Artemis Fowl has been presumed dead, his wife Angeline Fowl is ill to the point of madness; the Fowl criminal empire has fallen. But twelve year old Irish criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl II plans change this. He’s gotten his hands on a copy of the Book, the sacred text of the People. And the People are…Fairies. They are creatures that live in secret from the Humans, but cunning Artemis knows about them. Once Artemis gets the book, he knows all their secrets. When he kidnaps and holds for ransom Holly Short, a Fairy, a captain of the LEPrecon unit, he thinks he has them right where he wants them. And he almost does. Almost.

Some people have said that author Eoin Colfer tried and failed to paint a charming anti-hero. I disagree. You know why? Because he’s not supposed to be an anti-hero, hell, he’s not even an anti-villain, he’s a flat-out villain. And a superb one at that. Really, the guy excels at Xanatos gambits and Xanatos speed chess, how awesome is that? He’s affably evil, always with his vile remarks, always several steps ahead. Artemis Fowl refreshed me, and I enjoyed wondering how everything would unfold.

Eoin Colfer actually explains how hidden Elves, Goblins, Dwarfs, and the like could really exist. He doesn’t claim that they’re there just because they are. He properly surrounds his creations with realism and history. I must applaud him for that.

All of the Fairy characters worked very well, particularly Commander Root, Foaly the Centaur, Mulch Diggums the Dawrf (surprisingly), and of course, Holly. Root at first seemed like someone to hate, but he actually turned out to be a respectable veteran. Foaly was the sarcastic computer genius, the banter that shoots back and forth between him and Root was hilarious. Glad to see Holly wasn’t some annoying typical girl character, I actually really liked her. Mulch was awesome; he’s such a unique and crazy-ass kleptomaniac. A surprising amount of time is spent on him, and that’s a good thing.

The Defender is a great product and offers a much higher level of protection than any other case I’ve seen, but it’s not foolproof. I have probably dropped my iphone about 20 times since got it in Nov. However, on Christmas eve I had it laying in my lap and stood up. My iphone dropped to the tile floor and when I picked it up the LCD screen was white with blue and red lines running the length of the screen on the right side. I took it to a repair shop and had to have the screen replaced. I too have the oil slick issue but its not a big deal to me. The biggest problem is the reason that I have dropped it so much is that every time I have it in the belt clip and happen to bump the belt clip even with my arm or hand the phone will fall out of the clip. Since the screen replacement and the belt clip issue I just carry it in my pocket. I work construction and have pretty much ruined or broken every phone I’ve had, but thought that this case would maybe help this one survive. Sorry folks but the jury is still out.

Why a pedal wrench? Typically, an open end box wrench is too thick to fit between the pedal and the crank. Thinner wrenches can flex and break if you put too much torque on them. The Park Tool is thin enough to fit and thick enough to not bend or break. Two sizes allow fitment with most pedals out there.

I like this particular Pedometer because I can drop it in my pocket at the beginning of the day and it will count my steps all day.I have also put it in my purse, but am not really sure of the accuracy of the count. I really like the fact that I don’t have to “dangle” it from my waist. Since I don’t often have belt loops, I dropped other pedometers more than a few times. I love knowing how many steps I take in a day and it automatically resets itself after midnight. I shoot for 10,000 steps a day.

This is my first vehicle GPS. Overall I am very pleased. It doesn’t do anything annoying that I have noticed with a few friends’ GPSs, such as beeping or complaining if you go a bit off track or too fast. Many people complain about it doesn’t actually say when it recalculates a route, but I’d rather for it to just tell me what the route is instead of a background task.

It also will repeat upcoming turns at a few set intervals, such as right when the previous turn was completed, at 2mi, and at .5mi. It will then make a jingle right when you approach the actual turn so there isn’t that confusion if its this light or the next one.

There were also a bunch of complaints with the auto-zoom feature. I can understand if you like to have complete control over every aspect of the display, but I have never had a problem with it zooming in and out of an intersection. The auto zoom levels have always been pretty good for what I need.

The only thing I don’t care for too much is it can take a bit for the initial start up. You need to think about turning it on right when you get in the car so its all set to go when you are.

I was worried about the size, but I never notice it. It is great to use on the bike and for running. It is very accurate and easy to sync with the computer. It has really pushed my training to the next level.

This card worked great for 2 months, during which time it traveled to Istanbul and New York with me. Unfortunately, halfway through my trip to New York it failed. I have been unable to use it in my camera since then, although unlike some reviewers I was able to get my photos off of the card.

I was really expecting something stupid when i went to theaters for this, well its been over a decade since 2, you kind of get that feeling it is going to suck. I was surprised, the beginning is a little sick with the male stripper but everything runs smoothly, the action does seem over the top at times, but hey, it’s Terminator. Pretty Lengthy too, some scenes are really not needed but the movie still does well either way. I have to say, for a franchise that hasn’t been around for a decade, it is pretty damn good.
