| i suppose my neighbors gonna like it | Alright, as we all know...Blink started out with Chesire..this sounds nothing like Chesire. It sounds like something any teenager would listen to weather your a pop fan or a punker(even if you dont want to admit it) Im sure there is a song for everyone on this cd. I personally love Anthem Part 2 even though it really doesnt have anything to do with Anthem. I bet a lot of people are gonna buy this cd and then want to go back and buy Dude Ranch or Chesire Cat, but lemme warn you. This cd sounds nothing like those classics. |

| You too??? | Look at all the flags and all the banners waving. They will open up their arms and you can come on in, a magic kingdom waits for you! This is average stuff really.For a real piece of 'Celtica' go up to search and type in, DONT STAND ME DOWN. I can understand why you might like this but really to me its no diffrent from say Simple Minds. An average record from an average band. The people who say that they sold out however are wrong. |

| Terribly Disappointed! | What a rip off. I bought the Infinity Upright Vacuum Cleaner with Pet Care System about six months ago. No problems at all for the first 2 months, but about a month later my husband had to take the Infinity to the repair stop to have it unclogged. Did I mention that only the sleeping quarters of the home has carpeting, and that we have no pets? So what's with the Infinity clogging so fast? What a waste of my money and a total disappointment. I guess it just goes to show you that you can't judge a book by it's pretty little cover now can you? Again, a waste of money and a waste of time! |

| The New Hinsons! | This CD is not the one I have, I have The New Hinsons Live from Nashville, TN. It's a LIVE CD! The Hinsons did a concert at my Church, and I got to meet them! :-) My CD is autographed by all 3 of them. If you want some gospel music buy their CD! They're good. xoxoxox! |

| If you want to find automatic doors... | If you want to find automatic doors and automatic doors only, please buy this product. I got my radar detector today and decided to give it a test tonight, and well besides finding every store with doors I didn't have to touch, it found itself right on my list of worthless plastic. I took it through some country towns and some interstate and when I saw some speed traps, i didn't even get a blip on the machine. Then, on my return trip, I set my cruise to about 13 over to get myself home, watching the detector and praying for one little flash or beep, but magically the highy patrol lights filled the background of my car, and the radar DETECTOR did not even DETECT the RADAR when it was parked 10 FEET behind me. Do yourself a favor, don't waste your money. |

| Brilliant! | When I first tried this stuff, I really didn't expect what happened. You immediately feel calm, and slightly happy, but, although it tastes very much like alcohol, not at all drunk. You experience almost drowsiness, and it's great,Much recommended, and it really works. |

| Good feeling from good entertainment | As one of the many positive 80's movies, this rates at the top because of the interesting storyline, great combination of acting, memorable soundtrack and well exicuted cinematography. It is likely to appeal to those who are romantic at heart, but also holds a place for teens learning to deal with their weird parents and the rigours of school life. I have worn out one video copy, just a shame it isn't available in PAL format anymore. |

| If you like Don, this CD is a winner... | Good price, lots of songs, covering just about his entire recording career---what's not to love? Not every song is compelling, but the smooth voice and good taste Don always offered his fans is always present. I like the second half of this better than the earlier songs, but it's OK to disagree with me. Peter Durward Harris of Great Britain, an earlier reviewer whose musical tastes are excellent and whose reviews are always well-done, says this is the best value Williams disc available in the states. I believe him. |

| Don't Know Why | I have purchased numerous e-books for my Kindle. All have been received quickly and without problem. This book was received as usual but contained so many errors in spelling and punctuation that is was troublesome to read. I have read several books my R. Ludlum and enjoyed them but this e-book version was the only one I have ever encountered with these problems. Of course, these errors will not prevent one from enjoying the story but they are most distracting. |

| received knock-off version of boot | I was disappointed to receive the "knock-off" (imitation) version of this product, which can be purchased at a much lower price. Amazon offered to replace the item, which we readily accepted. However, we once again recieved the cheaper version, not the Western Chief Boot. |

| Best rock album of the year | This is a great cd to own. The hit single "last resort" is one of the worst songs of the cd and that is a pretty good song. If you listen to the songs a few times you will like them a lot, but 1-5 you should like the first time you hear them. The next 7 will grow on you. |

| Absolutely terrible | This disaster is the responsibility of Wiseau who acted in, directed, and produced this terrible film.The script is terrible.Most of the acting is terrible. Wiseau looks and laughs like someone stoned. Danielle cannot act and is not "beautiful" so her allure is inexplicable.The plot is terrible and predictable.Wiseau shows off his zero fat body in two sex scenes.Juliette Danielle shows off her breasts.Greg Sestero shows that he is handsome with a beard and a pretty boy without it.Other characters come and go without adding anything to the story, especially the orphan boy played by Philip Haldiman.To illustrate the plot problems, the four buddies are dressed in tuxedos and decide to play football. Why are they dressed in tuxedos? Is this the day of the much talked about wedding? No. It makes no sense at all.Do not waste your time or money on this disaster. |

| Josh Groban is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 | Josh is always consistent in his singing. He was doing his best at the Greek and it showed. What's wrong with a lot of women screaming and jumping up and down?? Like, that's bad or something? Wow, when he did "Mi Mancherai" with Lucia Micarelli, it was incredible. |

| Papa Roach Rules | Papa Roach's first cd is great. It is like a rebellious cd. Alot of the songs on there especially Broken Home and Between Insects and Angels i can relate to. I can listen to this cd like a hundred times and never get sick of it. its real life in a nutshell. |

| Disappointing | This was recommended as a great baseball book, and perhaps that sets the bar pretty low. Carkeet knows baseball, writing easily about nuance and detail of the game - to the point where a casual fan or non-fan will probably be at a loss. The problem is with the structure. The premise is that every member of a contending professional baseball team simultaneously falls into depression. Hijinks follow. Unfortunately, the narrative clicks so quickly from one character to the next, and there are nine protagonists, that it eventually becomes impossible to sort out one character from another. I found myself paging along, not remembering which character had which peculiarity, waiting for something to happen. Very little happened.Carkeet's prose is cute, and occasionally powerful. But the book is not particularly strong. |

| Glad they "ditched" the whole rap/NuMetal Thing | When Papa Roach first hit the scene, I was standing in a bar, and one of their songs came on the radio. I asked my friend, what is this crap that they are playing, he replied, "Papa Roach" Ughh, I thought stinking NuMetal Rap/Rock whatever you wanna call it band. Then in 2002 I saw the video (dont ask me why I was watchin MTV) for "She loves me Not" and I was suprised that it was Papa Roach. I liked the song so much I picked up "lovehatetragedy" and even though not perfect, it was a nice for them to shift over to a more straight up rock vibe. As I got into them more, I decided to pick this up. It's still pretty bad, even though I like the band now, there are two or three good songs here, the most is just throw away garbage. The band has made much progress since this album. If you prefer them as a rock/rap act, this album is for you. If you like them just as a rock band, then you will probely think this is pretty mediocre like I did. |

| Sure it's 1980s Retro, but it still is pretty darn good! | I have to be honest, I was given this CD about seven months before I sat down and really listened to it. I was rather upset with myself for having took so long. Several really catchy songs that really leave you wanting more. Tracks 1, 4, and 11 are the most commercial, and also the best, in my opinion. When listening to them I am taken back to the moody pop/alternative bands of the 1980s, they especially sound like The Church, from Australia. This album makes me want to seek out other of their stuff. |

| Mandatory reading to reach the higher you | This book is a window into what makes us tick as humans. It gives us an oppurtunity to understand how we connect to the environment and also shows us the steps to meet up with a higher plane of reality and consciousness. If you want to get to know who and what you are in a deeper way this book is for you. The knowledge is timeless and overcomes many boundaries that we place upon ourselves during are day to day struggles. |

| Poor product and packaging quality | The item is cheaply made, very fragile. It was wrapped in a thin layer of bubble wrap with some brown paper inside a huge box. Arrived damaged. Called Amazon, told me to throw it away and they sent another overnight as this was to be part of an anniversary gift. Second one arrived in exact same packaging, damaged. Called Amazon again, they wanted me to pack it up and take it to UPS store for returns. I told them I was not going to do that since now I have to rush around looking for another one. Asked for supervisor, rep came back on they told me to throw both away and issued me a refund.Product itself looks nice but cheap, chipped and damaged due to shipping. Would not recommend ordering since their shipping and handling failed twice. It will just arrive damaged. |

| if you're an aventura fan, buy this! | The content is top notch, the quality of the video is not.I watched this on a widescreen monitor and the video is in a different aspect ratio that doesn't fill up the monitor, you have a border on all 4 sides.The concert though is EXCELLENT. The songs are well chosen, the performances are great, the guest stars are a nice plus. I wish I could have gone to this concert.I've seen this dvd at least 10 times. I'll buy this again if it's released on a better quality dvd or format. |

| great book, poor paper | I was given this book as gift ten years ago. I enjoy the content and style of the recipes. The pages, however, are already yellowed and brittle. It's a shame that the publisher (Crown) would decide to print such a timeless work on such worthless paper. Find in a better edition. |

| MEN RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!! | This positive reviews are by women who think the perfect relationship is some romance movie like Gone with the Wind! The book and the eharmony website are a waste of time and money!! You will be the most miserable of any man on the planet if you read this book and do what it tells you, I did and after several years of misery I am done with hit. Neil Clark Warred should be sued for malpractice, he is just another person willing to tell desperate people anything they want to hear to get their money even if it is not true and will end in failure! |

| Mild Thing | I made it to about half way through the movie. The acting seemed "stiff" because of obviously attempting to imitate the previous plot of the Carpenter/Kurt Russell classic. The visual effects of the present remake were made for graphic gore/horror, rather than being an expression of an already building suspense -- a suspense which captivated the audience of Carpenter's work. I found the new version predictable and disappointing. |

| Live At The Greek | I have all of Josh Groban's CD's and DVD's. I was very hesitant to buy this DVD as the reviews were so poor. After watching "Live At The Greek" I feel the reviews were to harsh.Josh Groban is a very talented young man and works very hard to please his audience. Do not be afraid to buy this DVD. You will not be disappointed. |

| Just read the papers and save your money | The cross-entropy method is an exciting new technique for rare event simulation and stochastic optimization.The book unfortunately is a 99% copy and paste of the public available tutorials and papers. I bought the book before looking in the internet, so do not do the same mistake by me.Furthermore it is quite disappointing if every chapter is written in a highly redundant manner(which follows automatically if every chapter is a paper on its own).The topic and method is great but the book doesnt add much what the papers wont tell. |

| Green Mold in Pitcher | I have used Brita water pitchers for about 15 years. A few years ago I replaced my old one because it was looking old, it worked fine. With the new one that I got it developed green mold once in a while so that I would have to scrub the pitcher monthly. There were parts of the pitcher that I could not clean that remained green colored. So I scraped the pitcher and drink water from my tap now. I did some research and found many other similar complaints. |

| What's so great?? | The first four songs alone would be worth 5stars. It's the other 5 and 6 that weigh it down. Being a music lover who isn't over the age of 40, there's not enough..mmphh on the album. You're better of getting How To Dismantle A Bomb, Achtung Baby or No Line On The Horizon. |

| Exactly what I've been through in Europe! | I couldn't stop laughing while reading this book after a day-long meeting, back in my hotel room in England. I have travelled to Europe at least once a year, sometimes for business, most for holidays, for the past 10 years. The author's experiences, and impressions, of Europe match mine exactly. This book is a wonderful memoir for anyone who has travelled to Europe on a self-guided tour; it will remind them of what they've seen and done there. It is definitely not a travel "guide" book for people who intend to use the book for planning their trips. |

| brain reprogramming | I am a massage therapist and use elements of Hanna's work daily.Most people don't understand that their posture and how they use their body comes from how they have unwittingly programmed theirbodies. Their bodies are on "auto-pilot". Hanna makes this clear to the reader and then discusses how the reader can re-awaken their brain circuits and change their body programming, releasingmuscular tension, using the exercises in the back of the book. Granted that the wooden figures showing the exercises can be difficult to discern, it is worth your patience to work it out.Your body will thank you. I have adapted many of the movements to my table work sessions and always assign one or two movements as homework. You can do much on your own. I have given away many copies of this book to clients who showed great interst in Hanna's work and in taking care of themselves. |

| THIS [is bad] | I was soooooooo disappointed by this album. I love Josh a lot! But this record pisses me off. Kyuss was a king band. QOTSA first record was phenomenal. This, in one word, [bad]. you know how Nirvana was great and then Foo Fighters came out and you put the record on and you looked at the cover four times because you couldn't believe it was the same people? Because they sold out to pop? Because they started making sissy rock your mother would like? Sissy Sissy Sissy stuff and I'm [mad]!Josh, come on, cut down on the pot and sniff some cocaine, man like we did in Chicago at the Double Door! |

| Understanding the GMAT | English is not my native language, thus preparing for the GMAT has been a double effort for me.This book helps you clearly understand the different sections of the test, what is measured, what tips you should know, and how you should face each problem in order to maximize time constraint.It includes real questions, with explanations of correct answers and explanations of wrong answers; it helps you understand why you chose a wrong answer or why you took the "wrong-long" path to resolve it; i think this method is effective for you to avoid future mistakes.Sebastian MoragaSantiago - Chile |

| A Great Sitcom!!! | 227 will truly be rendered as one of the classic sitcoms of the twentieth century. It is among the same caliber as Sanford and Son or The Jeffersons. I think one of the underpinnings of the show's success is its dynamic cast of characters including Marla Gibbs, Helen Martin, etc. Jackee's character, the sexy Sandra Clark, is the driving force behind this show. 227 is a family comedy that transcends all ages and races. 227's first season is a bundle of laughs. The subsequent seasons are a must-have. I hope they become available soon! |

| the truth is.... | look people the truth about this cd is that well its just a collection of crap.a blind midget and his seeing eye dog pissing on a snare drum could make a better record than these loser i dont wanna go into a rant here but common the fact is that these guys just decided to take a little bit of the limp bizkit [stuff] a little bit of the lakin park [stuff] and slap it all together to make supercrap common people what happend too the good old days when musicians actually played their music back when they actually learned to play and had to actually work for their big break these guys got put together by whatever record company it is that pays these clowns to dance on their little stage i say we all go back to listening to the great music of the day and make these record companies drop those morons and go out and get real musicians common lets all break out the raid. |

| Live at the Greek | I wish I could write a glowing review of Josh Groban's concert DVD, but I can't. I loved and bought all of his CD's and the first concert combo until it came to "Closer." Although I liked a couple of tunes, it wasn't exciting or even run of the mill. I had high hopes for his Greek concert though. There are too many problems with the concert that have been mentioned often here, and I agree they make the concert a disappointment for Groban. Hopefully he can rescue his voice AND make another studio album that is appealing. His Live at the Greek concert isn't. It was just one disappointing turn after another. And Yes, please retire "To Where You Are." Performers can be categorized by repetition of one song. Groban already is and if he isn't careful, he won't even have enough fans to do that. |

| not a good book | this book is a very boring book. I read this book because it wuz in my home library thinking it was a good book since it was made into a movie. I was wrong. This book almost put me to sleep. I wanted to get in the habit of reading more often and this book was the only choice i had. I just finished reading the book and would never pick this book up again. Don't buy this book if you are over the age 13, since i am. If you are in the rage of 8-12, this book might be interesting to you. Teens, i do not recommend this book for you, it is boring. |

| Fun, but they break very quickly | My 7 and 4 year old loved these pens, but the twisting/cap holder broke on every single one of them in a day (and the kids are not particularly rough).I would love to get more because the kids really want them, but they are so expensive, especially considering the quality. Too bad. |

| This was a LOUSY book! | I'm afraid I can't recall the last time I read such an unrealistic book. A kid lawyer fresh out of law school takes on the super powerful legal conglomorate representing a massive insurance company... and wins, all by his widdle wonesome. The only way this could happen is if the opposing lawyers make every blunder possible... which they conveniently do. Along the way the law firm which tries to cheat our young hero mysteriously burns to the ground and a judge who is in cahoots with the insurance company's legal team suddenly dies the day before a vital ruling. I waited until the end of the book to find out who the kid's mysterious, immoral benefactor was... and there wasn't one. Nope. Just coincidence, the whole way.Along the way there are pointless subplots with a woman who claims to have millions in an Atlanta bank, a love story with an abuse victim, and the ethical dilemma of the need to be an ambulance chaser to make ends meet. WIll our young hero prevail? Who cares? |

It is a cult phenomenon. |

| Makes Me Miss the South | These boys are incredibly talented with such a timeless sound.. Generally, I'm not a huge fan of bluegrass/folk/country, but I LOVE this band (and not just because I went to high school with one of the members..) I agree with the others who rave about the live show.. it's incredible. Their energy and sense of humor gets the crowd clapping and stomping. |

| Junkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | The warranty from Coby is only 90 days and it broke a month later of course not under warranty anymore. It worked for 3.5 months and then just stopped playing and the screen glitches. It is a waste of money and Coby will no longer get my business or my support. They are rude on the phone and told me to get a cd cleaning kit and that was all they could do for me. What has happened to customer service these days???? |

| Nashville ruined these guys. | If you can track down some of their independent albums, check those out instead. They used to explode with energy. This is polished Nashville CRAP! Before they sold out, I'd compare them with the great Gus Cannon. Looks like they'll soon be on tour with The Dixie Chicks or possibly Creed. Corporate music has ruined another band. Buy something else. |

| Still a classic album! | U2's The Joshua Tree is at times, peaceful, moving, emotional, deep and rocking all at the same time. Some of the social themes are still felt today in U2's later albums such as All That You Can't Leave Behind from 2000. With or Without You, I Still Haven't Found, and Where The Streets Have No Name are still favorites. But other songs like Mothers of the Disappeared and One Tree Hill are very well done too. It is such a dynamic, creative and high point for the band and Bono and his band still perform songs from it in concerts. |

| Very nice addition to the pocket hole arsenal | This bench clamp's base is made from heavy zinc plated steel. The hefty weight of the base adds to the stability when it is used. The clamp is mounted to the base from the bottom by a large screw. The adjustable is well-made and exert ample pressure to the intersecting two pieces of wood. This clamp works best if mounted to a larger board (MDF would be perfect). The board should be routed with a recess so the base will sit flush with the board surface. Drill a hole at the center so you can have access to the mounting screws after the base is mounted. This Bench Klamp makes drilling pocket holes much easier. |

| {shakes head} ... | No offense to anyone who likes this C.D., but, I didn't even know if I had the right songs playing until the "artists" of "Guitar Tribute to Linkin Park (Tribute)" started singing, and I only listened to the samples. Sorry, but, I'm gonna have to say that this "tribute" does L.P. NO justice. (And I ADORE L.P. ...).Other than that, it's good to listen to; the guy (or people...) is (/are) very talented, but not when it comes to actually tributizing Linkin Park.(One more thing -no bash or anything, but-, the songs don't even have the same 'feelings' as what they're representing. I was listening to "Crawling", and it didn't even have any sad / angsty emtion to it; at least what I've heard of it.)[I hope that this was some help to someone / some people; otherwise, don't take my word for it. -You may not see it the same way I do....-] . (well, if you don't count the C.D. as an actual "tribute", then I give the music a three, I guess; maybe a four star rate). |

| Could Not Get Through It | Honestly this book was so slow moving I never ended up fisihing it. I read over half of it and could not bring my self to waste any more time.

| The Newer Bomb Turks | while they're obviously influenced by the stooges/MC5 like eveyone else is saying (and probably the dead boys, too) they're generally faster than any of those bands. what they realy sound EXACTLY like is the first few New Bomb Turks albums (who were also just old school punk rip off artists who are still pretty great). and therefore anyone who loves this album should get Pissing Out The Poison and/or Destroy Oh Boy for more of the same, maybe a little bit better (either of the Motards albums as well). |

| Thumbs down. Mudhoney did this better 15 years ago. | The best song on this album is "Better Living Through Chemistry" because it's the only thing that smacks of a new direction for the Queens while maintaining their originality and more importantly, their heavy sound. Other than that, it's really hard to figure out why these guys are picked to lead the parade of real modern hard (some call it "stoner') rock when there are MUCH better and more powerful bands out there (High on Fire and Electric Wizard come to mind) that write more memorable riffs than these guys do. Sorry, but this stuff doesn't even come CLOSE to any Kyuss album I've heard. It just sounds like second-rate Mudhoney/Green River re-hashes. Not exactly what I would pick to define a genre. Of course, with Interscope, Rolling Stone and Spin overdriving the hype machine for QOTSA, who can stop them? |

| Disappointed | I have read quite a few Julie Smith books and liked them but this book was a huge disappointment. The book is obviously an older book with a new title. There is nothing about Facebook in the story and the book was written before Facebook existed. The story was over involved and moved slowly. This is not a book I'd recommend. |

| No Impressed | At first I like Papa Roach but once you start listening to them for a while they get old and boring. They are just trying to be a depressed-rock-rap group. This cd isn't very original and if you haven't heard it you aren't missing much. |

| Good product | This is a great seller. The product arrived quickly and in great condition. The unit itself is a little loud when it loads movies and chapters, but it works great! I would buy from them again. |

| A real and true Country star - now unfortunately underated | I bought this album primarily for his '97 hit "Love Of My Life"...I was up north in the Yukon and preparing for a nice day-long roadtrip the night before... their local music store was closing and I had to buy a last-minute CD for some good tunes - so I picked Sammy Kershaw, and boy was it ever worth it! "Yard Sale" is one of my favourites, among a few others. Overall, great CD...one of my personal favourites in my whole collection and has somewhat more or less converted me into a new Sammy Kershaw fan. Well worth the money. Definately a great alternative and relief to what I hear mostly on the "country" radio stations nowadays... |

What the f**k!? this is pop! manufactured pop/punk. this goes against EVERYTHIGN punk stands for! |

| Perfect for my purposes. | I purchased this Packshower for it's dry-bag feature. I have a medium-sized canvas rucksack that I love but it is not water-proof and barely water-resistant; this serves as a perfect liner for that ruck. It is also very handy for gathering up enough water to completely drench campfires and carrying water to camp for filtering and purification. I was really surprised at how much even a moderately warm shower (after a couple days on the trail) improves my mood; I wish I would have gotten one years ago. |

| Wow. Just wow. | This film transcends cinema. It stands alone as a symbol of one man's triumph over the Hollywood establishment. I have so much more to say about this film but I'll keep my stupid comments in my pocket. |

| Would read this over and over again | I read this book when I was in the tenth grade and I loved it! I read it in one sitting I liked it so much that I asked my dad if he would help me find out how to order it. I never got the chance to order it but I bought from the bookstore this May when it was released again and I have read it over and over again it was incredible the ending was so shocking to me I was amazed when the killer was revealed. This book is one of my favorites and I have many favorites but this one stands out from the rest.I have purchased and read Cause For Alarm, Bone Cold, All Fall Down (which is my second favorite), and last but not least Fortune. All of them are great reads and I can wait to read her latest when it released in a paperback edition. If you like romantic suspense then you will love these books. |

| One Tough Movie | BULLETS OR BALLOTS is a well constructed "law and order" vs. the "mob" gangster film. Credit has to be given to Edward G. Robinson for his sincere performance as undercover cop Johnny Blake who pretends to go bad and Seton I. Miller's well conceived script for elevating this film above the ordinary gangster film. There is good and bad, black and white and a lot of gray area to the characters created for this film and that's what makes it so interesting. Robinson sees both sides and plays by his own set of ethics. This film also features Humphrey Bogart as the no good gangster Nick "Bugs" Fenner. However, Barton MacLane outshines him in an excellent performance as the local crime boss Al Kruger who counterbalances Robinson's character. This is one tough film and is very suspenseful and intelligently told. |

| Lots of material but could be presented better | I used this book in an electronic circuits class taught by the author. I great deal of information is covered, but not very well. There are not enough examples and the practical applications are not emphasized (could've been more SPICE explanations). The book is very theory heavy so it will go over well with profs, but there are a lot better books out there for those outside academia or those just wanting a second source with their own textbook. (Art of Electronics has the right presentation style but is getting way out of date). |

Mine diodnt come with pinnacle it came with Roxio dvd creator. I just used my own dvd copy program, I have already burned 8 dvds and not one is a coaster. |

| water spills into handle and then spills on the floor... | It is amazing that someone thought of such a design! The top of the handle is open, wide open. Therefore, the water easily spills into the handle (which is hollow, BTW), and the bottom of the handle is not closed tight, so the water spills on the floor, in the fridge (your choice...) You do not even need to fill the tank completely, halfway is enough, just washing the thing is sufficient, et voila! water on the floor! Magic! Don't buy this! |

| A good sequel for 2001 | If you enjoyed 2001, then you will probably like this book as well. It comes pretty close to the standards of 2001. Especially if the ending of 2001 left you with some questions and you are curious to see how ACC "filled in the blanks", then you should probably read this book. |

| The Shins - Wincing the Night Away | I had to get this album after the last album (Chutes to Narrow) which I loved. I saw The Shins at Austin City Music Festival last year and they sang a few songs off "Wincing" and I loved them. Their whole set was fabulous!!! So far, everything that this band has put out has been top notche tunes and Wincing the Night Away is no different. It's great!!! If you liked the last album you'll enjoy this one too."Cheap Shots for The Trite!!!" |

| The name is COBRA | This is my first radar, and after all bands that this unit can detect, I say many times save several tickets. Usually I take the highway and unfortunately the limit is 60. Should be 70 or 75, so I go faster to save time. Anyways, this radar detect cops far away, so it gives me time to slow down and no problems so far. On city, the same thing, on constructions roads, it beeps alert half block away. And when cops are in the city it beeps too, not all the times because most cops don't use their radar guns when they are driving.Good price for a good radar detector, and I love the VG-2 technology built in it.5 stars. |

| Rip Off | Marvel Superhero Squad Series 1 > Colossus & AngelI just received this order today. What a rip-off. I expected a much better toy. The price on this item is outragious for what you get. I found out too late that Toys R Us sells the same item for $6.99. This toy certainly isn't worth any more then this price.Leslie Hatch |

| Only because I couldn't give it zero stars.... | This CD is such utter garbage! Stewart does not have the voice to pull off these songs. I recently purchased a Frank Sinatra CD and Amazon recommended this trash. What an insult to Sinatra fans everywhere! |

| Wayne, u can't rap, and u can't diss | Lil Wayne's Lights out was a great CD, but this, this is a disgrace not only to cash money, but to hip hop itself. And way of life, he sampled Pac'e hit 'em up, and didn't make a good job of this song. The only good song is where you at, now that's a good song, but I didn't wanna pay 18 bucks 4 one song. And who does he think he is? Dissin Juvinile and Nas. If he can't rap, then he can't even spit one mad line at them. Juvinile killed him on one diss, "a ho". Lil Wayne didn't say nothin back since. And Nas, if he herd Lil Wayne's Ether, Nas will straight school him. Lil Wayne is garbage, and He is noehere near surpasing, or even close, or hotter that Juviniles classic 400 degreess. Lil Wayne, and the big Tymers, get better beats, get some talent, and better realeses or, just quit, cuz I don't like the garbage yall are puttin out. |

| tons of practice | This book was really good at giving a lot of practice questions. The reason behind the answers aren't very in depth though. I think this book helped a lot with my studies. I used the Princeton Review GMAT book along with this one and scored a 600 |

| An okay iPod | This was my very first iPod that I had gotten last year for a gift. I was very pleased with it for a while, until I ran out of space to put all of my music on. There is no expandable memory for this iPod, and that is not a good thing if you are going to shell out 80 dollars for this product. The size of this iPod could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you look at it. I carry a small purse without a lot of stuff in it and I had a hard time finding the thing. The perk to having a smaller iPod is that it doesn't take up a lot of space. One of my other gripes is that there is no screen there to tell you what is playing and how much of the battery you have left. All I have on this is the colors of the flashing little light to give me a rough idea. iTunes is easy enough to use but it can take a long time to load one song onto your iPod. That is why I switched to an iPod classic to give me what I wanted and more. |

| A bit of a depature, but kept me listening | I first heard about the shins back in 2002, so I was indoctrinated into the sounds of Oh Inverted World and Chutes Too Narrow. There remains echoes of the previous sound, Phantom Limb being the most obvious, but other songs are definitely a depature. Then, after a couple more listens straight through, I realized, hey, the Shins are still there, they have just grown and expanded! I continue to hope that their newfound success (the Seattle mainstream press has definitely noticed them) will only make them grow more, instead of make them stagnate, as too many other bands have done. Like Australia and Sealegs, though the album can hit you different ways, depending on your mood. Buy it. |

| Cold as ice | I bought this seat, and another just like it, for my wife and I to use at the Breeder's Cup in Kentucky last month. It was cold and we were going to be setting outside for 5 or 6 hours. We heated the seat's inserts in the microwave according to instructions, taking care not to heat it too long so the inserts would not burst. The seats were warm for maybe an hour and one-half, much, much less than the 4 to 5 hours advertised. For the second day, we even heated it as long as we dared and it still only provided about one hour's worth of heat. We were very disappointed in this product. |

| Ouch...... | This album is probably THE best instrumental album I've ever heard, and it's ausom how this band is from Sweden. So I always find myself thinking what a kik a** band when I start listening to the track, while the bass is rocking like crazy and the drums are doing godlike things, and then, I face sinks, as the vocals come in....The vocals in this album are the worst I've ever heard, and i really hate to say that. The instrumentals are so incredible, but this vocalist hurts your ears, and it won;t grow on you. I've tried, many times, to love this allbum, and i just can't, I wish this band would find a new vocalist so I could worship them. |

| Terrible ! Great songs - terrible voice | These are the greatest songs ever written. They're good arrangements, with a good (not great) orchestra behind him. But his voice is terrible - Rough, hoarse. When all is said and done, it's still Rod Stewart! What was anyone thinking? Why did anyone ever buy this CD?I wrote this in 2004. Since then I changed my mind. I love these CDs. I have all 4. I was mistaken. I apologize! |

| Outstanding, Unique, Valuable Contribution | So many people attribute African American healing to other cultures, particularly European Americans or Native Americans. While there were bound to be cultural sharing, Professor Sharla Fett makes it perfectly clear that enslaved Africans brought their own wisdom with them concerning farming and healing, as well as certain medicinal plants, with them to the Americas during the Middle Passage. "Working Cures" is an outstanding contribution to understanding distinctly American contributions to healing made by African Americans. Fett also presents the history of conjure, root doctoring, midwifery and a great deal more as it relates to medicine and healing in the African American community. Fett also illustrates the mind/body/spirit, holistic approach of African healing employed by African Americans. "Working Cures" is essential reading for those interested in learning the unique aspects of African American healing in the United States. |

| Punk? Maybe. Good? Definitely! | People love to argue over the merits of Blink being a punk or a pop band, and this album certainly wont help the situation. If Rancid or NOFX define punk for you, then prepare to be disappointed because this is not Cheshire or Dude. But if youre like me and think that Enema was quite listenable even though it punk foundation was questionable, then you'll love this CD. The album overall is quite different from the much played Rock Show, but not to its own detriment. The lyrics have matured a lot since Enema, and while the musical themes seem to be repeated a lot throughout, almost every song will remain in your head throughout the day after one listening. For some, that makes it pop, for me it makes good music. |
