I was never really interested in monitoring my heart with exercise.  I never really understood the necessity.  I must admit that I was not very smart when it came to exercise.  Since having MS and having to do all the exercise to keep myself functioning for the past 6 years, I have learned a bunch about exercise.I have, also, been told by my doctor that I need to monitor my heart...

I received a Omron heart rate Monitor Model HR-100C for my birthday. I allows me to exercise and know if I am in the ideal heart rate zone for the type of workout and my age. It has a wrist receiver which also serves as a watch and a transmitor which attaches to your chest. My brother had suggested I look into monitors because two concerns pushing yourself to hard in weight loss exercise or mor...

Get it? Watch what you're doing? Anyways, I got this Suunto Heart Rate monitor to keep track of my runs, and it has been a great experience.AccuracyIt seems pretty accurate, from my uses of it. I don't have another source to back up its findings about my heart rate or calories burned, but they seem reasonable. Once in a while the watch will lose my heart rate, but it's always back w...

I am a member of AAA.  The last magazine I received from them mentioned a company called Consumer Cellular.  AAA members were offered a discount to try out this company.  I was looking for a phone plan that I could pay monthly, but I didn't want to spend the minimum $40 that other providers offer.  It turns out Consumer Cellular starts plans out at $10 per month.  Y...

I have never read the book, Holes, but I hear it's good. I certainly can't say the same for Holes, the movie. I think the main actors did the best they could with this, but I found this movie to be incredibly stupid. I have enjoyed Louis Sachar's Wayside School book series, so I expected so much more from a movie based on one his books. The main character is...

What better way to keep watch of one's heart rate then to have it in a watch form. My husband suffers with high blood pressure and must participate in physical training and PT tests as he is serving in the USARMY. In order to put my mind at rest, I purchased this watch in order to monitor his heart rate during periods of exercise. This has been an excellent way to monitor his rates and prov...

My boys could not wait until this movie hit the bigscreen.  We actually went to see it on opening day in our area.  They loved it, especially the songs, so when the dvd hit the stores they must have asked me a million times if we could get it.  Although this story takes place during the Christmas season, the overall theme is not geared in that direction.  The movie is very u...

The Game Plan, starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is a must see for the entire family.  I have to say I was pleasantly surprised that this is one I wanted to watch a second time.  With the fact that it is a Walt Disney film, you know the family quality is definite.  My boys are great football fans and that was the first plus that this film had going for it.  It has...

Even before going to the US for our vacation, we already checked out the places of interest to visit in Hollywood. My daughter has always been curious of the amazing things and events around us so my aunt treated us to Ripley's Believe it or Not Odditorium in Hollywood, California.We were all fascinated with what we have seen inside the "odditorium." It is 2 storeys high filled wi...

This is so easy to set up, and use in the fors 20 minutes you open the package.It has a HUGE readout, yet the m...

One of my must haves while I am exercising is my heart rate monitor watch by Nike.  The monitor I have is the women's Nike Imara HRM.  It comes in a set which includes the watch and a chest strap.The watch can be worn alone if you just want to tell the time or set workout intervals.  When you want to know your heart rate and in turn calculate how many calories you've burn...

One watch and one heart rate monitor. The heart rate monitor sits snuggly against the skin below the breast and the watch, of course, on the wrist...

Note: This program requires iTunes and Mac OS XOne of the first things I found before getting a Mac was this piece of software. I found a review through a blog and immeditaly realized how useful this program would be. I always had a hard time figuring out how much I liked a song. What AutoRate does is it looks at how often you skip a song, how often you play it, and the overall play count. Usin...

When on vacation a nephew of mine broke my digital camera we went out and bought a new one. After looking through the store and finally deciding on a camera, the GE A730 looked promising. I started to take pictures and found out that it wasn't as good as other digital cameras I've had.I have an 8 month old infant and when I was taking pictures of him trying to crawl I noticed that the p...

I needed a computer because I decided to go back to school. When I first started looking for computers, price and quality were very big deciding factors. I decided to go to Wal-Mart, they have everything, to look for one. When I got back to the electronics department they had laptops and desktops. I knew I needed a desktop. So I started by looking at memory and speed. The W3629 has a 1GB hard d...

I have always been a Ford girl, of course my dad worked for Ford so that may be part of it, but a long last I decided to step out of the Ford Family and see what was out there. I have always wanted a convertible but could never afford the price tag let alone the insurance. I was on a quest to find that convertible and sad to say I didn't but I found the next best thing. I really love my Pon...

Erie doesn't advertise on television. That's why they're so inexpensive! They can save you the money rather than spending it on advertising. I think, first and foremost, this is an excellent display of customer service - even before you even talk to one of their representatives. When I first switched to Erie, I saved over $900 per year. When I cancelled at my old insurance company, ...

I never would have tried this type of product before because I have short lashes.It really works! Sky High Curves is awesome! It is not waterproof but it does take a lot to clean it off of your eyes. The mascara makes your eyelashes...
