waste of money
What a waste of $4.00 to rent this crap. The only reason I gave it 2 stars was because of the humorous ending. ALso, who and why compared this to Saw???? Except for the fact that a group of people must try to get out of a no win situation there is nothing remotely like Saw about this plodding, boring piece of junk movie. Save your rental money.
What?
I can't believe I wasted 88 minutes of my life to watch the garbage! Don't bother unless you enjoy watching mindless idiots running around trying to kill each other... Completely pointless!
A great atlas, except...
I agree with the Reference Editor's assessment: the topographical maps are informative, large and easy to read. And each map page includes a very convenient inset showing that page's relative position to other maps.My one complaint is that the index locates place names by their grid coordinates, rather than by latitude and longitude. I find this an unfortunate omission not only by this atlas, but by most others. Of the affordable world atlases I've seen, only Goode's and the Oxford Concise use this very handy way of indexing place names.
Saint-Saens: Sym #3 ("Organ")
Very clear, quite background, great soundstage, lower registers practically nonexistant. This piece should be a showcase for the organ sections but sadly, it isn't. I am Still looking fot the perfect recording/mastering of this incredible, symphonic masterpiece. Same/Same for Pictures at an Exhibition.
Very insightful
I have listened to the audio book and now read this and it has really helped me both in terms of my faith, as well as a historical, biblical, biological perspective. I realize what it is, and what it isn't. It is an opinion of the author with scholarly information and references to back him up written so that most of us could easily understand. It isn't for hard-core believers who might find heresy in the open questions the Bible text presents. The author doesn't force his view or opinion, merely asks the questions, provides some evidence (or lack thereof) and leaves the reader to decide what to think.If you a self-taught person, this book is excellent. If you need someone to help explain things, it helps. If you are one who needs someone to think for you, this isn't it.I simply love the context it puts things in as it really explains our humanity in this biblical equation.It comes down to faith - period.If you read his other books, you'll enjoy this one.
Don't Know Much About the Bible
Book seemed very well researched and the inserted bits of humor were delightful My wife is enjoying it also........V Parrett
