It Won't Be Soon Before Long
It Won't Be Soon Before Long
Global neo-soul rock superstars Maroon 5 are back with their much-anticipated sophomore album, It Won't Be Soon Before Long. The follow-up to the 10x platinum, Grammy-winning Songs About Jane will be "sexier and stronger," according to frontman Adam Levine, who looked to '80s icons such as Prince, Michael Jackson, and Talking Heads for inspiration. Recorded at home in Los Angeles with producers Mike Elizondo (Fiona Apple, Eminem), Mark "Spike" Stent (Bjork, Keane, Gwen Stefani), Mark Endert (Madonna, Fiona Apple), and Eric Valentine (Queens of the Stone Age, Nickel Creek), the album promises to be a louder take on the pop sounds of their first effort. "It's definitely aggressive, upbeat and pounding," says Levine.

Customer Review: Love it
I love this album. This is the first time I have brought a Maroon 5 album, but I liked the second song that they were playing on the tv. I love this CD, its only 1 or 2 songs that I don't really care for, but they aren't that bad! I would recommend this to someone who likes feel good music!
Customer Review: Coaster, Straight-Edge, Pillow, Frisbee...
...these are just some of the ways you can put your Maroon 5 CD to better use. Seriously, did anyone actually listen to this album? It's all the crappy music of the 70s and 80s revisited. It's disco rehashed and reconfigured with a corny, electronically watered-down sound to accompany it. This music is AWFUL! This album would be better suited as a breakfest table. It lacks the soul and the drive and the modicum of originality of their first release. This is merely an offering of boring lyrics, hackneyed sing-songiness, and all the same chords and melodies of by-gone eras...and not even GOOD ERAS! Why the hell would a band with so much talent and potential choose to follow up a soulful debut with disco/sounds of 80's pop trash? What is wrong with this world?
The Magic School Bus - In the Rainforest
The Magic School Bus - In the Rainforest
The irresistible pull of chocolate is the catch for this lesson from the dandy kids series The Magic School Bus. The kids give a cocoa tree to their intrepid teacher Ms. Frizzle (voiced by Lily Tomlin) for an Earth Day present. When the tree yields only one bean, it's off to the rain forest to discover why. The life of a cocoa plant, including how pods, mud puddles, and bugs play a part in its development should have the little ones curious (and a bit shocked) about how the basic ingredient in chocolate comes to be. All this plus side trips to visit iguanas and other animals of the rain forest. (Ages 6 to 12) --Doug Thomas
Customer Review: Making Science Fun
This video is well done and very entertaining. Mrs. Frizzel is the science teacher we all wish we had had!! The entire Magic School Bus series makes science very exciting and fun and practical. I think I enjoy these videos as much as my daughter does!
Customer Review: The Magic School Bus- In The Rainforest
All the Magic School Bus adventures are wonderful. My grandchildren, ages 2-5, adore them and the grownups love Lilly Tomlin's voice! The stories are colorful,full of learning and adventure, and are not scary for little ones.
The Golden Compass (New Line Platinum Series Two-Disc Widescreen Edition)
The Golden Compass (New Line Platinum Series Two-Disc Widescreen Edition)
In a parallel universe where witches rule the skies and armoured bears are the bravest warriors, young Lyra Belacqua journeys from her home among the scholars at Oxford to the far North to save her best friend. Based on the first book in the Carnegie Medal-winning series, His Dark Materials.
Customer Review: Please ...
Tim W was very elegant in his review - in a nutshell - boring - save your money!
Customer Review: Tried to make everyone happy and failed
The filmmakers tried to make 1) an original and fresh Harry Potter size franchise for the studio, 2) a film that wouldn't offend religious viewers, 3) a film that would still promote the author's atheist/anti-church agenda.
1) Fail
2) Fail
3) Fail
The result was a watered down story that appealed to no one. It felt as though the story was on fast forward for those who'd read the (much better) novel. And, perhaps to me the strangest decision of all -- probably in an effort to succeed at number two (see above) -- they didn't include the amazingly powerful closing scene of the book.
Highlight of the film for me? Sam Elliott as Lee Scoresby. Perfect casting.
Stardust was the better film. Wish it had had Golden Compass' marketing budget.
Pass on this one.

Customer Review: Passed exam with 910
The book was not extremely useful for this exam, basically its just a recap of the materials learnt in all other exams. The book did however provide a great refresh of this information and the practice questions on the simulator included prepare you for the exam well.
Customer Review: Good summary but missing specific details
Overall this book was a great review and summary of some of the information covered on the 70-297 vendor exam. However, it was missing some specific details about material that was covered on the vendor exam. The case studies did a great job of preparing you for the type of format you will see on the exam but the content was not nearly as in-depth or challenging as on the vendor exam. IF you are looking for the quintessential book to prepare for the vendor exam, this is not it. However, as a review of major concepts it is right on.

Customer Review: The best out there, but has flaws
If there ever was a Haynes guide for a vehicle I own, I got it! I have seen the others from factory shop manuals, Chilton's, etc and they just don't match up.
I have a 2002 Dakota Quad Cab. There are two years before me and one year after me. I feel that the revisions to later model years isn't handled very well. I don't think that it justifies an entire separate manual, but it would be better if alternate diagrams/instructions were there for the later years.
In all, it didn't keep me from getting the jobs done. I would still get this manual over all others for this truck.
Raising Sand
Raising Sand
The musical collaboration of the decade, Raising Sand is the sound of two iconic figures stepping out of their respective comfort zones and letting their instincts lead them across a brave new sonic landscape. Despite hailing from distinctly different backgrounds, Alison Krauss and Robert Plant share a maverick spirit and willingness to extend the boundaries of their respective genres. This spirit, expertly honed by producer T Bone Burnett, has resulted in an album pitched three steps beyond some cosmic collision of early urban blues, spacious West Texas country, and the untapped potential of the folk-rock revolution.
Supported by the unparalleled musicianship of Marc Ribot, Dennis Crouch, Mike Seeger, Jay Bellerose, Norman Blake, Greg Leisz, Patrick Warren, and Riley Baugus, Plant and Krauss -- as both solo and harmony vocalists -- tackle an intriguing selection of songs from such tunesmiths as Tom Waits, Gene Clark, Sam Phillips, Townes Van Zandt, The Everly Broth! ers, and Mel Tillis. Raising Sand finds Robert Plant and Alison Krauss exploring popular music's elemental roots while still sounding effortlessly, breath-takingly contemporary.
The song "Killing the Blues" is featured in the new JC Penney American Living Campaign.
Customer Review: Give it a chance...you'll fall in love...
I'm a huge Alison Kraus fan. My wife bought this for me as a gift. I was terribly excited. When I listened to it the first time, I was disappointed. The second time I found a track or two that I liked a little. After listening a third time, I was hooked. This is not what you expect from either Plant or Kraus, but once you listen to it a few times, it sort of comes into its own as something very special. It'll be ranked among some of my all-time favorites.
Customer Review: The snips of songs I heard before the release really got me excited....
To make a long story short, I gave the CD to a friend of mine. There are a couple of very good songs, but most of it sounds forced, like both of them are way out of their element.
