Great deal, great product. I do wish it still had Outlook. I didn’t use it for email, but I did use it for my address book and mail merge. I haven’t found a good alternative.

I bought this book just a week or so before Salinger died. I finished the book I was reading a few days after his passing and decided to finally read this alleged masterpiece — and masterpiece it is, indeed. I wish I would have read it when I was 17, but alas, I waited until age 31. Nevertheless, I remember what it was like to be 17, and honestly, I related to the character Holden Caulfield a lot today; even as a married father and professional “phony.” I can only imagine how utterly groundbreaking this book must have been when it was first published in 1951.

What I loved about the book: I could say “everything,” because I did, but I’ll give a few specifics. First, I loved the voice in which it was written. Holden is sarcastic, snotty, and just way too cool for almost everything — just like I was when I was 17. I loved the exaggerations and hyperbole. I identified with his descent into near-madness, being in that awkward stage between childhood and adulthood, not knowing what to do, not really understanding or not wanting to deal with the consequences of your actions, really just not being ready to grow up. As Holden wanders New York in a sleep-deprived stupor, he explores these issues within his mind; he jumps from one feeling to another, and breaks down and cries more than once. It truly is a powerful novel, and one of the three best I’ve ever read. Five stars all the way.

The book is just 214 pages and a breeze to read. If you haven’t read it, you should. I’ve been reading a lot of “classic” novels lately and this is the first one that I know for a fact I will be reading again in the future. I could see myself reading this every couple of years for the rest of my life — it was that good.

Like I said in my review of the black leather cover, this was a birthday gift. I have talked to many people about the KINDLE and everyone has praised it highly. I wasn’t sure that I would like reading a book like this, but I will probably never buy another book. The real truth is I am reading faster than ever before because I was able to increase the size of the font. The battery really last a long time and it has been perfect for all the traveling I do. People on the planes are always asking me about it. I plan on getting one for each of my daughters and husband for their birthdays this year.

Amazon, you really have a hit. Please see if you can do something like the NOOK is doing as far as getting to share books with others who have the KINDLE. This would be another great marketing tool.

LOVE, LOVE MY KINDLE!!!!!

Let’s see what the truth of God’s Word says (as it speaks for itself, without human word)in comparison to ‘Conversations of God’ false proclamation of God.

For ALL HAVE SINNED and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23) and the wages of sin is DEATH, but the GIFT OF GOD is eternal life in CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD (Romans 6:23). And just as it is appointed for a man to die once, and then comes judgement (Hebrews 9:27).

For it is BY GRACE you have been saved, through faith, and that not of yourselves, for it is the GIFT OF GOD, not by works, lest anyone should boast (Ephesians 2:8-9) but God demonstrated HIS OWN LOVE FOR US, in that WHILE WE WERE STILL SINNERS CHRIST DIED FOR US (Romans 5:8).
“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will FORGIVE US OF OUR SINS and purify us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9)

Genesis 2: 20b -23
But for ADAM(MAN)NO SUITABLE HELPER was found. So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and closed up the place with flesh. Then the LORD God made a WOMAN from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.
The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for she was taken out of man.”

1 Corinthians 6:9-10 – “Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.”

Deuteronomy 4:2- Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the LORD your God that I give you.
Proverbs 30:5-6-”Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. Do not add to his words,or he will rebuke you and prove you a LIAR.
Revelation 22:18-19 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this

I absolutely loved it. I couldnt put it down and just loved the way that the story unfolded.

Eoin Colfer has earned my undying admiration: He writes a truly entertaining and unique youth novel. Artemis Fowl is complex, it’s unpredictable, it’s imaginative, it has some gruesome descriptions, and it is really, really good.

Colfer’s focal point is the wanna-be evil boy genius. He’s all genius, but he can’t quite bring himself to be truly evil, and the conflict in character is fascinating to read. Colfer latches on to a real problem that so many youth identify with, sadly–the absentee parents for reasons that even they can’t always help. Although Colfer acknowledges this issue, he doesn’t preach, he just lets it be, and allows Artemis to make his own mess and dig his way out.

Colfer’s imaginative LEP unit and Foaly are great fun to read. I can’t wait to get into the second novel, and I would not hesitate to recommend this series to any upper elementary/middle school aged reader, either in years or at heart. :D Order the series without reserve and enjoy!

good light for city road night ride. fit over a 31.8 mm handle bar, bright enough for riding at night on city road. I would like the beam pattern to be wider though. Not bad for the price, and Planet Bike 3044 Blaze 1-Watt LED Headlight looks quite good.

Best bang for the buck.. I like that the headlight case is black. I live on a rural paved street with no streetlights. I took Planet Bike Blaze 1-Watt Headlight and Suplerflash Taillight Combination Bicycle Light Set for a test drive the first night, plenty of light for a casual ride. Personally, I wouldn’t go for a ride in unfamiliar territory as the beam is fairly focused in front of you. Meaning, you adjust the mount up and down for distance or close illumination. You can’t really have both. It does illuminate both lanes of the road. Perhaps a second lower power light for the close up illumination would be a great combo for some folks. Mount is easily adjustable for different size handlebars. The powerful flashing feature is why I bought this light, for daytime visibility.

The tail light installed quickly and has the super bright flashing capability as well.
