So Much Fun To Create With, And Easy To Use.!
on November 15, 2022
Posted by: PapawJeff
While Photoshop Elements is not the same as Photoshop as Elements is said to be designed for beginners and non professionals, Its loaded with features I think even professionals can use and love.
It has the same great features of previous versions of Photoshop Elements for great general use and photo editing and enhancement as well as some really cool new features, at least new to Photoshop Elements, but you may have experienced some of them on your phone.
Adding motion to areas of a photo and converting it to a GIF or MP4 is a nice function when sharing photos online with a little dazzle and pizazz! Make that stream flow or a waterfall move and delight those you share them with.
Various overlay frames can be used to create depth to you images and you can even blur what is desired or use a vignette feature along with it.
Many new templates, backgrounds, collage and slideshow features add even more creativity for your photograph projects.
It is very user friendly and you will grasp the basics very easily and the rest will come along to you with practice and experimentation.
Have fun and create away with Adobe Photoshop Elements.

Not my favorite but it is a good case.

If you are the kind of person that likes to keep your phone in as good of shape as possible and likes to add a bit of flash and unusual design (for s cell phone case) this Insignia Hard-Shell case for iPhone 14 Pro Max may be exactly what you were looking for
It like any other case Insignia makes is a perfect fit for the hone it is designed and sold for.
All buttons, switches, the camera port, everything is as perfect as it could be.
We already had a glass screen protector installed on the phone and this case worked perfectly and did not conflict in any way with it
It says it is magnetic charging compatable but I could not get the magsafe puck to give its tone or graphic indicating it was charging.
The battery icon did change to the green color like it does when the MagSafe puck is placed on the phones back, so I guess it was getting power and would have eventually charged but not in true MagSafe fashion.
We also tried to use a few MagSafe accesories including the vey popular and helpful PopSocket but its magnatic contact was not secure enough to rely on them at all.
But if you are not doing magsafe charging and are good with charging it thru the pightning port and a cable like was done for many years, it will be fine

So Simple and Protective Yet Classy
on November 6, 2022
Posted by: PapawJeff
Nice and simple, yet protective case. Both my wife and myself are case people and screen protecter users.
Our phones look like new when we upgrade and bring top dollar on resale.
This case gives a good deal of grippy surface and any grippy surface at all is a big bonus when using the iphone as it on its own is beautiful but vey slick to hold or even lay down in some places.
All side button, side switch and bottom charging port and speakers as well as the camera cutouts are an absolute perfect fit.
This Insignia case is already outfitted as a MagSafe case and works well with the MagSafe charging method and works equally great with other MagSafe accesories such as the Popsocket and other back finger loops etcetera.
The case is also an easy on easy off case and the glass screen protector I had already installed was not disturbed at all in either putting on or removing the case when swapping it out with another case.
The liquid silicone type of case has long been one of my favorite cases and the Insignia brand has always made some of the better cases I have owned.

I love the iOttie Brand
on October 3, 2022
Posted by: PapawJeff
Its a nice product but its just 7.5 Watts so dont expect a full MagSafe fast charge like when its hooked up to a full 20watt MagSafe Disk.
This will be good for keeping the battery at or near a full charge for sure and will charge the phone for sure just not real fast.
It is very sturdy and seems to be made of high quality materials as iOttie products have always been.
This is not my first iOttie suction mount phone accessory so at least for now I opted to not use the included disk to mount the camera to the dash. (A DC outlet plug, ASA cigarette lighter charger plug is also included)
For the time being as I try this one out I placed it directly on my dash right beside my iOttie dash mount phone holder. I will run it a while there and try it in a few other places in my car and then determine its final home in my car or in my wife's car.
It is easy to adjust and holds my iPhone 14 Pro Max in place while driving.
The magnetism it provides seems to be working for me just as if it were a genuine Apple MagSafe product. .
But with all MagSafe accessories, it only sticks so good and may come loose if you hit a huge bump in the road or something like that.
That may vary from case to case as the cases thickness could affect that magnetic adhesion,
But with that being said, I find this dash mount charger/mount to be a good little charger to have around for your travels.

The Most Versatile Coffee Machine Ever. !
on September 27, 2022
Posted by: PapawJeff
Coffee...A must have for me to start the day.
Not for a boost from the caffeine as I am one of the folks that it has little effect on, but for the pure enjoyment of the coffee itself.
And its got to be good and fresh for me to enjoy it.
This machine from Ninja is super easy to use and make that perfect single cup, full pot or anything in between.!
The included measuring scoop and the water adjustment dial have coffee pot icons on them that correspond to one another with suggestion ratios for what you have decided to make on the coffee bean side of it and the similar icons on the side that uses Nespresso Original Only Espresso Capsules.
Of course those ratios for a perfect cup will vary from one person to another so start with the suggestions and personalize it from there to get that perfect cup for you.
On the coffee side, it used #4 cone shaped filters available nearly everywhere (only 4 are included) or the same size #4 reusable mesh filter. (reusable filter not included)
But I have used both of the above mentioned filters with excellent results for either of them.
Now on the espresso capsule side it gives you the option of 4 sizes of espresso and similar from the Nespresso Original Capsules for use in many coffee/espresso specialty drinks or to add a shot to that first morning cup if caffeine gives you that get up and go as it does for many.
Used espresso capsules drop into their own collection vault for disposal later.
Ninjas fold out frother operates at the touch of a button on its top and works very well for froth or even stirring your add ins to the coffee or espresso.
Its carafe, carafe top filter holder, frother and capsule collection vault are all dishwasher safe, with top rack recommendations for several of them.
It has a delay timer to set the machine to make your coffee at a later time, like when you wake up.
I could go on but you really just need to go get one of these for your kitchen and see for yourself how awesome it is.

Just A Little Larger Than Most Lower Power Cubes
on September 16, 2022
Posted by: PapawJeff
New technology and standards many times require new accessories.
I find this Insignia 20 Watt USB C Fast Charger to be an ideal charging cube to include in those accessories.
Its great for home use as well as easy to pack away for travel without ending the tines of the plug as they fold up into the cube.
The iPhones as well as many other devices have moved to USB C connection at the cube end.
The iPhone continues to use the lightning connection to the phone itself.
Apple does not provide a power cube with the new 14 series of iPhones and if your cellular provider does not provide one for you, it will be up to you to purchase at least one of these power cubes.
Of course, with the proper adapter standard USB cords can be used with this 20 watt cube by Insignia.
The adapter I speak of is NOT included with this power cube but are readily available and not that expensive at all.
The cube itself feels like it is very well constructed and should last a very long time.
My past experiences with purchases of Insignia products give me a great deal of confidence in this power cube.

The Shark Stratos Corded stick has the most powerful suction and best hair pick up of any Shark. It features Shark’s most advanced cleaning technology. The DuoClean PowerFins Hair Pro nozzle grips and captures more dirt, debris and hair, and Odor Neutralizer Technology guards against bad odors inside your vacuum. Plus, Anti-Allergen Complete Seal with HEPA filtration traps fine particles as you clean.

It Is Corded.....But It Is Awesome
on August 31, 2022
Posted by: PapawJeff
If you are looking for a nice lightweight stick vac and you really don't have to have or desire a battery/rechargeable model I really think you should consider this Shark Stratos.
It has great suction and pickup power no matter is being used as an upright or taken down and used like a corded hand vac.
Dirt, dust, small debris and pet hair are easily picked up and stowed away in the bin until you are ready to empty it, or until it is full of course.
And its 18 foot cord give you plenty of reach and mobility before changing outlets as you clean throughout your home.
Like all stick vacuums, the Shark Stratos is top heavy and it really does not securely stand up on its own when not in use, but Shark found a way around that.
Its cleaning head with the motor in it can be removed with the push of a button and stored on the hook provided near its cleaning head near the bottom of the suction tube.
It then stands easily on its own to stow it away until its needed again.
There is also easy storage of the cord on the back of the suction tube.
Ant vacuum odors being exhausted back into the room are filtered through a scent cartridge that is easily replaceable and has a nice fresh clean scent.
This vacuum is louder than any battery powered stick vac we have had but it also is more powerful, so I am good with that tradeoff.
The bin is easy to remove and empty and just as easy to clean when needed

Long Lasting Battery In A Great Sounding Speaker
on July 19, 2022
Posted by: PapawJeff
The XE200 Wireless Bluetooth Speaker By Sony is a very compact little sound powerhouse.
It can provide up to 16 hours of audio entertainment when paired to your android or iPhone.
Like some other speakers it can be daisy chained to other compatible speakers to play music through all of them in complete synchronization to provide a genuine party like environment for you and your friends at nearly any type of gathering.
The XE200 has a Line-Shape Diffuser speaker system that will pump out music to a full 180 degrees giving full sound even to the sides of the speaker, not just to listeners directly in front of the speaker or speakers as the case may be.
And its dual passive radiators at the ends of the speaker add a degree of depth to the bass reproduction you can feel in your bones.!
It is very lightweight and easy to take along nearly anywhere.!
Don't worry about if you should pack it along on camping trips, hiking expeditions or a day by water.
Its IP67 waterproof, dustproof and shockproof design gives it the versatility of coming along on nearly any adventure you have planned.
I do wish it had the ability to be used to charge other devices when out and about like some others but it doesn't do that.

Super Clean Floors In Half The Time!
on June 8, 2022
Posted by: PapawJeff
The Tineco = Floor One S3 Extreme Wet/Dry Hard Floor Cordless Vacuum impressed us both on its very first use.
The assembly amounts to snapping the handle into place and putting the clean water tank into place. and that's it!
The loop on the handle points forward and where you put it in the machine has a matching groove for the little protrusion on the handle bottom front side so you can't put it on wrong.
Plug it in to charge up, add one capful of the enclosed Tineco cleaning/disinfecting solution and go read the book while it charges.
It talks to you! Letting you know what its doing or that you need to do to it and its display ring turns from red to blue as to let you know the area that you are cleaning is clean.
The voice assist can be turned off if not desired at the time or not desired at all.
It's really lightweight and relatively quiet and on normal dirt and dust days it is even self - cleaning.!
Just put it back in the charging base and hit the self - cleaning button and it cleans the roller for you. Of course you still have to dump and clean the dirty water tank and filter yourself.
And speaking of dirty water we were very surprised at exactly how dirty the water was.
I dry mop daily and wet mop when it needs it or at least every other week but the Tineco picked up so much more than that method.
It left us with very clean, mopped and vacuumed and shiny vinal and sealed hardwood floors in the time it takes to vacuum only otherwise.
Now after a big mess such as spaghetti'o's or something you may have to manually clean the tank and roller but that is an easy task as well.
Personally we will generally clean up major messes with paper towels before attempting to use this or anything else before we had this.
It can also be used in suction mode only where needed or required.
It leaves us with beautifully clean floors and I am very glad to have it
Two spare rollers and a spare filter were pack away in the box so be sure and check every piece of cardboard before throwing anything away.

Impressive Do It All Device!
on May 19, 2022
Posted by: PapawJeff
I just received and finished setting up the new Asus - Zenbook Flip 2 - In - 1 15.6" Touch Screen Laptop.
The setup is pretty easy and routine as with most computers manufactured today.
Asus has managed to combine a lot of todays desired features in one convenient device.
It can be used as a non touch screen or a touch screen laptop or pretty much like a big tablet.
The color super clear screen resolution is really great when viewing and editing some photographs from my wife's photo art hobby.
It also gave a very pleasurable experience streaming a movie online.
The sound is very sharp and clear from such small speakers, but then again why should I expect anything else. The speakers are Harmon/Kardon.
Pandora sounded really good again for such small speakers.
I love the fact that the keyboard is lighted, has a number pad on the right that I really missed on my last laptop and the letters and numbers on the keyboard are a bit larger than on previous laptops I have owned.
The touch screen functions flawlessly with your finger or a stylus.
It is a nice thin and light laptop that will cover just about any function you throw at it.

The setup is pretty easy and routine as with most computers manufactured today.
Asus has managed to combine a lot of todays desired features in one convenient device.
It can be used as a non touch screen or a touch screen laptop or pretty much like a big tablet.
The color super clear screen resolution is really great when viewing and editing some photographs from my wife's photo art hobby.
It also gave a very pleasurable experience streaming a movie online.
The sound is very sharp and clear from such small speakers, but then again why should I expect anything else. The speakers are Harmon/Kardon.
Pandora sounded really good again for such small speakers.
I love the fact that the keyboard is lighted, has a number pad on the right that I really missed on my last laptop and the letters and numbers on the keyboard are a bit larger than on previous laptops I have owned.
The touch screen functions flawlessly with your finger or a stylus.
It is a nice thin and light laptop that will cover just about any function you throw at it.
Even high demand functions such as gaming and photo editing are handled with relative ease with its 16GB of ram and 1TB Solid State Drive.

Protection meets style in this unique and highly functional case for most laptops with up to a 17" widescreen display.

Really great case,Except... the strap to secure the laptop is useless unkess your laptop is 6" thick. there is no adjustment. Laptop slides all over. It goes back to store today.

The all-new thinner and lighter design makes iPad 2 even more comfortable to hold. It's even more powerful with the dual-core A5 chip, yet has the same 10 hours of battery life.1 With two cameras, you can make FaceTime video calls,2 record HD video and put a twist on your snapshots in Photo Booth. And the iPad Smart Cover attaches magnetically and wakes up, stands up and brightens up your iPad 2.3

Experience pristine audio when watching programming with the Bose Solo 5 TV Soundbar. The dialogue mode lets you hear each spoken word with clarity without having to adjust the volume. Place the sleek Bose Solo 5 TV soundbar anywhere in the home, and connect wirelessly with Bluetooth for audio listening.

We love our big screen HD Smart TV mounted on the wall but have never been happy with all the sound blasting out of the back of the TV.
It would bounce off the wall and deafen anyone in the kitchen, but where my wife would sit in the living room she couldn't hear the voices unless it was sky high, and it would blast me out of the room.
If your looking for a theater surround sound, look further.
But if your looking for a very high quality compact soundbar with excellent sound at a very reasonable price I highly recommend the Bose Solo 5.

Sound was cutting out, but found the problem
November 6, 2016
Sound would frequently cut out completely for a second or two. I mean 20 time or so in a one hour show.
The issue was an audio output setting on my Vizio TV.
It had been set to bitstream.
I did a little online research and switched that output to PCM and the issue is history.
No more cutting out.

Add stability to your home network with the Amped Wireless HELIOS-EX Wi-Fi Extender. With DirectLink technology, it avoids signal loss by adding another 5GHz Wi-Fi channel to the standard setup, which it then uses strictly for receiving signal from the source. This Amped Wireless HELIOS-EX Wi-Fi Extender covers an area of up to 12,000 sq. ft. and includes four Gigabit network ports.

I have never had a repeater/expander work as well as this one.
It sets up a 5ghz band dedicated to communication with your current router and then sends out its own 5ghz and a 2.4 ghz band of its own.
Its three antennas and 12 repeaters ensure its putting out an equally as good signal as the router is. It looks like an antenna router itself and expands the coverage of your wifi to a potential 12,000 foot area that for most will include at least the immediate area outside. (Yard, porches and driveway).
Of course exact coverage limits will be more restricted by obstructions than this repeater or your router.

And Setup Was Super Easy And Quick. :)
May 6, 2017
I did the setup from my iPhone following the instructions provided and the on screen prompts.
From the time I went to the link in the instructions with my iphone until I had the repeater online and broadcasting was only 5 minutes or so.
Never have I been able to put anything on a wifi network and have it up and running so quickly and easily.

Everything about these screams quality and perfection.
From the quality machined metal parts to the premium cowhide headband and lambskin ear pieces to the cloth covered cords and canvas cases, the look and feel of quality is in every component.
There is also a round leather covered box to keep the cables in if you desire.
Even the box they come in is classy and very durable.
As for the sound, Everything from Classical Symphony to AC/DC with a stop in the country genre is what I used to put these thru the paces and they didn't fail me anywhere.
Every note in every range of all the music was crisp and clear as well as excellent quality on all vocalization.
No disruption or breakup of the bluetooth signal even when I walked into two adjacent rooms and the signal had to go through two walls, the sounds remained impeckable.
I have claimed these at my house for me at our house and I'll be very selective of letting anyone who is not old enough to appreciate such a fine article near them.
We also have a pair of Bose Noise Canceling Headphones and in the respect of noise cancellation, the Master and Dynamic set equal or exceed the Bose.
These are a pricy selection, but it will be money well spent if you appreciate music and want to own a set of headphones you will be proud to own and show off.

My Error, These Are Not Noise Cancelling

I should have said "While these are not noise cancelling, they are equal to my Bose Noise Cancelling headphones in sound isolation."

It had me at Pulled Pork :)
I did a 2.5 pound pork roast and followed the recipe for root beer pulled pork for an electric pressure/multi cooker and it turned out great, and was ready to eat in 45 minutes.
We did add a little bottled BBQ sauce to the sandwiches as we made them to get them to that just the way we like em point ;)
The meat was fully cooked, tender and separated easily with two dinner forks.
Clean up was super easy as it was all done in the stainless steel inner pot.
We bought the Instant Pot IP-DUO60 which is a 7-in-1 programmable cooker that is supposed to speed up cooking by 2~6 times and use up to 70% less energy. The inner stainless steel cooking pot is made very well with a super heavy duty metal. The entire unit feels like its components are equally well made.
It's really easy to use and has 10 safety features making it less frightening to the beginner using a pressure cooker.
Since it is also a steamer,canner, you can saute in it, a yogurt maker, rice cooker and warmer, I wouldn't say I will use it every evening but I can see me using it a lot.
I was hesitant to buy one, seeing it as another kitchen appliance gadget that I would end up sitting on a shelf in the basement, but after just using it once I can pretty much say that is not likely to happen :)

The Nest Doorbell is the battery-powered video doorbell that works with any home. See what’s happening at your door from anywhere and get intelligent alerts about important activity, like when there’s a person, package, animal, or vehicle.* And because there are no wires, you can install it yourself. Nest Doorbell requires the Google Home app and a Google Account – it’s not compatible with the Nest app or the home.nest.com site.
How long will it last on battery power alone?
Like any battery device that depends on its frequency of use as well as temperature. Batteries tend to not last as long when its very cold outside.
Typically around a month for average use is a statement in the literature however it says you may see a longer or shorter time between charges based on you use.
We wired this one to an old transformer powered mechanical doorbell in the house so it has constant power.
But another brand we had that was battery only lasted about 4-5 months between charges due to low use.

Listen to your favorite albums and audiobooks on the go with this Memorex portable CD player. The 40-second anti-skip protection function for CDs ensures smooth, uninterrupted listening, while the dynamic bass boost system delivers rich sound. This Bluetooth Memorex portable CD player features an LCD screen and digital control buttons for conveniently choosing tracks and adjusting volume.
Would this fit in my pocket?
Its about 3/4 "larger in circumference than a CD . So I guess that would depend on the size of your pocket as to will it fit.
However it better be a loose pocket if it does fit as the buttons to control the device are on its top and slide to open on its side

Are these comfortable for people that need smaller in ear buds?
I dont have what you would call large ears and I find them very comfortable. Check out a picture of them online while being worn.
They do fill up a large part of the outer ear, but what goes back in the ear canal comes with two sizes of tips and are very soft and comfortable to me.
