This watch is really elegant. Considering the price and the quality, I cannot mention any drawback. It’s worth buying.

Guidebook to Ohio Taxes
I always heard that this book was a classic and must be read, blah, blah, blah. Well, I finally did and its all that and more. I’m actually upset that I didn’t read this in high school because Holden Caufield reminds me of myself at that age. Salinger’s voice of a the teenage main charcater is so on point its really amazing. Every college freshmen, especially males, should be made to read this. Classic!

I read lots of reviews about lots of vacuums before purchasing this vacuum. I was hoping it was as good as everyone said, and I was not disappointed!! It was very reasonably priced, and does a great job! I have owned several canisters and bagless vacs. I am partial to canisters because of the ease in reaching under things. But this one has a low profile, so it does a pretty good job reaching the places I need to reach. And the first time I started, I found out quickly that I had better have a firm grip on the handle- the power head will pull the thing right out of your hand and the vac will take off on its own across the floor. Sound-wise, it is really not any louder than most of my previous vacs, and quieter than the Fantom Fury I just retired. I read that the power head will throw dirt around on tile and wood floors. I mainly have carpet, so I haven’t experienced this yet. Seems to do OK on the small amount of hard floors I have. We have cats, and with a separate attachment I picked up for this purpose (didn’t come with the vacuum), the vac does a great job picking up cat hair.
The only negatives I have found are:
- Since it is a small vac, the bags are small- so buy extras.
- The cord is a little too short- Be ready to unplug and plug in a lot if you have much space to cover.
- The hose is really short. I think I will be buying an extension hose soon.
- As expected with an inexpensive unit, the attachments are very basic.
In summary, I am very pleased so far. Hopefully it will last long enough for me to get my money’s worth.

Ok, I will admit to be biased. Stevens is a unix programming god. Or mine anyway.
However, I will dare say that again he has improved his previous good work. I felt that he improved and showed a lot more in his second edition of Volume I, and I felt the same way about volume II. While his was HARDLY the first serious book on thread programming that I have read (I also suggest programming with Posix Threads, if it interests you), his was very informative, from both a beginner and advanced standpoint. If you have only one author to buy, this is it.

I have a car with a really curvy dash board,almost impossible to fit a disk and I didn’t care to have it pasted on the windshield leaving rings so the puplic know’s I use one. This one will not move even in a storm. The customer service went way above what was expected and I couldn’t be happier with them and their products..Good Job

I got this particular product originally when I was participating in a medical school diabetes study on walking and it’s affect on blood sugar. I had had three cheap pedometers before. They were either totally inaccurate or broke within a month. This one is so good, that I purchased another one for my neighbor who has had a quadruple bypass and needs motivation to exercise. I wasn’t at all surprised to see this reviewed as the best pedometer in Consumer Reports a few months ago. It is lightweight, accurate, (we have compared the distance with the car odometer on several of our walking routes,) and the attached frame with clip has kept me from losing it more times than I can count! I clip it to my waistband, and sometimes find it dangling there. It is also supposed to be OK if you wear it in a pocket, although I have not tried that, as most women’s clothing does not have enough (or any!) pockets. The cheap pedometers I have had before were so inaccurate that they picked up vibration from driving in the car, and counted that as steps. Others could not be set to my stride length, which this one can. I recommend it highly. It is easy to use, once you get through the hassle of measuring your average stride length. As a bonus, since I began using it, it has helped me to walk more, and my blood sugar is under very good control. My doctor and diabetes educator are thrilled!
