I had a quick skim through the reviews of the album, let's just say I'm more than disappointed with the childish and ignorant one star reviews that have been written about this album.
From one person essentially claiming that this isn't music to others saying the band just put together a random bunch of crap and called it an album. I'm sorry but if you're not open minded enough to enjoy what's on the album can you at least be grown up enough to not have a cry about it and write over opinionated hate reviews. I barely found anything constructive in them, no one stated why they disliked some of the songs and those who did are hardly the type you would want to rely upon when making an informed buying choice, 'techno dribble' is the term these people brand it.
  To the open minded and non closed in person. Skip the one star reviews as they will sadly not be of any assistance with you unless you yourself are an ignorant purist.
This is a stunning album, a foray into the power of electronic and traditional music styles. This has as much meaning as Ok Computer and The Bends-make no mistake about that.

You have only to read the bad reviews to know why you should buy this book immediately!

Do not pay attention to those bad reviews. Most of them are SDA imbeciles who would never take the time to read a book like this one. They are just angry because they are being exposed all over the web. This book is a well researched work presenting plenty of evidence that will actually shake those who read it and make them run away from the SDA disastrous cult. An eye opener for those who have eyes to see and ears to hear. If you think you can fit into this category, then give it a try and read it before posting stupidity. Don't be afraid. Great Job Dr. Russell!!

Two Thumbs up!

I felt compelled to write a positive review to make up for all of the bad reviews from uneducated consumers.  I am a professional installer of surveillance equipment and purchase from an actual reseller and get all of the tech support I need.  This product was designed for installers not for "Johnny Homeowners" with no experience.  Of course you are going to have issues if you have no idea what you're doing.  The NVR is plug and play assumed you know what you are doing.  Plug in your cameras (I recommend Hikvision so you don't have any compatibility issues), connect a local monitor at least at first as it makes it much easier to view settings if you are not familiar with configuring IPs, and most of it is self explanatory from there given you have read the manual.  If you can't figure it out from there, you probably should not have bought a product without a warranty and tech support.  If you need the warranty and tech support go to an authorized dealer and buy one.  Firmware updates are often hairy as I have had several really screw a lot up.  Again, unless you know what you are doing, don't try it.  I only update firmware if I need to work with certain cameras.  Otherwise, leave it alone.

I hate writing negative reviews like this because it seems like so many people are just whiny and don't know what they're doing, but I just had to do this one.

Did not work out of the box.  The drive opened and closed and spun the disc, but it was not detected by BIOS, Windows, or Linux.  Rebooted multiple times.  Plugged/unplugged multiple times.  Non-functional.

Returned item.

I have never written a review before because even though I've read bad books I never felt inclined enough to write a negative review. That being said you can imagine how bad this had to be for me to write a review. Please don't waste your money, the author tried to pull a M Night Shyamalan with the plot twist and failed just as miserably

works perfectly.  However, dangerous and not recommended in the hands of those not knowing what the heck they're doing....me!

Do not read these good reviews, they must have paid these people.  It simply does not work.  Not right out of the box at least.  In order for it to work you have to angle it upwards by fashioning a rigid stilt/prop at the bottom.  Otherwise it makes the screen even glare-y-er... if that is a word.  Again, the positive reviews must be paid reviewers.

I waited until I read some bad reviews on this book! I was like ok its not for everyone lets give it a try! Weird I know but not everyone can like the same book. I started reading this book and was sucked in! I messaged the author a few times while reading because I was getting frustrated, twisted, a ball of nerves. I wanted to stop at one point because the fear of going further worried me because at this point I wanted the good ending and was willing to leave it in the best place I thought I could but I didn't and continued to read. This book has many twists and turns and when I think I had it right I was wrong. It keeps you wondering until the end. So go grab this book and be prepared for the twists and turns.

I found myself laughing at some of the one star reviews of this book.  It's like they wouldn't know a good book if it bit them in the butt.  Someone had gotten agitated because of the name of the black panther.  This person must know nothing about animal lovers.  I have known dozens of people who named their animals "Midnight".  And that's a pretty tame name compared to some of the monikers out there.

Secondly, some of these same people need to get an imagination.  I don't think it's too far fetched that someone would take in a big cat.  I guess these individuals have never heard of exotic pets.  I've seen many videos of people playing with pet lions and tigers.  A black panther is no different.

Now onto the review of this book, haha.

Animal Instinct was not the best book I've read but, by far, definitely not the worst.  I've read some that damn near made my eyes bleed.  I thought it was wildly imaginative and exciting.  It's a novella, so there's not a lot of room for development but in the space that there was, I thought it was well done.

I thought it was perfectly fine that Viktor was Russian.  Someone mentioned that they didn't like that and I was confused.  What's not to like?  What, did they want them to be American?

I also enjoyed Cade and Finn and wish we could have seen more of them.  I really liked the idea of the shifters amongst Eve and her not knowing it.

It was a fun, short read!

Again, I've read all these reviews and suchwise. And I read that last reviewers review, and I think it is totally unfair for that person to give this book 1 star. Honestly, they must have it in for this author or something. How can you call this book NOT a step-by-step guide? The whole first section walks the user through building a database system. Later, there are even more step by step sections on building relational databases. Even later, there are more step by step sections.
Honestly, this book is the best combination of encyclopedic reference, step-by-step, beginner to advanced guide out there. One star? Bla! Let the other REAL reviews speak for themselves. Read the review on filemakerreview.com also for a huge long in depth positive review. I think it is also posted here on amazon. That one was written by a FMP guru. As well, there are other big names in FileMaker that have vouched for this book publicly. So don't believe that last review as it is a bunch of hooey.
Last, you'd have to be a total moron to expect the convert files written for FileMaker 6 ERROR FREE to FileMaker 7. Who does that? Someone who is a total amateur obviously. Gosh. Buy this book. It is the best one out there. Check out the contributor list. It is a Who's Who of the FileMaker World. How could it be trash? It isn't.

I, too, was going to join the ranks of the totally disgruntled customers, who felt that they had wasted their money on this product, until I read the review which said to press the (totally hidden) reset button in the battery compartment. ( This very tiny recessed button is located by removing the battery cover and looking on the outside of the battery compartment, on the opposite side from the speaker, and if you have really, really good eyes, in very good light, you can read the word," reset." The hole is about the diameter of a pin.)  Come on Brookstone!!!  Your products are usually better than this!
  Amazing!!!!  The unit is now back to working, thanks to pushing the magic reset button.  Why isn't this information in bold faced type in a trouble-shooting section?  It is only due to the posting of a generous customer on this site, that this device didn't end up in the dumpster.
  This is a poorly designed device, undeserving of the Brookstone label.

If you have question about a field on TurboTax they are terrible at understanding and answering the question.  They would rate at the bottom not more than a one star.  The people that they use to answer the question are not properly trained and lack understanding of their software.  The experience was bad enough that I  will not use TurboTax next year.  Thinking of using HR Block software.

I never review thing negatively because I feel most people will write a review if they hate something but maybe not if they liked it.  The 5 star reviews must be all family members.  I seriously could not consider giving this book any more than 2 stars.  It is like a novice writer wrote down a strange dream or like someone made a bet on how many plot twists they could put into a book.  The characters were all very underdeveloped and were neither likeable or unlikeable.  I had no emotional connection to this book at all.
