Using in a Canon SX1IS camera. The 1080p video writes fine. Cannot detect and appreciable lag. Only complaint – how can they call this an 8 gig card when in reality you can only access a little over 7 gig?

Stephenie Meyer is a master writer and TWILIGHT, the first book of the Twilight Saga, is her masterpiece. Here is where we meet Bella and Edward. Here is where we understand the star-crossed nature of their love. Meyer takes self-loathing to an exquisite fever pitch with her tortured vampire, Edward. Never mind teenagers and teeny boppers, Meyer should be studied by literature and creative writing majors in college and her book(s) enjoyed by a broader, more intellectually mature audience. She is that outstanding.

The card has proven to be unreliable & defective. It will no longer upload to my PC or any other device. It indicates “Memory Card Error”. The camera manual recommends reformatting which deletes the photos. The photos can still be viewed on the camera. The card is beyond the 30 day return for electronics but I am waiting Amazon’s reply to my request for a return with proration. Transcend may be a low quality knockoff but many have been sold and apparently used without problems.

Colfer, E. (2001). Artemis Fowl. New York: Hyperion Paperbacks for Children.

Artemis Fowl is not only to tale of the ingenious and villainous Artemis Fowl, but also the Story of Captain Holly Short, the first female to protect the magical people by joining LEPrechaun force.

Artemis, whose mother is unwell since his father was lost in the Arctic, searches with his friend and protector, Butler, to restore the Fowl fortune. This leads Artemis into trouble with the magical world when he takes Holly hostage. From there Artemis must match wits with LEP’s best agents and one of the magical community’s sneakiest criminals.

The book allows students to question their own cultural norms, as humans are called Mud People and their (our) practices are called into question.

The story includes subtle environmental messages. It also blurs the lines between genres, as it includes both sci-fi and fantasy elements. But most of all, this is a fun series for the young action-adventure lover to become addicted to.

Plus, Artemis is a Mac user, the clever boy.

Activities to do with the book:

This is a book is a great adventure story to help to get students immersed in a story. It lends itself to role-play since students can have fun being a villainous and powerful child genius.

Since some complain that the Artemis Fowl books are hard to visualize, students could create their own illustrations to help with this or create their own adventures for some of the supporting characters.

Favorite Quotes:

“How does one describe Artemis Fowl? Various psychiatrists have tried and failed. The main problem is Artemis’s own intelligence. He babboozles every test thrown at him. He has puzzled the greatest medical minds, and sent many of them gibbering to their own hospitals” (p. 1).

“The Mud People destroyed everything they came into contact with. Of course they didn’t live in the mud anymore. Not in this country, at least. Oh no. Big fancy dwellings with room for everything–rooms for sleep
