Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Not That Good) 『I listen to a lot of mainstream rap {50 cent, eminem, snoop dogg, etc}. My youth group leader urged me to listen to some Christian rap, so I bought the 1st cd I could find, which was this
Knowdaverbs has the voice and the talent to make good music, but he falls short. His rhymes are elementary and repititive. The beats are very good, but the lyrics aren't the best. He also relies too much on guests to sing on his music, he should do more rapping himself.
I would listen to Christian rap if there was any good stuff out there, but sadly most Christian rap is like this, and it isn't very attractive.
I appreciate his efforts to make good music, but it falls short
There are other good groups out there like KJ-52, Audio Adrenaline, and the Newsboys who are better than he is. Kanye West is good too {He swears, but he has a good message about Jesus and forgiveness}』
(just add to the corniness) 『wow. what a weak cd. does this guy really think he's gonna convert the secular world into christians by putting out ridiculously corny music? "if i was mayor" is very laughable, being called the "action figure" is so lame, and to top it all off the retarted "plane scared". look dude i understand you want to try to relate to non believers but this is not the way. tell them about your past life like maybe if u had a problem with lust, lying, cheating, drinking, smoking, etc. this will be a lot more affective in converting non believers than some old "yippidy yi yo kay yay i'm saved now let's do the action figure dance" type of approach. oh and i also heard the little bar that you spit about secular rap all sounding the same in topic and beats and all. verbs, seriously, put on hot 97 or power 105.1 and LISTEN to the beats, the flow, the samples and see what sells. then emulate it to a T but add christian lyrics onto it. or hey hire timbaland or the neptunes, rockwilder, or just blaze or dr dre to do a beat PLEASE! take this as some friendly advice from a fellow christian who is only trying to help.』
(Dont buy this!) 『I bought this cd expecting more. I was severly dissapointed. I will NEVER buy anything by Verbs again. This cd is way too slow for my tastes. If you want my advice look at grits, cross movement. I don't know I am just one person, but I did not enjoy paying 17 bucks for this cd and getting mediocre quality. Holy Culture by Cross Movement or Art of Translation by Grits or The Last Street Precha by T-Bone are miles ahead of this cd.』
(there's better Christian rap out there) 『I bought this CD and his earlier one syllabus, but am dissapointed with both. First, his lyrics are not hard-core Chrsitian. Compared to bands such as Cross Movement or T.R.U.T.H. his are only a mediocre Christian. Second, as for his beat and style, he could use some improvement. While #2 and #3 were ok, the rest weren't that great. He sound wasn't like the kind you could hear on the streets. Good Christian rap alternatives are Cross Movement, TRUTH, T-Bone, DCP, ANtonious, and Gospel GAnstaz』
(Knowdaverbs, THE BEST CHRISTIAN RAP CD OUT THERE!!!) 『I like the beats of eminem, but what I don't like about eminem is the cussing. Every song has at least 2-3 cuss words. I'm only aloud to listen to christian music, so I heared about this rapper called "knowdaverbs", so I searched it and i found it. So then I start listning to it, I was AMAZED!!! It had the beats like eminem but with out all the cussing, on top of that, it was christian!!! I was sooo excited about this that I just had to get this c.d. (I haven't gotten it yet but I promise I'll get it). So if you love hard rap or rock your going to love this cd. GET IT!!!』

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Jimmy Had A Lot Of Heart And Determination From The Start) 『Perhaps the most astounding portion of "The James Dean Story" is the audio and still footage of the hidden recording of the Dean family talent at auctioneering. I watch this dvd every year on Sept. 30, close to the hour of Dean's death. So much of the film captures Jimmy Dean as a very sensitive young man whose bold heart knew very few limits. Although he was very myopic, he was a basketball and track "star" (he averaged 15 points a game in a three game semi-final in an era when 15 points in a game was a lot, and set a pole vault record for that region which was only broken years later). I found it interesting that Marcus Winslow Sr. commented that Jimmy "must have broken 15 pairs of glasses" playing sports. Although he was short in stature he had the heart of a lion. I was also pleased with the summation, or the conclusion, where the narrator, Martin Gable reminds us of the positive images of youth Jimmy left us. So many other documentaries, including the ones with Bill Bast, or Peter Lawford, are so much hearsay, and are speculative at best.』
(Robert Altman's Masterpiece) 『THE JAMES DEAN STORY is a powerful movie. It is an intimate story of Dean told in the simplest of images and wonderful narration. A simple homage to an American icon who's effects of his brief time here still linger.』
(Lonely Bird) 『The depictions here are the only accurate substantial accounts of Jimmy Dean's life. There are no bios that can even scratch the surface about him. All of them (authors) put their ideologies above the truth of who Jimmy was. It's too bad that the only truth about this man can never be fully told even by"some"who"claim"they knew him. Christy White is the only one and maybe Bill Bast who appear to be faithfull to his past. The other closest is"maybe"the movie made by TNT in 2003.
Peace.. rj』
(Vintage Film) 『This film is a must-see for anyone wanting to know more about James Dean. It was released in 1957, over a year after Dean died, and we get to see and listen to family members who are no longer living. We hear from other citizens of Fairmount, Indiana, who knew"Jimmy."We also see and hear show business friends and acquaintances. It also includes alot of great still photographs.
Please remember this film was made in the late 50s, and its dated. It sort of depressed me watching it because it really brought home the fact that"Jimmy"has been dead almost 50 years. But I would think this film would be a necessary part of anyone's collection of James Dean films.』
(invaluable to anyone who wants to know more about James Dean) 『the information from this documentary is invaluable and the insight from his family and the people who saw him on a regular basis gives a glimpse of Jimmy that not many people saw. it is one more facet of a brilliant diamond that shone for too brief a time.one word of caution to anyone with asthma,high blood pressure,heart disese,or tramatic stress disorder,the reenactment of his fatal car crash combined with pictures from the actual crash site are a little too graphic for some.watch at your own risk.』 『Shortly after James Dean died in a car crash, Robert Altman and George W. George (son of Rube Goldberg) set out to document the young star's brief life. The results are mixed. The narration (written by Stewart Stern, who wroteRebel Without a Causeand befriended Dean) tries to get beyond the public image of Dean as the cool rebel to show the lonely young man underneath. It's a bit overwrought, but that's understandable, given the strong emotions Dean elicited from those who knew and loved him. But Martin Gabel is all wrong as narrator; his stentorian delivery turns the hot-blooded musings of youth into ponderous, pompous pronouncements totally lacking in humor. The most interesting element is the people of Fairmont, Indiana, where Dean grew up--straightforward, direct, and proud of Dean not for the fame he attracted but for who he was.
The Bells of Cockaigneis an early appearance from Dean's days in television in New York. He plays the father of a sick child who gambles his week's pay to try to earn enough to take his son "somewhere warm and dry." Gene Lockhart is the stubborn old Irishman who ultimately gives up his own dreams to help Dean. This half-hour program (complete with ads) was live TV; the kinescope is of questionable quality, but already Dean shows some of the talent and charisma of his later work.--Geof Miller』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (definately worth watching!) 『I loved this video!the mens and pairs freeskates are a must see. though it is edited to center mostly on the Russians and the Americans,this video does have clips of other skaters.I highly recommend this!』
(Beautiful Skating!) 『Just a spectacular show in vibrant colors, and great detail. A wonderful tape to own if you were there, missed taping on tv, or didn't get a good signal. This tabe is clear and perfect! There is also a companion volume "Figure Skating the Exhibition Salt Lake 2002" that is even better!』
(Great tape for figure skating fans.) 『I do not agree with some of the comments made by some of the reviewers of this tape. The controversy over the win by the Russian pair was warrented. Anton stepped out of his double axel,Elena leaned forward on the throw triple,the Russian death spiral was nowhere near the Canadians and the Russian lifts only covered half the ice surface while the Canadians covered the full length of the ice.The Canadians connected with the audience better as well as connecting to themselves. The program drew you in and ranged from new found love to the total depths of despair in losing a loved one, as in the movie Love Story.I think Sale and Peltier gave one of the all time great figure skating performances. They deserved 6's.But don't take my word for it. The commentators of this event,who are themselves figure skaters, said the Canadian performance was perfect and were shocked, as I was when the marks came up.Sale and Peltier finally received a gold medal, but there marks will remain the same for history. What a shame!!!!』
(Not worth the money) 『Please don't buy this product. I made the mistake of purchasing it, hoping to view Shen and Zhao's long program.
NBC's bias was enough to keep me from viewing the tape more than once. The American pairs team (Ina/Zimmerman), who placed FIFTH, were incorporated into the video. However, Shen and Zhao of China, who were awarded the BRONZE medals, were not included. Only brief comments were made about their programs and certain maneuvers which were a few seconds in length were shown.
It does not bother me that Ina and Zimmerman were shown. If they had included Shen and Zhao's long program and the American pair IN ADDITION to the medalists, that would have been fine with me. I was upset because the Americans were included INSTEAD of the Chinese team. As an Asian immigrant, I find this particularly offensive. Please don't waste your money.』
(I love it!) 『I watch this video once a week! I love so many of the programs: Jealousie (Sale and Pelletier-Short Program), Love Story (Sale and Pelletier-Long Program), Timothy Goebel-Long Program, The Man in the Iron Mask (Alexei Yagudin-Long Program), and Sarah Hughes-Long Program. The movies also gives good information on the pairs' controversey and the rivelry between Alexei Yagudin (men's gold medalist) and Yevgeny Plushenko (men's silver medalist).』

Many of the interviews are with historians who expect a firm understanding of history prior to watching. If you don't have this understanding, many parts may be over your head.
Also, if you are looking for a documentary on the Knights Templar that deals with occult lore, this is not the documentary for you; might I suggest the new Cracking the Da Vinci Code, available for rent at your local video store. Between the 2 of these videos, a person can appreciate the history and myth of the Templars.
』
(Good for novices. Average w/ nothing new for devotees.) 『This is a very well done documentary about the Knights Templar. If you are new to this subject and looking for a broad overview of the history of the Knights in a short period of time, this is an excellent video to watch. It contains all of the key information regarding the creation, growth and downfall of the order as well as some interesting theories about what it was that the templars found in the Temple of Solomon. If you are a devoted student of the Knights Templar, you will find nothing new on this video. I have been studying the Templars for about a year and have already learned everything that was on this video. It is interesting to watch because I love the subject, but there was nothing new; no new theories, no new findings, no new scholars, no new stories, legends or myths. So, if you are looking for a starting point for your exploration of the Knights Templar, this is the place to start. If you are looking to expand an already acquired knowledge of the Templars, you probably should look somewhere else.
A 3.5 but I'll bump it to 4 because of the repectful treatment of history.
THIS IS ESSENTIALLY THE SAME THING AS In Search of History - The Knights Templar (History Channel) (just a different cover box and title), SO DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME ON THAT IF YOU GET THIS.』
(The Knights of the Temple of Solomon.) 『I have no idea why the ratings for this DVD are so low. This is a first rate documentary which includes reenactments and the showcasing of original material from the period. It's weighty and two hours long in duration. I thought the testimony of the academics was enlightening...and yes, entertaining as well. We don't watch documentaries to be dazzled by special effects. Those of us who love the genre love it for what it offers our intellects. Is there anything about the Knights Templars not covered here (which would interest laymen)? No, and that's good enough for me.』
(Useful to the Uninformed) 『While not very visually engaging, it does make a good presentation of historic information regarding the history and activities of the Knights Templar. I wouldn't recommend it to any serious researcher, but it would be useful to those curious about the Knights but not interested in investing their time in a book. In addition, do not buy this film seeking to learn about Holy Grail myths. It mentions them, but spends the majority of its time on more concrete history and events.』
(More Instruction Than Entertainment) 『People interested in history should find this to be an excellent introduction to the Knights Templar. It stays away from the fanciful and recounts the history of the order. The photography is beautiful and adds to the information. The maps also add a great touch. This DVD will inform you. This is a documentary and does not attempt to be entertaining, yet I was entertained.』 『Studio: Bfs Ent&Multimedia Limi Release Date: 01/08/2002 Run time: 104 minutes』

Very moving nontheless. Not only is Karajan a great performer; John Paul is pretty impressive, too!』
(Superb Mozart performance) 『Musically this DVD is of superb quality. Von Karajan's conducting is - as usual - fantastic; the vocals are strong and without the shrill whine that passes for singing in too many performances these days (why do modern composers feel the need to use choirs composed mainly of squeaky voiced pre teens); the Orchestra is in great form; and the photography is very well done. Catholics will probably have no problem in following the Mass and relating it to the music, but people unfamiliar with the Catholic Eucharist will find themselves lost at time. The written notes on the performance are useless and I suggest that sacred music specialists will find reading Nel's article on Mozart's Coronation Mass much more useful.』
(Another superb DVD of Karajan legacy) 『This DVD is a must for any Mozart fan, and any Karajan fan. As usual the video and the music, are carefully edited. Strongly recomend it.』

I am actually not disappointed by this fact because I plan on using the book as a supplement to teaching the actual biblical story of Noah and the Ark.
The Jesse Tree is a Christmas tradition in our home and Noah's Ark is one of the first stories told during Advent. This book will make a lovely addition to our devotion. The pictures are beautiful ~ as is the case with most of Jan Brett's books.
In this unique version of the Biblical story of Noah's Ark, his granddaughter is the narrator and tells of this wonderful adventure and all of the creatures on board Grandpa Noah's ark. After 40 days and 40 nights the rain stops and the granddaughter sends out her dove who, as expected, returns with a green leaf revealing that the waters have been subdued. In the end, Grandpa Noah plants a seed and all begin to settle in their new land and life...with the final picture depicting the granddaughter with her dove, Grandpa Noah off to work farming the land and a beautiful rainbow in the background as a symbol of God's covenant.
』
(Missed the Boat!) 『While this book does have lovely pictures, that is about all this book has to offer. The title could have been "On Grandpa's Boat" and been no less meaningful. This book is no more than a grandchild sitting out a month-long spring rain storm with a bunch of animals (which would be fine if that is what you were looking for). However, if you're looking for a book to bring alive the Biblical account of Noah's ark...a story that recounts God redeeming a family in His great mercy and kindness...look elsewhere.』
(Yes, she left out God......and added a grandchild) 『Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Jan Brett and highly respect her work as a children's author&illustrator. But she missed the mark here. I believe that if you are going to retell a Biblical story, you should keep it in line with Scripture.
There is no mention in the Bible that Noah had a grandchild. We are told that Noah, his wife, their three sons, and their wives were the only souls saved from the flood. That's eight. Genesis 7:7 says, "Then Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him entered the ark because of the water of the flood." The New Testament also mentions this fact in 1Peter 3:20 -- "...when the patience of God kept waiting in the days of Noah, during the construction of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were brought safely through the water."
I'm all for making a story interesting for young people. When animals speak, etc. that's fine with me - I can appreciate imagination and artistic license. But I wouldn't own this book. The story of Noah is dramatic enough without adding people that didn't exist. When Ms. Brett did her version of "The Night Before Christmas" she didn't add Rudolph, nor was it a young girl who witnessed the visit from Santa. She was true to the original, and it was wonderful. I just wish she had done that here.』
(Get the Imagination Going with Pictures) 『Most children have heard the story of Noah's ark, but I think they're rarely encouraged to imagine what the inside of such an ark would be like. This book approaches the story from that angle and really gets a child's imagination going. What would it be like if I were on this ark? What would it look like to have so many different animals all together?
This is a great book for children who love animals. The pictures will have them entranced. I would probably not use this book to tell the story of Noah's ark to a child for the first time. I think the book is mainly geared towards children who already know the story.』
(Lovely book for church libraries) 『This is another lovely book by Jan Brett. The artwork is wonderful and the text is from the viewpoint of Noah's grandson. I bought this for our church library and am glad I did. I also suggest "Naamah: The Story of Noah's Wife" by Sandy Eisenberg Sasso for little girls. It stresses Naamah's job in preserving seeds and plants for use after the flood, and makes the Noah story less of a "men did the whole thing" story. Women were there too and obviously did a lot of work in saving the family and animals, too.』 『Jan Brett's intricate illustrations against a beautiful papyrus background make a stunning picture book of a favorite story-this time featuring Noah's granddaughter. As the floodwaters rise, she helps take the animals onto the ark and get them settled down. But it's not easy when giraffes are sleeping next to pandas and lions are curled up with turkeys. Finally the gentle rocking of the ark lulls them all to sleep until the waters recede and Grandpa Noah, his family, and all the animals leave the ark. This simple telling, combined with extraordinary illustrations of every animal imaginable, makesOn Noah's Arkperfect for young and old.』

The approach here is a part-by-part look at the different section of the body. Each area focused has illustrated muscles and bones with accompanying photo of a model by the side. We can clearly see where different layers of muscles are attached to the bones The photo reference is very useful and provides clarity than using illustrations alone.
The downside is the author isolates the parts too much. If the topic is on the arm, only the arm is shown with very little of the shoulder. Amazingly, there are no full body illustration showing the muscles. The only full body illustrations show the schematic form, e.g. muscle boundaries. So while every part is explained and illustrated well, it's still a bit difficult to get the whole picture.
Most of the examples are static. The body is not doing anything. Again, it's hard to see how the body really works when place in different positions like walking, sitting or twisting. Well, this is a reference book, for bodies in different positions, it's better to get a figure drawing book that focuses on poses and gesture drawing.
Also, a great bulk of the examples are for male bodies. It would have been perfect if more female bodies were included for comparison.
The accompanying text is comprehensive in explaining the structure and how the parts work.
Ultimately, this is a very useful reference guide for any artists who wish to look up any part of the body. It's recommended for beginner to advanced artists.
4.5 out of 5 stars.
(There are more pictures of the book on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.)』
(5 stars is not enough for this indespensible book) 『This is an unspeakably useful text for any artist studying Human anatomy. It was invaluable in several courses I have taken as a graduate student in the NY Academy of Art's Graduate School of Figurative Art, where the author taught for some time. It is visually clear, beautiful and esteemed for its accuracy in presenting anatomy in a multidimensional format with multiple views including cross sections for every element. The comprehensiveness is extraordinary and its contemporariness a wonderful compliment to more historic tomes, like Richet.』
(Human Anatomy for Artists) 『The book is very informative. I'm using it for a figure sculpture class and we have studied the bones and the muscles. Very pleased with the service of Amazon.』
(anatomy reference) 『This book is invaluable for reference. At 1st I was 'so so' about the illustrations but as I started to require detailed information for the sculpture I was doing showing the muscles - i discovered the exact information I needed was contained in this book and the more anatomy I do the more it is this book i use.』 『The power of the image of the nude--the expressivity of the flesh--has inspired artists from the beginning. An understanding of human form is essential for artists to be able to express themselves with the figure. Anatomy makes the figure. Human Anatomy for Artists: The Elements of Form is the definitive analytical work on the anatomy of the human figure.
No longer will working artists have to search high and low to find the information they need. In this, the most up-to-date and fully illustrated guide available, Eliot Goldfinger--sculptor, illustrator, scientific model-maker, and lecturer on anatomy--presents a single, all-inclusive reference to human form, capturing everything artists need in one convenient volume. Five years in the making, and featuring hundreds of photos and illustrations, this guide offers more views of each bone and muscle than any other book ever published: every structure that creates or influences surface form is individually illustrated in clear, carefully lit photographs and meticulous drawings. Informed by the detailed study of both live models and cadavers, it includes numerous unique presentations of surface structures--such as fat pads, veins, and genitalia--and of some muscles never before photographed. In addition, numerous cross sections, made with reference to CT scans, magnetic resonance imaging, and cut cadavers, trace the forms of all body regions and individual muscles. Information on each structure is placed on facing pages for ease of reference, and the attractive two-color format uses red ink to direct readers rapidly to important points and areas. Finally, an invaluable chapter on the artistic development of basic forms shows in a series of sculptures the evolution of the figure, head, and hands from basic axes and volumes to more complex organic shapes. This feature helps place the details of anatomy within the overall context of the figure.
Certain to become the standard reference in the field, Human Anatomy for Artists will be indispensable to artists and art students, as well as art historians. It will also be a useful aid for physical and dance therapists, athletes and their trainers, bodybuilders, and anyone concerned with the external form of the human body. With the renewed interest in figurative art today, this will be an especially welcome volume.』

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (disappointed) 『Still searching for a replacement for my discontinued Olga bras. Not this one. Still looking. Is it me, or are bras just somehow 'sturdier' than I remember? All the bras I have tried lately are built like Armco. Sure, I want support, but the garment has to have some give to it. Not comfortable at all.』

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (McFarlane quality is great) 『I got invited to a Kings game a short time ago and before hand I had to kill some time at the LA Convention Center where the NBA was having an event, the Jamb Session or some such thing. Anyway, not being all that excited about trying to slam dunk with a bunk of crazy ten year olds, I checked out the collectables.
I used to collect baseball cards and other assorted items, so it was with interest that I struck up a conversation with one of the higher ups in the McFarlane Toy company. He explained to me the difficult process of obtaining licenses from the MLBA and NBA, but because of the quality of their product they eventually won the right to make figures. I think the fact that another company, I think Hasbro, but I'm not sure, was dropping their line of figures helped out.
In any case, the McFarlane company uses real artists to sculpt the figures, much like what is done when the famous wax museum makes a character. They really try to be true to life, right down to getting tattos and such correct.
While I no longer collect myself, I can attest to the fact that the figures are very well made and authentic. If you're looking for a gift for the sports fan in your life, they'll most likely appreciate one of their favorite players in a McFarlane collectable.』
