“Artemis Fowl” by Eoin Colfer, ©2001

I could not help thinking, “What if he had to hurt or even kill someone or something? Could he do it?” He is presented as a merciless criminal, and he is performing as such, but the situation is not developed that he would have to make such a choice. But he is only twelve years old, so the question is could he?
I always enjoy these teenager stories. They are so interesting and the stories are generally pretty good. This is the story of a little boy genius following in his fathers footsteps. His father was a criminal mastermind. His mother is distraught by is disappearance a year or so before the story.
Artemis Fowl acquires, by a bit of deceit a book of the elves, gnomes, dwarves, etc. With this book he concocts to get hold of a bunch of gold. He underestimates the power of the elves. They underestimate his power. In the end everyone is happier, though the elves are a bit poorer. He gets his mother healed by the power of one of the elfs.

I love Word 2007. I can do so much with it. It has made the documents that I have to create for work so easy and really professional looking. I was asked the other day, if one of the documents that I created was done in indesign, which is a professional graphic program.

I love this product and would buy it again in a heartbeat.

This unit is used by my 12-year old daughter, who loves it. She uses it mostly for programs, not music. Go figure.

Biggest downsides:

1. Large for a music player, but then again, it’s not really for music, now is it?
2. Needs iTunes (although there are alternatives out there). iTunes is absolutely frustrating and works in a non-intuitive way for people who can think (i.e., Windows users). Even my daughter, who doesn’t have pre-conceived notions about Mac vs. Windows doesn’t understand how iTunes is set up.

Beautiful, beautiful book! I loved it. Got so wrapped up in the characters that I read till almost 5 in the morning one night. I was sad it had to end but felt uplifted when it did. Made me see how far we’ve come but aware of how far we have yet to go. This was one I wanted to read before I went on active duty but just ran out of time. When I got home off active, it was first thing I downloaded to new nook. And I truly am s glad I did.

this might have been the best choice i’ve ever made buying stuff on amazon. after trying out different scales in targets (weight watchers and the taylor line) and macys (the homedic line) and looking up their reviews i saw that their praise doesn’t stack up to the amount of good reviews for this scale. (the most impressive review is the one that has a video clip where the reviewer is trying out the scale himself… watch it if you haven’t seen it) i wasn’t able to find a place that sells this scale so i blindly trusted all the reviews and purchased it without testing it. let me tell you, this scale is worth every penny. its accurate and precise – it so scary consistent that i thought maybe the scale was cheating and storing the initial weight it measures when someone first steps on it. i made my brother step on it to see if the number would change or if he would get the same numbers as i did… it gave him a different number for his weight that mine which is what was expected. i stepped back on, i got the same number it showed me before my brother stepped on. my brother stepped back on, and he got the number it gave him the first time. scary. initially i wanted a body composition scale by tanita but after reading about the inaccuracy and science of how those scales worked, i opted for the best regular scale and fat measurement calipers. hands down, this is the best regular scale i’ve ever used.

I have a short-haired dog, so I was skeptical as to how much hair it actually grabs. But, as advertised, it traps about 90-95% of my dog’s hair in the bristles. Plus he loves getting an all over body scratch!

The Springer is a great product for running your dog but watch out on this seller. You can get the springer from springer’s website for $48 dollars and other stores. I’ve seen it local for $80 (which is claimed to be the msrp) but the price here is simply a rip off. Sad…

A book titled “Conversations with God” can be read from three basic perspectives: 1) the reader can accept this as the absolute word or holy bible of an objective God (i.e. God stands apart from us as an Almighty Creator who sits in judgment of His creation); 2) the reader reads it as a dialogue with a subjective God (God does not stand apart and sit in judgment of us); and 3) the reader treats it as an interesting work of creative fiction.

A careful reading of this book should preclude the first perspective. The philosophy contained in these pages maintains that God is subjective. In other words, we are part and parcel of God and therefore we can know God experientially. If God is an ocean, then we are each a drop from that ocean. Therefore a conversation with God is the same as a conversation with our own divine nature–our higher (or highest) inner self. I read the book from this perspective, which enabled me to respect the thoughts therein as being perhaps divinely inspired, while still taking it all with a grain of salt.

I found the book to be interesting, inspiring, and perhaps even enlightening. I have read quite a bit of spiritual philosophy, ranging from “new age” to traditional religions and many paths in between. While many of the traditional established religions contain a lot of negativity in the way of threats of horrific consequences for displeasing God, I found it refreshing that there is none of that here. Walsch’s God doesn’t care what you do, but created life with immutable laws such as karma (cause and effect). You are free to do as you please and God will not get angry at you or condemn you to hell. Walsch’s God maintains that we were all created to be Gods unto ourselves, and that whether we realize it or not, we are creating every aspect of our own reality both consciously and unconsciously every moment.

This is a really nice product. Love how sturdy it is and how solid it is attached into the hitch, does not move.
The drop down feature works very well and lets me open my SUV gate. My SUV window clears just fine to open while it’s up.

I like the THULE anti sway and holders a bit better, (they seem to hold a bit better) but these work fine. I also like the two removable arms better than the fold down on the competition. Specifically it keeps people from swiping your rubber tie downs and the arms dont get all gunked up with dirt and road grunge.

I had my rack shipped to me and one of the plastic anti sways had cracked in transit. An email to customer service and I had TWO free replacements with straps in a few days. That is service! I’m very happy with my Softride. Oh, it looks cool too.

Over the years I’ve had several pedometers, always thinking each would be better than the last. Now my search is finally over. The Omron is great and ONLY regsiters my actual steps rather than others that have registered sitting and standing up, and any number of other non-stepping moves. I’m very happy because I can now get a much truer reading of my steps throughout the day. And I can either clip the Omron to my waistband or put it in my pocket and it’s equally as effective.
