JVC is great at delivering light weight camcorders that pack a punch and the Everio is no exception to that rule. It’s compact, lightweight and easy to use. Almost sounds too good to be true, doesn’t it?

Remember those big bulky heavy camcorders we used to think were fabulous? Yeah right. Good luck shooting anything with a big heavy camcorder for more than 10 minutes at a time. It’s just difficult. But, you still want a great, bold, quality picture! Well this beautiful lightweight HDD/micro SD Hybrid camcorder comes with a Konica Minolta Lens, 35x optical zoom, easy to navigate Laser Touch Operation and 30GB HDD for up to 37.5 hours of recording. It might be small in size, but it gets the job done!

Everio has been redesigned to offer more satisfaction in a smaller, lighter body. It’s the world’s smallest and lightest hard disk camcorder, so you can shoot actively without fatigue, and travel with lots of space left over when you pack your bags.

Now that you know how well it gets the job done, let’s talk about how great it looks! It comes in silver, blue, black, and even pink. It’s definitely the cutest camcorder I’ve ever seen. Cute,compact, and very functional. What a great combination!

Homedics makes some of my favorite gizmos and gadgets. The SelectSPA Complete Therapy System for Hands & Feet is just another wonderful solution from Homedics to add to that favorite list. A Manicure & Pedicure System and Paraffin Bath are included to provide all the tools needed for a complete manicure and pedicure. Buying all these tools separately at a spa could cost you a small fortune. Homedics makes them affordable for everyday use to keep your hands and feet looking great all summer.

Using the parrafin bath will not only get your skin smoother than ever, it also soothes your overworked muscles, and improves your circulation. It might take a little while to melt the wax, but it’s worth the wait. Your friends are going to think you’ve been spending your weekends at the nail salon, when you’ve got this little secret at home.

Having a laptop can be great for both personal use and work use. I know I get more done from my laptop than I ever did from my desktop. The ability to just pick it up and go wherever I need to be has been fantastic.

If I want to try a new recipe I found online, I can put the laptop on the kitchen counter. The kids want to go to the park? No problem, I can take my laptop with me and still get my work done for the day. It truly has given me the ability to work from wherever I want as long as there is an internet connection I’m all set.

One of the quirks of being a laptop owner is that if you are using it a lot, like I do, then it tends to get a little toasty. My husband jokes in the winter that I have my own personal heater in the evenings when I’m working because the laptop can get quite warm. The last thing you want to do is have an overheated laptop. Using a chill mat can prevent costly damage to your laptop and keep it running smoothly for you.

You’ wake up in style with the unique alarm clock and iPod station. And if you don’t have an iPod or MP3 player don’t worry, the Harman Kardon Alarm Clock with iPod Docking Station also features a stereo mini input jack, allowing you to connect an external CD player or other audio device.

You can choose to wake up to a boring old buzzer, or you can choose a song from your iPod as your wake up in the morning. Again, no need to worry if you haven’t got an iPod you can wake up to the radio instead of the buzzer as well. Additional features of the great morning starter include a large clock display so even the most tired eyes can see the numbers and the ability to program your favorite radio stations so you can listen at the touch of a button.

Yesterday we talked about taking pictures under water. And if you’ve got your own swimming pool this is about the time of year you probably start thinking about opening it up and enjoying afternoons in the refreshing water. Heating your pool can be a frustrating experience.

These handy little sun rings have more advantages than just a nice warm pool. Because water and pool chemicals cannot evaporate through the layers of heavy weight vinyl you not only make great use of the sun’s energy, you conserve water and save money on treatment chemicals. And they look a lot better than your average pool cover.

When summer is over and the pool is empty your Sun Rings can be stacked for easy storage, taking up way less room than a typical pool cover. Just be careful not to stack them in direct sunlight!

How they work:At night the contained air acts as an insulating blanket to retain heat gained during daylight.Solar Sun Rings are equipped with six magnets to improve clarity and decrease hardness of the water in your pool. The magnets are positioned to facilitate rafting. The strength of the magnets will permit single position removal but will easily separate to prevent entrapment in accidental falls.

Your pool requires some direct sunlight and open water to stay healthy. The open water around the raft of Solar Sun Rings and the triangle caused by the convergence of three Solar Sun Rings is by design. These open areas allow your pool to receive some direct sunlight. This sunlight will greatly reduce the incidence of mustard algae.

Tomorrow we’ll return to our regularly scheduled and more standard gadget style. In the meantime, enjoy a swim.

It’s that time of year for summer vacations, days at the beach, and trips to the swimming pool.
