The only problem is her voice
A good double CD featuring most of Marina's recent hits. Great arrangements and sound quality. The only drawback is Marina's voice which is often weak and off tune. For her fans, though, this is still a must-have. | 1 |
Very Nice book by Mr. Hume
The quality of the book is unsurpassed, beautiful photographs of the pottery items. The book even has two built in ribbon bookmarks, something rarely seen these days. Hume's use of the language has always been amazing to me, he writes very well, and always has. His colorful career is reflected in his writing, and the collection of artifacts from GB. I would recommend this book for anyone interested in Colonial American or British archeology, or pottery from the past centuries. "Bravo" to the Chipstone Foundation and Ivor Noel Hume! | 1 |
WONDERFUL BOOK! INFORMATIVE! DETAILED! GREAT PHOTOS AND DESCRIPTIONS!
When I look for a good book on pottery and Porcelain, I always look for something that will not "lull me to sleep" with drole monotone type sentences, but rather something that presents not only important details, facts and descriptions but does so in a interesting manner. With "If these Pots Could Talk" you get everything! From enjoyable "in the field stories" to truly illuminating facts that ever increases ones appreciation of the "pots and dishes" that so many are hasty to overlook once they hear that they hold no "intristic market value".This book makes the studying of pottery and porcelain not only interesting but also something that is rarely heard of in the "sophisticated collecting field" FUN! | 1 |
If These Pots Could Talk
This is the largest, heaviest book I own. Really! I thought it would take years to get through, but the pages are quite thick, and it's well-written. A fun book for the pottery enthusiast who is already familiar with the basics, it gives numerous insights into the detective work employed in the course of archeological research. Refreshingly personal on the part of the author. Each chapter is an appitizer that stimulates the reader's interest in another facet of (unfortunately) rarely encountered pottery. The charming cover adds to the book's appeal as a coffee-table selection, but make sure the table has sturdy legs! | 1 |
Beware!
I bought this book looking for a nice, unabridged version of Bram Stoker's hard-to-find novel. It is definitely NOT what I expected. From what I can tell, Medium Rare Books (the "publisher") downloaded the text from Gutenberg (or some other copyright-free site), and merely transferred that directly to print. There are no proper paragraph breaks, no editing to speak of, lots of wasted space--the "chapter headings" take up an otherwise blank page all to themselves.Do not buy this book! | 0 |
Well built case
This case is very well built, with good material and with "bubble" protection inside.It fits perfectly my 11.8 in notebook.The only cons I have is the size os the outter pocket: it could be less tight.In general, I highly recommend this case. | 1 |
Great price for what you get!
This is a great product, by a great company, at a great price. I was able to install it myself without any problems. The only thing that I wish is that there was a way to listen to it over the internet to see how loud it is. For the price I paid, I was happy with the sound. I just wish it was a little louder. | 1 |
Only read half of book, and then deleted from my Kindle!
Way too sappy, with unbelieveable characters and silly but complicated plot. Even halfway through, could not get into this book. | 0 |
Amazing Love Story
This is my second book my Andrea Kane and I just loved it. The way she developed the love between Trenton and Ariana was wonderful. Ariana was a great female character. The way she stood by Trenton even when her brother tried to make him look bad in her eyes was heartwarming. Trenton was a wonderful man because no matter how mad he got he was always able to let it go so that he wouldn't hurt Ariana. Great job!! | 1 |
Great for toddlers
This sweet board book has simple illustrations and wording to help a toddler understand a few of the basics of Passover. An adult won't learn much but it will familiarize your little guy and help him feel included in the holiday. | 1 |
Father in CCC
I purchased this book a couple years ago for my father, who was in the CCC. He is now 94 and still tells tales about this time in his life. In fact, we visited his Camp Zaleski (Ohio) a couple weeks ago. While visiting the FDR Memorial in Washington DC a week ago, I was very pleased to see this book in their gift shop. There are far too few books about the CCC; only a few comments here and there in other books. It's a shame there is not a more detailed book including information on all the camps and the great work accomplished by the CCC. | 1 |
Review of Book entitled
The Book referred to above in the Title A Documentary by Kathy Mays Smith is best book I have read about a Civilian Conservation Corps Company. I spent five years in the CCC's visited numerous Camps and also visited Side Camps and was stationed at one that were connected to my CCC Camp # 1474 located at Clarksville, TN later moved to Murfreesboro, TN. All Camps were similar but did not necessarily perform the same type work. I thought that the Author did a good job in telling the story of a CCC Camp. This Book was much beter than Tom Brokaw's book, although his Book was very good< it did not contain pictures and tell the story of the times as well.Both Books were about The Greatest Generation, however this Book expands on one area of the times not touched by Mr. Brokaw's Book. The CCC's were special to President Frankli D. Roosevelt and Kathy Smith covered it in an excellent manner. [...]. | 1 |
Big and does a good job
It is a big drying cloth that really does a great job soaking up water. Much better than the AmorAll 'rag' I bought at a B&M; store. That piece of junk started unraveling the first time I washed it. The Cobra cloth still looks brand new after being washed 3 or 4 times.Well worth the money for the quality.Darin | 1 |
Great for singers
If you are training to be a classical singer, this dictionary will become your best friend!Totally recommended! | 1 |
Textbook
I order this dictionary and it arrived earlier than expected and was in the exact condition that it was discribed. Just alittle disappointed that it didnt have the print out what I ordered with it. I like to keep that in my records of what I spend from my scholarships that i have earned. other than that extremly happy. | 1 |
Cute for the price
Got this for a charity donation. I'm sure it will be very special to a child in need. Very pleased with the price and the quality. | 1 |
Had so much potential
and I liked where the author was going, but agree with so many people here that the language and thoughts were just too modern for the period in which the book was set. One major annoyance for me was that he couldn't speak to her without saying her name.....Caroline, Caroline, Caroline....alright, already, we know her name! And, I absolutely hate it when an author tells you that something happens rather than letting us read it as it occurs. | 0 |
I'd rather read cereal boxes.
Others have already commented on the twentieth-century dialogue and jarringly modern attitudes - these are things I will overlook if a book grabs me, but this one didn't. If it only had a stronger and more compelling story, I might also have been able to ignore its cliched and winceworthy prose. As it is, somebody should take Adele Ashworth's adjectives and - especially! - adverbs away from her out of sheer mercy to the reading public... | 0 |
expected too much
AFTER READING THE REVIEWS OF OTHER READERS I EXPECTED THIS BOOK TO HAVE AN INTERESTING STORY LINE AND IN DEPTH CHARACTERS. TO MY DISMAY THE CHARACTERS CAROLINE AND BRENT WERE UNREALISTIC AND RATHER BORING. I STILL CANNOT BELIEVE THAT CAROLINE COULD DIAGNOSE THE DAUGHTER ROSALYN AS BEING DEAF AFTER ONE BRIEF ENCOUNTER. I FELT VERY LITTLE CHEMISTRY EXISTED BETWEEN THE TWO LEAD CHARACTERS AND FOUND MYSELF SKIMMING THROUGH THE PAGES TWO THIRDS INTO THE BOOK. THE INTRODUCTION OF THE FRENCH SPY/ASSASAIN SEEMED VERY MUCH CONTRIVED, AND DID VERY LITTLE TO IMPROVE THE STORY. I DOUBT THAT I WILL READ ANY FUTURE BOOKS BY THIS AUTHOR. | 0 |
Wonderful and loving
My Darling Caroline is one of the best books I have read in months. The characters Caroline and Brent were filled wth such raw emotins. It was good to see such a hero who was just an ordinary man with needs and desires. Caroline expressed views that still affect women today and how our spouses should react to those views. A++++ | 1 |
Real People
While this novel does follow many of the standard plotlines one would expect from a Regency romance, Adele Ashworth manages to breath new life into the genre. Her hero and heroine are real, breathing people - not the stereotypical rake and beauty. Don't get me wrong, this book has its fair share of steaminess - but it has a whole lot more than just that. After reading it I logged on to Amazon tonight for the express purpose of finding other novels she's written. It looks like this is her first - and I hope she writes more! | 1 |
KNOCK OFF
110% NOT genuine abercrombie and fitch hoodie from the typos on the tag to the overly large and awkward fit. Certainly nowhere near the quality exhibited by real abercrombie. Do not purchase. | 0 |
Sized quite large
I purchased these so I could have a cute, trendy looking flat shoe to wear this fall. All in all these are very comfortable shoes but be sure you order a size smaller than you normally wear. I vary between a 7 - 7 1/2 so I ordered a 7 because I read that they run large and it is still a 1/2 - full size too big. | 1 |
Learning CICS
This is an excellent text for beginning CICS programmers and experienced COBOL/CICS programmers. It covers the basics in an easily understandable manner and does not assume a level of knowledge that leaves the new programmer wondering what he missed. The examples provide a good start to learing by doing. I bought the book to update my programming library and found it a good review and reference | 1 |
Excelent book !!
I recommend for all programmers and System Analist that needs to learn everything about COBOL CICS. | 1 |
Disappointed
I was a foreign exchange student in Paraguay, and before I left I bought this dictionary. I had hoped to study Guaraní from it, but eventually gave up after finding many words that were not accurately translated. Alternate spellings are rarely listed, which makes finding words difficult in a language like Guaraní that is more oral than written, with lots of regional variations. The small number of words and lack of compound words (which is basically all words that you'd encounter) made this dictionary basically useless to me. It may just be outdated, but overall, I would not recommend it. Better to buy a good English-Spanish dictionary before you go, then the little blue Ñe'ryru Guaraní-Español dictionary that nearly every student in Paraguay seems to own. It's fairly cheap, and if you need a real Guaraní dictionary, is definitely worth the few dollars. | 0 |
A nice album , but somethng is missing
In this album , you will imagine that you are listening a new age one sometimes , but that is not true . The music at the back is just wonderful and the lyrics are nice as well , but sometimes , you cannot listen to her in thne middle of the song , she sings too unloud that sometimes it gets confused with the music at the back . I will say this is not the best album for her , but not too disapointed for not buying another one of her . | 1 |
Feast For A Fan
The NOTLD 25th Anniversary documentary was a great pleasure to watch. The sound studio scene with Karl Hardman & Marilyn Eastman was fascinatingly revealing, as were the photographs of the made-up zombies. The meeting between Hardman, Romero, Russo and Streiner could have been a little more sharp, though, as it is now a mere friendly chat between old pals. I also missed people like Judith O'Dea, the late Duane Jones and Kyra Schon (of whom I noticed her own website!) Altogether big fun for a horror classic fan. | 1 |
Horrible
This was a gift from a well-meaning relative.The audio is unintelligible.The menus are difficult.A $20 toy, not a $200 tool. | 0 |
PERFECT GIFT FOR YOUR GODPARENTS
What a wonderful book -- a rich, fascinating history of the role of godparents, but written with a light, even funny touch. I got this for my daughter's godparents, and for my godchildren, and for my sister to give to her kids' godparents, and so on and so on. Thank you, author Michelle DeLiso, for pulling all this history and all these facts and so much wit together into such a great package. | 1 |
Wonderful Gift for Your Godparents or Godchild
What a fascinating and adorable little book. Perfect gift for godmother, godfather, godchild, even expecting parents. Loved this. | 1 |
pay more get somethig better
This is a nice looking racquet but performs below par. You get what you pay for. If you are looking for decent racquets go with the Joola brand of racquets they are far superior. | 0 |
Just for beginners
This racquet is only for your guests that don't know anything about true table tennis. It is a good, inexpensive introduction to a pips-in paddle but anyone who is looking to really learn table tennis should look at Butterfly or Killerspin paddles. | 0 |
not too impressed
I though this shark would be bigger. I bought the same one at a gift shop in RI for 99 cents 2 years ago. | 0 |
Don't waste your money - I did!
Don't waste your time reading it either...I am cowboy action shooter and I would not recommend this book to anyone. It does not represent the sport. Nor is it a good introduction to the sport. It isn't even a good read for someone wanting to know the generalities of Cowboy Action Shooting (CAS).The first 1/4 is a collection of eight articles written and edited by a few writers on various subjects which somewhat relate to the book title. The last 3/4 is a repro of parts of a firearms catalog. The last 20 pages are SAAS affiliate listings available online on the SASS WebPages.Much of this info in the first 1/4 was lifted from The SASS Handbook (available online at no charge). There are inaccuracies in the book. (16 gauge shotguns are SASS legal). And there is advertising in the book! - something I find unacceptable in a published book, however the advertising is the only color in the otherwise all black and white photo and text book. | 0 |
cowboy action shooting, guns gear tactics
most useless book i have recently purchased. book is an attempt to cash in on a popular and growing sport, but is no help for guns, little for gun leather, and absolutely worthless for tactics. the bulk of the book is a price guide for used guns. book was an absolute ripoff, more useable information can obtained from sass forums. | 0 |
Found mine! Author needs to update!
I had this little gem of a book tucked away and found it while cleaning. It helped me when I was a Bride 25 years ago. The author should update it; I found the information very convenient and helpful! | 0 |
A good compilation
This is a nicely priced collection of some of the best tunes by the "New Testament" Basie band of the late fifties and early sixties. Great charts, great performances, and high quality recordings make this a good starter for someone interested in the later Basie band. (If you're looking for a good buy in the early Basie recordings, get the "Swingsation" series Basie album.) | 1 |
Terk = Turkey
Don't buy this, it is not worth throwing your money on. I'm located at NYC & this antenna did not inproved the radio proformance (ok may be just a very small bit in term of static) over the regular oem wire antenna. The only reason it got one star is because it looks better the the cheap wire antenna the radio came with. | 0 |
Excellent Product
We have had a log swing for 8 years. This year the swing broke. I was afraid I wouldn't find a replacement. And there is was on Amazon! It came sooner than expected. It was easy to put together. | 1 |
tasteless, and too spicy
i ordered them and opened 1 and tried to eat itbut found it to be really tasteless and way too spicy.my husband almost threw up and said throw the rest in the garbage.next time i will buy solo and try it before ordering quantity. | 0 |
Delicious and Addicting
OMG, sooo yummy that ever since it arrived I've been eating 1 can/day (I'm not admitting to more...). This is chewy, but GOOD chewy, not as in rubber chewy or bad steak chewy, but in yummy, "chew 3-4 times" kind of chewy. It is very delicious like I said, but watch out for the teeny red peppers! Not every can contains those peppers, but one can had a couple of them and I accidentally (read: blindly gulping down the entire can) chewed on one of them and yeah... yikes. If you don't eat the peppers (I suggest you don't), I personally don't think it's too spicy in any measure (just a bit of kick to it), but I like spicy food... | 1 |
Good deal for people who are making a Terminator collection
Good bargain but get it with this in mind. You are buying Terminator, a great classic, and getting Robocop for free. | 1 |
2-Hit Cyborg Combo!!
(I meant 4 stars, not 2. Oops) If you grew up in the 1980's like me, than this particular Double Feature Editon should seem very savory. Although 2 very different films thematically, both Terminator and Robocop deal with very cool cyborg stories. I remember loving both these films as a kid and the concept of having both these films on one package is a no brainer, especially if you don't have these in your DVD library already. Bottom line, you won't get more wall-to-wall cyborg action in one package than this beauty! | 0 |
Not what I expected
I was Really looking forward to reading this book, but rather than finding a book describing various types of actual or theoretical weapons that would or could be used in space I found a left wing political diatribe of why war is bad. Don't get me wrong I truly believe war is horrible. I have both physical and psychological scars to prove it. Way too much political wrangling and not enough science. Disappointed..... | 0 |

ONE OF THE GREATEST BOOKS ON DRAWING EVER WRITTEN
I DON'T KNOW WHAT BOOKS YOU HAVE READ ON DRAWING BEFORE BUT THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS ON DRAWING EVER WRITTEN. ANOTHER EXCELLENT BOOK IS BY HIS FORMER STUDENT ANTHONY RYDER ENTITLED THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO FIGURE DRAWING. EACH IS INCREDIBLY DETAILED IN ITS DESCRIPTIONS ON TECHNIQUE AS WELL AS THE LEVEL OF ATTENTION AND CARE REQUIRED TO CREATE BEAUTIFUL DRAWINGS. IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO HAVE A CAREER IN REPRESENTATIONAL ART YOU HAVE GOT TO READ AT LEAST ONE OF, IF NOT BOTH THESE BOOKS. OTHERWISE YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY "MORE MONEY" FOR A GUIDE TO DRAWING BY MARCUS MANDELOWITZ WHICH SAYS THE SAME THINGS, IT JUST TAKES LONGER TO SAY THEM AND MAKES YOU PAY MORE FOR IT. ANY OTHER BOOK IS PROBOBLY NOT WORTH BUYING. | 1 |
Nothing special
This books is a collection of the author's ideas about drawing. It's subtitled "a revolutionary right-brain approach to figure drawing". I understand that some people really liked the book, but it was only very few parts of it that I found useful, and none of it revolutionary. I'm not saying that this book contains nothing useful. I'm sure that if one studies it carefully, one will learn a few things. But it's nothing special and I really don't understand what the rave reviews are about. | 0 |
My boyfriend is still my boyfriend thanks to this book.
My summary says it all. I found myself becoming angry about every little thing my boyfriend did, and through this book, came to understand a) why he did the things he did, b)why I reacted the way I did, and c) how those two factors relate. Now, I've learned to change the way I react, and as a result, he's gradually changing the way he acts. He's not even concious that there's been a huge change in the way we relate to each other, but what he does know is that he's happier (and so am I). | 1 |
Redundant, redundant, redundant
As a class assignment, we were to read a specific John Gray book and present it to the class. I started off by reading "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus", the orginal book. I must say that I found it very educational and it has helped in my relationship. After reading the first of the series, I was looking forward to reading the "Men, Women, and Relationships" book. The book overall was a letdown. I did find some information helpful but I also found that same information repeated throughout the book. John Gray could've made the book one-third of its length and it would have included all the same lessons in male-female relationships. | 0 |
after the horse is out of the barn ...Mr. Gray?
I read this book and my emmediate thought was "damage controll" ,a book to clean up the mess pop-culture and John Gray are already responsible for.The book is just another addition to the ongoing parade of Gray books which lack any new case to present,it reads like the scrambled and re-edited words of all his other books.Making a long story short - John Gray is doing nothing more than selling the same plot under different titles. | 0 |
Don't Bother
I read the great reviews for this book and couldn't wait to look at all the pictures. But the bouquets are not very pretty and there aren't many different styles to choose from. I recommend The Knot's book on flowers instead. | 0 |
Not worth the money
Although I absolutely love the bouquet shown on the cover, I would have to say that the rest of the bouquets pictured are not worth the investment in the book. It seemed that most were outdated or simply lacked creativity. I was searching for contemporary or even classic looking designs and this was not the book for me. Sunflowers or wildflowers were shown quite often, so if you are searching for a book that hightlights these types of flowers, you might consider it. Skip it if you are looking for new ideas, red or deep colored flowers, or anything related to other wedding flower pieces (no arrangements, few corsages, limited bridesmaid flowers). | 0 |
Wonderful Beautiful Floral Arrangements
This is wonderful when you are trying to consider what types of flowers work best for the time of year you are getting married. I truly loved the variety of the bouquets including the boutonnieres. The only thing I would fix is that there was not enough information on how to put each of the bouquets together. There were alot of beautiful photographs but not enough advice or DIY information. | 1 |

Very good, but a little too sparse on construction details
A really lovely book with a wide selection of floral styles presented. I would have appreciated it far more if it spent less time on beautiful photographs and more on how-to advice. I had hoped to find equally good photos demonstrating techniques like wiring, taping and wrapping handles, but by the time I reached the back of the book, I found only simple instructions and minimal explanatory photos. | 1 |
Get it in stores if you really want it.
This can be found still in department or toy stores. I would suggest getting it there. But you get what you ask for. It's 3 1/2 inches tall or so, it comes with the E-11 typical Imperial firearm, and all of his joints move. But it can't take a ton of rough play though. I wouldn't spend more than $8 on this item. | 1 |
This BOOK SUCKS
This book sucks balls, it deals with homosexual and really gay text. The way the author refers to the son in the story makes me feel that he himself hates his son. the fact the writer is crippled makes the story really gay.Find something better to do michael lane like ug your son. | 0 |
This BOOK SUPPORTS CRIMINAL ACTS ON ANIMALS!
My dad states in the book that he enjoys engaging in intimate situations with his pet dog. He also makes notice that my younger siblings also join in the fun. Reading this in the book made me sick, and i am telling all you out there that in the book Jarrod Tan is portayed after my sick father. So when you read this book and Jarrod Tan talks about mating with the alien he really means my dog and my brothers and I. | 0 |
Better late than never!
Unreleased in '61 when this session was recorded "The Waiting Game" was worth the wait. Joining Brooks' tenor for the are Kenny Drew on piano, Philly Joe Jone on drums, Wilbure Ware on bass, and the underrated Johnny Coles on trumpet. In the tradition of the most inspired Blue Note sessions this disc swings throughout! Jones/Drew/Ware form a rock solid base and back spirited solos by Brooks and Coles, as well as for Drew's funky hard bop piano. This is a great session by one of Jazz's potential greats. Brooks came and left too quickly to have any great lasting effect, but this disc along with his work with Kenny Burrell, Jimmy Smith, and his own sessions give us a glimpse at what might have been. | 1 |

whom do i see about getting the 3 hours of my llife back?
this is a great book...if you 15 and you've finaly run out of ravenwolf books to read ...otherwise...save your money. While some of his visualization excersises are interesting, its pretty obvious, even before you read the rest of his books, that he's building up to admiting he's not a wiccan or even pagan, he's heading for satanist...or a drug treatment center, whichever comes first. And I have no problem with that, but lets call this what it is...pandering to disafected teenagers, angsty 20 somethings and bitter 30's. If you need something to put on your coffee table to annoy visiting Jehovah's witneses or to scare your parents...this is the author and these are the books, but if your looking for useful information.. its not in here. | 0 |

tantalizing work, as usual
Konstantinos is one of a kind...entertaining, yet quite informative in a Dark, Humerous way. ths tome is no exception. his experience in his work shines thru the pages of this tome. none of the babbling hogwash, just the facts. this is a real ride, folks. i recommend this for anyone that is interested in a "true" walk on the Darkside. | 1 |
A must have for anyone interested in Dark Paganism
When I read "Nocturnal Witchcraft", I felt that I had come home. Finally, someone had the wits to write what I felt I could not put into words. When I heard that there was a follow up to it, I had to buy. I was not dissapointed. Konstantinos has written what I feel to be some of the most definitive works on the subject of Dark Paganism. He has an interesting insight on practicing ritual and Magick with a Nocturnal or Gothic flair, and has been a trailblazer for many other books now being published with the Dark Pagan in mind. I say it's a must have for a well rounded library. | 1 |
The Companion Book
This book was intended as a companion to the author's other book Nocturnal Witchcraft. Konstantinos founded his own new branch of the religion of witchcraft that was based on the dark side of Wicca you don't usually hear about in Gardenarian, etc denominations. Full details are given as to how one would initiate themselves into this denomination. I think Konstantinos is a really under rated author who has a cult reputation for putting stereotypes like this gothic version of witchcraft and vampires into his own sect. | 1 |

Morgenstern revolutionized our business
Nearly a year ago, I bought Never Check E-mail in the Morning and implemented the practices prescribed throughout the book into our busy real estate office. We were drowning in in our crazy workloads, and struggling under the pressure of always being available to our clients. With e-mail and BBs you can never turn off, especially in real estate where it's completely client-based. Morgenstern's techniques really revolutionized the way we did business and helped us to better manage clients' needs and our own sanity. Her strategies are so practical and address all the problems of working in a 24/7 global market. I definitely recommend it! | 1 |
Disappointed. No useful advice.
I bought this book for myself, expecting to find some useful advice to help me organize my day a little better and to stay focused on priorities. I have been in management for 12 years and I expected this book to offer some new insights into time management and other daily challenges. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed and struggled to find some useful advice within the first half and have since put it down.The book seems to target a junior audience with a certain type of personality that is more focused on fitting in and accommodating others, rather than those focused on leadership and results.The book itself feels really cheap. I is printed on that cheap news-print paper like those crossword puzzle books. | 0 |
Scrapple at Best
This book gushes of leftovers. It is a very wordy read and doesn't get to any practical sort of information until the latter half, most of which is not only a repeat of earlier books, but also common sense stuff (this coming from someone who doesn't instinct-wise have a firm grasp on time management) that i have gleaned from many other sources, and in a more concise format. although her other books are great, i don't recommend this one. | 0 |
Gave it away the next day
This book begins with a questionaire to rate your level of organization at work. I filled it out, scored it, and promptly donated it to my library. I am obviously more organized within my work environment than at home. Only buy this book if you are a mess at work and unable to complete projects on time. | 0 |
How a title can stop you from buying a book...
The title of this book is INSANE. Anyone with a real job HAS to check their email in the morning. I get meeting invites for later that day, specs from clients, project updates, and meeting cancellations.If I did not check this first thing I would miss meetings, p-off clients and probably lose my job.Stupid stupid stupid. | 0 |

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY
I've had this item for only 5 months and all of a sudden it stopped working. I sent it for repairs and first you have to pay $50 for the company to just look at it and diagnose the problem. Next, they tell you you will have to pay between $300 to $5000 to recover your data if it works. The nice thing about this whole ordeal was they would only charge you if the recovery is successful. I lost a lot of my pictures and videos that I cant recover again. I am very disappointed and will never buy from this company again. So, I'm out the $127.99 that I paid for the hard drive, $50 for the diagnostic check, the shipping charges to send to them and to return back to me and alot of my memories....Dont waste your money!!! | 0 |
Unreliable
Sadly I had the same problem with my drive, after about a year it suddenly isnt recognized under XP anymore, and Vista only sees a empty uninitialized drive. All data gone.The best thing is, I opened the case to extract the hard drive and connect it directly to the motherboard as the built in USB controller does not allow any recovery software to access the drive directly, and the hard drive is encrypted with a key that only the USB controller knows ! | 0 |
Maxtor 500 GB USB 2.0
BUY THIS HARD DRIVE, if you want to waste $100. I bought a 500 GB hard drive from Maxtor 1 year ago for about $100 that looked exactly like this one. It stopped working after 7 or 8 months. I lost 484 GB of pictures, games, movies, books, and documentary videos (my 400 GB BBC and Discovery video collection!). My friend also bought the exact 500 GB hard drive to store his Japanese animations, and it also stopped working under a year. If you want to lose a $100, BUY THIS HARD DRIVE. | 0 |
more of the same
Like other reviews you'll read here, DON'T BUY THIS DRIVE. The cheap plastic shell should have been a give-away, but this thing is cheap and not to be trusted with any important info. I had mine about 6 months, and it quit working. Not worth the chunk of change they want to recover my info. Spend the money on a better, more robust system. | 0 |
Stormy Weekend, A plethora of music
Four CDs contain 40 great memorable songs. The studio orchestra---[[ASIN:B000FDFKP2 Stormy Weekend with 101 Strings Orchestra] always produce great music. The songs range from Can You Read My Mind, (the love theme frpm Superman) to Unforgetable, The Girl From Ipanema, Moon River, and Evergreen (from A star is Born). I don't understand why the collection is called Stormy Weekend, but the songs make for good listening no matter what the weather. I enjoy listening to this assembly of nostalgic songs every weekend. | 1 |
ROMANTIC MUSIC
VERY NICE ROMANTIC MUSIC FROM THE OLD ORCHESTRA OF 101 STRINGS NOW PRODUCED FOR ANOTHER COMPANY. GOOD PRICE AND GREAT OLD MELODIES. RECORDING, SOME TIMES, IS NOT LIKE THE OLD ALSHIRE. | 1 |
Worthless Case
If you care about not scratching up your iPod, you won't buy this case. I was excited there was finally a case for the 30 gig at the Apple Store. I bought it, and the moment I put my ipod in, I knew there was a problem. First, the case only gives you access to the hold button, which is pretty useless since you have no way to see the screen or access the other buttons. Second, (and most important), since you do have to pull the ipod in and out to access the other buttons, they case grabs in a way that scratches up your ipod!I just put it in and pulled it out ONCE and there were scratches all over the back. I promptly returned the item.I could see maybe buying this if you don't care about seeing your screen, being able to select your song without pulling it out, or if the scratching issue is not a big deal to you, but I'd say to save your money and wait for a better case. | 0 |
A disappointing read
The characters were likeable and the basic story a good idea. Way too predicable- what I read in the first 50 pages- the remaining 300 did nothing to surprise me. Too many descriptions of street scenes and internal dialogue slowed the pace down to a crawl. I tend to read romances in 2-3 afternoons. This took almost 3 weeks. | 0 |
Wonderful historical detail
I zoomed through the first half of this book thanks to the great historical detail. I really felt that "you are there" feeling thanks to Ms. Birmingham's great powers of description. But then it took me forever to finish the 2nd half due to, as the first reviewer said...Nothing happened. I realized all that had happened really was the hero & heroine got closer, but there were no external events, and way too many descriptions of her outfits, and what they ate for dinner.I also appreciate the fact she didn't depict them bickering over Nothing, as so many romance couples seem to do. The H&H; were both likable. | 1 |
Szell in Italy
This budget-line title from the Aura label features one of my favorite conductors, George Szell, leading the Cleveland Orchestra in live recordings made for Radiotelevisione della Svizzera Italiana. The performances are of Schumann's 2nd Symphony and Berlioz's "Marche hongroise" from "La Damnation de Faust," both recorded in 1957, and Debussy's "La Mer" which was recorded in 1968. Surprisingly, the great Friedrich Gulda even joins on piano for "La Mer." The sound is very good, but doesn't come close to matching the same quality as Szell's first-rate studio accounts currently available on Sony. It is a fun disc for sure, but by no means definitive. | 1 |
Funny...A good satire of the genre.
I collect the old Dick and Jane readers and was just shown this book by a friend. Hillarious take off on the series. I think it was very creative and would be enjoyed by any "Baby Boomer" who used the Dick and Jane readers or anyone familiar with them. Even though it is out of print, I hope to acquire a copy. | 1 |
Goofy, fun, not to be mistaken as reader
You need to take a second look at this book to figure out it's NOT the usual Dick and Jane. Dick and Jane have grown up. It's listed as "humor" not "school book." Some of the humor is a sad reflection of today's reality - like the visit to Grandma that doesn't happen. Overall, it's a spoof, weird, goofy, funny, amusing, and not necessarily suitable for children. | 1 |
Nice to see this updated...
I saw this on Amazon and was just a little curious... I grew up on Dick and Jane. I learned to read from them. | 1 |
pukey
My 8 year daughter and I read this book tonight, and both thought it was bad. My other daughter (5) had learned to read with the original books (as had myself), and thought this would be the same type of book. I was very disappointed in this book, and would never recommend it. The part with the boys playing with guns and shooting each other (as Mr. T) was pathetic. I'm sorry I don't agree with the other reviews - but, I thought as a book to teach young ones to read, it was not suitable. | 0 |
poster
I am sorry that I didnt' pay attention to the dimensions of the poster and just assumed the movie poster was full size. I was in a hurry when I purchased and that is my fault. It's a little poster, but it is excellent quality and exactly as described. Super quick shipping. | 1 |
this animated series has been rated CRAP
As an HUGE fan of the series, I have to warn you that this is nothing more than a cheap attempt to make a quick buck on a popular series. Its apparent from the very begining that the producers & writers for this cartoon series have NEVER seen a single episode of Stargate SG1. They DONT stick to the story line, the team looks like they escaped from the Galaxy High cartoon series from the mid 80s. The intro theme song could be used to torture prisoners & small animals. MGM should be ashamed of itself for allowing this series to be made. & heres a final fact about this series: the ONLY things it has in common with the Sci-Fi channel series, is A: the name Stargate, & B: the Stargate itself. & on a final note. for those of you who said this cartoon series features great animation, characters & stories, your either A: Employees of MGM, or B: Dont know what good animation is.Final Verdict:SG-1 Fans should AVOID THIS LIKE THE PLAGUE!!! | 0 |
cartoon mockery of SG-1
i havent bought this title yet but have seen the episodes off the TV. I have to say unless your a die-hard stargate fan, akid with a real imagination or realy bored then dont buy this! Since im a fan of stargate then i will be buying this ;), basically its a cartoon mockery of Sg1 and the producers of sg1 has said this is not worthy of our stargate franchise. FOREVER STARGATE! and ATLANTIS SOON !1/5 | 0 |
Great Tapes
This is a great brand of recording tapes. I love the sound quality and the fact that each side records an hour each. | 1 |
The need for 120 min. cassetts
When trying to tape a hour documtary it is great to have a blank 60 minute on one side cassette to record on. | 1 |

UNDER STRESS ORDERED THESE THINKING THEY WERE WHITE PAPER BAGS.
Under a time crunch preparing for a wedding candy/dessert buffet table, I was looking for this shape bag in paper. Who knows what time of the midnight hours that I ordered these, but thought they were looked like paper and they were cello. I wanted to stamp the bags with a couple specific logo and this just would not work with the cello bags. I hope that I can use them sometime in the future. | 0 |
