not be removed for sharpening and it is made of flimsy, cheap steel that could not be sharpened even if it were accessible.In addition, you need a firm surface so that you get even cuts as you push food through the blade. Again, the Hoffritz fails here. The slicing surface "bows" easily, making for uneven slices.You don't have to spend hundreds of dollars to get a good mandoline, but there are far better low cost options that this item.

YUCK
I love Wen Lavendar cleansing conditioner but the Fig is just DISGUSTING. I abhor the smell! It makes me want to vomit. It also made my hair greasier than the other Wen products.

Pot-porri of British Military Bands
This CD is a pot-porri collection of older Bandleader recordings that have been combined together. Sadly many of these recordings are out of print, so the listener has a limited opportunty to hear these bands here. Since most of these recordings are from records and CD from the late 80s and early 90s the size and diversity of the bands are greater than what remains today in the British army. That being said, I still don't like collections, preferring the original myself. But at least the bands are identified, and the selection of music is pretty good. A nice mix of concert music and marches, with some percussian and corps of drum music thrown in. This CD should deffinitely give the listener a good impression of what was the size and diversity of British military bands.

The dolls are cute but a little cheap looking. They will do the job for now until I can find something a little nicer. Great for the price!

Needs help.
I am in total agreement that Fisher Price Power Wheels is "sexist" as put by another reviewer above. These are much too slow, even for the most timid little girl! We took ours back and got our 3-year-old the Kawasaki for boys. It is sooo much better and I wish they would wake up and read these reviews and do something about it. I'd love to spend whatever to get my little girl a quad ride on that lets her keep up with her older brother on his! It's obvious a change should be made after reading all these reviews! Come on Fisher Price!

DO NOT BUY - What you see is not what you get.
I purchased two of these cork boards for the office in my new new home and what I received was something completely different than what was pictured. What I received was an average bulletin board that I could go out to a myriad of local businesses to buy. It was not surrounded by carved wood and painted antique white as pictured by it was surrounded by cheap upainted wood like every other cork board out there. I think someone messed up when they uploaded this picture for this product number.

Save your Dough
I recieved this radio a few days ago and at first thought it was worth the price. If you try to raise the sound any higher than half volume it starts to sound scratchy. You have to move the radio around a bit to get a good reception, and the anntenna is annoying just hanging their like a piece of loose string on a shirt. I accidently dropped the radio from a hight of 2 feet, then I had to say "Goodbye to my $50 investment. Piece of junk. It should be able to withstand a drop test of about 3 feet, at least. Save your money folks.

Wish it would work! Defective item received 2 times!
This item was a gift to be used at our family holiday festivities. We put it together it sounded and looked great, but the CD player was defective. Contacted Amazon on Christmas Day, a new one was shipped. CD player was defective yet again. Now we are waiting for a new one. Both times I communicated that the shipping packaging may be the problem. I recommend this machine, but buy it from a store, not Amazon. I just wish there was someone in my area that sold it!!
