I am very happy with my purchase of the Kindle II. I made my purchase after a few months of research on the Nook and the Sony Reader. I couldn’t be more happy with my choice. It’s ease of use and being able to purchase books so quickly is the best! I also purchased one for my mother and she is even happier than I am : >

I took an intermediate ballroom dancing class and learned some swing steps. I then bought this DVD and added a lot of moves to our swing dance. The instructions are very clear and simple and easy to learn. This DVD is excellent, starting with the very basic moves on through advanced level. I didn’t much care for the CD that came with it but the DVD instruction is well worth the price.

Just think: 91 year old, J. D. will live on in teenage land forever! God Bless him for creating such a marvelous read.
I love this book because I can read it once a decade since I first encountered it in high school so many years
ago and like it just the same. Holden is forever lively, silly, young and engaging–and it still makes me
shake my head when I remind myself that the story takes place in the late 1940’s. Goes to show you things
really do not change–especially, the sporadic emotions of teens. But I need to say while Salinger’s little
novel is engaging, it is limited. I can understand why people are questioning its immense popularity.
Holden’s journey is just a “slice of life” and not a full story that merits classic fiction.

Its an great quality polarizer. If you shoot a lot of landscapes with sky, clouds, foliage or anything with a reflective surface (water, glass, etc) then this is for you. I spent a lot on this polarizer and rarely use it since I only do portraits/weddings. Expect 1/2-1 stop down with this on as well. Also, its a pain to use with the lens hood on.

I have followed this group my whole life, and only wish they had more quality DVD’s like this one availble. These guys are the best, no doubt whatsoever.
I am scared after looking at there web-site that they may be getting tired of the touring as nothing is on the books. I certainly hope they put out some new material within the next year or so as I think they have really hit their “writing stride” The new music on Falling in Between sounds new and fresh and one would think this would be hard to do for a band that has been around for three decades.
In short buy this DVD and turn it up. It will help if you have listened to the new CD, so if you haven’t buy it also.

I use the pedometer every day!! The big clip on the pedometer does not all ways hold but the small clip on the rope is strong & keeps me from loosing it. I would have to buy another one…Love It!!

I read this book for my monthly book club. It definitely brought up several hours of dialogue. Though I do not necessarily agree with everything the Author stated, it did make me think about a lot of things. It touched several members in my bookclub and for some they felt it depended on your personal relationship with God. Some of us just choose to follow the Bible instead of this book. However, we can respect that this is how the Author felt the Lord was talking to him.

Book: Artemis Fowl #1
Author: Eoin Colfer
By Alexander Hall

12-year-old Artemis Fowl is a criminal mastermind. It is his job to get his family fortune back. It all started when Russians sank his dad’s ship. Artemis Fowl Sr. had bought a cargo ship with 250 thousand cans of Coca Cola on it. He was going to sell it for money for years. Russians didn’t like the idea of an Irish tycoon selling all of it in their market. They sank his ship. No one has seen him since, so they all think he’s dead. Artemis Fowl Jr. has an idea. If he gets money from fairies, he can sell it and make millions. All he has to do is get an ancient rulebook for fairies, translate it, and capture a fairy. This would be easy for Artemis, considering that he is a kid prodigy. But this small kidnap will turn into a war.
This funny book for all ages will get you thinking. You will not know whose side to take because Eoin makes you feel like one of the fairy officers or one of Artemis’ butlers in every chapter. Will Artemis win? Or will the fairies wipe them out of existence?

I’ve just read the first one and am off to devour the second. Despite the fact that he’s 12, Artemis Fowl is funny, smart, and encompasses all the human failings an adult story should. I especially enjoyed Butler, with his obsessive need to protect his charge and his wickedly effective and funny ways of doing it. Juliet, his sister, annoyed me but added to the overall effect of the Fowl household.

Holly Short, the fairy LEP officer kidnapped by Artemis, was far from the all-knowing fairy folk we’re used to, and in fact this story makes consistent fun of many of the old tales. Makes fun of and expands on their stories, actually, producing a new world to enjoy.

The supporting cast is generally well-rounded, if a bit stereotyped and I hope Mr. Colfer will expand on each of them. All in all, very enjoyable and I look forward to the rest of the series.
