This item is great especially if you are working in an office as it gives you an idea/overview of how much (or how little) you are doing daily. 10000 steps per day is longer than it seems… It definitely is a motivational tool to get you out and about.

If you are getting into jogging or running, it’s also a great help with trying to see how far and long you have been on the move.

It’s light, compact, doesn’t get in the way, and is easy to use. I keep it on my purse and with me everyday.

It’s definitely for the simpler sportsman/woman or if you’re just starting to get active, and want to keep track of your activity a bit.

If you are an advanced walker/runner, who needs a GPS system and heart rate monitor, this is probably not the item for you.

Overall, was worth the buy!

- this watch would be SO much more useful with a second hand
- the seconds are only visible in a tiny digital display – if you
are over 40 you must use reading glasses to see them
- other than that it is a good watch – it really deserves a second hand

Summary – great cleaning, a bit heavy. I have used this a couple of times so far. Came out better than the professional cleaning I had done 2 yrs ago.

Cleaning – use recommended amount of detergent (low sudsing) and the hottest tap water you can and this will clean very well. The first carpet I attacked was the family room which had not been deep cleaned in quite a while. The take-up tank was full of very dark brown water after the first pass. Did a second pass and it took up even more. Again, this carpet was pretty bad.

Rinse – There is no “rinse mode” but that doesn’t matter. Just fill the tank with clean hot water, don’t add any detergent, and guess what? Rinses. I did rinse also and after it dried it seemed to help the feel of the carpet.

Maintenance – I had none of the leaking issues mentioned. You just need to be sure to properly seat the tanks and everything is fine. Definitely take the 10 minutes to clean the machine after you have used it. The spin scrub brushes come out easily, remove them, rinse them well and pull out any trapped carpet fiber. I have a spray type sink faucet and that seems to do a great job in rinsing the take-up tank. There are a lot of reservoir type spaces in the tank and turning it upside down and spraying up at it seems to work well.

Water use – The tank covered about 80 sq ft but I used the clean surge feature, which also works well, quite a bit on this carpet. Otherwise probably a tank for a 10 x 10 area.

Suction drying – The carpet was damp when done (these were short pile carpets also) but dry within 4-6 hrs.

The only slight “negative” – it is a bit heavy but that seems to help keep the nozzle on the floor and help with suction.

I bought this at the suggestion of a friend who was also taking up running. I used it for several weeks leading up to my first 5K. Very useful in helping you set and keep a pace, especially when running with others. I also like the fact that I can upload the information and share it with others online so they can see how I’m doing. The only issue I’ve had with it is sometimes it drops out GPS signal when close to buildings running or in heavy tree cover. Otherwise it’s a 5 star product.

Easy to set up. Network connection was easy.
The Remotes and Nunchucks are a bit spendy when you have to buy three more of each. The Wii usually only comes with one set. Altho, you can hold off on the Nunchucks as there aren’t very many multipayer games where you can use three or more people that need the Nunchucks. Usually just two people need it. And then you’ll have to buy the Game Pad to play the older games if you are used to using it. But then some of the Wii’s are now coming with the rubber “protectors” already on the Remotes so that’s great.

A blast when playing with more then one person on some of the games. We haven’t really bought many games for it as the grand kids are just getting to the point of being able to play now. The attention span just isn’t there yet. The games we do have are great to play.

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.

I am now on my second Hoover Tempo Widepath Upright Vacuum. I bought my first one 2 years ago, and for some reason it stopped working. Although I didn’t like that I needed to buy a new one so soon, the price makes it painless! I thought about trying to get it fixed, but it would be cheaper to buy a new one. The vacuum has great suction, and works better than more expensive vacuums that I have purchased. I would agree though that the cord could be longer. If you are looking for a GREAT inexpensive vacuum, you have found it.

I don’t care what anyone says, the Wii is fabulous. This one was bought for my 75 year old mother. The whole extended family, from 2 year olds to 80 year olds enjoy playing Wii games. None of us are true gamers and I think many of the elitist reviews are some sort of video game snobbery. Pretty much everyone, but the 2 year old, is able to instantly play and enjoy all the Wii games. The fitness benefits are also tremendous. There are so many games available that give you a work out while you are having fun. I recommend the Wii to everyone. It is well worth the money.

While I’ve never deviated from the OEM cartridges, I’ve always purchased these refills from the HP store. While purchasing products on-line from Amazon one day, I happened to review their printer supplies. Same OEM product but at a lower price and as always the same stellar 2 day Prime shipping. Perfect!

I read this book back in high school many moons ago and when I saw it was coming out again I had to have it. This is an excellent read.
