| I find this product useless as it is too uncomfortable to wear, even for an hour. Purchased to help keep good posture at work, but I could not use at all.Also why do you have to buy three? |

| First, before seeing this movie please read the book (Stardust by Neil Gaiman). This movie is a faithful adaption of the book. It is a great fantasy and love story, with a twist of Adventure. I really enjoyed this movie. It has excellent special effects, and is fun to watch. |

| This book should be compulserary reading for caretakers. It can show how to deal with the stress and "burnout" of peole in all fields. I learned how better deal with my terminal illnes. Whereas, I do not agree with the later stages of the "bardo" ( the dying process of 40+ days) from the Tibetan / Buddhist point of view, all else was quite perffect. For one to impliment the suggestions in this book are , in my experience, guarenteed to ellivate an individuals ability to be compasionate toward life itself. Thank you, Tom J. Sawyer, Rochester, N.Y. |

| If you've seen the anime you have to read the manga! I just love this book, it's my favorite translated manga up to date. The art is just beautiful, it's funny, it's serious, it's got all the makings of a great story - and it's just the beginning of a long running series! |

| This is exceptionally well scripted and directed. The dialogue is spare and to the point; almost none is included just for the sake of 'having people talking', and some long, almost silent scenes are among the most effective, rivetting one's attention. In addition, Victor Mature and Richard Widmark are both mesmerising in their different ways. Whoever said that Mature couldn't act? I have now seen him in three old films in the last couple of years ('I Wake Up Screaming', 'My Darling Clementine' and this one) and he is first rate in them all. Highly recommended. |

| I bought a MuVo N200 (Micro) and it's probably the best MP3 player that I've ever had.The only problem I found is the ear buds. They're a little big and they can get annoying after a few hours of wearing, but they will stay in your ears. You can easily but new ones for pretty much nothing.Everything else is fine with this MP3 player and I highly recommend it. |

| Ill admit I was a little disappointed that there are only 3 new songs on this CD, but that all passed when I started spiinin it. The new songs are great, and the old tracks are classic - they picked the perfect mix of them to put on here, and showed everyone what Outkast is all about. If you have all the Outkast cds, dont bother getting it since it is almost completely old songs. If you dont have any or all of the Outkast albumd though, buy this for sure - what are you waiting for? Go get it! |

| I recently purchased the Sony box with the complete symphonies with Bernstein at the helm. I had been expecting this performance of the 5th to be a disaster, but I have been pleasently surprised by it. As an interpretation, it is marvelous, and I wonder if the recorded sound quality is the real culprit in the generally negative reviews this performance has received. Granted, neither the playing nor the sound engineering is particularly good, but one may enhance the sound quality to an acceptable level by creatively manipulating a graphic equalizer. Fortunately, the other recordings in the complete set sound much better. I probably wouldn't buy this as an individual disk, but would certainly recommend listening to it as part of the Sony box set. |

| I have become a fast fan of Mustela products for my 3 year old who suffers from eczema. This is the first Mustella product that fell short for me. I started with bath oils, shampoo & conditioner, massage oil, and lotion; all of which smell pleasant & light if not good, and seem to work well on his skin... I bought these wipes to keep to clean his hands on the go, but the smell is obnoxious. It is so strong, and gross. I was trying to scrub the smell off my hands when I felt compelled to leave a review. Going to find another alternative. |

| What was the point of this book? I guess it was to hear the main character spout off an endless barrage of lame, smart-alec quips (which a quarter of the way through was VERY old), listen to him whine about his job and worship his girl friend. His run-ins with the church, KKK, town officials, etc. are quick, dull and without consequence. The supporting characters are lifeless.This book is about as satisfying as having rice cakes for Thanksgiving dinner. |

| Do not get fooled by the release date on this DVD. Don't get me wrong. The stories are as good as always. But the actual production are probably in the late 80s or early 90's. But after watching those more recent Thomas release DVD you'll not be interest in watching those old productions. |

| Equity clock: Second hand broken on arrival even thought the packaging was good, junk. Amazon was good on the return, I've now had a seiko QHT011KL for a month and it is great cause I like an analogue face with a good alarm and bright night light when you press it. Good folded travel size too. Most night lights aren't good enough that i tried, and i don't like turning on a lamp to see a clock in the middle of the night. Very visable in day also. No i don't work for seiko, and I think it is not made as well as their products 30 years ago but it is the right choice compared to today's competition. |

| I recently found myself with no computers at the house that still had a serial port. This was a problem when trying to program via a serial interface for a Home Theater Master MX-800 remote. I initially ordered and tried the Cables Unlimited USB-2920 USB 2.0 to Serial DB9 Adapter and it simply didn't work. After doing a little more research, I decided to purchase the slightly more expensive Keyspan High Speed USB Serial Adapter (USA-19HS). When it arrived, I inserted the CD and didn't see a Windows 7 driver and there were no instructions. I went to the Keyspan website and found/installed the Windows 7 beta driver. I plugged in the adapter, started the MX-800 software and configured it to match the serial port (in my case COM6) and it worked perfectly! |

| This item is black. I do not ever recall seeing a black slinky, they were all silver like uncoated metal. And yes, I was there in the 40's and played with a lot of them. Also it fails to do it's thing if your steps are 11" deep and covered with carpet. Back in the 40's the steps were less deep, at least in a row house in Philadelphia and they worked like a charm. |

| Long a stodgy devotee of baroque music, with the first few notes of this strong stuff I became an addict. Over and over again I play this CD, never quite anticipating the power and emotional bang of the music as it plays - even though I know the notes by now. If you ever studied Walter Piston's "harmony" the structures and transitions are back-of-the-book stuff, but the push is all elemental, basic, built-in, the familiar 1-4-5 with musical sequins, trampolines, backflips, and gelginite. Wow. And then some.I'm so besotted, I had a couple of 13-year old boys (my son and a friend) listen to it in the car one day. They were bug-eyed after a couple of cuts, and not with horror. Now they ask for it, and yell with glee when the musical tension breaks over their heads in crashing chords.Can I add a few more stars? |

| I must admit I don't spend much time on any negative reviews, but this movie was so bad. It plays out 3 people at the end of the world as It's crashing into another planet?? The Dialkogue is even way off. Makes no sense. This was the worst movie of the year so far. Stay away from It. Unless you get a chance free. But even then It not watchable. |

| After reading other reviews of this DVD, I was looking forward to something I could really learn something from. I was mistaken. I've played guitar for 30 years and was wanting to add to my blues licks, but Buddy in this video doesn't play very well, and he doesn't even explain much about his technique, or his thinking about how he goes about it. I was a bit disappointed and wished I could return it. |

| Runs reasonably fast, doesn't load down or crash my system, doesn't interfere with other processes on my system, and doesn't get in my way. Much better than I can say for Norton NAV2006, which crashed my system hard and consistently. I was a Norton user for quite a few years, but was getting tired of their bigger, more bloated, more annoying, and buggier stuff. NAV2006 pushed me over the edge, and I am a NAV user no more. PC-cillin appears to be a breath of fresh air. I think I'm a convert! |

| Classic Seinfeld is best demonstrated in the middle seasons, but the series ends better than it started. The story lines start getting a bit crazy without the guidance of Larry David, but there are still many memorable episodes: The Yadda Yadda, The Little Kicks and The Bizarro Jerry all stick out in my mind. Those are actually some of the most remembered episodes ever, up there with the Soup Nazi and The Contest.As always, I found the commentaries interesting. More so when they are from a writer or director (the actors typically don't know much more than the viewer). |

| The great Dutch conductor Willem Mengelberg would often justify his so-called "changements" to Beethoven scores by saying, "Don't argue with me - I am the best pupil of the best pupil of Beethoven". There are very few "changements" evident in these famous recordings, so well presented in this Naxos issue. A figure that occurs for the first time in the "Coriolan" Overture at about one minute in is always stretched out for an extra beat whenever it occurs. The "Turkish March" is played through twice, as it was in an earlier recording by the same forces made in 1930. Otherwise everything is as the composers indicated in their scores, and performed and recorded in the Amsterdam Concertgebouw probably with more precision, excitement and impact than they ever dreamed possible. |

| If the same old boring bowls have you desiring something new, this is it. We bought these from Target, I think, and were very pleased with what we got. Both elegant and sturdy, they're the type of bowl you will never think twice about using for mixing AND serving. We use ours for everything, from making pancake batter to serving salad to company. A very good purchase. |

| "Celestial Navigation" is one of Tyler's most profound works, and my personal favorite of her books. Through a series of publically unimportant, though personally tragic human losses, two people meet who seem to have nothing in common except the most basic need of a mate. What they actually have in common, however, is their method of "navigating" life: their vision fixes on one goal, as ancient mariners fixed a telescopic gaze on a star, or the horizon, to guide them across the trackless oceans. The protagonists' desire to reach their goals in a world they do not understand determines every decision each one makes, even if it is wrong, will lead to disaster, or will ultimately break their hearts. The same may be said for almost every other character. You will not regret this read. |

| I have listened to Steven Curtis Chapman for at least 10 years and everytime I buy his albums I am never let down. He does such a fanatastic job of picking songs with AMAZING meanings. And he sings them with conviction and a real sincerity. And above all his voice is just so wonderfully melodic, its joy to own all of his CDs and I listen to them for years after I buy them, this CD will follow in all the others footsteps. WELL DONE Mr. Chapman :) |

| Unless you have been part of a weekly poker game, you may not understand why I like this book, particularly the section on "ethics and etiquette," so much. There really is some honor among thieves.

| I was skeptical when I purchased this. After all a litter box is a litter box right? How could it make that much difference? Wrong! This is so easy to use & makes it much less of a hassle to clean the litter box. Just roll it over onto its top then roll it back over. Take out the tray & dispose of the waste. No more scooping, no more dirty scooper laying around & a lot less mess. The cats seem to like it too. I left the other litter box so they could make the transition & they immediately stopped using the old box & started using the new one. Wish I had discovered this litter box long ago. |

| Its incredible how this pedal sounds with a Strat!, the bightness of single coils achieves a unique sound and power that I never seen before, I have a Original CryBaby GCB95 too but it does not sound like a fassel wah at all maybe because It seems to cut the clean sound of a Strat (but still this is a very good wah too), now I figure out why Jimmy Hendrix and Yngwie Malmsteen have used it along their career and they keep it using as a part of their amazing sound, I'm very happy with this pedal and I'll play it as long as I can live... |

| I have previously used a Tom-Tom 910 in Europe and in the US. The screen on the Garmin is easier to read in all light. Like the Tom-Tom 910 it has both US and European maps. It has a significantly longer battery life than other Garmin and Tom-Tom products. It seems easier to use than the Tom-Tom and is just as accurate. I like the voices on the Tom-Tom better than the voices on the Garmin. Overall, I am pleased with the Garmin Nuvi 370. The price was very competitive. |

| I like the way his book takes a teen-age girl from today and takes her to her back to the days of Holocaust where she meets ancestors and sees what it was like for them to live back then. She goes through very few happy times, which were unusual in the concentration camps, and goes through the rough and hard times that were most common in the days of the concentration camps. |

| Like a well written piece of classical music, the story of early chemistry bears telling and retelling. Each interpretation brings the emotions and the feeling of its author. The written music is the same, the pleasure of listening to it comes from who does the playing.Richard Morris would have made a great conductor. His interpretation of early chemistry is one of the most enjoyable I read. Read it together with Paul Strathern's "Mendeleyev's Dream" and Oliver Sacks' "Uncle Tungsten". You'll feel you have personally met Paracelsus, Lavoisier and Boyle. |

| I thought about giving Spiderman 4 stars but decided against it. This is the most boring action movie I have ever seen. Aside from the horrible CGI, it really really drags. Over 2 hours??? Why? Throw out all the useless, underdeveloped character (Uncle Ben, Aunt May, Harry Osbourne, all the insignificant references to Spiderman comic book personalities), and you might end up with a decent 1 hr 40 min film. And no it did not follow the comic book. Anyone who says that is lying...all the more reason to get rid of some characters. I fear the coming of Spiderman 2, or as I will call it, Spiderman Again. I know it will be rehash becasue of Hollywood's unrelenting philosophy... "If it makes a lot of money, make it again." |

| I am a huge Mabel Maney fan, but I was disappointed in this book. There's no light hearted romance in this book--just endless inventories of horrible 1950s pop culture items, and tiresome characters beating each other up. Jane spends the entire book in drag with a glued-on unibrow. Way too much of the book is about Cedric and his unappealing love interest. I kept waiting to be entertained and charmed, as I inevitably am by Maney, and instead I felt just slightly ill. Read the Nancy Clue books or the original Jane Bond parody, but borrow this one from someone who will take it back. |

| This item is absolutely dangerous to use on your dog. The prongs have sharp edges that will cut into the neck of your dog. All the ones I have seen at Petsmart and other places have prongs that are smooth and rounded and will not cut into the neck of the dog. They give you vinyl caps to cover the prongs as an option. These caps are thin and cheaply made and if used, I feel will break off leaving the sharp prongs exposed.If you care about your dog, I would tell you this is NOT something I would use. Cheap price. Cheap product. Made in China. You get what you pay for.I would definitely NOT recommend this product.I have requested to return this item to Amazon, who gave me a prompt refund and even told me to just keep the item!

| I really liked the movie because it is funny and intertaing. I really would have liked it even better if Smokey would have been back in the movie. I think that they should make another one and have smokey back in the movie. The story line was funny and easy to follow along with the movie and pay attention. I think it's not a movie that should be watched by a little kids. But other than that it is the best Friday movie out so fare. |

| Better story than Jungle Book. Better music. Some things are red flags to parents today (A goose gets drunk, and several characters smoke.) But it's still better than Jungle Book in my opinion, a tighter story, with more charming characters. Scatman Caruthers (sp?) does a great job. |

| Wow! This CD is amazing; real soul music. I got the CD because I loved the song that was showcased on Putamayo's World Blues CD. I listen to a lot of world music and The Unseen Guest is the best of East meets West that I have seen around in a long time. The combination of blues guitar and Indian instruments fits so nicely that it brings you to a place that you haven't had the pleasure to visit before. The lyrics are mysterious and haunting at times. There is a true sense of other worldiness in this music. It is refreshing and new and we are lucky to have such talented and innovative artists out there to bring us this truly unique sound. A vey special CD! |

| Sister Hazel has talent. Not only do they have some talent but they are unbelievably nice, funny, adventurous, quirky, everything. The dvd, A Day in the Life, delves deep into their lives and shows what real, true people they are. They aren't some stuck up band who doesn't have time for their fans. They stay after their shows and even cook hot dogs with them in their bakery hats!!! haha...Not only is there a full-length documentary on the dvd, but there's also a full concert with favorites such as "Champagne High, Your Winter, and All For You."

| My ex thinks these are great. He owns a used car lot and does a little work himself and has a mechanic. They use them all the time. I bought them a year and a half ago and they are still in good shape. |

| I'm really disappointed with this video. the song style is like 60s to 80s that tots never understand the wits or anything. My daughter really loves to watch wiggles but not this one.It's really boring except Dr. knickerboker song. and Sam Moran... He really sings well but I miss Greg. Still, I don't get the picture of 4 wiggles without Greg.Anyway, don't buy this dvd. |

| Having fallen for Sarahs sublime Surfacing cd I reckoned her previous one ought to be equally fabulous. Well, guess again: it is not. It's all just too hermetic and too girly... too complex and too would-be. Lets face it: we love Sarahs music because it's so simple, so genuine, so unconstructed and self-evident. So what's with these weird arrangements? I much much much prefer the versions she did on The Freedom Sessions. Then, finally, you get to hear just how beautiful a song Mary is, or how lovely Ice Cream can sound, and how beautiful Good Enough and Hold On really are. I am soooo glad she put things right with Surfacing!!! |

| I bought this book hoping to pick up a little bit of the language that so many of my friends speak.Although it is no substitute for personal instruction, I found this to be quite useful. I learned a few colloquialisms, and the author interjects some interesting culture notes here and there.All in all, I'd say it's work the couple of bucks to pick it up. Recommended. |

| I was really looking forward to this knife block since it had room for 2+ Chef Knife size blades and a cleaver. However I was very unhappy with the near garbage quality of it. The front section where the steak knives are held was glued on with a large amount of glue coming around edges and there were large gaps where it didn't fit correctly against the large part. Also in 2 of the slots there there large wedges that were hanging down that caught the blades and stopped the knife from going in. Also the the "Wusthof" that is shown in the picture as engraved into the block was not there. It was only a cheap metal sticker on the front where there name on it. I ended up going to Sur La Table, and purchased the same knife black but in the store brand for about $10.00 less just in a different color, and of much better quality. |

| No better than any other low-budget B movie from the 70s. I'm not sure why this generated so much hype. My guess is the director's name. It really is nothing special. It has it's boring moments, gross moments, and horrific moments, and it seems to deliver in the original ratio of 1:2:2.Anyway, for what it's worth: enjoy it, I was kind of disappointed. |

| I'm from the Bronx, and was eleven when the WPIX Yule Log made its debut, on a great kid's tv station. I feel sorry for anyone who didn't grow up in New York at that time and doesn't have the WPIX Yule Log registered in their Christmas memories. Thank you Mr. Arcuri for slamming down this impostor. |

| Some of the online reviews bring to mind the snobbishness of the reviews in 1982. This film is brilliant in its silliness and slapstick humor. The thrust of the movie was not so much to "remake" Pirates of Penzance, but to update it and make the humor more accessible to a new group of people, as well as poking fun at those who believed that the now subtle humor of "Pirates of Penzance" was only for the "highbrow." Well, giving a bit of a background of Gilbert and Sullivan their humor at the time was aimed squarely at the rigidity and formality of the upper classes, and was considered slapstick, silly and highly accessible in its time. This movie pokes fun at the upperclasses, and was highly offensive to the reviewers of the time because of this. Sit back and enjoy it, but also realize that this movie does far more than simply make fun of Pirates of Penzance, Star Wars and Raiders..... |

| Two households and 7 cats later, I still have an almost full bag of this stuff. I put it out because I ran out of their regular food, and couldn't make it to the store right away. My 4 cats, despite not having eaten in almost a whole day, won't go near this stuff. It just sits in their bowl. When I first brought it into the house, they tried it, but haven't eaten it since. I would not recommend it, despite the good ingredients |

| Sweat gets into it easily during exercising and eventually malfunctions even after drying up. Otherwise plays well, sleek look, great size. |

| This opener is great to use on water bottles and other bottles that have the small tops. Makes opening them a breeze. |

| There's no other modern rock band that sounds like Jane's Addiction.I've been waiting for this album (any album) from Jane's Addiction for years. Now that its finally here, it does not disappoint. Perry's "other" project Porno For Pyros was OK, but this is the real deal.All the tracks maintain that classic Addiction sound...but the band (and especially Perry) builds on that sound and transforms it into something very 21st Century. As on past releases, this album emphasises the positive...many of the songs are upbeat, with just a few ballads.I give this wonderful album 5 stars, and hope their next album follows soon. I'm catching them on the revived Lollapalooza Tour later this summer, and will have all the songs from this album memorized by then. Buy it now! |

| Kensington put out a nice sound for a smaller portable unit. Very light unit and the batteries (rechargeable) hold up well. Nice on/off switch on front. Can use a remote with a nano. Built in stand works fine and is convenient. |
