After reading many reviews on this product, I can report that it performed as expected, and much better than the previous steam-vac that I owned. Although I don’t seem to see the point of the Clean Surge feature, the brushes do a great job of getting the carpet clean and the powerful motor does leave the carpet nearly dry, if you go over it 2 or 3 times. It removed several stains that the old steam-vac could not remove. I did read the directions for assembly and did consult the trouble shooting guide to solve a function problem. The downside of this item is that the reservoir is a bit small and has to be emptied more frequently than my old machine. Further, if you don’t get this tank seated just right, with all pieces in place, it will not operate. Overall, a good purchase for me.

Is there anything left to be said about The Catcher in the Rye? All I want to add is that this edition comes in a neat little package; The font is old-school, stands out from the modern editions and is pleasant to read, while the dust jacket is matte, and has a nice feeling of velvet to it.

Great software package. Kids use these programs at school all the time. Now we have them at home to use all the time.

The Black Keys must have travelled in a time machine from 1969 to today, having listened to Robert Johnson and John Lee Hooker, then heard what the Rolling Stones and The Yardbirds did with it, adding some heavy drums that sound like baseball bats pounding … I just couldn’t believe my ears when I first heard this, then hearing this amazing album, one of the best discoveries I’ve made lately. While I’m shocked the Keys haven’t made it big (not so much considering the crap that does) I’m kinda glad, that way they won’t get corrupted by stardom, like so many good ones have. My wife who doesn’t like anything newer than Skynyrd was moving to it. That says it all,

To put this in perspective I am 81. When I was first introduced to this game my thought was, this is for children. When I started playing the tennis game I found I was getting an enjoyable aerobic workout. I have since purchased my own Wii sports package game and have truly enjoyed the game and the health benefits derived from it. I would highly recommend this for all ages. The only reason I rated the game over all at 4 stars is that I wish they had made the game so it could be played one on one as well as they have it now with two people on each side.

It aims to be a book, which is what I want, and accomplishes its goal wonderfully. Brownie points for no backlight, and also for not emphasizing the internet(I don’t want to be distracted by the internet- I want to read!).

I was not impressed with the book. Yes, it is intriguing and well-written. But the “wisdom” is what I would expect an articulate, well-versed liberal arts professor to say. So much of it is what we want to hear, what we want to believe. I felt like Neale created a God that placates people, tells them what they want to hear, tells of the wisdom of this age. I have read and studied several religious texts, from the Bible, the Koran, the Torah, etc. In my studies I came to know that the Bible holds the truth of God – but this is a realization for all of us to have individually with God. I actually picked up CwG before I came to believe in the Bible – and I put it down after I read it thinking that the book was filled with man’s wisdom. I had a course in college that taught the same thing. I was seeking God’s true wisdom and studied Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, etc.

This book is nothing new, and tells people what they want to hear – not the truth of things. I don’t think God was the one moving Neale’s pen, I believe it was Neale’s own thoughts and wisdom moving his pen.

So, you can choose to listen to God’s truth or Neale’s truth. But this book is clearly full of Neale’s truth. The book takes basic modern-day mysticism tenets and attributes them to God moving Neale’s pen so Neale can enlighten the world.

Bought this iPod for my wife to make it easier for her to enjoy her music and meditations. iTunes is very easy to use to download any kind of music, etc. Should have bought this item alot sooner than I did.

I’ve been an on-again-off-again runner for years, and never bothered to use more than a heartrate monitor when running regularly. Last month I signed up for a half-marathon scheduled for August 2010. When I began looking into various training programs to get me ready for the run, I realized I was either going to have to spend some tedious time online mapping out my routes in order to be sure I was running the correct mileage on my training runs…or I could invest in something that would do that for me. I initially thought I wanted something smaller on my wrist, but since the smaller versions of the Forerunner cost twice as much, I decided I could handle the larger size.

I invested in the 305, have been using it for a week, and am very happy with it.

One thing I haven’t seen in any previous reveiws is a mention of the tiny font used for the heartrate information. I was hoping I could do something about that: customize a screen, for instance, to make it larger, but I haven’t found any way to do so. When I’m running, especially in dim light, I need to stop for a moment and peer at the tiny numbers to check my heartrate. Since this is a heartrate monitor in addition to its other functions, it would be nice if I were at least given the option to make the numbers on the screen larger and easier to read.

On the other hand, information I didn’t expect to be interested in, such as my pace, has already become more important to me than my heartrate, so perhaps I eventually won’t mind the tiny heartrate numbers.

Pace, as other reviews have mentioned, can vary quite a bit during the course of a run. I tend to notice a difference of about a minute-per-mile, even if I think I’m carefully running at a consistent pace. (As a beginner, I’m not completely sure I’m being consistent, even when I think I am). That doesn’t really bother me at this point, I figure that as long as it’s reasonably accurate, it keeps me from running too quickly or too slowly on my training runs.

Teenager Holden Caulfield has just been expelled from yet another prep school for failing his classes and having a really bad attitude. Here he recounts his adventures and observations during a weekend on his own in New York City.

I remember being quite shocked at Holden’s anti-social thoughts and non-stop profanity and not liking him at all when I first read this book. It was a pleasure to reread it forty years later and find that my feelings for him had changed a lot; now I find him a bright, charming, and pitiable combination of the social misfit from “Napoleon Dynamite,” the angry young man from “Rebel Without a Cause,” and a bit of Eddie Haskell, too. His penchant for vulgarity and manic emotionality remind me of a scared puppy who’s all bark and no bite; he’s in desperate need of attention and affection and luckily, he gets it.

This classic character study of a troubled boy is highly recommended for mature readers.
