I’m very happy with how easy it is to set up the pedometer and the results in steps as well as aerobic steps.

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.

Opteka 85mm f 1

When we finally got around to buying our first HDTV we were shocked to find the HDMI cable at our local Radio Shack to be $145! It was supposedly the best (Monster brand) but I looked online and found this one and decided to give it a try. By the time it came we had been using the expensive cable for a few days so we had a good idea of how it performed. We plugged the cheaper one in and took the other one back, no difference at all! We saved ourselves over $140! So glad we found this one.
