Question: Exciting book about an exciting time

Well written. I felt I was in the crew boat during the races. Great historical subplot.

This is a nice hardcover with colorful illustrations, and the music on the CD sounds professional and clear. You get a lot of content for your dollar: 20 songs in English and 20 in Chinese. The price is worth it for the CD alone! And you've heard many of these songs before, so it's easy to sing along.

I find the pages just a little too crammed and the typeface too small. This allows more songs to fit into the pages, creating good value, but that makes it hard for toddler (19 mo) to ask for one particular song (or for me to read the lyrics when the lights are dim). The pictures are vivid and interesting, though that can make the text even harder to read (for example, when printed black-on-blue).

The songs are organized thematically (Outside, Inside, Party, Play, Night), but I think there could have been even closer alignment among them. "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star," "Happy Birthday to You," and "Heads, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes" are matched with their Chinese translations, but more pairings would have been nicer for purposes of language acquisition of parent as well as child. To be honest, I'm not entirely sure why there are English songs in here that aren't translations of the Chinese. If I wanted music in English, I'd go buy that separately - as nice as these songs are, there are better from American artists.

Overall, this book-CD combination is well worth its value - I recommend it, despite the criticisms above. So far, my son has not been smitten with this book, but he's still at the stage where a single-song book, or just humming a tune, is his best way of asking for music. Maybe as he gets older this book will become more fun for him.

Question: Wont power on after only 3yrs of intermittent use.

Purchased July 2014 from Amazon. Now October 2017 no longer will power on either plugin (using a surge protector or without) or with batteries. Adapter checked and functioning well. Obviously an internal circuitry problem. Certainly would not expect what is touted to be a high quality radio to last only 3 years, Would definitely not recommend,

This case works great. Used my own anchors because I wasn't so sure about the included hardware (goes for most items I buy). The door is a little flimsy but I expected it at this price point. Overall its a well built piece. Dont plan on using the lock feature but its nice to have. Wish the back was more of a padded area to pin, but its ok.

Question: Remote Desktop / Technical Support

Pros: This router is fast.  The GUI works well.
Cons:  Documentation and on-line documentation.
First, contacting technical support is a little tricky.  When you call their English line, you hear what sounds like a busy signal.  So if your not patient (who is when you resort to contacting them) your inclination is to hang up. However, if you stay on the line the busy signal turns into a ring after a few seconds...then you get the recording that says, "Please stay on the line..etc..".
On-line Chat is also a little tricky. When you attempt to chat from their website it says, "Leave a message, all representatives are busy."  Well, you're inclination is to type something somewhere to leave a message, but there isn't a field to do so....unless you leave that screen open and wait.  Then after a minute or two, the screen changes to where you can enter some information and eventually you are able to chat with someone (like Raj - who was patient and helpful).
Something that someone might find helpful is using the Port-Forwarding screen for Remote Desktop.  It works and it works well - contrary to the online forums that you might see.  My specific issue was that I could easily use the Remote Desktop from within my LAN but coming from the internet, it wasn't happening.  If you are using Kaspersky anti-virus (or perhaps something similar) you must go in on the computer you're looking to access and change the Settings (which is in small lettering at the very bottom of the screen) then open the Protection Center and then scroll down to the Firewall and then Configure Packet Rules and edit Remote Desktop to "allow" action.

These are the best knee pads out there. Any Derby players should spend the extra money to protect your knees!

Question: Great product for a very cheap price.

These work just as great as the cartridges that came with my printer and are WAY cheaper.

Excellent price point.  I bought this as a backup vise JIC something were to go wrong with my main tying vise when I travel. Doubles as a guest vise for my buddies when we get together and tie.  Here in Colorado we fish lots of tailwaters using small bugs. 18-24 and it works just fine.  No issues, strong solid and reliable.

Question: Shipped fast and overall satisfied with my usage

Althought I didn't use the textbook much, the quality was decent and no complaints from me. Shipped fast and overall satisfied with my usage.

Since I've been having no luck at the grocery stores (I've checked in 3 states!) and my family's addicted to this delicious peanut butter, I'm so glad to find it on line.  We're loving our first 6-pack and will likely order more so we never run out.  According to the mftr it's still being made, but I've not been able to find or order it through my grocers (tho they've tried).  Great product, great taste!

Question: I have grown to enjoy Skelly, his self-analyses

I have grown to enjoy Skelly, his self-analyses, his love of handy, fast food and drink, and heck, even his love of hill-climbing and cricket.  As an American from the Southern US, I've started to give a begrudging respect to the trials and tribulations of those from the Northern UK.  A fishing guide at heart, he manages to solve some interesting cases. His two underlings are cleverly portrayed, and well-suited to his free-wheeling style.  I have read 5 or so of his exploits, an it still isn't getting stale.

Carry on!

I read the Scarpetta series because of the ongoing lives of the charactures.  With Patricia Cornwell's descriptive writing, you are in the middle of everything.  I enjoy her books and I already can't wait for the next one.

Question: It was easy to put together and for the price of it

It was easy to put together and for the price of it , it was cheap . My only issue is there isn't any replacement parts for it and it is now a leaning tower of kitty. My cats favorite spot was the hammock and naturally since it was being used so much it broke and now they can't use it . After having it under a year I notice everything is loose no matter how many time I take it apart and tighten it . I wish you had replacement parts for sale because they would love to have a hammock again . Looks like I'll have to buy another cat condo to replace this one .

Awesome ;)

Question: Euphoria-Inducing & Affordable!

My two tabby kids (1.5 years old) go absolutely wild for this toy!  Purchased last week and the mere sound of the attached bell sends them into paroxyms of frantic joy. Even once tired out, they are reluctant to see me put it away (and put it away I must).

These two are fairly discerning (read: annoyingly finicky) when it comes to toys but this is a real winner. Well-constructed, affordable, and including a bonus bird-fish (strange creature), I find this a real bargain and the best new cat toy I've purchased in a while.

My little monsters rate this 4/4 paws.

I recently purchased LEGO Harry Potter for the PSP to play on a few hour long road trip while the wife drove.  Yes, I'm 26 years old and bought LEGO Harry Potter, what can I say, I'm a fanboy. Anywhos, on the rant.  I feel so cheated out of my hard earned $$$.  If you are expecting the same level of fun and enjoyment you got out of the other LEGO games on PSP, don't be.  Unlike LEGO Star Wars 2, Batman, and Indiana Jones, which were just like their console counterparts aside from a graphics downgrade, this game is the exact opposite.  The camera is fixed in a 3/4 overhead perspective ala Diablo.  You can't freely jump, the framerate is about 30fps, the graphics are bland, the music has an odd high pitch to it, the game is incredibly easy (even easier then any other LEGO game), the story segment video is choppy (PSP loading issue), there are massive cuts in movie content that were not carried over, and worst off the game just holds your hand the entire way through telling you exactly what to do in every level and puzzle.  Everyone should just stay away from this version and pick it up on a console instead.  unfortunatly for those wanting some LEGO Harry Potter action in their hands on the go are out of luck.

Question: and the other one is a very nice Bose (also with the old Iphone 4 interface connector)

This one is going back today. I have a couple of stand alone speakers. One is a ICraig (cheap but it does the job, supported my old Iphone4  the 80 pin connector), and the other one is a very nice Bose (also with the old Iphone 4 interface connector). The Nyrius Songo Link Wireless device did not work at all with the ICraig and it only works on the Bose as long as the speaker is not plugged into the charger. For a couple of extra dollars I strongly recommend the CoolStream Duo device. It worked flawlessly from the very first time. I think I will eventually learn my lesson of not to buy for a few bucks less when experience tells me that a couple of dollar can buy good quality.
By the way, the Bluetooth connected right away from either speaker, but music will only play in the Bose when it wasn't charging.

Very handy refernce but really they need to provide an electronic version that is not CD or online based. There are many formats available now many platforms - iPhone, kindle etc. There is simply no excuse for such a reference which is already in an electronic format to be unavailable to mobile platforms.

Question: Entry level model worth the money, not sure I'd buy one of the $700 versions

Vacuum does the job well, though not without faults. Absolutely a time saver, and runs without issue 4 out of 5 times. Occasionally the robot gets stuck under a chair, or behind furniture...but you can easily remove it from these situations, hit "go" and it will continue on its way without further adieu. Definitely does a good job picking up pet hair on both hard floors and carpet.

I bought these for my 10 yr old son because he is learning to play the guitar. He loves them and the way they feel. Very light and easy to use. Big bonus for him is that they have Pokemon on them. Highly recommend these.

Question: Mostly Enjoyable Pride and Prejudice

Oh wow. Where do I begin? This book was awesome when it wasn't trying to be a bad retelling of Pride and Prejudice. There was so much exposition, I skimmed a lot of her sitting there thinking about all the stuff that had happened that I didn't care about. I didn't like her until the last ten percent of the book because the retelling was just so superficial and there was so little dialogue.

The language was stilted because people don't talk like that, but I do like the idea of Darcy in jeans and a t-shirt. And sneakers. I loved that Lizzie was a pianist, loved every scene about her playing and loved the twist with his mother and the Will face-off in the end. I really enjoyed the end. It made the rest of the plodding, rather painful retelling almost worth it.

One little thing, Darcy wasn't rude enough. He was perfect except for one slightly askance look the first time they met. And yes, they used words like askance. Often, and would you mind giving me the pleasure of a word? Three and a half stars for this one.

Works great and solves a huge problem we were having with having only one AV input on the TV. We now have a Wii, PS2 and VCR hooked up at one time. We will get another one in the future for the N64, and SNES.

Question: Do not pass up this book.

I'll keep this short and sweet..this is a good book. The story is familiar but told in a very entertaining way. As large as the book is I finished it in two days, it keeps you involved and interested, most recommended. Second..do not get the 'e' version of this book. This is the kind of book that needs to be held. This is how books should be published. The paper is heavy and slightly cream colored, of a high quality. The print is easily read and properly sized. The binding is excellent. It is worth the price. You will not be disappointed.

I have only just become acquainted with these songs but at first look, they are clearly a wonderful performance opportunity for a baritone with the requisite range.  Full of expressive colors and engaging texts, Mr. Ferrante's song cycle allows for a truly uplifting collaborative performance.

Question: Not quite what I thought it was hoping for

I normally love Mallory Monroe's books.  However, this story sort of fell flat.  Many new characters were introduced that didn't appear to have any real meaning.

Until recently, I had only ever used plastic screen protectors of various styles. I ordered the NOOT tempered glass screen protector for my girlfriend's S4 after I tried (a different company's) tempered glass screen protector for my new LG G3 and completely fell in love with the much better look and feel of tempered glass.

Since my girlfriend has had her new NOOT screen protector she has actually raced about it several times. She is especially impressed with how it feels "even better than the glass on the phone itself", and that it didn't scratch or break when she dropped it on concrete. She also mentioned it was packaged excellently, leaves much fewer fingerprints than her old plastic protector, and doesn't conflict with her phone case at all.

She says the only issue she has with it was difficulty installing it, and that one small air bubble in the corner still hasn't worked it's way out yet. She says she doesn't believe it is an issue though, since other protectors she has used were also hard to install.

Personally I was pleased with the quick shipping and especially the lower cost compared to other similar quality protectors.

Overall a great product, good shipping, very affordable price and good followup from you guys at bubble make me a happy customer!

Question: Canon's Warranty Program is Defective

Be aware that if your Canon camera fails within the first year of ownership, you may be charged $109, ("Flat rate repair charge, + shipping") to get your camera repaired. If you are talking about a $200 camera, would you pay that? If you are deciding between two different brands, factor this in.

This was a direct replacement to the original battery that came with my Black & Decker Firestorm Cordless Drill/Driver.  It fit perfectly and came with a full charge, ready-to-use.  It was exactly what I hoped I was purchasing.  It works in form, fit, and function!

The second installment in Koontz's Frankenstein series. It picks up right where the first book left off. O'Conner Carson and Deacullion begin to prepare for Victors attack on mankind. Meanwhile Victor himself is begning to lose control of his New Race.

This book wasn't as exciting as the first however is still very good. Its a very good transition to the conclusion of the story (which I believe will be called Dead or Alive). The last few chapters of this book leave you wanting more and craving the third and final installment in Deans take on this classic story.

The only problem I've had with this series is the 3rd book was supposed to be out this past summer (06) yet still hasn't been released. According to a UK website its due out there the end of May. Weather this is true for the US I still don't know nor can I seem to find and info on the US release. If you are interested in reading this series I suggest waiting til the 3rd book is released as this one will leave you wanting to read more and waiting for a conclusion on which you don't have any real information on its release is really annoying.

Question: It's Diet Coke! What's left to say?

I'm housebound and living alone so I finally found a somewhat reasonable way to get some Diet Coke sent to me. It's the same stuff you can buy at the supearket much cheaper, but given my circumstances it was the best deal around.

Decent quality, on the small side. I have a 1yr old who goes to daycare and sometimes takes breakfast and lunch sometimes just lunch and snacks. A 1yr old doesn't eat much but it's still hard to cram it all in there in addition to a sippy cup and ice pack. But she likes it and it serves the purpose for now. I have the same issue most other reviewers had, the actual ponies are peeling off the front. Not terribly yet but it has started

Question: Decent little guy... not best-in-class, but that's ok

PRO: Small - unobtrusive. Simple to pair with your phone, and picks up the music easily. Nice alternative if you don't have bluetooth built into your car.

CON: Very small. Has to be connected to AUX port via a wire - but the wire is long. Microphone is not great.

VERDICT: Not bad. Pick it up if you want to give it a spin - it's certainly the right price.

Pros: Locks on can, easy release with button.
Cons: Does not always open some cans but can't figure out why. Magnet very ineffective at retrieving lid. Usually doesn't cut all the way around, leaving lid attached so must jiggle lid for full release, thus leaving sharp point. Handle small and not as easy to turn as other brands like Oxo.

Would not recommend. Too late to return.

Question: Beautiful, wistful, and sad

Fabulous book! This is a heartfelt, poignant portrayal of a womans reaction to meeting the man with whom her husband had had a love affair during their college years. Told through letters to her husbands former flame, we get a sense of a woman who yearns for love and connection with this man who had once captured her husbands heart. The letters give a sense of intimate storytelling that is laced with both hopefulness and realism. The effect is an illustration of a three-way affair that would not necessarily end happily ever after. Highly recommended for readers who like their romance dripping in loads of gorgeous melancholy.

What a story with twists and turns you aren't expecting.  At first it was a little slow, but I really got into the story and loved the main characters and though it didn't end quite the way you wanted it to, it was very sweet.  I did think the ending with the sister was just a little abrupt.

Question: I read this in 2 sittings!  I couldn't put it down.

I had tears in my eyes as I thought how much this family was going through. I thought of what I went through with my own divorce and how I doubted if I could have done what Karen did for the sake of her 2 children.  Reading this also brought back memories of what I went through caring for my elderly mother. No one knows the difficulty of caring for a terminally ill loved one until they experience it themselves. Karen's story of how she chose to care for her  ex-husband, who was dying from cancer, after their divorce and how he treated her, was heroic.  Anyone who is a caregiver should read this book.  I guess  I will have to read her next book to see how they all are doing.  I hope James and Kate are doing well.  They will have some scars, but with a strong mother like Karen who loves them so much... I hope they will be okay.

This is my first book I have had the privilage to 'live' through in the entire Kryon series, and needless to say it will not be the last. I purchased all of the other ten on line immediately for the uplifting messages alone  are worth the price of gold. How many people wouldn't want to know why they are on earth, about thier true relationship to God, about their life scripts they help create and how to deal with thier loved ones on earth and why so often we are faced with diffulcult lessons on our trek through the other side of the veil. I know I enjoy knowing what in my heart I know to be true. Their are others who will always, doubt, attack the works and be in denial but that is what free will is about but for those who are in the quest to expand thier consciousness this is the way. God bless Kryon and Lee for their hard work in putting this infomration out for ready or not GOOD NEWS is comming whether people want to accept it or not.

Question: For once the 5 star reviews have been earned

After reading the awful 'Meeting Miss Mystic' I had my doubts about this book before I bought it. Added to that I was worried that there were only 5 star reviews, that's usually a bad sign. However this book was amazing and I loved it. It was pure romance and the style reminded me of my previous favourite book by this author, 'Playing for Love at Deep Haven' - this one is now my favourite.

+++Minor Spoilers+++
It's shortish and there are lots of summaries so I'll just say that it contains all my favourite themes in a book: sexy, protective, driven and alpha-ish H; smart, likeable, loyal h and a lovely, lovely romance, built up beautifully. I really enjoyed the sexual tension, the possible issues that could lead to a big misunderstanding but didn't. The dialogue between the main characters was incredible and beautifully written.

I can't believe I'm gushing like this but the story deserves it and has restored my faith in Ms Regnery. I'm look forward to the next in this series.

This bag holds a great deal of stuff considering it qualifies as a carry-on when flying but if you pack it too full, it may not fit in the overhead compartment.  Experienced this on 2 flights already so from now on, will pack it lightly.  It rolls well, it's lightweight and sturdy.  Overall, quite pleased with this bag.

Question: Excellent Bike / Hike Tights

These are excellent bike or hike tights; I liked them so much I bought a second pair. I'm a guy, five foot 11 inches tall, and weigh 185 lbs. The first pair I bought were size medium and were slightly short, but still okay. The second pair were size large and are even better, as they cover my ankles better. These are great tights, the price is right, delivery and packing were great!

First off, it bears mentioning that I'm a huge fan of the series, so this is coming from the perspective of somebody who loves UC1, 2, and 3, and was hoping for more of the same. I've played each of those games about 30 times from start to finish, and I probably have the levels memorized better than some Naughty Dog employees (that's a slight exaggeration... possibly). If you did not like the previous games, you probably won't like this one any better, and I wouldn't spend time trying to convince you otherwise. However, if you're a UC fan... you're in for a treat; a magnificent reward for your 5 years of patience.

I expected UC4 to be an improvement over the previous entries, given the additional technology and experience on hand for Naughty Dog. But I wasn't expecting the improvements to be just... so... great. The thing I love foremost about this series is the strength of the characters. Nathan, Elena, and Sully have almost become like family to me, and I get such a kick out of having their company over the course of the campaigns. In 30 years of gaming, I don't think I've ever actually cared about the characters in a game - except for UC. This fourth entry takes that investment in character development to a whole new level, one rarely even seen in film. If you've been adventuring with Nate and Elena over the last nine years, just wait until you witness their interactions in their own home, playing PS1 classics on the couch and trying to dodge dish duty.

Story and character are my top priorities in UC, but fortunately the game plays as flawlessly as ever, with mechanics even being better than they were in UC3. Platforming has been overhauled, making for an experience that's much more challenging (and fun) than before, as you have to be very careful, quick to react, and have proper planning. Unlike before, there's a very good chance you will die a whole lot while swinging and leaping about like a crazy monkey. Stop-and-pop gameplay is still a blast, with vastly improved enemy AI and a more dynamic flavor that leads to greater challenge.

Finally, I need to mention the game's visuals, which are positively astounding, and really put me "there". The character animations during cinematic scenes are the best I've ever seen (even better than The Order), beautifully conveying the emotions of these beloved characters. There is, of course, a slight drop off from those sequences to the live gameplay, but the game looks remarkable every step of the way. Go ahead and zoom in on the texture of that carpet or the grain of that wood... rest assured, it will look amazing. The most impressive part of all this is the staggering attention to detail. Just wander around Nate and Elena's house, and marvel at how natural everything looks... the placement of dirty clothes on the floor, dishes in the sink, clutter in all the right places... it really puts you there, and makes you feel as if you're living these adventures with these people, not simply standing back and watching.

Naughty Dog raised the bar for adventure games with UC1 in 2007, and they just did it again with this game in 2016. Congratulations, Naughty Dog, and most of all... THANK YOU!

Question: This item was a complete joke!!!! ...

This item was a complete joke!!!!  The first page was a calendar and the last 2 pages as well.  The rest of the print was I don't know exactly..... parts of a Halloween book, blank pages, and certainly not a calendar as described.  I just can't believe that the publisher of such a product would not check it for defects or flaws and when my order was placed no one checked it even then.  What a disgrace to the item described, the publisher, and the people who fulfill these orders.  I do want the calendar complete as described and will bed returning this joke.

I bought mine from a dollar general store but this is the best organizer/ planner for me. I'm not mom but as student it's wonderful and perfect for my line of work. I will definitely be getting one for next year.

Question: Cherry 1 inch gumballs 1lb package

These gumballs come in a tall ten or eleven inch cellophane bag with just over 50 one inch balls per bag. So far I've tried just about all flavors I could find Green Apple, Grape, Cherry, Lemon, Blueberry, Orange, and Watermelon.

These were a good buy it you wanted to load up on a particular flavor or fill a gum machine with a specific color/flavor.

All these bags at the time of purchase came from Candy Gift Shop and they were all fresh balls and no stale crumblies at the bottom of the bags. These do not have the Dubble Bubble logo on them but I can confirm that they do taste great whoever it is that makes them.

Even if you didn't use them in a gumball machine, they would be good to use  for children's party's goodie bag stuffers or things like that.

This book is the best I have seen for any beginning poet. Its simply a must have!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice cover but the Orange rubber stinks.  Hoping leaving it to air out will get rid of the stink and make the cover usable.

I  sense the same energy and enthusiasm in this book as I did around 1979 when I met him personally. In this book he tells the story of his long life, starting  from boyhood, and ending with his intrernational work as a leader in the Seventh Day Adventist Church and ambassador for understanding, friendship and religions freedom. I found much of historical interest, and Christian wisdom and good common sense as well.

The BEST sunflower seeds ever - big meaty and not too salty - just perfect every time.  none of those burnt or bad tasting ones.  addicting.

The BEST of all I have tried.  I consume about 2 ounces of mixed nuts daily and have tried another brand to save "pennies". MISTAKE.  The Kirkland nuts are fresh and there is a generous amount of large cashews and other premium nuts. The other brand was stuffed with cheap peanuts.

Question: Very loud, super slow, and leaks grinds. Terrible.

I'm finally going to throw this out. It's the worst coffee maker I've ever had - very frustrating. It's really, reallly loud for starters and it's super slow and 50% of the time coffee grinds end up in the coffee because the spout tamps down the filter in such a way that it releases grinds. I will never buy a Mr. Coffee again. I've held on to it because I didn't want to feel like I wasted money but this morning I'm just done.

It made me sweat like no other from my waist!!! I love it!!! I will definitely use this with my workout routine

Question: They're so light it makes dumping them out everywhere really easy. Which makes my kids more inclined to dump ...

Got these for storage for my kids. My son is autistic, and climbs on everything. So when we got rid of his inflatable pool that was holding all the toys, we had to find a replacement that he wouldn't be able to climb on or stack on other things to climb. These hold blocks, books, stuffed animals, and everything else very well, and immediately collapse if the weight of a child is put directly on them. I ended up purchasing a second set to use in my daughter's closet. There they store clothes and shoes. In both cases the cubes have done well, and held up against the rough handling of small children. The color holds well, and hasn't shown any real wear. My only complaint is not really a complaint. They're so light it makes dumping them out everywhere really easy. Which makes my kids more inclined to dump them out all the more. Still, for the price these are a nicely-sized storage solution that is light enough for kids to use themselves. We like them.

Functional and looks amazing!  This thing is only a few months in, so we will see how it survives winter.  We're in NCal, so we don't get any real weather - that said i'm optimistic on it lasting a long time.  The fit and quality of the material are really impressive... so often we buy things and they just don't live up to the reviews or our expectations for what we paid.  Anyway, I do recommend this product - we're using it to cover a new fire pit table.  Fingers crossed this holds out.

Question: Fits my Canon 100-400mm Lens Hood like a Glove!

I keep one of my Canon bodies with me most of the time, with a Canon EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS USM Zoom lens attached to it so when wildlife happen to come by (my car, my house, where-ever I am), I'm ready.  My issue has been, do I keep the lens cap on or not when the camera is just sitting around waiting?  When it's just there in the car, or when I leave it on the table, do I leave the lens cap on?  Do you?  The Canon's 100-400mm hood is large and the lens cap is not easily removed unless you remove the hood.  So, precious time can be lost if the cap is on.

Then, I found the LensCoat Hoodie, Large Front Neoprene Lens Cap Fits Hoods from 4.25" to 4.75", Black - and wow, this is great.  The solution to my problem has been found.

This hoodie protects the lens so I don't need the lens cap for those times when it's just waiting.  It slips over the 100-400mm hood nicely.  It's elasticity makes for a nice fit on this lens.  I wondered if it would come with a draw-string, but it didn't, and it doesn't need one.  That's good, as that would slow me down when it comes time to quickly get the camera ready for an unexpected subject.  The size Hoodie for the 100-400mm Canon lens is the Large 4.25"-4.75" (the lens' hood is about 4.5" in diameter, and the hoodie is designed to stretch to that size just fine).

Goodkind does it again.  This book picks up where we left off and takes us along for a wonderful ride.  However, our heros disappear for a great portion of this book.  We learn a lot about some new characters.  So much  so, that at times you find yourself asking, "Where are Richard and  Kahlan?"  (Not to mention...Zedd, Ann, Nathan, etc.) True to form,  Goodkind wraps up some loose ends but leaves others dangling in time.  Leaving his reader wondering if this is the final book, or will he come  back with a sequel to finish all aspects of the series. Overall, it is an  entertaining piece.

Question: Great product, especially for the money

Ordered this product and received it a day later. I plugged it right into the standard iPhone wal adapter and it worked immediately. I have seen some reviews say it has to be placed just right to charge. For me it started charging just hovering over the device. Its big enough for the iPhone 8+ to sit securely. Great product, especially for the money.

This is my second pair of this style of Finns.  I love them and my feet feel great all day - even taking long walks in them.  The soles are flexible, unlike some shoes, and are long-wearing.  My sis-in-law (a retired nurse) tipped me to this brand, saying that many of her nurse friends have switched to them to save their backs and feet.  I'm sold!

Question: or worse. But it is the elephant in the room

Over-population. The root of all the Earth's problems. If the fertility rate stays the same, by 2100 the Earth may be heaving under the weight of 26 billion humans, according to the UN. Other than humans, rats, and insects, there will be no place for any other animals to live.

And yet, politicians, academics, and journalists refuse to discuss over-population for fear of being called "racist", "inhuman", or worse. But it is the elephant in the room.

I take this every day, and am hoping for a little relief from inflammation. I wish I could tell you it tasted great. It really doesn't. I mix 2 tablespoons in about 10 ounces of water and chug it down. It is very tart (thus the name Tart Cherry), and I could probably mix it with more water, but I want to get it down quickly. I don't know if it is working as yet.

Certainly not the prettiest of products nor the smallest, but it does manage to get the job done in heating up a small space.

I have been buying the multi colored ones before than they have been great. This may be a bad batch, but when I went to use one of the balls for the first time the light was already almost dead. My dog loves these and they are great for the park at night, but not worth the money if they battery is already dead.

I followed the instructions by filling the tank, turned on high, and never let it run dry.  By mid day 2 the wick was 3/4 dry.  The unit on high was so loud that it can be heard on all 3 stories of my house.  In their defense, this was my first humidifier.  It's going back tomorrow.

These cables are awesome.  I didn't expect them to make a visible difference in the video signal, but they did.  The picture clarity and color vividness using these Monster M850 CV cables improved greatly over the HDMI connection that I had previously into the same monitor.  Too bad Monster discontinued them, so grab the Monster M850 if you can find them.  They make a strong case for component video.

Question: Bought it a few days ago just in time for ...

Bought it a few days ago just in time for the start of our winter. It makes a bit of noise, but not much, guess I'll see come late November. It is plenty warm and sizes do run large.

Update: Hunting is over, it is now used as my ski jacket. It keeps me warm on the hill after hours of skiing.

I've gone through quite a few bluetooths over the years - prior to having an iphone, I always used a Motorola.  It paired with the iphone fine, but had constant, tin sounding reverb.  Then i tried a jawbone.  It was ok, but if it wasn't positioned perfectly against my jaw sound faded and the person with whom I would be speaking would be unable to hear me.  A challenge if I was mobile as the earpiece shifted easily.
The Plantronics Savor has been great.  It really does tune out some background noise and I've never had issue with sound fading as I move.  I use the over the ear piece as I do find just the in-ear piece uncomfortable, but I don't mind that at all.
This is my 2nd Plantronics (I lost my first one) and I recommend it fully!

Question: Another fantastic Holmes mystery by Lovegrove!

Another fantastic Holmes mystery by James Lovegrove (inspired by Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine).  Lovegrove commands Holmes' and Watson's voices in a manner which Conan Doyle would certainly approve of, with sharp, clear prose, while also excelling at painting the pictures of the various locations, buildings, and other set pieces (with this mystery largely taking place in Oxford).  Without giving anything away, there are also some very interesting reflections/parallels to our own modern world and the ability to access and process large volumes of information.

If there's one thing Palahniuk does well it's taking the characters that become "supporting" in most stories and focuses them as the main characters in his book. This shows us the gritty details of their life that often times become overlooked.

In this book Palahniuk challenges himself by writing through the eyes of a middle school celebrity child. The plot is simple, girl goes to hell and tries to get out. Like most Palahniuk books, the commentary on our culture is the real reason you read it. Palahniuk reveals the darker parts of our culture and of us, and points out things that make you go "Wow, I never thought of it like that". It's definitely a book that will make you think with many quotes to pull from when you experience them throughout your life.

Question: Very pretty/Very Sturdy

Super pretty and the mirrored top was the perfect touch. 'Crystals' are not terribly fake looking. Overall, gorgeous cake and treat holder!

I bought this in November & have given it quite a work out ever since.  I have found it very easy to use, very easy to clean & it takes up very little counter space.

I heat my almond milk on the stove, add some Torani SF syrup, froth & add to my coffee.  Voila!  Not Starbucks, but pretty darned good & a fraction of the cost.

We have used it with both very warm & cold liquids with great frothing results.  Temperature doesn't seem to matter.

I generally just swish some hot water inside after using & tuck it into the dishwasher every so often.  It is very easy to keep clean.  A bottle brush (for baby bottles) works great for these narrower items if you really need to scrub.

Yes, the glass is a little thin, but honestly I cannot imagine breaking it while frothing & anything glass is going to break if you drop it (unless you're lucky!).  Just be as careful with it as you would anything made of glass.

If you are wanting something very simple and inexpensive then this is worth purchasing.  I definitely recommend it for those who want to froth at home and save money!

Question: I played for two days, then sold to gamestop

Hated it, irritating trying to figure out what to do, and seems as if you have to do what the game wants you to do, even though there would be endless possibilities with her power.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Just a quick note to say that it is a pity that people buy 'toys' before exploring what it is that they're buying.  I have seen people knock the SanDisk U3 drives, as well as U3 drive made by other companies.  Well the reality is that:

a- The U3 software has a way of stopping the software's auto-boot.

b- There is Uninstall software available at at SanDisk.com and at U3.com, and I'm guessing that those company's that offer U3 and have a web site probably have the 'Uninstaller' on their site.

c- There is a great deal of U3 software available (free and pay-for-it) at U3.com.  I know that SanDisk has a software site, so do Verbatim & Memorex.

d- For those who want portable software but don't want U3 or don't have a U3 drive, go to [...]  Note: some of the software here is the same used by the U3 folks, without using the U3 LaunchPad.

e- Quality of drives: remember that when you buy most of the electronics 'toys' available today, you are buying Chinese c*** (junk).  Both the manufacturing and Quality Control (QC) are garbage.  Unless you are paying serious change for something ($500+) you will get passable junk.  If you are expecting "made in Japan quality" your kidding yourself.  This is the reason you will see many Brand Name goods, also selling with No-Name labels (i.e Coby).  Same production line, different labels.  It is also one of the reason folks are impressed with Apple iPods.  Apple demands excellent QC, and the destruction of goods that don't meet the standard.  In exchange you are willing to pay a 20% premium for this level of QC.  Like everything in life, ya gets whats ya pay for.

g- Since the beginning of Windows (v1.0, et al) there have always been buggy and uncooperative software programs, there will always be pain in the a** software.  One of the reasons XP has such a prominent 'roll-back' feature.  And also the reason many, if not MOST, power users run multiple machines.  Of course, these days we have to fill Billy G's pockets by having to buy multiple paks of XP.  Most of my power-user friends run at least three or four machines, each one with a different use.  It shouldn't be this way, but the reality is that for folk that use or explore a great deal of software, for many purposes (MP3's, scanning, Video, controlling radios, composing music, et al), one machine won't cut it because XP ain't as stable as folks think.  The more programs, and the more varied in type, the more instability is introduced into ANY Windows installation. Why do you think businesses run Win2000 or Win2003, because there are less software 'toys' that run under 2K, and the 'admin' can prevent you from loading a lot of software 'toys'.

h- In the end, understand what you are buying before you buy so that you'll have better luck getting what you want, and you won't look so ignorant when you say something that anyone who has bothered to go to the web site(s) knows is dead wrong, or just plain stupid.

i- When you truly understand the product, you'll be able to write TRULY useful reviews, and that what all readers want, useful information.

To one and all, may your 'toys' keep you happy.

Question: Great while it lasted.

Worked perfectly for about 13 months, then just completely died one day.  Doornail dead.  Can't charge it, it won't charge phone.  Won't turn on at all.  They engineered it well - it died within days after the warranty expired.  Contacted them, and the answer was, "hate it, but the warranty can't be extended to cover."

This book was not what I was looking for.  I was hoping to see unrecognized scriptural based descriptions of heaven, Christ and the invisable realm, but it seem more fictional, with 2 to 3 scriptures references scattered between between one and two page chapters.  I think I would not have been so disappointed if I knew in advance that the book was primarily from the author's imagination.

Question: Easy to install, medium firmness with lots of tack

Soft Spikes Black Widow Edge Grip, White

These are made by Soft Spikes. The early Black Widow grips got poor reviews for becoming hard and slippery within 3-4 months. I am not sure if these will do the same, but initially they feel medium firm with some tack. Although they are smooth with a ribbed design, they grip fairly well on bare skin. I hate really firm grips because my hands fatigue after awhile. The softer grips help dampen some of the vibration, although I need to loosen my grip.

Installation was straight forward, just make sure you use grip solvent and grip tape. The spider emblem freaks me out a bit because it looks as if there is a spider on your club handle. In terms of thickness, they feel about the same as the usual grips.

Overall: 5/5 stars, the texture could have been grippier. Hopefully they don't harden after 3-4 months like the early Black Widow grips. I will update my review if anything changes.

I gave the 3-DVD Global Ride: Hawaii Rides series to my wife as a Christmas gift. After grinding through other spinning DVDs throughout our long winters in Michigan in the past, she was a bit skeptical. That is, until she slipped the first Global Ride DVD, Maui Rollers, into our DVD player. I couldn't get her off her trainer. In fact, her enthusiasm for her Hawaii Rides DVDs were infectious. So much so that I purchased a trainer and am now riding across Hawaii with her. Not only are we having great fun riding together, but we also collectively lost over 50 pounds of weight. We've never felt better! After Christmas this year, we'll be riding together across Spain or maybe Italy...thanks to Global Rides.

Question: My NEW Book Addiction!

I just finished this book today, and let me just say: What a great story! I loved the characters and their chemistry, their banter and their moments of doubts. There is nothing more attractive than an imperfect hero. The writing was captivating and the overall flow as smooth as a baby's butt. This is my first experience with this author but I can already tell you that I'm waiting OH not so patiently for the next story in this series. Jackson? Cash?? Oh Cash...Parker?
So, congratulations on a wonderful debut and may your next characters inspire you wholly (and quickly because..well...Cash).
Let the next book addiction begin!

This book has amazing illustrations and wonderful story of Owen who refused to give up his smelly and dirty security blanket despite all efforts of his parents.  It's heart warming, sweet and wonderfully written.  Loved reading it when our baby was small and now I purchase it as gift for anyone who has a new baby.  Strongly recommend Kevin Henekes books.

Question: A Fun and Illuminating Book on the Physics of James Bond's Gadgets and Stunts

Did the jetpack that James Bond used in Thunderball actually work? What about the tiny helicopter in You Only Live Twice or the car/submarine combination used in The Spy Who Loved Me or the safe cracking gadget in Goldeneye? There is seemingly an endless supply of gimmicks, gadgets, and secret agent tricks in the James Bond franchise that extends back to the first film in 1962.

Emeritus professor of physics Barry Parker has written a fun, illuminating book on the reality--and the fantasy--of the gadgets and stunts from James Bond films. He includes chapters on amazing devices, death rays, cars, car chases and other stunts, spaceflight, and nuclear weapons. Yes, the jet pack is real and how it operates is easily understandable; Parker explains it in an accessible manner. Lasers do exist, but their lethality is an overstatement in every Bond film in which they appear. The cars are real, and most of their enhancements are possible. Any the stunts are certainly possible, but don't try it home.

Barry Parker does a fine job explaining the physics of each of these gadgets and gizmos, as well as the stunts and epic struggles. "Death Rays, Jet Packs, Stunts & Supercars: The Fantastic Physics of Film's Most Celebrated Secret Agent" is an enjoyable reading experience.

One of the best things about this socket set is the box that it comes in.  Everything has a place.  We have so many sockets in the barn that are just running free.  Nothing is more irritating than looking for a certain size and you cant find it.

The set is  to 3/8 inches and 5-19 millimeters.  One good thing is a power socket adapter for your drill. There is a socket wrench, universal adapter, bit adapter, socket handle for use instead of the wrench and an extender.

The guy that works for us told me that the ratchet is a good one because the clicks are close together.  It also was just a little smaller than some of our other socket wrenches, but that is just fine with me because maybe it will be there when I get ready to use it instead of carried off to some job on the ranch or in someones ranch truck.

We had this set when I was in grade school (early-mid 80's). We listened to the tapes so often I'm surprised they didn't wear out!  My younger brother rested to them every afternoon when he gave up his nap.  Only a couple of the books have survived, but I can't wait for my little ones to enjoy the series!  Perfect for the car or bedroom, the book on tape format also encourages early reading skills.  One of the best ways for your child to learn your favorite Bible stories!!

I wish there was more space to write what the assignment is - it seems like it would be great for attendance but we don't need paper attendance anymore.  I still like it and use but would like that option of more space to write the assignment.

Question: The size was perfect for her room

This carpet was put in Mom's room. The size was perfect for her room. It is also has a nice design the makes the decor of her room. It is a very sturdy rug

Someone wrote, of this book: "However, my grievance (as an engineer) is that it is not for a techie who wants to create a scalable company (aka Brinn/Page or Zuckerburg), but instead is for a management grad who wants to manage a tech company."

I think this is spot on. I am a software engineer of about 7 years and I was looking for technical insight on scaling as well as tips for an engineer advancing through the phases of a start up Internet company.

The book belabored simple or even self-evident concepts to the point of almost unreadability. I thought, honestly, at some points they were padding it. For someone with my experience level, which I wouldn't self-rate even as "a lot of experience", the book was almost insight-less. Perhaps a management degree graduate looking to get into tech management would find this text useful in some way.

These are great if you have a need to bring a coax cable in through your window. I have a radio antenna on the roof and didn't want to drill a hole through the wall or floor. Using these I can bring the coax in through the window and close the window all the way. Great idea.

I live in a community where most of my neighbors work for DEA. And they don't share too many details about their work.

That's why Philippa LeVine's book is such a great read. She offers an unvarnished look at the agency, but also their work to stop the flow of meth.

This book is well-written and wickedly funny.

Namco strikes again, with another amusing, rather gimmicky title for the DS.

By "gimmicky," I'm not implying that it's a bad thing -- the gimmick in Point Blank DS is that it's a light gun game without, oh, you know, a light gun -- just that the idea itself, while interesting and quite fun, is not one to stand the test of longevity.

If you liked Warioware: Touched!, you might like this. There are 40 stages where you do the same thing over and over -- tap the screen frentically, trying to hit certain targets while avoiding others. The presentation is quintessentially Point Blank, with odd sprites and music and fonts bombarding you right from the start.

At first, the game might seem a bit too simplistic -- the gameplay options are less than fantastic -- but if you give it at least thirty minutes, you'll be hooked.

Granted, this game won't last you a long time, so after that initial hurdle, you're likely to play it for five to ten minutes every other time you play it. There's not much to do. Just tap, tap, tap.

So, despite it being slightly shallow and, yes, pointless (ha ha), it's fun for quickshot gaming sessions. Pick it up (preferably for like $20) if you think you might enjoy this, because chances are, you will.

Question: After a strike out, a home run!

If I read it and immediately begin it again, it's a winner.  Anathem was dismal.  This has what Anathem lacked: compelling characters, from the stars down to bit players.  The plot is also compelling so it is hard to put down.  Highly recommended.
I am, of course, as a long time Stephenson fan, a bit biased.
Thanks, Neal!

Grosse Pointe Blank is a quaint little movie about a professional assassin (John Cusack) and the woman (Minnie Driver) who loves him. Martin Blank (Cusack) is tired of his job as a hit man. He's finding that life as a semi-sociopathic killer-for-hire just ain't what it used to be. His terrified therapist (Alan Arkin) is no help at all. Mr. Blank's salvation arrives in the form of an invitation to his 10 year highschool reunion. At first he doesn't want to go, even though he's got a hit to perform in the same locale. After all, what would he have to say to all those former classmates? Plus, he'd have to face the girl he stood up on prom night (Driver)! GPB is not your typical love story. I was wide-eyed during the explosion, gun battles, and karate sequence, while at the same time admiring the cuteness of the Cusack / Driver coupling! I kept saying, "Aw, they really need each other!" throughout the death and destruction. I have never seen a movie that is able to balance the action, romance, and (jet black) comedic elements the way this one does. Check out Dan Aykroyd as the rival hit man, obsessed with either getting Blank to join his new hit man's union ("it's more like a club") or killing him. Joan Cusack is brilliant (as usual) as Blank's contact person / "secretary". Easily my favorite romantic / action / black comedy / John Cusack movie! Buy it right now...

Question: Christmas / Holiday Barbie

For the granddaughters / Christmas. I ordered 3 of the same for 3 girls age 6 to 8 years old and they are all the darker colored ones. We like to have diversity in our home as teaching our grandchildren all are equal. These Christmas barbies are gorgeous. Plain in the face but lightly colored lips and a beautiful smile. Her hair is smooth and glossy. Her dress is pretty and she has shoes . Great price too. I have already wrapped them up and hid them in my closet . Purchased 2017

I like this product so much, I bought it again. Lost the first one. Yes! It's a little larger than some of the others,
but it's crystal clear. I've actually asked everyone I've talk to - Is this a clear connection? - even long distance.
All replied Yes! They all said - didn't know you were using one.
I have a friend with one at twice the price. Distortion on her brand is so great, you wouldn't want to talk.
You would think - the large part that wraps around the ear would be uncomfortable, but no! ...that is not the case.
I've had another brand with a wire thin ear piece that was irritating. With this one, you might forget you have it on.
It's like a soft gel material.
So is it larger - Yes, But it's clear and comfortable - Yes! and Yes.
My first one only had an AC charger. My second one has a Car Charger and a USB charger (good).
So make so you ask what you are getting.

Question: Drama- good acting, a little depressing

Fairly good drama about a dysfunctional relationship- acting so good that the relationship was believable and depressing!

My twins just reached an age where they want to walk, a lot, and we live them in urban surroundings...the idea of taking them for a walk alone in the park or on our neighborhood is one I wouldn't even entertain, but this has made it possible. The kids ask for their backpacks often and they get to feel a little independence on their feet outdoors and I get assurance that one can't get far while I'm looking at the other.

Question: Great Cozy Mystery Series with a Side of Humor

What is not to love about a quirky mystery set in one of my favorite areas of the world---the islands of Lake Erie?  Dynamic mother daughter duo Maureen Kovach and Brigette Howard teamed up to write a really fun cozy mystery series that made me giggle all the way through.

I found the series from a fellow beloved author Jena C Henry and downloaded them immediately after I read her blog post detailing the fun series.  It was the perfect poolside read and as soon as I finished Sunny Side Up I went on to the next book in the series.

Francie and June are friends who seem to happen upon mysteries and mayhem every where they turn.  Quirky and lovable these two characters along with their supporting characters had me at the first adventure and I found myself shaking my head at times wondering what mischief they were going to find next.

While the series is lighthearted and fun it is very well written and I loved getting to know this new author (or should I say authors) and am looking forward to following them as they publish more books.  Perfect summer read for anyone who needs a little lighthearted and fun read.

I really love this idea its perfect in our tiny kitchen. I would have liked something in addition to give it a slant that I could adjust but it is great and easy to clean.

Question: 'I Forgive You' (again)

There were noises coming out of 'You Are The Quarry' which suggested Morrissey might be on the cusp of some kind of renaissance. There were enough signs to nourish cautious optimism that something strong was about to emerge from Camp-Mozzer, and us long-standing (long-suffering!?) fans might at last have something impressive and substantial to cheer.
Unfortunately, no.

Rock music has the disarming knack of smacking you across the brow when you least need or expect it, and any hopes of a splendid Moz rebirth are dashed on the rocks by 'Ringleader of the Tormentors'.
A big brassy album full of gusty air and not much else.

I can't see why he allows this stuff to exist. Perhaps he's one of these 'genius' types that never listens to his own work. If he has any kind of conscience or ear, he must realise this stuff is acutely substandard.

Tony Visconti's production is fine. A big sound like this suit's a robust, mature artist like Morrissey, where-as it can (and did!) DESTROY a young group like Altered Images many moons ago. Morrissey is in his element with kids choirs, (more like 'kinder spiel') church organs and kettle drums, and incredibly, Ennio Morricone is involved at one stage. (now there's guy with a hook or two)
Thankfully, there's a marked decline in that annoying rip-roaring guitar, but Moz just hasn't got the base material to take advantage; he needs to spend a lot more time at his Devonport before he even thinks about approaching a microphone.

Previous albums have screamed his collaborators (session muso's to a man) intent to achieve, or at least vie for Marr-style accomplishment, (impossible - that's like Stan Laurel teaming up with someone else) but they've all gone down the 'standard old rock' road, (under Moz's instruction I assume) to failure and disappointment. So it's no coincidence that the only song on 'ROTT' worth a second listen, 'Life is a Pigsty', is the one furthest removed from Mozzer's dicey, trad-rock saturated diatonic.

I feel a rotter coming on here all the time clobbering Moz. I was gonna temper this review by saying 'he's trying his best' but that's patently untrue. It's because I care about him still, that I stand harsh and uncompromising.
He can do better. I know it, you know it, and Steven Patrick Morrissey MUST know it.
It's down to him.

Oil change place broke the old one and didn't tell me. Ordered these replacements, popped right in and they look great! Thanks!

Question: Great value and very durable

This line is very durable, works very well with Ego trimmer, and is a great value.

I used this on my Dodge Challenger because in the winter time the window would freeze to the top door frame - which means you cannot open the door itself because the door design is such where its just glass on top.

So yeah, couldn't open the door because the glass would have broken if i pulled on the door. So before it snowed or rained in the winter, I sprayed the windows with this stuff and never had the problem again! I would do this fairly often to ensure the product didn't wear off. Washing the car would also make the product wear off so I'd have to quickly spray again. No issues

Question: Interesting images of studio/creative spaces

Nice hardbound books with a lot of images, though some of the photography is compromised by being out of focus or oddly composed. I did find the spaces documented to be compelling and even inspiring. How much set preparation was done though isn't obvious to me. Some of the spaces looked lived-in and worked-in while others seemed as though they had been cleaned up for the photo session. Hard to tell. The text was a mixed bag, some of it was interesting, but some of it seemed to be boilerplate. "Yeah, I could figure that from the pictures." Overall you're here for the images and the glimpses into these artist spaces.

product was exactly what I wanted to purchase for my daughter as a gift for completing her masters degree. Ideal for carrying her tablet or mac for work and all of her hand written notes for reference.

Question: A great novel of forgiveness and romance

What a good novel. I really enjoyed it. The characters are great. That Celia  she has a quick tongue inspired by a hurt that goes deep. She loves Addie so much and doesn't want her hurt by the man who caused so much hurt for herself. But Celia listens to God speak about forgiveness to her heart, well, sort of. Addie is just a dear. Her four and five year old character is so well done. She is precious. When Ty tried to create a princess story to tell her at bedtime, well, I laughed until the tears rolled. Ty sometimes irritated me. He is used to getting his way  even if he has to buy it. At other times I felt sorry for him as he was trying so hard to win Celia back.

The theme of forgiveness in this novel is huge. Celia's hurt is very deep and she struggles with it for a long time. It is so encouraging to see God working through both of these people toward forgiveness and restoration. Alongside is the idea of doing some kind of penance for a wrong done. Ty had been beating himself up for what he did to Celia. Forgiveness from God is sometimes hard to take.

The only detraction from perfection is that I felt the novel was too long. The typical barrier to romance just seemed to go on too long, the tension between the two erupting too many times. Other than that, a very enjoyable novel.

I received a complimentary egalley of this book through Litfuse for the purpose of an independent and honest review.

Great watch.  The leather is tight at first, as most reviewers indicate.  The low-lighting glow does not work either.  However, this is a beautiful watch and I receive loads of compliments on it!  One would do well to buy it!

A bit longer than I expected for petite and they tend to stretch between washes. Just wear with a belt

Overall a decent product but I hate the volume control- I like to listen to the radio or music very softly at night but this has numbered volume levels with 1 being loud enough to hear across the room. Backllight makes the screen hard to read and the preprogrammed nature sounds are tinny-not so relaxing. You get what you pay for but I wouldn't buy again.

Question: Synthesizer and sequential oriented music, with Chic Corea and George Benson

This CD was released in 1984 and is 38 minutes long.  The sound quality if very good and sharp and clear.  But, now there is a remastered version available.  I haven't heard it, but wonder how much better the sound quality could be.  But, I do know that in the early eighties, when music was still being released on LP's and CD's at the same time, many CD's had very poor sound quality (giving rise to vinyl snobs and the "remastered" CD's of today).

This is mostly a solo, or duet album.  Ponty plays most of the intturments.  There are two tracks with Chic Corea doing keyboard solos and one track with a George Benson guitar solo.  Both of these guest artiests make great contributions to the album.  There is also a guest drummer on one track.

On this album, Ponty focuses on playng synthesizers and doing repeated rhythms on a sequencer.  He does play some very nice violin parts throughout the album.

I agree with a previous reviewer about the poor state of jazz fusion in the early eighties.  I can also see is point and understand why he might not like this CD.  But, I didn't think this CD was bad as most of the jazz that was being put out at the time.  I find this CD to be more energetic and more interesting.  Even though there is ample use of sequencers, I think this CD is less repetitive than most jazz CD's of the early eighties.

I also think this CD is much better than some of the albums that Ponty would put out later.  He would get even more mechanical and more precise so there so no longer any life to the music.  You might say this CD is the start of the decline, but it still hadn't got to the point where it was boring.

When I saw this new series, Beach Brides, I knew that I was going to have to read it. My favorite place in the world is the beach! The sound, the smell, the sun and the breeze makes my heart sing!  A Beach and a Bride??? Yes, please, says this ex-wedding planner! I have read quite a few of Grace Greens books and have loved them. This one does not disappoint.
Clair Bennet is no stranger to the beach! We find her and 11 members of her online book club meeting in the Caribbean. She is a good sport when the group wants to send messages in bottles out to sea on their last night together. This group of girls is down on its luck in love and hopes that this will turn it around. Clair is engaged and working with the love of her life  why would she want to do this? So as not to offend her book club besties, she joins in the fun and writes her real name and a fake email address (as one can never be too careful) on a piece of paper, seals the bottle and flings it into the sea.
We meet her sisters, her fianc, the house, and the beach as the story continues. But, what about the message in the bottle?? You will have to find out for yourself. Once I picked it up, I didn't put it down until I turned the last page and neither will you! There is one thing left for me to ponder -Which Beach Bride do I read about next?

The Primitons were an 80's alternative rock band from Birmingham, AL.  This CD reissue is long overdue. Songwriter/guitarist/vocalist Mats Roden, along with lyricist Stephanie Truelove and a KILLER rhythm section produced 2 LP's of worth of tight, fun, intelligent power pop songs.  This collection contains their best work. If you love bands from that era such as REM, you will enjoy this collection.

Question: Excellent lion hunting tales

This book starts out excellent as the author writes about lions and relates some of his adventures hunting them; but it gets much less interesting as he goes on to other varieties of African game.  Like so many others before and since, he feels compelled to cover almost all the other species as well, even when he has little of interest to tell.  The chapter on hyenas was surprisingly good, the two on elephants surprisingly boring, and the obligatory wart hog chapter was a trial, as always.  Despite my criticism, I enjoyed the book and it was funny at times.  I gave it four stars mostly on the strength of the lion stories which make up 118 of the 409 total pages.

As others have said, it is a foam brick!  It was perfect for a humorous gift for an 'inside' workplace joke.

Question: I recommend to all those who have loved LB and continue ...

Louise Bourgeois was one of my first creative loves. Her psychological take, her visceral story telling, made me think of the feminine and entrapment without transcendence or clarity; it clears your head but she was holding on to the dear end to her sorrows.  Even so, her work made me feel understood, almost oceanic. I had no idea she was in therapy; it was implied but never verified. This is an eye-opener and a telling tale of her thoughts and obsessions. I feel the sound of her voice is clear in this collection. There are also images. Tell tale signs. I felt the enclosure for the two volumes was a bit flimsy but the overall impression is solid. I recommend to all those who have loved LB and continue to do so but also those who need an introduction. Man or woman. Cat or dog. Though she never needed my approval. Whose approval was she looking for? Her own? You'll see...

I bought the extra large for my 30 lb mini poodle as the medium was way too small but the correct size should have been a large instead.  So even though they do run small, be sure you get the correct size.  It's a great raincoat for my dog as long as I make sure that the Velcro is on tight otherwise it breaks open.

Question: I am disappointed that this coffee maker did not last long

I am disappointed that this coffee maker did not last long. Initially the coffee was hot after brewing but after a year I would have to heat it up in the microwave. Eventually the brewing process became louder and louder and then one morning I flipped the switch and nothing happened, only the warming tray heated up. I purchased the coffee maker in April 2013 and it lasted until just a month after the 2 year warranty expired. This model is now selling for $159.99 locally, $30. more than I initially paid for it. It certainly is not worth it and would never consider buying it again. Fortunately I kept my old Cuisinart Brew Central coffee maker I purchased in 2003 for $89. with a 3 year warranty and it still makes a great cup of coffee. I now wonder why I ever bought the Bonavita.

The back story is so sad that it is very easy to overlook the grim intent of Howie'snew-found "friend".  That so much could go wrong in the life of a young boy is something we prefer not to know.

Question: Disappointed in iPhone 5 Version

I used the Zagg screen protector on my iPod Touch a couple years ago, and was very pleased with it.  I fit perfectly around the home button and went all they way to the edge of the screen, so that there was no glass exposed when my case was installed.  This version for the iPhone 5 does not have that same quality/precision.  While it fits nicely around the home button, there is more clearance, and Zagg appears to have cut a corner around the phone speaker and camera, by just creating a large opening.  And, the protector does not even come close to the edges.  So, with a case that comes up around the top of the screen, there are a couple mm's of glass exposed.  I still like the protector itself - very durable, and I like the "orange peel" feel and slight "grip" your fingers get when using the keyboard.  And the smudge reduction is excellent.  So, still a good screen protector, but the quality has slipped from earlier versions for other Apple products.

Light weight, long battery life, amazing speed(boots up in couple of seconds)  nice display. Comparable to  Mac Book pro.

Question: not bad But need to be changed shock together

Lifted mor than 2inch . .not bad
But need to be changed shock together.

I have read nearly all of Grafton's alphabetical novels which usually feature the solo, bare bones budgeted female Private Investigator, Kinsey Milhone.  By this late in the alphabet, Milhone feels like an old friend who is dogged in her determination, uniquely clever and inventive, and has a somewhat sardonic sense of humor.  I enjoy Grafton's mysteries as purely pleasurable reading; nothing better than kicking back on a rainy day or when I don't feel well and indulging in one of Grafton's stories.  Albeit, I do alot of far more intellectual reading, but every now and then catching up with "my old friend" Kinsey Milhone is a real treat.  Can't imagine why anyone wouldn't enjoy "S is for Silence."  Indulge and enjoy. . .
