I bought this SDHC card for my Pentax k-x. For those of you with that camera, it’s a great choice. It works perfectly with the Pentax, and seem to keep up with HD video. I mostly do photos, and for that it was near perfect, even trying out HDR photography.

I don’t know if one SDHC card is better than another (I doubt it), so why not get the biggest size you can afford. This one has worked perfectly.

UPDATE: I was contacted by the EatSmart company and they sent me a new scale. The new one works great and we are quite pleased. Thanks for taking care of this!

This scale is very nice looking and I liked the big display. The only problem is it quit working the day after I received it. The day it arrived I put in the provided batteries and weighed myself. That evening my husband weighed himself and he really liked the scale, too.

The next morning, my weigh in day, I stepped on and nothing. Step off and on again several times and the thing is dead. I went and got fresh batteries, put them in, and the scale lights up and displays “Lo” indicating low batteries even though I just put fresh batteries in. I wasn’t about to keep messing with it so it has been returned.

I gave this scale to my parents for a gift. Seven months later, they noticed it started not functioning quite right. They talked to customer service, and a BRAND NEW scale arrived the NEXT DAY! That’s Great Service!! Thanks for standing behind your products!

Think of a juvenile James Bond with an IQ beyond Einstein’s. Then throw him in a world of technologically superior fairies, and the fun can begin.

And this is really what Artemis Fowl is about, first and foremost: FUN.

Some might say it reverts too easily to stereotypes, but I am not sure whether this is actually a bad thing. Too much depth, too much complexity in character development, might have taken the umpf out of the sheer fun ride I’ve had in reading Artemis.

The basic idea of the book–for those new to Fowl’s world–is that there is an underground world of fairies who go to great pains to keep their existence a secret from the human upper world. Until Artemis, a young criminal master mind, tracks down the fairies and upsets the whole balance of the worlds above and below ground.

In summary: Don’t expect the symbolism of Narnia, the metaphysics of His Dark Materials, or the detail of Harry Potter. Artemis Fowl doesn’t have any of those. Instead, expect to be blasted away by the explosive energy of a fun novel.

I have used a running watch for 40 years and been satisfied. The 305 came as a present. I am delighted with the features and I am beginning to explore all kinds of new running experiences with its help.

This Steamvac is a great way to clean carpets inexpensively. I have used a RugDoctor before and the SteamVac definitely did a much, much better job and it did not leave my carpets soaked. It is very loud…but aren’t all vacuums and such? I would recommend using very hot water. The machine was even pulling out dirt with no cleaning solution too. I have had a great experience using the Steamvac.

My oldest son was surprised to hear that J.D. Salinger fought in World War II. He thinks of Holden Caulfield as a contemporary, a peer, anachronistically making his way through a few days of life. The period references in the novel are like props on a movie set, no more real than the phonies Holden encounters. It’s perplexing that so many of my son’s classmates felt no connection to Holden after reading The Catcher in the Rye this past year. We are told on TV, on the internet and in movies that our teenagers and young adults are increasingly savvy, mature and perceptive. When it comes to technology, they certainly are. But most of students in the class considered Holden a whiny freak without realizing that often, it’s the whiny freaks who walk through life with the clarity of sight and earnestness needed to leave this existence a little better than it was when we entered it. The story itself is a masterpiece. Salinger was firing on all cylinders and tapping into the strange other-worldly literary omnipotence we usually attribute to Shakespeare when he wrote Catcher. It’s interesting to wonder whether he was even aware of everything he was doing in the book or if he was like a pro athelete who enters “the zone” and emerges at the end of the game a puzzled hero. Every time one of Holden’s apologists dies, as his creator did this past week, a piece of Holden dies with them. Fortunately, he is as viral as one of my son’s favorite You Tube videos. When we follow his exploits, Holden’s DNA intertwines with our own and is propagated in everything we say and do. Fortunately, he will never completely die, but will continue to confound those who think him merely a whiny freak. RIP Holden Caulfield. Only Shot At A Good Tombstone

Absolutely love this product. If it operated with a way to access the Internet wirelessly when no wifi is available this little gadget would be perfect. I do find that streaming videos on utube are really slow and have jerky refresh rates.
