A few days ago while surfing the web I found one site where pedometers (a device for counting steps, miles, meters, time, etc) were discussed, mainly All-In Fitness Pedometer in iPhones and iPods. I understood the principle of its work but what I was interested in was the history of this invention.
Originally the pedometer was invented by Thomas Jefferson (the author of the Declaration of Independence) about two centuries ago. He took the device from France and made some improvements to the design.
Of course, during the course of time the technology has changed but the main functions have remained similar. A special sensor is responsible for counting the number of steps by counting the number of your body shakes.
Now you can combine trainings with listening to your favorite music as iPhone can perform the function of an MP3 player.And if you don't want to invest you money in pedometer business you can just order you #1 pedometer for iPhone directly from Apple Store.

Summer fashion = Forever Fashion
Summer is not only warm and sunny weather, it's also an opportunity to wear less. And economists can easily calculate that if you need to wear less clothing (thanks to higher temperature) - you can buy a bit more expensive clothing!
It's good to know that summer is also a period of bigger discounts. It allows to save money twice. First time by buying less clothing, and second time by buying clothing for less.
So, if you understand all the benefits - you can easily go to my favorite online store of designer clothes and choose some thing from the latest designer clothes summer collection, already discounted.

Condo Sales Increase because the Prices Decline
Miami Beach area offers top-range condo which attract people from all over the world and who want to purchase some property there. Now it’s the best time for buyers as the prices decline because of the crisis. Too many condos are on sale and many of them are sold, but still there are numerous condos which are just being looked at without buying. But those who choose to buy some property in the area make good investment and are likely to win in the future. Now they pay twice less than it used to be for the same condos. The condos that haven’t been sold are quite large and people who prefer to buy with cash, they don’t have enough money to pay. In spite of all the positive moments, the real estate market is still troubled. Some specialists say that only those people who intend to live in the condo usually buy them, and they look for top quality condos with all the amenities. Brokers say that Miami Beach homes attract people because of the night life and the ocean. They claim as well the mostly investors have recently bought the condo in the area. And the percentage of renters is very high. Many of the experts prove that the increase in sales will not lead to high prices.

Construction industry news in Las Vegas
It’s a well-known fact that the construction branch has decreased its scale size recent years because of the crisis. But still you can observe that a new project is started every month in spite of the national economy slump, plummet in tourism and numerous foreclosures.
Builders are not eager to start new projects in North Las Vegas area. But if the construction is made it’s usually made environmentally friendly or green. This is done to make potential buyers interested and buy new green and healthy houses. But many such projects have been scaled down because of the crisis. Building companies say as the number of foreclosed houses is still great, the new property to build has no sense at all as it can’t compete in price with the houses on sale in Las Vegas.
Still there are some people who would choose rather a new house in North Las Vegas than a foreclosed house with a number of problems.

We are healthy, they say
According to some experts the number of house sales and house constructions has increased in Kentucky this year in comparison with the previous years. The growth in the state was higher than in the country. The Kentucky real estate market is continuing to surge and to overcome all the country’s tendencies.
As for prices the state prices have gone up by several per cents while in the country the prices fell. It’s a real miracle for the country where the situation is not easy and many people still hesitate before buying some property. The building branch is also witnessing the development period contributing a lot to the economy of the state creating jobs and proving taxes for the budget.
Such a positive tendency may stimulate people to buy houses more and more in particular.

Jacksonville mom is fond of selling houses
Many years ago Debbie Shagnea was told and she could become a very good realtor because of her charming and attractive personality. But nobody knew that she would succeed so much.
Up to 2009 Shagnea has sold hundreds of houses and has earned millions of dollars. She has become the top realtor of the country. Selling house has become her passion.
She is ready to work all day long to sell houses or to help FSBO sellers.
As she has been very busy working and that’s why she has delegated all the paper work to two firms. But she tried to spend enough time to every client. She says that very often people refer to her when they have already lost hope to find the house they really want.
She is devoted to work but she has some time off and to relax in the spa center. When people ask about her secret of success she says that there’s nothing new, but only hard work and the desire to help the customer. She quite a lot, but her expenses are very huge as she wastes money on the promotion and listings. But she is happy with her and she is ready to help people to find the house in any part of the country. It doesn’t matter where – Texas or California.

Car dvd player
I like traveling with my family but kids are so naughty sometimes that it’s a real problem how to make them sit still at least for some time. But my husband bought me an excellent present for New Year – a car dvd player with touch screen. That’s amazing! You can’t even imagine how everything has changed now!
This dvd player is super! It has a built–in TV and radio, RDS function, built-in GPS and FM transmitter, Bluetooth, USB slot, built-in Dolby decoder and stereo speakers. Most of all my kids liked the possibility to play games. Now the problem of entertaining kids is solved completely!
But I also like its stylish design and convenience – when it is closed, you’ll never guess where it is! It is the best present I’ve ever had! I would definitely recommend it to other moms.
