A semi-private Paris shuttle is a reliable, relatively inexpensive and comfortable way to get from the airport to your local accommodations. But there are some potential annoyances that if you are unprepared for them could ruin the whole experience.

The biggest potential downside to using a Paris shuttle is the fact that you may need to wait for other passengers to arrive before the shuttle will leave. And if those other passengers are on different airlines the wait could be long. Bring something to do in the meantime.

The drive to your accommodations could also take a while if you are the last to be dropped off. Of course, this is less of a problem, especially for first-time visitors, since the sightseeing from the shuttle will be an exciting experience in and of itself.

Many movers in California today offer either exclusively or as an added service vehicle transportation.

This is important for people moving to California from a distant location, or leaving California for a new home somewhere far away.

Why exactly would this be important?

Well, in most families today, teenagers have their own cars. When you move, someone has to drive all of your family's cars to the new home. But most parents do not relish the thought of their teenager driving for 10 hours or more cross-country. The potential to get tired and have an accident or to simply get lost are far too great.

So next time you make a big move, get a mover for your cars as well as your other belongings.

Pool games for the iPhone are becoming quite common. So, like any flooded market, it is time for developers to start really innovating if they want users to buy their product.

The aptly named Killer Pool may be just the kind of innovative game to really get iPhone users excited this holiday season.

Billed as "the most realistic pool game on the iPhone," Killer Pool features a full range of different pool games from 8-Ball to 9-Ball to UK Black Ball.

Gameplay is very smooth and as realistic as you can get on a device as small as the iPhone. Users simply swipe their finger to shoot, using small twists to spin the ball in one direction or the other.

The Cook County Sheriff's Office in Chicago used a very innovative way of bringing in more than 60 wanted fugitives this holiday season.

The Associated Press reports that Sheriff Tom Dart sent out what appeared to be standard holiday surveys to a long list of fugitives. The mailings included a special offer card that promised recipients $500 for showing up at a local hotel and participating in a face-to-face survey.

When the criminals showed up, instead of receiving reward money they were taken into custody.

The ruse likely saved the police department thousands of dollars hunting down the wanted men.
