This video is really great. My two year old loves to exercise but the videos that I have are made for adults, so this was great for her. She loves all the different dances and the fun characters that are on this video. I just love to see her exercising and having fun at the same time. This video teaches her that taking care of herself can also be fun and feel good. My one year old even stomps around and does some of the dances, she is already enjoying the video and will probably just enjoy it more and more as she gets older and more able to understand it. And it is a great alternative to TV and sitting around watching cartoons! Buy it and get your kids of the couch!

As a somewhat successful network marketer I read this book looking for insights for myself and those in my “downline.” I immediately bought 20 more copies and sent them out to those seeking success in networking. It is easy to understand and is backed by the credibility of someone who can lead by experience.

I quite enjoyed this one. Normally I am not a big fan of constant point-of-view switches, but these are done smoothly and sensibly; not disjointing at all. The characters are great fun to follow along, and the story had me wanting to jump right back in to see what happened next.

This is not the product you think it is. The picture and schematic for this item are both WRONG. Hoover has changed the product but left the model number the same. The new revised unit is not the same old beloved vacuum to which all the reviews prior to 2010 are referring. This version is a cheap imitation of the former. This “revised” model features:

- NO Headlight
- NO Bag Indicator
- NO hose coupling dust cover
- CHEAPER plastic
- CHEAPER carpet brush
- CHEAPER hose
- SHODDIER construction
- INCORRECT user manual

It still has the same amount of suction but because of the cheaper brush it doesn’t really get down into the carpet like the old one. It just glides on top over the carpet. The cheaper hose is a real problem, because if you ever suffer the misfortune of kinking the hose once you will never get it un-kinked again. The lack of headlight is not a big deal, but the picture shows it has one and some people may need this feature. The missing bag indicator means you have to keep stopping and checking the bag to see if it’s full. The plastic parts are made from a cheaper flimsy plastic. This makes the unit lightweight but it also means not everything fits together properly, for instance several of the attachments are misshapen. The old unit used to have a dust cover so when you used the hose it would not spew dust into the room (because the brush keeps turning). The “revised” model has no dust cover so you better get ready for a face full of dirt if you pull the hose out over a dusty area. The general construction of the unit is sub-par compared to the old version. In fact, the user manual is still from the old version, meaning the assembly instructions are incorrect for the revised version. You will have to figure out for yourself where to route the power cord on the rear of the chassis.

The vacuum does still work, has strong suction, and works well on carpet if you put it on the lowest height and really dig into the carpet. But you can probably find somethi

This is exactly what I wanted and more. I originally bought the collectors edition of New Moon, after seeing it I had to have them all in collectors editions. I love these. they look like antique books, with the ribbon bookmark and the uneven pages. I already have a set of the saga in hard and soft back, but the collector’s edition is a true COLLECTOR’S EDITION. thank you
Street Railway HIGH QUALITY

I saw numerous plot holes in this book, even though the premise is interesting and maybe even had some potential. For the most part, I didn’t find the characters all that believable which made me not care too much about what happened to them. Bella is negative, mopey and weak. For some inexplicable reason, everybody seems to like her and wants to be her friend but she has zero personality. In real life, people would probably just ignore her and/or dislike her. Nobody would ask her to social functions and certainly wouldn’t be begging to take her to the prom. She pathetic because she continuously pines for Edward and doesn’t seem to have much of a life without him. I honestly think she’s taken feminism back 50 years.

I would expect Edward, being a 100 year old vampire, to be much more worldly and mature. Certainly, somebody with that much living would not be attracted to someone as vacant as Bella. I honestly don’t see the attraction here. Edward is also controlling and moody, not the most attractive traits you’d find in a man. Plus I find it creepy and stalker-like that he sits in her room while she sleeps, without her even knowing!! I also don’t understand that if you’re a vampire who can do whatever you want, why would you keep on going to high school? Wouldn’t you…oh, I don’t know…do ANYTHING else?

This story could have been told in a hundred pages rather than over 400. Too wordy, too many inane details that didn’t really add to the story…overused adjectives, etc. Character development was minimal, and I didn’t much identify with the characters.

The reason I give this a 2 star rating is because it did draw me in enough to keep reading. I liked it for the sole reason that I could shut my brain off before going to bed and it was nice to not have to read too carefully for fear of missing anything. I could scan 2 or 3 pages without missing any important information in the plot. If you want a simple read with some suspense, this is good for th
