I bought a new PS3 and needed a hdmi cable to connect it to my HDTV.
I checked out online and the prices were $40-$140.
Then I came across this product which was selling for $0.95
I thought of giving it a shot, even if I thought it did not look dependable.
But, I must say, it works great. No problems at all.
Really loved it.

My FIRM 5 day Abs (from the early 90s?) video finally broke, so I decided to try something new.
The workouts are okay, but only a couple exercises really work your abs long enough for you to feel it. I think the problem is that they only do a couple reps of each exercise.
I’m still looking for a DVD that has 3-5 days of ab workouts that are challenging… I may just buy the FIRM again.

Much, much, much better than slicker brushes. I can’t even describe how much better it is. Highly recommend it.

Really good easy to use. Best peice of tech I have bought for a long time. Saves carrying lots of books around. The book is dead long live the Kindle. I would recommend this to anyone. The fact that you can try a sample of a book before buying it is great. I am a big fan of it. It does what it says on the tin and more beside. If you are only going to buy one peice of tech then buy this.

I remember the day in American History when I learned what American settlers did to the Native Americans, the sick I felt in my stomach. I remember the day that an 8th-grade Beth, Danica, and Linden recorded a documentary / play about Dachau for the History Day competition, how it really hit me what the Nazis did to the Jews, the homosexuals, the gypsies, the list goes on.
But understanding slavery, the Antebellum South, black struggles in the 20th century, civil rights 60s, even the racism still strong in my lifetime, it did not happen in a flash like those other times. We still sugar coat it. But white people have pretended for years that we were better than black people because of our skin color. That one obvious difference made our ancestors feel like black people were not as smart, carried diseases, were not real humans. White people today still use that pigmentation as an excuse for prejudice.
This saddens me to the point of tears. If you choose to hate someone because their skin color is different from yours, you might as well hate someone who’s eye color is different from yours. The difference is about as significant.
All that to say that The Help is an excellent book. I felt the pain of the house help and hated the arrogant, simple-minded, racist white women. It’s honest, heart-breaking, and inspiring.

I’ve had mine for about three years now. When mom wanted to get a similar cleaner, I made sure she bought exactly this one. Whether the new ones are improved, I don’t know, what I do know is this one works.
I just went through an awful period of an aging dog who had to be put to sleep just last week. He was losing control of bladder and bowels and had a cancer growing in his lungs causing him to cough up some really awful stuff. I didn’t even always have time to use heated water. The Hoover was standing by all the time. Even with cold solution, the cleaning was amazing. If you saw the carpet now, you’d never have a clue I had a sick, dying dog spitting up and having “accidents” all over the place.
I think my only complaint is that the top, curved, plastic part where the fluid is sucked up out of the carpet tends to clog with carpet fibers, pet hair, the like (no matter how well you vacuum first). However, I discovered it’s held in place by only three screws that are easily removed and then easily cleaned.
I paid about twice what they cost now. Still worth every dime.

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.
Revelation 22:18-19 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this
Thomastik Vision 1 2
War is hell. More importantly, war is hell for those whose very lives are defined by it. The late George C. Scott brings Patton to life in a way that few actors could have. A West Point graduate who believed he was the reincarnation of Alexander The Great, Patton focuses on the character of the man and his obsessive rivalry with “Monty” his British counterpart. Patton comes across as a gunslinger in modern warfare believing that the code of conduct for a soldier in battle should be respected regardless of which side you’re on and, of course, his side should always be the winning side.
Francis Ford Coppola co-wrote the perceptive screenplay (and shared an Oscar for it)and the talented late director Franklin J. Schaffner (”Planet of the Apes”, “The Warlord”)fashioned his directorial masterpiece from the material he had at hand. Brilliantly filmed with sharp, powerful support performances (particularly from the talented Karl Malden), “Patton” remains one of the best films about an idividual involved in a massive war and what drove him to try and be the best.
The transfer by Fox looks vivid and sharp and, although this isn’t a high definition transfer, “Patton” looks really, really good even on higher resolution televisions. Unfortunately, the extras here are minimal particularly when compared to the marvelous two disc edition this single disc DVD was drawn from. The commentary is, at turns, dry and fascinating just like the subject himself. A pity that the two disc set is no longer available. If you can find it, it’s worth having.

I am amazed the step count is very accurate. In the begining I tried to throw it off, but it was within a few steps. I keep it in my front pocket and forget it’s there until I go to bed. Great product.
