Artemis Fowl captivated me with his outrageous schemes and high-tech skills. I really got hooked on the scary fight with an enraged troll and the dangerous actions of an earth-gulping dwarf. The novel moves at the pace of a video game, pinging between battles and secrets revealed. I especially enjoyed the high-tech fairies, with their futurist’s gadgets and cranky suspicions about humans. The novel is also appealing if you enjoy breaking codes and sarcastic dialogue. My favorite character is Foley, a centaur with a smart mouth and the inventive talents of a next-generation Gyro Gearloose. I was caught up in the jeopardy of the story and am definitely going to read the series. I found it intriguing to have such an ambiguous main character. Artemis is a shady criminal, with unashamed greed, yet he’s also a lost boy without anywhere to belong. It will be intriguing to see his personality evolve in the next book.

I have read the book once and have listened to it in it’s entirety 4 times. This is my Bible. It has comfort me many times through the loss of parents and being broken heart by who I thought was the love of my life.

Through the Audio version I have always felt as though God was talking directly to ME. But every couple of years, I need to remind myself how much God loves me and is always there for me.

Even now, as I write this review, I feel like God is watching over my shoulder and I feel so much better about this day.

I have had several pedometers, some of which did not last, some which were not accurate, and some which kept resetting themselves without warning. So far this is the best pedometer I have ever had. It does everything it claims it can do. It has been extremely dependable. I keep track of every step I take, for the Move program at the VA, and average approximately 12000 steps per day. This pedometer has yet to miss a step.

This scale came in the mail a couple of days ago, and I really, really, really *wanted* to like it. It’s inaccurate.

Some background info: I’m dieting and losing weight. In the beginning when I was losing weight at 6 lbs, 4 lbs a week, my old scale worked ok. (Taylor brand, non digital) Now that I’m losing weight at the rate of 1 lb a week I needed a much more accurate scale.

Like everybody else I was led into this scale by the negative reviews but figured I’d take a chance at it. Not a good decision. I should have researched more.

Took it out, calibrated it, weighed myself, weighed myself with a 20 lb weight, weighed myself alone again. I repeated this test multiple times, and the first and second weights are always different, ranging from a difference in .2 to over a pound or more. This is unacceptable. I would give this scale four stars if it was only off by .2 lbs or .4 lbs, but it is off by more than that.

Weighing my 20 lb weight by itself yielded results of 20 lb and 20.2 lb. However, the scale is off by more than .2 lb when I weigh myself.

I am very disappointed and honestly feel like crying. I don’t know whether or not to return this scale, as it was a waste of $$ or try to contact the company and ask for a replacement. I go away to college soon and quite frankly don’t have a lot of time for dealing with this issue. My advice to other buyers: Don’t take a gamble on this, like I did. There are enough poor reviews here to negate all of the fabulous ones. Get a different scale. This one is useless if you are looking for a scale accurate to what this scale claims to be.

UPDATED REVIEW:

I returned this scale to Amazon.com. The company emailed me and left a message on this comment before I had done that, but I got a full refund, preferring to take my business elsewhere. The company sent me a new scale of the same model which I received in the mail today, which I was not expecting seeing as how I got a refund. But who is going to complain about getting some

This is the first time in over 50 years of reading that I was absolutely spellbound! I am addicted to the whole Twilight Series! I have only read a couple 500 page books in my life and they took me over a month each. I read all four of the Twilight series in one week each! Amazing stories, gripping drama and dripping romance! Wow, what a ride!
