A DIY Guide for Vacuum Cleaner Repair
It always seems that your vacuum will malfunction right before company is set to arrive. What do you do if your vacuum is not working correctly? Many people will simply throw away their vacuum and purchase a new one. However, did you know that it is quite easy to repair a vacuum cleaner?
You can find a lot of great information by checking out the website of the manufacturer who made your vacuum. For instance, if you have a Hoover vacuum, you can learn specifically about Hoover parts and how they work.
In order to repair the problem, you first need to determine what is wrong with your vacuum cleaner.
There are actually not a lot of vacuum parts which malfunction. The most common problem is a belt malfunction. To check out the vacuum cleaner belt, you will want to flip the vacuum on its front so that the brush is facing you. You will notice a small plate around the brush. Unscrew this. Check the belt. It is possible that it has snapped or has wrapped itself around a portion of the brush. If it is broken, you will want to take the belt with you to a store to purchase a new one. Many stores carry vacuum cleaner parts, including stores like Walmart and Target. You should be able to identify the proper size belt and many times a package will contain several size belts making it easier to insure you have the right one. Vacuum cleaner belts are not expensive at all.
You also will want to check the vacuum agitator brush. Sometimes it can become tangled with hair, pieces of carpet or string. You should use a pair of scissors to cut all of that out. Once it is clean, you can simply replace the belt and screw the plate back on the front.
If your vacuum is having poor suction, you might have something blocking one of the hoses. Remove the hoses one at a time, consulting your owner's manual if needed. If you have trouble reaching the blockage you can use the end of a mop or broomstick to push the obstruction through.
It also makes sense to do some routine maintenance on your vacuum. You will want to check the vacuum filter frequently to insure that it is not too dirty or blocked. The vacuum filter can affect the performanace of your machine. Also check the cord of your vacuum to make sure that it hasn't become frayed. Vacuum cords can often become damaged when they are run over by the vacuum.
Most of the problems you have with your vacuum will be related to either the agitator brush, the belt, or a blockage. You can save yourself a lot of time and money if you do the repairs yourself. You will be surprised how easy it is.
Sometimes a vacuum has electrical problems and those are a lot more difficult to fix on your own. In that case it is probably better to take it to someone who knows how to repair vacuums or make the move to a new machine.
Next time you have vacuum trouble, try these simple tricks. They might just breathe new life back into your vacuum!

Proper Use of "Shock Treatment" Ozone Generators Can Save You a Trip to the Doctor
We've all seen the headlines, "Ozone advisory. You are advised not to go outside, especially the old and young, due to high ozone smog levels". That's the headline, the sound bite that we remember. We've also heard ozone called a "toxic gas" by health professionals, seen it vilified in billboards asking us to "O-liminate Ozone" by filling up our cars at night instead of during hot summer days. Yet we've also heard that ozone is used to purify municipal water, treat cancer in many countries of the world, and get rid of smoke and mold damage when used by trained restoration contractors. So what gives? Is ozone smog, pollution, a toxic gas or is it a water and air cleaner?
The answer to that question is more complex than a simple "yes" or "no". Ozone, like oxygen, like water, like hydrogen or any other naturally occurring thing can be harmful or beneficial depending on how it is used. Many things that are "good" can kill us in excess. Water comes to mind. You've probably heard of people dying from drinking too much water too fast yet staying properly hydrated is essential for good health. Does that make water "toxic"? Their is a long list of "good" things that in excess can kill us, and ozone is one of them.
Everyone can agree that breathing high levels of ozone is detrimental to our health, especially our lungs. What about breathing low levels of ozone? Can injecting small amounts of ozone into the air actually promote good health? The answer is yes according to studies conducted at the Academy of Medical Sciences in Russia, Two doctors and researchers, Dr. Gubernskii and Dr. Dmitriev found that 0.005ppm (parts per million) to 0.02 ppm of ozone added to normal indoor air with no ozone increased animals' resistance to colds, infections, to toxic substances, and to oxygen deprivation. That's a good thing! I quote, "A general increase in the immune "biological potential" and the vital capacity of the lung function" was reported as to the reason why. Other doctors in Russia, where ozone is embraced and used with a high success rate by the medical establishment, also performed tests utilizing less than.01 ppm of ozone in an air-conditioned office building to see the effects on the inhabitants. The tests revealed that "the office dwellers levels of oxygen in the blood increase relatively quickly and remained at a higher levels for the duration of the experiment." Since cancers cannot survive oxygen rich environments in our body, increasing our bodies oxygen level is a very good thing. Russian doctors have also stated that: "Atmospheric ozone has a positive effect on animals and people. It is important to note its positive effect on the breathing system, blood composition, arterial pressure, immune system, general feeling of well-being, and mental and physical work capability. The ozone-ion complex is a necessary component of fresh air that gives it a curative effect." I guess these finding shouldn't surprise anyone since our bodies are made to handle oxygen quite efficiently, and the more oxygen we get, the better. This same study, featured in the Russian journal Priroda, also reported a vast decrease in complaints of stuffiness from the office occupants. (3.8 times fewer complaints). Yet another Russian study performed to see how adding small amounts of ozone to the air was at improving indoor air quality in schools reported that respiratory-related illnesses were drastically improved after the ozone systems were installed. The ozone concentration produced by the systems was a mere 0.015 ppm (parts per million).
Okay you're thinking, that's great! But how about some studies here at home that suggest low levels of ozone in the air promoted good health? Some publications have published studies showing the effectiveness of lower concentrations ozone (0.01 to 0.03 ppm) at removing odors and pollutants from our air tight structures. Some of these include the Refrigeration Service Engineers Society (RSES), U.S. Air Force technical publications, and Manufacturing Chemist. These studies however don't get national coverage, for somewhat obvious reason. We all know the power the International pharma drug and chemical cartels have over our elected officials, for better or for worse, such is the nature of our current system.
WHAT EXACTLY IS OZONE?
The short answer is three oxygen atoms that make up the o3 molecule known as ozone. In nature, ozone is created in our atmosphere up high to create an "ozone lawyer" to protects us from the harmful rays of the sun. Down low near earth, ozone is created to oxidize and remove man made pollution from the air we breathe. I know, I know. The EPA's spin is that ozone is in and of itself "smog". The directory of the EPA was quoted saying that she hopes someday "we can eliminate all ground ozone all together". That would be great, but to do that we'd all have to drive bikes, live in tee-pees, refrain from making any fires to cook or food, and refrain from using electricity. In other words, even during the pre-man era there was ozone in the air from fires, and if by chance her dream came true, we'd all die because we can't stop naturally occurring forest fires and without ozone to break down the smoke, we'd all eventually die. Besides, if there was no pollution in the air, mother nature wouldn't come to the rescue and create ozone to clean up our mess! Let me put this another way. If there is a lot of pollution, there will be a lot of ozone. Ozone is a blue gas, smog from industry and buses, cars, trucks, etc is a black-brown nasty color. Why call poor little Ms Ozone, the hard working cleaner that she is "smog" and not call the nasty brown and black "smog" emitted by industry smog instead? I know, I know, that's a novel idea, but I'm sure that wouldn't sit well with the Board of Directors of the major industries that are polluting our air, industries that feature former Presidents of the United States on their board of directors. If instead of "ozone alters" we were told exactly which toxic byproduct of industry was filling our air, and from which source, do you think that would put pressure on those polluters to clean up their act? Sure it would! But that would cost a lot of money, and make things more expensive, and make us less competitive around the world and lord knows we are already running an unsustainable national trade deficit. So ostensibly the powers that be met a long long time ago and came up with a plan to vilify ozone in order to draw attention away from the actual pollution culprits in order to protect those vital industries from any public outrage. Not cool, but the people behind this misinformation do what they have to do to protect our big industries which after all are the backbone of our economy in the final analysis, for better or for worse.
HOW IS OZONE CREATED?
"Down low" near the earth, ozone is created when smog from industry, older buses, trucks, automobiles, etc reacts with the rays of the sun to "split" oxygen in the atmosphere. The free oxygen atom then adheres to other oxygen molecules to form the highly unstable molecule known as Ozone. The ozone will then quickly attack the man made pollution in earnest by sending the extra atom of oxygen off on a search and destroy the offensive toxic substances by breaking the chemical chains of the pollutant, thus breaking them down into smaller molecules that are non-toxic. Ozone is also be created by an electrical spark, such as by lightning, the suns rays, UV lamps in a certain wave length, and by high voltage ozone plates in ozone generators.
HOW IS OZONE USED IN INDUSTRY?
Ozone is currently being used in a number of industries with great success. As a water purifier, ozone is second to none. Unlike the very toxic and cancer causing cleaner Chlorine, which our government endorses wholeheartedly by the way, ozone breaks down toxic substances in the water and then reverting back to oxygen without creating any harmful byproducts. That can't be said for Chlorine. When Chlorine in water comes in contact with food for instance, toxic byproducts are created which study after study suggest cause cancer.
" Surface water is being chlorinated to kill germs that might pollute it. Chlorine reacts with organic substances, causing formation of chlororganic substances (e.g. chloroform, chlorphenols, dioxins). Chloroform has long been known to be a potential cancer causative agent in animal experimentation.
Extensive epidemiological studies on human populations were able to confirm the existence of a similar causative link in humans. A study done in Iowa, USA, involving 28,000 women showed a clear correlation between cancer incidence and water chlorination." (1)
This is just one of many studies that tie chlorine in water to cancer. To make matters worse, when we clean our fruits in veggies in chlorinated water, we create cancer causing by-products:
"Some of nature's most valuable and essential anti-cancer and anti-disease phytochemical nutrients which are commonly found in food have been discovered to form deadly cancer causing substances when consumed or combined with chlorinated tap water. This discovery includes familiar foods including soy, fruits, vegetables, tea, many health products, and even some vitamins. Research has proven that these essential nutrients are the exact same families of compounds, that even in infinitesimal amounts have been tormenting the water treatment and chlorine industries for years.
Recently, a joint study was undertaken in Japan by research scientists at the National Institute of Health Sciences and Shizuoka Prefectural University. They determined that natural organic substances originating from foods, including fruits, soy, and green or black tea, react when tap water is chlorinated, forming dangerous cancer causing compounds. These deadly compounds have been named MX, which stands for "unknown mutagen", and are similar to the already well-known and more easily detected cancer causing THMs (trihalomethanes).
The Japanese scientists specifically mentioned that their studies showed that MX is created by the reaction of chlorine with natural organic plant phytochemicals such as catechins, which are contained in tea, and flavonoids which are found in fruit. Since Japan has an extremely high consumption of tea, fruits, and soy products, it is easy to see how high amounts of residues from these foods would end up in their wastewater treatment and water recycling systems.
Earlier studies by scientists in Finland in 1997 determined that MX is 170 times more deadly than other known toxic byproducts of chlorination, and was shown in laboratory studies to damage the thyroid gland as well as cause cancerous tumors." (2)
Recent studies by http://www.ewg.org, the Environmental Working Group found that nations municipal water supplies are overwrought with pharmaceutical drugs and other harmful chemicals. Well, the water districts that use Chlorine anyway to disinfect their water supplies. However, the water districts which employ ozone to disinfect the water were given a clean bill of health; no pharma drugs there!
"In a German study7, granular activated carbon (GAC) and ozonation used in a lab and in a water treatment plant, often in series, were very effective at removing carbamazepine, diclofenac and bezafibrate. The lab also showed that 3.0 milligrams per liter (mg/L) of ozone cut primidone levels by nearly 90 percent. Although neither GAC nor ozonation at any concentration was fully successful with clofibric acid separately, the two in combination cut levels of the drug to below the limits of detection during plant testing.
Shane Snyder, research and development project manager for the Southern Nevada Water Authority, testified in mid-April to a US Senate subcommittee about the pharmaceuticals issue on behalf of the American Water Works Association (AWWA), the water utility trade group. In an interview with Water Technology®, he said the powdered form of activated carbon can be even more effective if used properly.
He said ozone's effectiveness is tied to its ability to chemically attack the pharmaceutical molecules. For example, it can oxidize different kinds of functional aromatic bonds (forces binding certain carbon-based atomic structures within molecules) in pharmaceuticals.
In the German study, Ternes states that his research has shown ozone capable of easily oxidizing 90 percent of 51 different pharmaceuticals. It is particularly effective with compounds with amine groups and phenolic hydroxyl groups."
Most people don't know that tap water contains recycled urine from the toilet, that the pharma drugs people pee out end up in the tap water they drink (unless their water is ozonated), nor that they get the phama drugs plus cancer causing agents if their water district uses Chlorine to sanitize their recycled toilet water, aka tap water. Too bad some ex-Presidents of the USA sit on the Board of Directors of several big chemical companies that make Chlorine, and the pharma drugs in question.
What other industries, besides waste water management use ozone? Ozone is also used in the laundry industry to clean clothes without the use of harsh chemicals. In the food industry, ozone is used to preserve food without the use of artificial preservatives. Ozone kills the bacteria that breaks down food and spoils it while not effecting the food whatsoever. Ozone is used by restoration contractors to re-mediate smoke, water, and mold damage. Crime Scene Cleanup companies use ozone generators to get rid of "dead smells" and to destroy and organic material left behind. Some hospitals use ozone generators before and after operations to disinfect the operating room of any bacteria, viruses, and to destroy any left behind organic material as well as to disinfect beds. This is just a partial list for the successful use of air and water ozone generators in industry today. For links to these industries, check out the link at the bottom titled: "Links, Info Supporting This Article".
It's well beyond a foregone conclusion that water ozonation is beneficial on many different levels. We've also reviewed a few studies that suggest low levels of ozone in ambient air promotes good health. How can you use ozone safely and effectively to promote good health in your home? Here are a few suggestions:
1) Buy a "shock treatment" commercial ozone generator and perform regular "shock treatments" when nobody is home (adhere to all operational instructions) to disinfect your home and nip any potential problems (mold, surface viruses, etc) in the bud.
2) Buy a "repeat cycle timer" and place your ozone generator near the air return. Run your HVAC system in the "ON" position 24/7 and use a quality MERV 11 furnace filter (change monthly) to remove airborne dust and dander from your indoor air. Have the repeat cycle timer turn on for 5-6 seconds ever 4-5 minutes. Buy an ozone monitor to make sure the ozone level does not rise above.025 ppm, a low and conservative number that has been shown in many tests to promote good health. (EPA exposure limit is.10 ppm)
You'll immediately notice your air smells fresher and cleaner, similar to the air after a thunderstorm. Thunder creates ozone by splitting oxygen in the air in the same way an ozone generator splits oxygen, with electricity. A side bonus, you'll notice flying insects head for the hills or die, and turn right around when the chance presents itself to come inside your home. (They HATE even the lightest scent of ozone!) You'll notice your kids get sick less often, you everyone sleeps better at night. Most importantly, you'll notice the general health of everyone in your family improves over time when you provide low levels of ozone with lower dust levels due to running your HVAC fan 24/7. Of course when you try and tell your doctor this is because you're running an ozone generator to create low levels of ozone in your home, he or she will most likely tell you you're nuts and that ozone is a toxic gas. But you'll know better.

7 Hot Christmas Gifts For A Man Who Has Everything
I write all about mens gifts, and one of the most common questions I get asked through my website is "what gift do I buy for my man. He has plenty of money and buys what he wants, so he already has everything he wants".
This is of course pretty common. Lots of men just get out there and buy something if they want it, they don't drop hints near birthday time hoping that the hint will be picked up and acted on. Almost by definition, if he wants it he's already got it.
Not always of course, often it's a question of cost. There are men with a list of wants that they would like to fill, but just can't afford them. If your man is like that, and you can afford those gifts, then ask him and see what he'll say, he'll probably jump at the chance to tell you about those things he'd love the most but can't buy for himself.
But lets assume for a moment that your man can afford what he wants, and so you're a little stuck for ideas for unique and unusual birthday gifts or Christmas gifts that are going to get his juices going.
Here's 7 ideas for gifts for him. He may love all of them, he may love none of them, but I doubt it.
There'll be at least one gift for him there that he'll love. Some are extremely expensive and some aren't.
1. Lingerie. Now it isn't entirely a unique gift idea but it's one that is almost guaranteed to work. Men love lingerie. Worn by their women of course. I have seen lots of lists of favorite gifts for men and there is one common gift theme. Lingerie is always up there.
No matter how many pieces of beautiful lingerie a woman has, if she selects well and chooses the right piece I can just about guarantee her man will love it, provided of course she wears it for him.
It's almost a can't fail gift.
And there is wonderful lingerie available for women of any size, so girls it's no excuse to say that you're a little large. If your man loves you large he'll love you large and looking great in some sexy lingerie.
2. Adventure gifts. Most men love adventure and adrenalin. Not all, but most. And many women aren't
aware that there are some excellent companies around that cater to this extremely well. It's possible to find all sorts of adventure gifts for men and women that you would never have thought existed.
And for all sorts of tastes. Would he love to do his first parachute jump? Try white water rafting?
Drive a tank or a supercar? Go zero-g just like the astranauts do in training? You can give him a gift of any of these things and thousands more, from the extreme adrenalin gift to the gentle and invigorating and pampering gift. The adventure gift companies cater for all tastes in outdoors and adventure and adrenalin, even to beautiful and luxurious days like wine tastings and spa days. There's something for everyone.
3. An eco holiday. There is a growing worldwide movement to charity and volunteer and ecological work and travel. Rather than just buy him a holiday in Europe, which is a little ho hum, why not buy him some volunteer travel with a difference. There are lots of companies which offer adventure travel with a twist, volunteer work that helps out those less fortunate than ourselves, both people and animals and the environment.
He may end up on a research vessel in the waters off Mexico counting turtles or in the wilds of Africa measuring the distribution of African animals. The destinations are almost always exotic. There is work to be done but it is so interesting and adventuruous and invigorating that he probably won't even see it as work. It's fun, it's exciting, it's adventurous and it gives back to the environment and to many less fortunate than ourselves helping committed scientists with their research.
It costs, it's not free, but it's an extremely unique and fabulous holiday that he's unlikely to better.
4 Chinese art. This is a favorite of mine because I lived in China for a while and just love Chinese art. We have so many pieces that we don't have enough space to hang them all. From beatiful Chinese wall hangings to the absolutely fabuluous and quite unique teapots of Yixing, there are so many Chinese artworks that would go so well in so many of our Western homes.
And it's so cheap. For the man who loves his art, Chinese art is a gift of art with a difference.
5. Mens jewelry. Now this is a gift for a man who likes to wear jewelry obviously, and you need to establish this first. However for a man who does like his jewelry there are some extremely modern and stunning jewelry pieces available on the net now at very competitive prices. And they are made exclusively for men using some of the finest and most masculine of jewelry metals. Like Titanium. If you haven't checked out Titanium jewelry for men on the net lately and your man likes jewelry you should do so. It makes for a wonderful and sometimes extremely romantic gift for the right man.
6. An elephant painting. Another one for the man who likes his art. Painted by a real Asian elephant on paper which is made from elephant dung. Now before you wonder if I've gone mad check it out. The elephants really do the painting, I have a video of it on my website. And believe it or not they paint recognisable objects. The paintings look great, are extremely inexpensive, and would make a great artwork to hang near the table to stimulate some evening conversation with his friends.
And in Thailand, where a lot of the elephant paintings are done, they also make the most stunning paper from elephant dung. And yes, again I've got links on my website to sites where you can actually see how it's done, it's not a fraud. It's beautiful paper, and you can get his elephant painting done on elephant dung paper.
7. And for the man who has absolutely everything and who won't like anything at all from number 1 to 6, then buy him a whale. It is perfectly possible to do. He doesn't actually get a whale wrapped in paper to unwrap on his birthday. However there are organisations like the Hebridean Whale and Dolphin trust that track and identify individual whales and dolphins, and allow you to name his own whale or dolphin. There is a real whale or dolphin out there that is named for him.
The money helps in the protection of our whales and gives him a unique and memorable gift.
So there you have it, 7 suggestions for great gifts for the man who has everything. Ranging in price from $50 or so, to seriously expensive.
Now you don't have any excuses to say "I have no idea what to buy him for his birthday" any more.
