Entertaining study of relationships

Movie is very reminiscent of a Woody Allen movie. Reveals relationships in a humorous and very human manner. It was enjoyable to see actors in a movie when they were so young (NYC before 9/11). Film style is partially in interview with jumpy camera handling for realism and it adds to the moc-documentary. Would recommend this movie for lighthearted entertainment.

Serious Enjoyable Time Sink - Beware if You Plan on Doing Anything Else for a While

Watch out - if you like strategic games like the Civilization series, you'll probably find this game series to be a serious time sink. I waded into this game and literally came up for air a couple of months later. Recommended for strategic gamers interested in European history.

First the good: Great color Needs improvement

First the good: Great color Needs improvement: I've only used for a week or so and already the ports do not continually support the USB's plugged into them. You have to fuss with the ports, unplug-re-plug-remove and change ports.

Dumb Copper Fit Pro manufacturing flaw

The nylon Copper Fit Pro Series compression sleeve (elbow, knee, etc.) seem to be well-made and perhaps, good products. However, the copper chevron stripes appear to be nothing more than some designers goofy branding idea (the copper is supposed to be infused into the product, but hope would you know without the visual of the copper-colored logo loop?). Heres the problem with this design: the goofy copper stripes are just very thin sticky tape that started peeling off after two short walks and one hand-washing in warm water. Just give us the less expensive, original black sleeve without the high-priced, failure-prone marketing logo.

Stuntman, the way it should be...

Having beaten the original Stuntman once, I was extremely happy to discover this game was also made for PS2. I always thought the initial difficulty level on the original Stuntman was too high, and it took a long time to beat, but that was totally corrected in this game. Also, the commercial shoots & stunt arena bonus courses are extremely fun! -Paul

Broke easy. Musik qualty was good

Just trashed them yesterday. Broke easy. Musik qualty was good.

A few issues, but this product is still a great value.

4 stars. This product is a great edger and a great weed-whacker, but it's just an ok lawn mower in my opinion. Other users have complained that the batteries don't last long enough, so I bought the corded mower. It's a bit annoying to move around the cord while mowing, but it's better than having a weak charge or having to replace the battery every couple of minutes. Some people also mentioned that it felt flimsy in the mower deck. I disagree. If you followed the instructions (which aren't difficult) and assembled the thing correctly, it fits quite securely into the mowing deck. If your grass is very long, it will take a couple of passes to get a nice clean cut, but if you mow every week or two, it's not going to be a problem. Plus, if you really run into any issues, you can quickly pop the weed-whacker out of the mowing deck and take down anything too tall for the mower to handle. One complaint I have is that regular mowers (even without a mulching blade) do a better job of getting the grass chewed up more. This whacker in the mowing deck is still just a weed whacker and leaves the cut grass in somewhat larger clumps than your standard mower. Someone who never raked up grass clippings with a regular mower, might feel inclined to do so after cutting with this. It's not a huge issue though. I agree with some other reviewers that the mower base deck is a bit hard to clean (if you're not just hosing it down). There are a lot of unnecessary hunks of plastic in there that get in the way of a scraper. Really the only way to clean it properly would be to hose it off. All that said, I have a small lawn, and I don't care about winning any best kept lawn prizes. This whacker in the mower deck will do the job for you. The thing to remember is that you're getting a great stand-alone Weed-Whacker with the ability to be used like a lawn mower. So it's well worth the money over buying a reel lawn mower (which you'd have to spend at least $130 to get something that would give you the same quality cut). I would recommend this to anyone with a small lawn.

A cute idea and a handy one

i received this for free in exchange for a review. Despite that kindness I give my candid thoughts below. * As cables go it's a good-fitting one. * Interesting feature to color-code the charging status In summary, a good, though simple improvement on a standard cable.

Keep calm and Royal Rock on......

As one who grew up in this age it is just great to hear them done in a different vein. One could be disappointed that there are no vocals but folks get a voice in there head and want to hear that voice which maybe be alive or years have changed it. As once said on an Album cover....Let the music speak for itself.....

Don't Waste Your Time

Don't waste your time. They provide little to no support, the fit is comparable to a regular sock. Actually, I have regular socks that provide better support. I gave them 1 star because at least they're cute. Ps this is Justin's wife, he doesn't think socks are cute.

CRAZY CUTE- It's really cute. I don't have a model body. Makes me feel like Mary Kate Olsen.

For the price it's worth it. The dress is short. But, you're already ordering a $20 dress that's covered in sequins, so let's assume you're cool with that. I think that black tights would look amazing with this, as my blindingly pale skin tends to draw the eye to its luminescent glare. I am 5'8", 140, 32 C, 27" waist, 36" hips. The large fits really nicely. It gently glides over my hips and grazes my other curves, without highlighting my doughy midsection. The sleeves are an awkward length, like a 7/8th's length. I pull it up the extra eighth of of the way as to not startle others with my oddly fractioned display of wrist. It's a lovely dress. It's $20. You know you want it. Go for it. You deserve it. You're not too old. Yes, it would look awesome at the party. ADD TO CART. NOW. Stop reading.

The stand is a necessity and works great for movie watching

This case has withstood the abuse a 5 year old can inflict on an ipad. Its been dropped, tossed and rolled and the ipad came out unscathed. The stand is a necessity and works great for movie watching.

It took me a bit in the beginning to figure out the story line but once I did found the book impossible to put down!

I would definitely recommend this to others and found it interesting to say the least! What a story line , once you figure out the 2 story's you'll be hooked!

Good Book just smelled bad

Smelled of smoke had to leave outside to air out for over a week to get the stink down but was sent quickly

The feeling of love Eva has for her "purrfurred family" is palpable

When reading Whiskered Wisdom I could feel fur upon my cheek, hear the purring, look into glowing eyes, and be amused by feline antics. The feeling of love Eva has for her "purrfurred family" is palpable. Memories came flooding back to me of my own cat experiences. You will really like this book.

Great Resource for New Hikers

If you are going to start taking up a hiking habit, you need to be prepared. Sure there are hundreds of resources online that you can read, but this book has all of the information that you need in one place! Its a great way to get yourself familiar with hiking, how you should prepare and what to do in an emergency. The author did a great job breaking everything down into very simple steps to help anyone get prepared for their first hike.

Multiple characters isn't alway a good thing

The only reason I finished The Begonia Bribe is that a book I requested from the library was slow in arriving so I kept slogging through. After *finally* making it to the end, the reason for the murder(s) was so questionable I literally went back and read the summation three times to make sure I was correctly interpreting. The first book gave us a core group of characters most of whom I really liked. This one not so much. As someone whose job requires her to get along and make networking connections with high society, it seems Cam's personality and questioning methods could possibly be a bit softer, subtler and certainly more professional. Penelope is written so nasty you have to believe her personality is something that will be addressed in a future book. Cam's father is wonderful but after appearing in the first few chapters, Cam uses his expertise to solve a major problem her lack of forethought caused then he's not spoken of again. Annie is available to help at a moments notice even though she's sole proprietor of a small business. Jake is obviously up to his ears with Cam's interference. Rob is being pushed toward the too patient end of the 'Boyfriend Spectrum' by Cam's behavior but he's still conveniently near when he must chase an evil doer and is generally available to accompany Cam on her questioning sojourns. The number of characters thrown at the reader is way too much. Pageant participants and volunteers. Judges and sponsors. Hotel staff and grounds keepers. Spouses and parents. And don't even get me started on why cross dressing was included. Red herrings are one thing but not at the expense of comprehension. I have no idea what qualifications Cam has as an event coordinator. Her lack of oversight on a large event is nothing less than negligent. A function encompassing two buildings and a public park has no security? Really? Roanoke isn't Mayberry. It's a metro area with a population of more than 300,000. No one thought it might be necessary to have security patrolling an open, outside venue? After that lapse in planning allows for a serious vandalism incident one of the corporate sponsors/donors agrees to replace the damaged goods in exchange for her company name appearing larger in the event's program. Anyone that's ever asked for corporate donations will see that as a huge stretch. And during this multi-day event Cam wanders off for hours at a time to solve the murder apparently leaving only volunteers to run the event. And again, Roanoke is LARGE area. Are we really to believe a woman who makes her living coordinating upscale events does not own a car? Is one of her criteria for accepting jobs they have to be within walking distance of her home? So much about this character doesn't make sense. I hope the third Garden Society Mystery improves. This series started strong but, in my opinion, this was a disappointing effort.

Very disappointed in product

Very disappointed in product. Bought from Amazon as could not find Lindt bunny dark chocolate anywhere else. Very bitter like bitter chocolate used for cooking.

I've always wanted one of these!

I've always wanted a wireless headset. The battery on this lasts a full 8 hours no problem. The microphone works and people don't have a problem hearing me. I love the way you can tuck it away and it will automatically mute so you don't have to press a button on your communications app. Surround Sound is a plus as is the color selection!

Decent Adventure Manga in Need of More Originality

It is a bit surprising to me that "Barrage" (original title "Sensei no Baruji" meaning "Baruji of the Warring Planets") is now available in English, because Kouhei Horikoshi's adventure comic series lasted only 16 episodes (published in two volumes). In some Japanese comic magazines, a newly launched comic series is sometimes cancelled unceremoniously for various reasons just like TV shows in America, and "Barrage" is one of such titles. This does not mean "Barrage" is a bad manga. The story begins promisingly with a teenage slum boy Astro living in a capital city "on a certain planet in a certain galaxy." One day Astro, being mistaken for the prince who has run away from the palace, is brought to the king of the war-torn planet. Astro's adventures begin when he decides to be the "prince" so that he can protect his "family" (orphans he has been taking care of) and the country from the enemies. The manga is certainly an entertaining read. Though the combat scenes lack the stylish flair of more famous artists like Tite Kubo, Horikoshi's artwork is above average, rather orthodox in drawing characters and background. What the comic does not have is originality - by originality I mean interesting supporting characters, unique gadgets or funny jokes. Each episode is told skillfully, but I think the comic needs something that gives the entire story a momentum and sense of continuity. The orphans (for whom the hero fights at first) disappear too soon. The idea of "warring planets" is almost forgotten in the later episodes. Kouhei Horikoshi's short-lived comic series "Barrage" is the artist's second work published as tankoubon book form, following his more commercially successful "Omagadoki Doubutsuen." The comic was originally serialized in 2012 in "Weekly Shonen Jump," most popular comic magazine in Japan (known for "Bleach," "Naruto," "One Piece" and many other famous titles). As I said above, "Barrage" is not a bad comic. It is a decent manga work with respectable artwork, but needs some originality to distinguish itself from others.

Hungry Ears Feast Your Audio Palate On This Spicy Eastern Electronica Buffett!

This is the deal of the year. The packaging is cheap flimsy this cardboard and next to non-existent liner notes but that's really the only minor negative considering the price and value of the music itself. That said this an amazing voyage into a synergy of electronics and world beat topography. BDG explores the far eastern mountain passages mixing ethnic chants, strings, electronic percussion and dub embellishments. Very well composed and still holds the test of time despite this gem was released over a decade ago BDG held that shinning light thru eastern musical passages for audiophiles to explore. The 3rd and 4th discs are very tasteful spicy house and dub laden remixes not one lacking in vitality and flavor. This is a limited edition so don't miss a chance to own some really superb music from Banco de Gaia!

Great collection of folk-style songs

Fabulous songbook! Brilliant illustrations. Easy arrangements. Original Spanish lyrics and poetic English lyrics. My dual-immersion students really loved La Granja, De Colores and others. Good starting point to encourage kids to create additional lyrics of their own.

A nice upgrade from onboard audio

As most people do these days, I'd been getting my audio off the motherboard for a while. That failed, and I bought this card as a replacement. The good: Sound quality is noticeably and genuinely better, especially for games using atmospheric effects (tunnels etc). The bad: 1) No AC97 or High Definition Audio headers on the card. My case's front-panel headphone and microphone jacks aren't useful. These are well-established and venerable standards that pretty much any motherboard supports without fuss - - can we do that here, guys? 2) Bad driver packaging. OK, guys? Maybe this marks me as old-fashioned, BUT...Windows 7 doesn't recognize the card and install drivers. Fine, I download and install the 44MB driver-and-random-other-crap package. Then I reboot, and Windows 7 goes and updates the drivers anyway. I ended up with something that worked, but why should I download and install a 44MB package to make it work, just to have it immediately updated? Why can't you just supply a working (and reasonably-sized) WHQL driver package so the installation is seamless and we can just all move along? You've been at it for 22 years. Your drivers don't have to suck anymore. The bottom line: It's a fine-sounding and reasonably-priced card which will give you a 1998-esque driver installation experience. Don't let that scare you off, just put on some *NSYNC and get to work.

Outstanding flashlight

This thing is the brightest flashlight I've ever seen, it uses a state of the art CREE XM-L LED, it even lists the bin number of the LED next to the CREE logo on mine so you know what you're getting.

Not a Fan of "Americas Game?" - You're in for a Surprise

I'm not a big fan of football, but Newton's Football catalyzed an interest in the dynamics of the game. Who knew that the gridiron was a workshop for observing physics and evolution in action? And over the holidays, I was able to toss a few zingers at my relatives, like "you know what the first football looked like?" A fun read and football will never be quite the same for me.

I got what i paid for :/

So the price for this pack of cable protectors was good but I think I shoulda just spent more on something better. Most of the protectors wouldn't connect properly. I had to use zip ties in the end to hold them in place. Thank God I had some other wise this woulda been a total waste of money.

Careful with the 9v batteries, otherwise it's perfect

Works as described, so I wasn't surprised by one enhancement that would have made this better. The picture shows a full container of perfectly stacked batteries. In reality it will almost never be full so you can't really have them perfectly stacked. In most cases it doesn't matter but with the 9v batteries, you can't have them just tipping over and possibly coming in contact with each other. A wishlist item would be that they provide a bookstop like feature that allowed you to keep them standing upwards. I don't blame that on the product, just my issue for not considering that ahead of time. In the end, I do not use it for 9v batteries, so I am happy camper. It allowed me to sort out my battery packs as I wanted.

Sad about this project

Somehow it did not work for us in the sense that the seeds have not sprouted. Its been a couple of weeks since we planted the seeds. The pods did swell up as they should but am not sure what I did to not allow the seeds to sprout. Sad about this project :(

Only one small problem...

LOVELOVELOVE this case with only one small complaint. If I would have understood a previous review I wouldn't be writing this. The only problem with this case is that it covers up the blue light at the very top left corner that indicates if you have a message. So, now I have to open my phone to find out. BUT it is not enough for me to send it back. I absolutely love the FEEL of it and the colors. I chose the purple with teal. Beautiful, just as pictured. It even arrived way ahead of time. Very happy with purchase.

Best hooks on the market

As always, Bates hooks do not disappoint. They are smooth and very well made, and have a rather unique feature in that the hook has a little indentation underneath that helps grab your yarn. They are all I use now.

Very disappointed in purchase

Very disappointed in purchase. Can't see the word BREAD and top does not sit snuggly. Only positive is box is a good size.

Absolutely AMAZING Book! Fourth Copy Bought For Family Gift!

This is the fourth copy I've bought of Mallets on the Mendocino Coast: Caspar Lumber Company, Railroads and Steamships, that I've purchased to give to family members as gifts. My great grandfather worked at the Caspar Mill in Caspar, California. My Grandmother grew up in Caspar and Ft. Bragg, so this area is very special to us. I found this book on accident, and it has been on the "wish list" for many members of my family. This copy was purchased for one of my brothers- and he LOVES it! I gave my father a copy (He's 85 years old, grew up in Northern Calif.)and he said this book is FULL of pictures that he's never seen before, and one of the BEST ever written for history and information on Caspar. The Photos are amazing- telling the history on their own. Great size fold out map inside book too... If you have the chance to purchase this book, or if you are looking for a special item, this is the book to get- for yourself or a gift! WONDERFUL!!! This book is a treasure!!!!

excellent patterns in a beautiful book!!

I am as addicted to books as I am to beading! Two of my favorite books are by Carol Wilcox Wells and though I have purchased many books since hers have been published, this is the first I would rank as highly as I rank hers. It is filled with inspiring, beautiful, and most importantly, ORIGINAL designs. It is a book that is a wonderful addition to an intermediate to advanced beader's library. The projects are fun to create and the directions are clear and easy to follow. I liked this book so much I bought 3 more to "gift" my beading friends with!!

Love this air mattress

Love this air mattress. No rolling off the side. I can comfortable sit on the side of the mattress. Easy inflate/deflate with built in air pump. Built in air pump means we don't forget the pump!!!! But like all air mattresses it is cold and causes that cold clammy sweaty hypothermic feel...so use thick mattress pads.

I had a housewarming party this past weekend and this game was probably the highlight of the party. I wanted a good icebreaker for my "eclectic" group of friends and this was the perfect game. Several people told me they loved this game and some even want a rematch! It would be nice to have a game that wasn't themed for a certain type of party and something that can be played for any occasion. Am definitely looking forward to more of these games that are produced in the future.

A Step Back In Time...

While talking to one of my oldest friends (we met when we were eight years old and are now in our 60s), she mentioned the Mother West Wind books. As soon as we hung up, I came to Amazon and found several, choosing the one I am reviewing. It's a gift for her, so I can't really review it, as I didn't read it BUT I know that it's going to bring a big smile to her face...and doesn't that just make it a five star product? Thanks, Amazon...I have found everything from all my old favorite rock and roll songs in MP3 (and sometimes 45RPM) format, to old books to any other thing you can name at your website...I'm so glad you're here!

You can feel the love of God in this story.

This is a personal, heartwarming story woven into the fabric of the war. It follows a teenager as he is tempered by circumstances that place him in the middle of fierce naval battles and yet his letters reveal nothing of the sort. His family loves him. His girlfriend is fickle. He is killed on his 19th birthday and yet life goes on in his small town, except it is never the same for his family. Do not judge a book by its cover. This not a history of the war, but rather a touching story of one young man's maturing and ultimately dying for his country.

Good quality floor mat

These mats are good quality but are a little small for our 2005 Dodge Ram. The long mat for the back seat was a little short for a big truck. We did keep them anyway, but just letting you know they may be a little small for a full size truck...otherwise for the money, they are a decent mat.

Great book to curl up with

Ted does a great job of both making financial advice understandable and actionable

As a Gen Xer I am always looking for advice from my peers. Ted does a great job of both making financial advice understandable and actionable. I was able to quickly find just what I was looking for and really dive deep on the topics of interest to me today. I know I will reference this book often - especially when I start investing more of my buisness profits and look at changing insurance options as I age. Thanks Ted!

Dangerous design flaw

I really wanted a teal collar for my dog -- you wouldn't believe how hard it is to find teal these days -- so I eagerly awaited the receipt of the Hamilton collar. If you look at the picture, you'll notice that the strap of the collar actually goes through the metal circle that the leash attaches to. In all other collars, this piece is fixed on the collar. I think it would be a dangerous design flaw because it makes it more difficult to get the collar off in a hurry. Also, the plastic clasp is difficult to release. It's hardly worth the cost of return postage or I would definitely return this collar. I do not recommend it for anyone.

Same great Around-Ear headphones...

I have been using my AE2's for several years now, I wanted an extra pair so I could have a set for home and for work. The sound quality of these seems to match the original, the fit/profile isn't quite as nice, but at least the do fit my years. I have a pretty big head, and my earlobes are larger than average, these fit around mine without issue, but ymmv. I'd tried a few dozen types of light, not noise cancelling headphones before I settled on the AE2 model... these are roughly the same in terms of fit/feel. They aren't heavy, don't squeeze on my head, and fit comfortably. As to the sound quality, I have heard better though none of the better sounding ones are near as light or fit nearly as well. There is a bit of a shift towards the lower/bass end of the spectrum, which really isn't unbearable given the editing of most audio to begin with. I haven't tried the Android integration or microphone, given the few controls there are, I'm not worried about it. These are mostly for listening.

For the rehabber in your life

Disclaimer: I received a complimentary review copy of this book. I'd like to think it didn't influence my review, but who knows. "Chocolate, Please" by Lisa Lampenelli is unlike many books by comics I've recently read. Instead of taking her best hour of stand up, adding another two hours of second rate jokes and typing them up, Lampenelli takes the reader on a voyage of her struggles with weight, food and men, and the rehab clinics she attended because of them. This isn't to say the book isn't funny, it is, but this book stands on its own without you needing to be a fan of the writer or her comedy beforehand. (I was only vaguely familiar with her myself.) Being a comedian I wanted to read more about Lampenelli's comedy career struggles and less about her weight struggles. But then again, that seems to be her point: You can be really successful in one part of your life and a complete failure in other parts, and the success doesn't fully matter until you've dealt with the failing parts. Along that train of thought, the line "As I believe is true in anything and especially comedy, all you need is one person who believes" struck me as especially poignant. When Lisa does mention comedy, she hits the nail on the head with such observations as, "Comedy is a strange profession. People who have been onstage two times in their lives have business cards that say "Comedian." Therefore, a comic's entire career is focused on separating himself from the delusional wackos." Other good observations include, "Comics who stand at the bar after their sets are either drunks or trying to get laid", "When you're an adult, it's easy to ruin someone's life. But when you can do it as a kid - that's a gift" and "Our entire economic system is based on people succeeding just to stick it up the ass of people who were mean to them in high school." While I enjoyed reading the book, I would've liked it more without the last section, which drops her story and goes into random jokes and musings. (Although if you're already a Lampenelli fan, you'll probably like that section.) Overall: This is an above average book in the comedy genre because it's honest and follows an actual storyline. Read this book if you're struggling with relationships and/or self image, or if you like a good "hero's journey" type of autobiography. This also makes for a great gift if someone is just getting out of, or on their way to, rehab.

Who came up with this idea?

Awesome idea to change out the wheels with these. I can move around on almost any surfaces without the need of a mat. I can't say if these will work out on the surfaces you may encounter. With these will increase the wear handling of the chair without the worrying the originals to break down prematurely. Oh, by the way, found that some have reported that theirs broke upon using them. They are built well and they will have to be inserted in all the way to work properly. I can see how these can bend if it is not inserted correctly.

Happy with my purchase

I love the storage but have to agree with many of the other comments - the standing water in the plant holder is a problem the company should solve. Other than that no complaints and no defects or issues.

Rescue Me- A Joyfully Recommended Title

Eden St. Claire is a woman with secrets. As an operative with Last Chance Rescue Enterprises or LCR, she is used to being undercover in order to complete her missions. When she comes face to face with Jordan Montgomery, the one man from her past that she has never been able to forget or stop loving, she knows that in order for him to forget her, she has to use her ice queen persona perfectly. Jordan, however, is not cooperating and when a rescue mission turns ugly, Eden and Jordan must depend on each other to get through it alive. Welcome to the world of Christy Reece! This brand new author comes out fighting with a fabulous first release! Intrigue, drama, bad guys. You name it, Rescue Me has it. Eden St. Claire is a strong heroine - she's had to learn to be. Brave as well as beautiful, Eden's vulnerability is deeply hidden but is still there and I think that is why I like her so much. Jordan Montgomery's regret for his actions so long ago is enough to bring tears to my eyes. His falling in love with Eden is bittersweet - their love for each other, while scorching hot, is what saves both of these realistic and fiercely loyal characters. I joyfully recommend Rescue Me by Christy Reece. From beginning to end I was spellbound and on the edge of my seat - Ms. Reece is definitely an author to watch! Talia Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

I would recommend this to anyone with a big dog

I have a Plotthiund mix, and with a normal dog crate she could tear the normal wire apart. This dog crate is absolutely secure and I know that when she is in there she isn't going anywhere. I would recommend this to anyone with a big dog.

Never a disappointment.

Baldacci has 23 books among his various series. I have read every one and wouldn't have done that if each was not enjoyable. Never a disappointment.

Murder at Monticello Review By Falynne Kagy

Jane Langton has once again provided us with another gripping Homer Kelly Mystery. This, the fifteenth in the Homer Kelly series, is by far the best one that I have read. It has all of the twists and turns that you'd expect from Langton. Fern Fisher, an overweight, personality-challenged woman in her mid-twenties serves as the main character. Her purpose in the nocel is to write a book for the Thomas Jefferson of Monticello Society, which will clear all of the hurtfull rumors of the late President's affair with Sally Hemings and his views about slavery. The supporting characters include Tom Dean, a man caught trespassing in the woods surrounding the home of our third President, and George Dryer, a demented serial killer who is out to get revenge on all women who remind him of his ex-girlfriend, Jeannie. The book is very well written, and leaves the reader hanging on to the edge of their seat, waiting to see who the next victim will be, or if Dryer can be caught in time by Homer and the Charlottesville, Virginia Police Chief. The book was ordinary in the sense that it was very predictable when it came to the murder case. I knew before I even read that Fern was going to be one of the last people that George would try to kill, and that, most likely, he would not succeed. I would reccomend this book to any reader who likes the classic murder mystery, and has the time to read the book in a short amount of time, as it becomes confusing the longer you wait between reading sessions.

A wonderful gift for any artist

I got this as a christmas gift for my sister. My sister loves to draw and has been a pretty good artist for years. She asked for some drawing and colored pencil books for christmas. I saw this book in the local book store and in my amazon search. So i purchased this on amazon. The directions and illustrations are wonderful and there are many different animals in different poses to learn how to draw. She drew a picture of a horse's head and showed me the picture. The detail is amazing. I think this book helped giver her pointers on how to really refine and detail her drawings. I also got her a book on how to color in animals with colored pencils (Realistic Pet Portraits in Colored Pencil by Anne Flood). That book has beautiful color drawings and i'm waiting to see what my sister will color in with that book. I recommend The Artist's guide to drawing animals for anyone who wants to make more detailed drawings.

The Name of the Rose meets Lord of the Rings

Murder at Avedon Hill is a wonderful blend of perplexing murder mystery and magical fantasy. When Arames Kragen, a retired advisor to one of the great royal families in the known world and his young nobleman apprentice arrive at Avedon Hill on the way to a conference, they discover that the only pass through the mountains is closed due to the horrific murder of Lord Avedon's Housemistress, Gretta Platt, supposedly by a vampire. Unable to continue on his journey, Arames must insert himself and his young companion into the small town and its secretive inhabitants to get to the bottom of the killing. Unfortunately, Lord Avedon seems less than willing or forthcoming. It will take all Arames' skill and insight to unknot the twisted mysteries that surround the killing and both he and his companion's strong weapon arms to survive to see the murderer brought down. Fill with magic, mystery, and fantastical creatures, Murder at Avedon Hill is an astonishingly good read that will have you guessing who is hiding what right up to the final plot twist. A brilliant first book in what promises to be a fabulous and detailed world by this debut author. A must buy for anyone that loves mystery and fantasy.

Give your Phone a bigger memory

Got this for my LG V20 phone. It is great to have this kind of capacity in a mobile phone

but it's ok still paintable and I like the way it's turning out so far

Giving it four instead of five stars because I can barely make out some of the numbers the ink is faded too much in a few spots, but it's ok still paintable and I like the way it's turning out so far. I've been looking at this one for awhile I love paint by numbers and this is one of my favorite paintings so all in all I'm pleased.

Nice size - very soft

It's been too warm to test this out yet, but it's a nice size pad and I know they will use it when it gets colder.

Very well made, have not checked on the loaded wieght as of yet.

Nice product, have not yet checked the loaded weight and access while loaded. Looks like a quality product we'll see where the best mounting position is for pulling various loads.

Keeps large loaves homemade bread fresh

This works very well. I make the large bread machine loaves of bread and I'm able to wrap and keep fresh. The honey odor does not transfer to the bread, and I like the smell. So far, very pleased

Nice history of a frivolous dream.

Ultimately, the requirements for a successful car have been so much different from the requirements for a successful airplane, and the dangers of incompetent piloting have been so much much greater than the dangers of incompetent driving, that the notion of combining both functions into a single vehicle for the unwashed masses has never had a chance in the real world. Advanced computer guidance and coordination systems might conceivably alter the equation somewhat in the future, but I do not think we all want to pay the price for aircraft-quality maintenance on our daily driver cars. Anyway, this book does a good job of telling the story of flying cars. As one would hope, it is loaded with plenty of photos. Some of the designs covered obviously emphasize the "car" side, while others emphasize the "flying" part. In fact several of them hardy seem roadworthy and do stretch the definition of a "flying car," but as a lightweight history book I think the author's efforts have been very successful.

I would highly recommend this book to ANYONE

I cannot express how helpful this book is. It is very well researched and backed up with reliable evidence, it is a breeze to read thanks to a talented and witty writer, and it offers in depth, accessible information for anyone who is interested in their fertility. I got it to help me use the Fertility Awareness Method as a natural method of contraception. I was worried about it at first, but this book has given me the extra details and confidence I needed! Please read it!

Great for video conferencing

I spend a lot of time Europe but keep this camera in my office in California to video conference with my people there (using RingCentral). We do a lot of video work and have fancy cameras and audio in other studios, but for video conferencing with half a dozen people around a conference room table the C930e does the trick. Sound and video are both great, it's plug and play to use, and it takes up no space. The wide angle on this particular model makes it preferable over similar ones (even from Logitech). Highly recommended for this purpose.

Not as good as stock antenna

I bought this antenna for a Baofeng UV-5R, I was disappointed to find out that this antenna does not pick up signals better than the stock antenna that comes with the UV-5R. Stay away from this antenna.

Nice product - application went well after reviewing YouTube video

This is my first screen skin that required a "wet" installation. One you go wet you'll never go back. :) The YouTube video was informational and I'd suggest that you do exactly as they note on the instruction sheet. I needed to apply a bit more of the spray to adjust the placement on the screen. After an overnight drying it looked great and the adhesion to the screen is perfect. I'd buy one again!

If you don't like reading about threesomes avoid this book.

Even after re-reading the blurb, I see nothing to warn that this book includes multiple partners and that lack of knowledge influenced my decision to buy. If you don't like to read about threesomes, do not buy this book.

Terrible experience with Seller 123

This was the worst experience I have had with an order. Unfortuantely, this item was not shipped by Amazon and the specifications were not clearly stated. It arrived in the manufacture's orginal carton, (rather than repacked like Amazon does,)so the box was all dented with lots of labels. When I openned it I found the unit too big. I tried to return it by the seller said it had to be unopened, in orginal box condition, a 20% restocking charge and I would have to pay the shipping return charge of $19.00. After a month of back and forth e-mails which resolved nothing and which I consider stone walling, uncooperative and no regard to customer service, I filed a claim with Amazon. The seller finally agreed to drop the restocking charge but not shipping. Now, 2 1/2 months latter, I finally got a credit back on my credit card but had to pay the shipping return. Do not order from the seller, they don't understand Customer Service. Amazon should seriously consider droping the company as a seller!

Love this splash-n-play!

It is perfect for my grandbabies, 2 and almost 1. They both have room to play without getting in each other's way. The umbrella is great for keeping them out of the sun part if the time too. Very sturdy. Won't tip easily. Love it!

AMAZING. LIFE-CHANGING.

AMAZING. LIFE-CHANGING. Don't bother with the hot water model. Cold water sounds horrible, but it's really not. The hot water model was a nightmare. I ended up with 3 useless holes in my bathroom, a leaky faucet, and a bidet that only works when the knob is twisted into my butt cheek on "cold". I find the cold to be surprisingly soothing instead of the uncomfortable jolt I was expecting. Get the metal bracket if you're worried about kids. It's not just an upgrade of materials. It has a shut off lever for just such an occasion. http://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00FPYIK6M

This is the best wireless WIFI router available at this time (IMHO)

This is the best wireless WIFI router available at this time (IMHO). I had a very good router installed in my home and a secondary powerful AP (Access Point) that covers several acres of land. I can get a WIFI connection in some directions almost 500 yards away from my home. I disabled that primary router (AT&T Uverse) and installed this one and then I took signal strength readings on the 2.4 GHz band at varying distances within my home and on different floors. The results show that on longer distances this routers WIFI signal strength is more than 10 times stronger than the one I removed. I have already recommended this router to my best friend who is having wireless issues. I'm sure he will have great things to say as well within the first few hours!!!

I really enjoyed reading "The Wrong Side of the Door

I really enjoyed reading "The Wrong Side of the Door : Why Ideas Matter," by Dr. Everett Piper. I was hoping I would enjoy it,and I did. The book was brought to my attention on the Fox News channel one morning when Dr. Piper was a guest. Dr. Piper, the president of Oklahoma Wesleyan University, spoke about an incident at the university, an incident in which a student at the university expressed displeasure because a chapel service message had made him (the student) feel "victimized." I don't recall now how I learned of Dr. Piper's book, but it interested me, so I ordered a copy. The book comprises 46 essays on a variety of topics, having mainly to do with education, politics, and pop culture. They reflect what I would characterize as a conservative Christian's descriptions of situations encountered in a culture light on morals and awash in self-gratification, among other things.

A low rent version of Rockport

Nice looking boot, but uncomfortable. Seems the old tried and true have gone away to less comfort and cheaper quality.

A must have for gluten free eaters!!

If you are gluten free this is a MUST HAVE book! It explains the scientific reasons why certain things work and don't work when cooking/baking GF. My husband made the Banana Bread recipe and it was delicious. It also give you their flour mix recipe which is easy to make.

best thing I have ever got only thing i would ...

best thing I have ever got only thing i would change is how it stays together when folded. It is easy to push lots of room my 2 girls love it. We take them with us lots of places and they do like people coming up to them with us being aware of them. so this keeps them safe.

The case is made of excellent quality material

This case fits perfectly it also holds a keyboard. The case is made of excellent quality material. I recommend this case.

Expensive accessories

I, personally, think they are overpriced but my nine-year-old grandson says they're awesome and it's all about the kids

Cute but ankle strap huge

Unusable as-is since the ankle strap is way too large. Had to take off the strap which then of course made the shoes pop off on a regular basis.

While the shoes look and function great, they are falling apart all around the ankle ...

While the shoes look and function great, they are falling apart all around the ankle collar of the shoe. I haven't even run in them! Unfortunately, I was on vacation and was too late to return them to amazon. What horrible quality!!!!!!!!!!

Great way to waste a night on the couch!

Perfect collection for the John Wayne fan! I gave this to my brother for his birthday, and I don't think I could have given him anything better.

Aragorn has a lisp, my precious.

I really really like this dramatization, however, the actor who plays Aragon has a lisp, and omg is this distracting. It so takes away from the work.

Stage 2 Afe cold air intake

The filter is amazing big difference in performance & sound. I ran my truck at the quarter mile stock & my time was 14.3 14.4 all night. I went back with the Afe filter and ended up running a 14.1 & 14.2 on that night. I recommend this Afe filter : )

Don't waste your money

Trash motor if this thing locks up once while your driving it due to chain malfunction etc. you'll be throwing it away because it bent the rod when it fired and could not rotate. These engines are made of VERY VERY poor metal. Not only that the 49cc pocket bike motors have much more power and are a lot faster.

A BIG card for your big-hearted Son.

Up until recently I always gave my son humorous cards that would make us laugh, but as he's gotten older I find myself wanting to express how proud I am and so much more of him and so I've switched to the more sappy, sentimental ones like this. The design and color scheme used are attractive, it's a larger than average card, it's eye catching and the sentiment expressed by what is written is one I can easily relate to.

Does not fit PLUS properly. Hinders easy access to certain switches.

I have been testing out many iPhone 6S Plus cases over the past few weeks. You can research my reviews to see which ones I liked and didn't. This falls squarely into the didn't like category. It's a handsome case, and yes, thanks to the rubber insert, it is shock absorbing. The problem is, it takes a lot of manipulation to get the phone in and out of this case, and I could never get my PLUS to fit properly into it. The case has a inner rubber shell. That is what you slide your iPhone into. That rubber shell then slides into the outer hard case. The problem is, I was struggling to get all that rubber to fit properly into the hard shell. Even when I thought I had it in there --- it was apparent that I didn't as I could not access the power button. All the cut-outs around the phone are perfect. The problem is, the case is too thick to easily flip the ringer switch on the upper left side of the phone. You have to dig your fingernail in the case to do it. I'm sorry, I really wanted to like this case. It seems there are many positive reviews for it. For me, I could never get the everything to fit together nicely. The case is also too thick to be able to easily access the ringer silence switch.

Rav Power is awesome love their products

We love it it works great very handy because it's got two outputs instead of one it will charge one or 2 devices as quickly as they can be charged

My nephew loved it! Great quality for the price

Bought this as a gift. My nephew loved it! Great quality for the price.

... electronic drum set cymbals and it really does a great job on them

Bought for use on my electronic drum set cymbals and it really does a great job on them!! Love it!

Fine art for your feet!

Purchased as a gift for my daughter as they depict one of her favorite paintings. She was delighted to receive them.

I am happy with these capri's and I would buy more

I am happy with these capri's and I would buy more. Just need to find out how to order more colors. Washed up very nice.

Buy this dress! It fits and looks great.

I bought this dress for an interview. It is so cute. The dress fits so well. Definitely buy this dress.

It was really easy to change from old to new

What can I say? It arrived quickly and intact. This was the first replacement cartridge I ever purchased for this machine. It was really easy to change from old to new. Now I can see numbers on the tape in black and red, which was my goal.
