Didn’t like the “step-on” (stomp-on) technology. Also found scale to vary by 3 or 4 pounds on readings minutes apart.
I returned it.

If you are looking for a vacuum cleaner that is no frills, easy to assemble, and has a 12 amp motor…look no further. I was going to get a Dyson until I did the math and realized I could get 5 of these for the same price and put one on every floor of my house and have 2 left over. Tired of cleaning filters? Yeah, me too. This one has the easy disposable bag that changes in 60 seconds. The dirt & dust in my house doesn’t know it is being sucked up by a $79 vacuum cleaner versus the $500 Dyson.

Like most people, I was required to read this book in the late 60s. I don’t have any recollection of being touched by it at all. I read it again in college, and either I thought it was all about disaffection and rejecting middle class values or I was told that by my teachers.

I glanced at it again over my daughter’s shoulder on a long plane ride a few years ago and couldn’t wait for her to finish so I could read it again. I was shocked to see that I had completely missed the point: it’s about Holden’s vertiginous fall into depression after the death of his little brother. His parents and his sister are all too damaged by their own grief to help him, and he’s struggling to feel something while avoiding feeling anything. These are familiar demons, beautifully evoked.

This is one book I hated to see end. Loved the characters, and it brought back memories of my youth. I was an adolescent in the early 60s. Growing up in northern Minnesota, I had no idea that life was really like this in the South. This book will be a permanent fixture on my bookshelf, and I will read it again someday.

I had bought a few cheap ones that never really worked well. This one is excellent for my daily walks. It is easy to use and seems to be pretty durable. I got it slightly wet when I got caught in the rain but it didnt hurt it.

Imagine you are told you are responsible for raising the children in a household, but since you carry any number of diseases as an African American woman, you may not use the toilets in the house although you must clean, change diapers and cook creative meals.

In addition, you must teach each youngster proper manners but you can never eat with family members or ever sit in the same room with them. Your pay is so poor you are capable of minimal subsistence. As an inferior being, you are expected to serve–obey without question or comment–or be fired.

You are allowed no real feelings because a black maid is incapable of having feelings. Yet, the children you care for fall in love with you and not their biological parents. You are their mother; you are their source of daily inspiration and love, you ease their pain when they hurt mentally or physically or spiritually.

All daily household chores are yours while you keep these children occupied so unaffectionate parents may go about their wasted day: fathers to manage their plantations or businesses, mothers to fritter away their time with meaningless social activities and/or cosmetic procedures.

An inhumane life impossible to imagine? Certainly! But such was the plight of the subservient women who labored as housemaids following the Emancipation Proclamation. With the Civil War ended, black women and men were now free–free, yes; free to become poorly paid, hated slaves of wealthy whites in the deep South, even in the 1960s.

In The Help, Aibileen and Minny dare to describe to a white woman the outrages they suffer as housemaids. The young white female is Skeeter, who leads two lives. 1) She acts interested in the meaningless social life of her mother and her own friends; 2) As an integrationist, Skeeter secretly wins the trust, and more importantly, the hearts of black maids who want their stories of mistreatment and enslavement known to the world. From earliest childhood, Skeeter disbelieved the ghastly prejudic

I bought this in order to accurately determine the miles, altitude, pace, etc. I was going both on my bike and on my runs. I have used the HR monitor feature yet as it is winter and I am a too lazy to add one more thing to my ensemble. The watch works great and the website is easy to use and wonderfully descriptive of every aspect. The watch has a lot of options and I am very satisfied. On the bike, having to wear it on my wrist isn’t the best and I actually have to push its buttons along with my bike computers buttons at the same time, but I bought this one instead of the one made for a bike so I could use it on runs, bike rides, hikes, etc. I already have cadence with my bike computer so I am taken care of in that regard. So far no problems and I am satisfied. The only think I haven’t figured out yet is how to access info like altitude from the watch. I have only been able to access this type of stuff from the website.

I recently purchased a Canon Rebel T1i and wanted a fast card to keep up with action shots. When I first got the camera I purchased some cards from Walmart that were a class 4, when using the continuous shooting mode the class 4 could only handle about 5-6 shots before my camera had to wait for the card to catch up. Today I put in this Class 6 Transcend card and it shot non stop for over 30 pics (I didn’t want to keep going). I have never used the more expensive brands so I am not sure how this compares to those but for the needs I have and the price I paid this can not be beat. Shipping only took a few days too. Great product.
