| Mediocre | Don't let the hype fool you, this album is hardly anything new. Much of it is repetitive and deals with the same topic (love... yawn...) Although you're probobly just buying this because your 13 year old daughter begged you to get it, I recommend you buy some ear plugs with your order this album is: loud, obnoxiously refined (ambience is way too high,) and the vocals are really high pitched... The dirty conotation of the title disgusts me, and the amount of play from songs like 'first date' and 'the rock show' on the radio vexes me. Buy your teen a book instead... |

| Before the Season Ends | I very much enjoyed reading this book. I never got bored or lost interest. There was a little mystery, a little scandal, a little intrigue and romance. You fall in love with the characters and become immersed in the culture of the regency era. This book makes me want to go to a ball and deepen my Christian faith. I also liked the glossary and discussion questions at the end of the book. I wish there were many more books like this! |

| Great All-Outdoors Bag | I got into Mtn. Biking this year and wanted a pack to carry all my essentials plus hydration while on the trail. I looked at different models but always kept coming back to the M.U.L.E - this pack's got the best combination of features I've seen in similar mtn. biking/hiking packs. The 3L bladder is more than enough for several hours of outdoor activity. When I buy packs/bags of any type I always look for sturdy construction on the straps/handles. The straps of the MULE are nice and wide so they feel comfortable even when the bag is fully loaded. Double zippers (except for the pocket that holds the bladder in the back) and waterproof tabs that cover the zippers similar to those found in technical jackets give you piece of mind the water won't go into the bag. The iPod/small electronics pocket in the top has a waterproof zipper. Overall, this pack is solid for any outdoor sport you take it on... |

| The Absolute Best | This CD is my favorite our of all the many CD's i own. I can't say enough good things about it to express how much i love it! I bought it in July and throughout that month, everyday, that was the only CD i listened to. Even now in November, I am still listening to it constantly because whenever I have time to listen to music, I will always listen to this disc countless of times before I move onto a next. The lead singers voice is amazing and the back-up music is great with lots of variation. You are able to emotionally feel things through their music and their music is REAL, unlike most of the pre-fabricated music out there. It's not "pop" or a fad that's going to come and go, their music is timeless and I will always love this disc! |

| Best thing since slice bread... | I would've given it 5 stars if it wasn't for the fact that these little mp3's are so easily lost (I'm currently on my 5th one!). Aside from that it's awesome. You can clip it just about anywhere on your clothes. The sound quality is great. Easy to operate for those individuals who are not technically savvy (think grandma). I dare say that you will not find a better workout mp3.There are other negative qualities that might turn some people off. Not being able to select specific songs means that you will be clicking the forward button god knows how many times before you find it, constantly having to sync with itunes to get your playlists into it, given the mood your in (unless of course you like having Metallica followed by Barry Manillow) and like I said earlier "honey, have you seen my shuffle?"...lolAll in all good value, you can't go wrong with this. |

| Buying for 2nd time!! | After 5 years of the 1st warm & toasty, I'm buying my 2nd! We use this all the time. I make chicken even whole chicken, fish, meatloaf, baked potatoes, veggies, you name it. I love it and the 1st served me well. We don't make popcorn but it seems it IS truly the most used appliance in the kitchen. After further research, it seems this is the ONLY one of its kind manufactured. My husband would like quicker toast so I'll get him a 2 slide toaster but despite all the negatives I've read from other sites, this site had the most positive, I KNOW it is a great little appliance. My 96 yr young mother uses it exclusively and I too wondered if hers stopped working, how will I find another to replace it. Glad to know they are still making it. I am getting another in the next few days with hope that it too will last another 5 years. |

| "Teach them the hard truth while they are young" | This book is considered a classic, but after reading it as an adult I can see the real message behind the story. Goldie Locks strolls trough the woods and comes across your the bear house. She then proceeds to break into your home, use your stuff, eat your food, and pass out in your bed. Then, when the bears come home and catch her asleep, mother bear (who looks like Mammie from "Gone With The Wind") tells her she can come back any time she feels like it. In a nutshell this is a children's version of actual events involving Nordic European settlers who roll in and claim everything as theirs. The only thing missing from this story is rape and smallpox. Aside from the historical resemblence, do you really want your children to think it's ok to roam into your neighbors house while they are out? If so, I would hate to be on the recieving end of a phone call from your neighbor or the police. |

| Great Kids Video | Our 3 year-old cant get enough of this movie! It's humorous for 3 year olds and parents with a good lesson. Hermie is an unfulfilled catepillar who wants to be anyone but himself. He's too ordinary and plain. He's regularly complains to God that He made him too ordinary, especially in light of all of the other insects that have interesting and unique abilities. God's response is that He is not finished with him yet. Well, the story has a great ending when he transforms into a butterfly. He finally understands and trusts. The story is inspired by Max Lucado's writings and Tim Conway and Don Knotts deliver the voices. Great Stuff! Wish there was another one. |

| Nice organization help | You have to mount these in just the right spot so that they don't hit shelves or items inside the cabinet, which is why I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5. They feel kind of like they might break in a couple of years also HOWEVER I love how they work though and hope they last. They accept most spice bottles and hold them firmly. |

| Good Band Just not True grass | I saw this band in concert opening up for George Jones last year and I rushed out and bought the cd only to be disappointed. On their cd they don't play the same energetic truegrass that they did in their show. I reccomend buying one of their older albums instead of this one. This Album is far too watered down for a true bluegrass fan's taste. |

| Too trite to be useful | Part of the blurb on the back of this book states, "expectant fathers will discover the joys and expectations God has for those who trust in Him." But it contains precious few insights of a spiritual nature, and the advice it does contain doesn't go far beyond the obvious. There simply isn't much meat here for men expecting their first child. There has got to be a book aimed at the expectant father who is a Christian which is better than this. A big disappointment. |

| Disappointing & Leaves you Hanging | I have just started watching the AfterDark movies, and except for "Tooth and Nail", I have been far from disappointed. Until now. Like most of the reviews said, it just left me hanging. Not very well developed. It has GREAT potential to be a thriller if only the plot would have gone somewhere. I was left wondering why the girl wanted to kill them -- if it really was them; or was everything in their head? Was it all just part of the experiments? I like movies that make me think, but I like a little something to back up my thoughts. I feel like these ideas I'm just pulling out of thin air because the movie doesn't give much for you to think on....WAY too open-ended |

| Great, with one mistake | Like the other reviewer said, this is a great 1 disc distillation of The 2 CD "Cup of Loneliness" compilation that also adds "She Thinks I Still Care" from the United Artists period. If you want more than this get "Cup of Loneliness" and The Razor and Tie "She Thinks I still Care". For some reason, both this and the other Mercury compilation substitute a rerecording of "Why Baby Why". I don't know why since they use the orginals of a couple other Starday recordings. Anyway, if you want the original version, which I think is better, you'll find it on Columbia's Spirit of Country, and probably a 100 other compilations. |

| One hit wonder | Ummm yeah... that one song you hear all over on the radio is the only good song on the whole cd. Not what I expected. I have owned this cd for a while now and tried a number of times to listen to it, but I can't get past the second song without hitting the next track button a few times and then the eject button. Most bands have one or two ballad type slow songs for the females, but that is all this cd is. It's like the cd was written for the top 40. They probably figured if they release a whole cd of alternative-slow songs at least one will be a big hit and get played over and over again. Don't expect more than the same type of songs repeated on this cd. I am not saying this is the worst cd I have ever heard, but there are a lot better out there. Save yourself the money and just buy the single. I don't expecet to hear much of this band after this cd wears out. |

| So....you like war movies? | grand illusion is so well known that is almost not worthy to comment on it other than it is the best war/antiwar film of all time bar none, and is also very funny. it has been copied by the great escape, stalag 17, paths of glory, just to name a few. so if you haven' t seen this; it is essential. if you have, you know exactly what i am talking about."quite frankly, i find the theatre is much to deep for me....i prefer bicycling" |

| Great product-love it! | Ok, well I have owned two second generation shuffles in my life. They are great! They are esspecially great for people who don't care about video or photos and/or don't have a huge music library. It is shockingly easy to use without a screen, and is the most portable thing I own. Not only only that, but it is sleek, and beautifuly desinged. It is made of anodized aluminum if you don't already know. This is a highly durable and easy to use product.PROS:small and protablebuilt in clipsleek, nice lookingmost easiest mp3 player to use\CONS:aluminum is a soft metal, and gets scratched fairly easily. But don't let that discourage you! All electronics are easily scratched. If you protect your ipod with a case of some sort, there will for sur be no scratches on your shuffle. I have owned my present shuffle for a few months, but it hasn't gotten scratched at all because of a silicone case I put on it. |

| Great for asian lashes! | I was never a fan of using mascara because they never did anything to my lashes. My lashes stick straight down, very short and sparse, but this mascara hold my lashes curled all day! It can be a bit clumpy if you use too much, try using mascara that helps separate your lashes, then on top, use this mascara and you'll get perfect lashes! :) |

| don't read this if you can't handle multiple sides of complex topics | I came on-line today, looking to purchase 50 copies of this book. We use it as a supplement in the second year of the discipleship program we run at our church (based on a 21-month curriculum I co-wrote). I couldn't believe that the reviews are only averaging 1.5 stars-- and had to write a review (my first). A low rating for this book is patently absurd. This book is AWESOME for looking at the two or more "sides" of various topics within the pale of Christian orthodoxy. If you're looking for an objective account of how "good people have disagreed"-- now and in the past, then you've come across an unmatched resource. If you insist on dogmatically holding to a single view on these complex topics, this book will frustrate you. Unfortunately, that is a reflection of your legalism/dogmatism, not an underlying flaw in the book. |

| Wonderful | This is such a great season. Not sure I was going to like it after seeing David play the doctor for so long. But it's wonderful. However the inner packaging of this box set was crap. Basically plastic CDs cases taped together to resemble a book. The same way with six too. |

| Great Product but Scope for Improvement | Getting access to good tasting and pure water while in college can be hard sometimes. This Brita filter is everything a filter should be. It makes water taste great, has a nice electronic timer and a cool rubber grip. The only problem is that when you fill it with water and pour it without it being entirely filtered, it spills. It would've been better if one could get the filtered water instantly. This product keeps me hydrated and has taught me patience. |

| Is this the best Fundamentalists can do? | As a soon-to-be Catholic, I need to see if Catholic beliefs can withstand all sorts of "Biblical" attacks.Firstly, this book presents nothing new. It just repeats the same rhetoric Protestants have been using for 500 years. This book also does not respond to the Catholic counter-arguments and defenses. Why? Because it can't.All it does is state a Catholic doctrine, then patch together a few out-of context verses to try to disprove it. It also is full of false assumptions, like;*The Bible says you are saved by faith. Therefore you are saved by faith ALONE.It tries to give Catholics more reasons not to believe something rather than take away the reasons they do believe in it. I don't have room in this review to defend every doctrine, because that would be 37 examples. This book is either horribly written or Protestantism just has a really weak foundation. |

| It was really good | I really enjoyed this book, but I wouldn't say it was my favorite.It left curious of what was going to happen, and it was very interesting, and well written.I thought it was a good ending, even though I was kind of thinking, "that's it?" And it kind of left me with unanswered questions--but the ending was a good message.I personally like the "Canadian West" book series by Janette Oke better, but overall, this was good. |

| The Greek is poorly done! | I bought my "Greek" concert DVD+CD here at Amazon.com. I watched it yesterday for the first time and listened to the CD. This concert is so poor it's hard to believe that a slew of professionals had any hand in it. Josh Groban's voice IS nasal and poor in a few of the songs. The camera work is sloppy and visually poor. While it may be a terrific keepsale for those who attended his concerts, it isn't for me. I have all the CD's and the first concert Groban did. Those are worth keeping and I listen to them often. This is going back as soon as I can get to the post office. |

| awesome | to all those people that have posted reviews insulting this band and their CDs, all I have to tell you is that it is YOU who doesn't know what good music is... Bandana may be not the type of music that you prefer, but that doesn't mean everybody thinks the same... to people that want an useful review on this product, I can tell you that it is worth it. This is the best CD Bandana has ever recorded....and to that person that wrote "argentina, spit the flag" all i have to tell you is to grow up a little. it hurts to see someone write something like that about my own country. it is one of the lowest things you could do. |

| Comfy | I go to hockey rinks all year long and wanted to try a warm comfortable seat. I purchased Lava Buns and found the solution without spending alot of money. It is made with quality material and sewn well. It is easy to carry with a handle and easy to heat up.The instructions read to heat inner bag in micro 3 min. on each side. It depends on your wattage in your micro. It started making a popping noise when I got over 2 mins., so to be safe I heated it for 2 mins. on each side. It was enough and I was comfy thoughout the game. I purchashed 3 more for my husband , son, and daughter-in-law. They have yet to use them, but I know they will be happy with the Lava Buns. |

| I'm so confused | What happened??? I'd finished in about 30 minutes and it was really unsatisfying. The first bit was brilliant but it just went downhill from there!! I mean I still can't figure out whether he was crazy or not. It was a promising story line but the book was just not that good. I don't recommend it. The only reason I gave it 2 stars was because Avi is an excellent author. |

| Miss Spindler's Work Leaves Much to be Desired | Shocking Pink, although it kept my attention, reads like a cheesy murder mystery. The book in itself was not too bad, and the plot could've worked. However, this writer is not ready for the big time, I suggest she tries again. |

| Buck is worth the buck | I ain't a G-Unit fan, I ain't big on Southern Hip Hop, I don't even really like Young Buck like that, but damn, that CD is hot. As someone mentioned in another review, the production on this CD is good enough of a reason to buy the Album.Young Buck style is a good blend between G-Unit gangsta gangsta and the southern slower and more melodic sound. This is good music to bump in your chevy with the top off during dem hot sunny days. There's a few skippers, but mostly good music. |

| Sorry, I had to "Let Go" | Josh Groban didn't "Raise me Up" and my spirits were so dampened I can "Remember When It Rained" and became very sad. I'm happy I live in "America" and "Believe" that even "Caruso" had a bad day. I don't think they recorded him when he was at his worse, they way they did Josh Groban at the Greek. Although I am disheartened, I won't slash off my ear the way "Vincent" Van Gogh did. Josh, "You Raise Me Up" with your beautiful music, but this time, I had to let go. |

| I won't take off my pants for this album | I would rather listen to this album than Britney Spears, Christina Agulaira, Avril Lavigne etc. any day of the week, but Blink 182 are sold out, and I think they made this album to please MTV. They don't care about making punk music anymore, they just want to make money, and I don't blame them, but that's what this album is. And the problem is, once you're mainstream, there's no going back. I'm sure at least 8/10 of you who like this album also like pop music, music that gets lots of radio play. If you want some 'real' Blink 182, buy Budha and Cheshire Cat, which are good punk albums, or Dude Ranch, a great pop-punk album.R.I.P. Blink 182 |

| Ugh | I pretty much HATE this thing. The flap over the spout sticks shut. When you get it unstuck, the entire lid comes off. I've probably spilled more water out of this thing than I've been able to drink. Also, the "timer" seems to measure TIME only as opposed to volume. So it's really useless for a single person who doesn't go through a lot of water as the filter is still good long after the timer says to change the filter. I really wish I had returned it. |

| Very little to enjoy in "Greek" | I won't be keeping my "Live at the Greek" DVD and Cd. I saw the DVD for the first time yesterday, when I played it for friends visiting for Christmas. A couple of friends who also like Groban remarked immediately on how different he sounded and looked. It was so bad that I turned it off after the first few minutes. Whatever Josh Groban is doing or not doing to have such a bad effect on his voice, should be stopped. The only reason why I gave it 2 stars is because he wasn't completely awful. (I would give that to people like Britney Spears if I wanted to waste my time). Regardless, I'm not keeping it. |

| Not impressed, not as advertised. Simple vehicle to do, and failed. | I paid a premium price for these floor mats, and I am not at all impressed.1. No hole for the factory anti-skid hook2. No "spikes" on the bottom to keep them in place3. Color is totally off4. fit is just barely close (ordered custom fit floor mats)I paid over $100 for these floor mats and expected much better. I am totally unimpressed by these extremely expensive floor mats. Take a look at the list above and you can see why. I really feel ripped off. My worn out mats stayed in place when you entered/exited the vehicle, even when you vacuumed. Not these, they don't even sit flat, let alone fit the floor pans.These are thick floor mats, they appear well made. That's it. Should you want to put them at your front door I'm sure you will get compliments. Not in my Eddie Bauer Explorer. Not even close. Live and learn. |

| Disappointing | I'm a big fan of Mary Jo Putney, having most recently finished the China Bride (which I heartily recommend), but this book seems contrived to me. There are so many plot devices: kidnapping, slavery, frigidity, surprise pregnancy (not giving much away, most of this is on the flyleaf) that the characters have to work hard to move the story ahead. Usually her work is so finely textured and the characters richly defined, but this work seemed shallow. Read it, but buy it used...! |

| Has held up | I've had this watch for about 3 years now, and it made it through some tough times. I even wore it on a trip to South Africa where monkeys spent weeks on end pulling and chewing on it as I worked there. My only complaint is that the buttons can be hard to press sometimes. Otherwise this is a great watch for the price. It's nothing fancy, but is comfortable enough, and has plenty of features for every day use. |

| Does Not Filter Anything! | I've been using the Brita water filter pitcher for almost a year now--since we moved into our new home with well water that tested high for nitrates. I recently got an under-the-sink filtration system, and I went ahead and ordered a TDS meter.Our well water from the faucet tested at 440 PPM.The well water that was filtered from the Brita pitcher with new filter tested at 420 PPM.Since we went ahead and installed our under-the-sink system, our water from that system tests at a mere 40 PPM.Don't waste your money purchasing this $30 filter pitcher with $20 refills of filters. If you seriously want clean water, choose something else. |

| Overall, some really great music | I didn't like this album at first. A couple songs were a bit too mellow for my tastes, but the more I listen to it, the more I like it. Collett has an incredible voice that is perfect for these melodic folk/rock ballads. Some of my favorite Collett songs still come from his Idols of Exile album, but songs like "Bitter Beauty" and "Lucky Star," both more upbeat, come pretty close. "Gabe" and "Stormy Woman Salty Girl" are great soulful ballads. |

| Excellent | I am very fond of all Blink 182 and I have been a fan since Chesire Cat. The main thing that upsets me about this album is the bonus tracks there are three differnet CD's and they have differnet bonus tracks. I bought the green one and a friend of mine has the red. This to me is very sucky of Blink to do. Other than that every song on this album is great. Especially Anthem part two. |

| not what i wanted | The coconut hut has a very small whole that most crabs won't fit through and its too hard to cut. The background is rolled up so its hard to put in place, you'll have to put it under a heavy book or something and they only give you two, tiny velcros to attach it with. The sand is smaller than what is pictured, its not colored either. The replacement shells are worthless, they are so tiny only very small crabs could use them, smaller than any i've ever seen for sale. The food is okay, feeding shells are nice size. the sponge is very small they cut it instead of giving you a naturally formed sponge. |

| Maybe Not What They Were, But They Are Better | Many people think that Blink 182 Lost there touch with the song : All The Small Things. But personaly i carnt stand there earlyer albums, i think theyve refined there punk rock into a Style that more people like in stead of the racket they made before. NO i dont like pop music but i dont like noies either, so if you like Blink 182 Because of Enama of The State i REALY Recomend this album to all. Grate tunes, (Singing in tune) and some Arsome Drums. =[ Linkin Park, Sum 41, Blink 182, Rule!! ]= |

| Incompetent Author | The section on the Herschel wedge or solar prism immediately informed me that the author was totally misinformed about it's use and level of safety. He obviously has never read the correct instructions for using one, much less actually used one as he does not even mention use of the ND3 filter that is always used with such a device. I find this inexcuseable in an author writing a book about solar observation.His "not safe" conclusion is correct if anyone tried to follow his use instructions as they are totally wrong. A very good English language manual on how to safely use a Herschel wedge or solar prism is available from the Baader Planetarium web site in Germany as a PDF file. |

Not only a great entertaining book but an educational one -- I learned many new words and customs of the Regent time period in such an enjoyable way! Am looking forward to the next book! |

| My son likes this toy | My parents bought this toy, as they watch my 11-month-old son three days a week, along with his 1-year-old cousin two days a week. My son likes it. It is kind of annoying, but I think many toys can be to some people. It has things like "find the kitten" or "find the number 3" or whatever. So, it is educational as well. I have had better toys, but this one does seem to entertain my son, as they usually have it out for him to play with. |

| Helpful while reading the novel. | "Spark Notes And Then There Were None" is great in conjunction with the novel "And Then There Were None." Although you don't get the full sense of the story, it helps with the symbolism and small details you might have missed. As always, you should read the Spark Notes AFTER you read "And Then There Were None." I recommend. |

| great album | Take off Your Pants and Jacket is another magnificent cd following their massive success with Enema of the State. It contains 13 other blinky songs if you're into Popy punk rock music. Definitely a great cd to own. |

| Blllllllllllllllah | This cd was no that good. I didn't care for it Its only about 4-5 good songs and they aren't that good. I really gettired of Cash Money using the same lyrics and now Mannie Fresh beats are getting old. They are turning me off of that Cash Money style |

| Yawn... | HRH fans - stay away! This is a very, very poor book, with no additional revelations about The Man. This is an exercise in fawning. Skip it, and wait for the HRH movies that rumor has in development at several Hollywood studios. |

| Works Great | The Brita is exactly what you want it to be. A good sized filtering pitcher that supplies nice tasting water for all your needs. I use it for tea, coffee, and ice cubes. |

| traci | i'm a big traci lords-fan (not of her porns) and so i bought this dvd, because i was lucky that there was a new movie starring her. the idea of the movie was not so bad, but the movie for itself was a little bit boring. also i think that some brutal scenes were cut. on this dvd were trailers from the other 7 films from the after dark horrorfest, and i think, those films are better. especially borderland, where i also bought the dvd.the first star from my rating is for a new traci-film, and the second star is therefore, that she plays almost a leading role! |

| Inadequate at best | I bought this dictionary rather rashly as it was the only one left on the shelf at my campus bookstore. Needless to say I will be returning it as soon as I get an opportunity. Smallness being the only meritorious feature, the very first entry I sought a definition for was, to my amazement, not there; and neither were the other two words I looked up after. I borrowed the HarperCollins Latin Concise Dictionary from the library and it too was rather disappointing though it contains 60,000 more entries than the Pocket OLD. |

| A Blend Of Pop-Rock and...Pop | Anyone who has heard both Enema of the State and Take Off Your Pants and Jacket knows TOYPAJ is probably the better of the two. This album is by far not punk but hard pop. It's quite a bit better than EOTS. Songs like "Stay Together For The Kids" and "Anthem Pt.2" have the more "rockier" feel to them while the first single "Rock Show" and "First Date" have more of a poppy sound. My suggestion is if you like their pop-rock, go for this. If you want a harder Blink then by Dude Ranch (in my opinion it's the best). |

| Beets and 23s abound | This is the novel I usually use to introduce friends to Tom Robbins. It exemplifies his storytelling abilities and entertains from cover to cover. Several stories interweave throughout the novel, coming together at the end for a fantastic finish. Robbins is the master of metaphor, and I enjoy reading and re-reading all of his books. The only thing I don't like about Tom Robbins is that he only puts out a book every five years or so. |

| Very disappointed.... | that's that I was when I heard this record. Even in concert, Lucinda just seems like such a drag anymore. I know, her mom died recently, but this whole record is such a downer, and her voice just drones on and on and on.Give me Lucinda's self titled CD any day over her last 2 records... |

| Fun but.......... | ....it's a little weak. Lonely Guy and "Happy holidays" are good but the rest of the CD is 30 year olds whining about high school angst. Grow up, it gets old. Listen to Antiflag, Nofx or Bad Religion. |

| Kicking Through The Glass Ceiling | As a young Filipino-American pursuing a career in higher education, I enjoyed reading Shattering the Myths. According to the data shown, women have clearly moved forward in attaining undergraduate and graduate degrees but continue to be underrepresented and underpaid in many career fields. Why must women follow male-dominated standards to gain equal status? Our reference point for business practice revolves around a male-centered referent. Changes must occur in our entire world of operation in order for women to attain economic and social justice. Collectively society can reinvent current organizational models of leadership. In the new model, "tokenism" must be discarded as the organization moves toward a deep commitment to and an appreciation for a woman's assets and her personal contributions. |

| An oppressive reading experience | I found this book oppressive -- there were times when I couldn't bring myself to pick it up, yet I couldn't abandon it. I have had this book for over 10 years and am not sure why I decided to read it now. I am so disappointed. It is not well-organized, the narrative bounces around too much, ALL of the characters are horrible and completely unlikeable. I have a feeling that it will be one of the books I always remember, so I cannot completely deny its power, but I do not think it deserves the praise it has gotten. I would not recommend this book to anyone. |

| music for the soul | it's been a while since i've heard lyrics and guitar riffs that have uplifted me with such grace and power as "No Name Face." You'll notice that a lot of these reviews use the word "uplift"...and there's simply no better way to describe the experience. Jason Wade's voice is mesmerizing--almost surreal--and it completely embraces you. Like Creed, the group has Christian undertones...and yet the lyrics are multidimensional enough to be relevant to anyone who listens, whether or not they're a believer. As for my favorite track: "Everything" breaks the heart. The first 4 minutes are slow and soothing...and then *BOOM!!* you're hit with a TIDAL WAVE of raw emotion. Jason's voice brings tears to the eyes. You have to hear it to believe it. |

| Interesting insight to women and food | This book offers a personal glimpse into women's lives and their life with food and other women. With a personal touch, Lela Nargi's writing puts the reader into the subject's lives and gives a tantilizing view of who cooks, why they cook, and why they cook WHAT they cook. The recipes are an added bonus, giving the reader another way to relate to the women they have just read about, and making the experience more fulfilling than just a book about women and food.The stories are delightfully varied in terms of culture, tone and food, and give some new ideas on celebrating with food. I myself want to have a "perfect meal" party, and can only hope that it's as good as the one in "Around the Table". An excellent, quick read, and a great book to add to your collection, if you enjoy food and reading about foodies. |

| Deceptive title. | I purchased this title to have access to the audio portion. The price for the KJV is a great price given the fact it is both English and Spanish, however the main reason I made the purchase was for the audio part. The link to the free audio turned out to be computer read audio. If I had known this, I would not have bought the kindle book. If you want audio bibringeding by a person, don't spend your money on this one. |

| AWSOME | For those of you that don't like the c.d., listen to it again!! I bought it and loved it! I'm pretty sure most of you didn't know that a few years ago LIFEHOUSE was a Christian band called BLYSS! They were my favorite band back then. I even got to meet the group; everyone of them! Also, Jason Wade is a true Christian, and so am I!! Anyways, my advise is: BUY IT!!! |

| Lump of beeSh@t... | This album is a piece of Sh@t. I generally like throwback groups, but THE Hives blow. Listen to a band like the Vibrators...they did it much better and they did it 20 years ago. I want my money back. |

| Horrible Lives | I read this book after seeing Malika on Oprah. I am not a book club reader, but received this from my son(8 years old) for Mother's Day. It was hard to get into this book at first, and it is very jumbled as it is told directly to a woman from Malika. It is obvious she is recalling experiences that were extremely painful. This has made me realize that we are very fortunate individuals in America, we live lives of freedom. I cannot imagine life as it was for the Oufkir family. They had stolen years, decades to make up for. What a tragedy, and horror to live with forever. I will pass this book along as it made me appreciate many little things I have taken for granted. It is a great book, horrible lives. |

| SBC Executive Series Phone | I am a remote associate for a firm and so I need a high quality phone. This phone is okay, but the speaker volume does not get high, you get a lot of interference in the speaker. The headset volume is not very good either and makes it difficult to hear. The caller ID also record out of town calls but when you hit redial they error out because you have to push one first. Kind of annoying, invest dollars in a better product. |

| Breaks easily | This is the second replacement I've had to order for this coffee maker. The first broke when I hit the side of the sink while cleaning. The second broke when I was cleaning it with a long-handled brush. It never should have broken so easily. Do they not expect me to clean it? Jeez! |

| I thought I was alone! | I bought Josh Groban's "Live at the Greek" DVD and was shocked also at the degradation of his voice. I thought I was the only one who heard it, but then I came here and read the reviews.I hope Josh can recover and get the beautiful quality back. What he really needs is a smaller indoor theater for his concerts AND to never film the ones outdoors again. I think he is affected by the outdoor changes too much because it definitely affects his voice.I didn't enjoy the concert because of this. Also, this concert wasn't really for "Closer" as it was constantly advertised on TV. There were a lot of songs from his first concert. And I loved the first one too. It was wonderful and I enjoyed every minute of it. It was stunning. But Josh really needs to take a look back and PLEASE not do this again. |

| Good for the methematically oriented | Lets face it... probability theory is based on a lot of math that one does not see in the introductory level math classes at college. This book explains a lot of the more difficult stuff well. I am not one for doing the problems at the end of the chapter. For a general overview, I found this book to be good. Not great, but good. It did most of the concept explaining through examples, and as an engineer, that suited me fine. Disclaimer - don't buy this if you don't like looking at a long formula, you will simply end up hating it. |

| Not Good At All | I am a huge fan of ICP, Twiztid, Esham and Blaze but this album was horrible. I think Jumpsteady is not a good rapper at all. I can't even listen to this. The only good song is Ninjas in Action because it has everyone rapping on it. For big ICP fans I recommend this to your collection but to the average listener save your money. |

| 4 stars is pushing it, but it's not worth 3. | "A Bride For Donnigan" was one of the better books by Janette Oke, and started out very interesting. But, there are some hills of good and bad. First off, I found everything too perfect and sugar coated. What are the odds of Donnigan and Kathleen getting along? Much less, falling in love? It might happen, but it would take time. Which leads me into how Oke didn't express how much time goes by, nor the age of Donnigan. We don't know much of anything about Donnigan. Towards the end, the total point of this book was gone. I was hoping for more about their marriage, and the trials and tribulations of it. I did enjoy the characters, nonetheless, and did care about their outcome, but Donnigan seems too good to be true. I'm also glad that a book was finally written about this subject, even if it was just a storybook romance. It still doesn't beat "Roses For Mama," but is good all the same. I recommend. |
