A Look Back at 2009 - Highlights on My Fav Products - Edgestar Dishwasher

I've had my Edgestar Dishwasher (countertop) for nearly a year and it's still going strong. I absolutely love this machine and I'm not the only one who feels this way about a mere machine. It has saved me so much time while getting the dishes sanitized clean.

Here are a few reviews I agree with:

This Dishwasher Changed My Life

"All in all, I love this dishwasher more than I ever thought I could love a kitchen appliance. It works brilliantly and has made such a difference in my life. I cook more, my husband and I never argue about the dishwashing chores, and I don't have to move to a new house!"

Best Gift I Could Have Gotten

"I LOVE my dishwasher. It has been positively life changing. I HATE doing dishes and so I admittedly waited till the sink was FULL of dishes before I rolled up my sleeves to wash dishes. It was easy to install. I use the sink adaptor. I DID have to go to ace hardware to get a fitting (an inch thick) and some plumbing tape to make it work. But that was 5 bucks and took me 30 mins. You might need someone who is st..."

A Dream

"Having a busy schedule makes it difficult to hand wash dishes and pots. In addition, living in an apartment building where a full capacity dishwasher is out of the question makes it all the more harder for us busy city folks to maintain a clean kitchen. However... this dishwasher is a dream come true. It is quite powerful, not only cleaning dishes but pots and pans as well. I'm truly satisfied with this product and would highly recommend it to those of us who desire convenience without sacrifice!!!"

A Look Back at 2009 - Highlights on My Fav Products - Ecoloblue28

Earlier this year I purchased an Ecoloblue 28 water generator. This miraculous machine extracts moisture from the humidity in the air turning it into pure drinking water. I've been very pleased with the quality of water especially.

Though at times it's slightly a pain having to deal with the manual to learn how to conduct a simple 20 minute monthly maintenance regimen, and was even more annoying having to set the thing up it was well worth it. I've got pure drinking water and as long as I have access to electricity, there won't be any problem having access to water during droughts.

The filters are inexpensive and you can buy them in bulk specials offered by Ecoloblue. The filters need only be changed once each six months and their membrane filter is replaced once every two years. Their ultraviolet light is also replaced every two years. Disclaimer: Don't take my word for it however, make sure you either read the instructions or call an Ecoloblue tech specialist should you purchase the machine.

Ecoloblue ocassionally offers specials and recently offered a dropped price from $1,200 to $999. Sometimes their specials include a one year supply of filters.

A Look Back at 2009 - Highlights on My Fav Products

By far the greatest value I found in a product this year is Five Star Soaps by Cal Ben Soaps. Cal Ben soap is pure and they've been in business since 1947. Early this year I purchased their $150 bulk soap (pictured) package that included enough soap products to last me several years.

Their laundry detergent is highly concentrated and does a great job. Their hand soaps are high lather, with a mild almond oil scent I just love. Their shampoos are wonderful and high lather as well. These are chemical free, pure soaps at 85% off vs. the store bought soap products. They provide a load of dish liquids as well. If you went out today and tried to purchase all these products at the store, it would cost hundreds of dollars easy!

Purchasing the Five Star Soaps' $150 bulk soap package is the best value you will ever find. Their dishwasher soap isn't as cheap as the rest, but still is a great value. Cal Ben also sends out a very inexpensive sampler to sample their products - for just $20 that includes:

One month supply tote pkg. Only $20.00
Four Samples includes the following
4-Bars Complexion Beauty "Pure Soap"
16 oz. "Five Star" Shampoo
16 oz. Dish Glow
18 oz. "Seafoam" Laundry Powder

This Cal Ben Super Star '1200' Soap Collection will last several years. I'm convinced their laundry detergent will last me at least the next 5 years because it just takes a small scoop to clean a load of wash.





This is really a great value every family should consider buying direct from Cal Ben.

What Ever Happaned to . . . .

I've been researching on what some of my former Palos Verdes High School alumni from 1978 are up to 31 years after graduating. As I looked around a bit, I wanted to present a few results. But first, I happened to catch someone on one of the forums as recently as 4/2009 asking what ever happened to me along with a few others from an orchestra class and it gave me the shivers.

In the the interim, Perry La Marca, the PVHS infamous pianist who we all thought was destined for greatness one day has done quite well and still is seasoning himself as a film composer. He's following in the footsteps of composer John Williams a former teacher and mentor. One of his latest films is THE MORGUE now out on DVD. I'll have to catch that one for sure.

Perry and I worked on a couple music projects after high school but he was far above me in musical development and left me in the dust so to speak. Looking back, I should have never gone the path of music and could have saved myself a lot of time and heartache. I should have been a nurse in my opinion. Back then it wasn't cool to be a nurse though.

Okay, next up. I'll save that for another post.

I Don't Know What I'm Doing Here Your Honor

A certain defendant in pro per came to a Case Management Conference last Friday and made a complete fool of himself. He uttered such ridiculous things as "I don't know what I'm doing here your Honor" as if he was transported from the holodeck of a star ship of delusional insanity to a court room based in REALITY. Yet, the court room was REAL and so was the judge.

The judge, obviously aghast, responded it was the inappropriate hearing to request a dismissal and proceeded to set a date for a REAL TRIAL to determine the innocence or guilt of the defendant.

Fraud Al Gore Sued by 30,000 Scientists

As previously stated in a former blog post, I believe Al Gore needs to be placed under serious analysis for his mid life crisis since his former loss to President Bush. The man's become a nightmare to the world disguised in philanthropy for environmentalism. The latest news is that 30,000 scientists have sued Al Gore for promoting his scientific fraud to promote his various companies' billion dollar profitability.

Now, 30,000 scientists, including the founder of The Weather Channel, have come forward to sue Al Gore for fraud. Al Gore has made massive profits in the promotion of the global warming mythology, and he played a key role in getting the 'Cap and Trade' legislation passed. Perhaps this lawsuit will finally give the thousands of 'dissenting' scientists a voice again.

The Founder of the Weather Channel is leading the way of the lawsuit. He's interviewed in this video:

Laser Pointers Have Certainly Evolved

Along with my colloidal silver generator I received my very first laser pen. I was testing the laser pen to see how far I could cast the dot outside my window to realize how truly powerful, and even dangerous, these things really are. When I realized I could see a dot on a very far away building I absolutely freaked. I could virtually land the dot on anything I pointed to, near and far. And this was even through a window where part of the light was refracted!

I realized there MUST BE LAWS to deal with the potential dangers and violations of others with these laser pens so I looked it up on the Internet. Low and behold, there were serious sentences for people who have done such dumb things as attempt to disable an airline pilot's sight by flashing one into the sky.

I read up more on these pens to learn some of the more powerful ones can point out objects with their beams into the universe. I really don't understand why we don't hear about people being rescued from boats based on flashing their lasers into the night sky. If they could figure out a way for SOS to be conveyed, I think these laser pens or laser flashlights could be used for rescuing people lost at sea or the wilderness.

Green lasers are the most powerful of all beams I understand. The top beam travel is 100 miles.

Grapefruit Seed Extract Really Works

I know I posted a while back about getting a colloidal silver generator, but it turns out I returned it for a refund. Not only was it expensive, but defective as well. I'll give you one chance to correct the problem, maybe even two but don't expect me to go in and repair your expensive device myself. They apologized and sent me something free to make up for the inconvenience so I won't be naming them on this blog.

In finding another solution, I was since told there's a far cheaper way to deal with my recurring bronchitis issue. Since I've been taking a liquid form of the Grapefruit Seed Extract, I've been feeling much better and noted a distinct improvement in my health. I've been taking 8-10 drops three times a day in my fruit drinks and I really have been feeling back to normal.

At one time I would have thought a small bottle of this stuff at $16.00 expensive. After paying $450 for a colloidal silver generator, it suddenly seems dirt cheap. Sure, I wanted to trip on breathing in silver particles using a cool portable nebulizer but it doesn't seem it was meant to be.

Oh, and the climb of GLD on the stock market has me feeling like I missed the boat because I was about to put all my money into it before I "forgot" on a Sunday night before it began its steep climb. Since it's gone up every day practically to about $15 a share, I've been feeling really horrible about missing that opportunity because I would have made thousands of dollars in a matter of a few weeks.

Even after GLD stock started catapulting I decided not to go in even at that point because my experience is it can fall just as fast as it rises. The second I'd invest my money it would drop another $7 a share or something like it did last time. I just can't afford to be gambling right now. But I sure wish I would have done so at the perfect time. I'll probably look back the rest of my life and realize I missed a huge opportunity. I tend to do that a lot.
