Dyson DC31 Handheld cleaner
Original Message   Jun 25, 2009 10:06 am
In the press today:-
http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/standard/article-23711862-details/Dyson+with+more+revs+than+F1+racer/article.do

Product details:-

  • Motor goes at 106,000rpm 'three times faster than any other motor'
  • 200 watt motor
  • 65/38 air watts (switchable power??)
  • £129.99 GBP RRP, powered brush version £149.99

I think the devil will be in the other details, as we learn them. Presumably it's using the Dyson Digital motor? From the photo, the collection bin looks slightly deeper and has a more prominent release switch. It has improved max suction (DC16 has 36 air watts) so I'm presuming (nay hoping) that it can run in standard mode for more than 5mins and switch to a 'turbo' mode as needed?

I have prefectly good DC16, but I could be tempted by something with a longer run time and twice the already impresive suction for car cleaning.

If my vacuum can remove even one spec of dirt that yours misses, then mine is better than yours - even if there's no proof that mine would have picked up as much dirt as yours...

I see my phrase “being shut down” (my post above) has an involuntary effect - the con’s and their groupies become agitated.  I have enjoyed seeing the rats here react.  By contrast, honest men and women have nothing to react to.  You con’s and con-groupies become easily agitated not unlike thieves, drug dealers, pimps when they hear a sudden knock at the door.  The more you react, the more rat-like and culpable you look.

Schizophrenia is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a mental disorder characterized by abnormalities in the perception or expression of reality. Distortions in perception may affect all five senses, including sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch, but most commonly manifest as auditory hallucinations, paranoid or bizarre delusions, or disorganized speech and thinking with significant social or occupational dysfunction. Onset of symptoms typically occurs in young adulthood,[1] with approximately 0.4–0.6%[2][3] of the population affected. Diagnosis is based on the patient's self-reported experiences and observed behavior.

Increased dopamine activity in the mesolimbic pathway of the brain is consistently found in schizophrenic individuals. The mainstay of treatment is antipsychotic medication; this type of drug primarily works by suppressing dopamine activity. Dosages of antipsychotics are generally lower than in the early decades of their use. Psychotherapy, and vocational and social rehabilitation are also important. In more serious cases—where there is risk to self and others—involuntary hospitalization may be necessary, although hospital stays are less frequent and for shorter periods than they were in previous times.[6]

The disorder is thought to mainly affect cognition, but it also usually contributes to chronic problems with behavior and emotion. People with schizophrenia are likely to have additional (comorbid) conditions, including major depression and anxiety disorders;[7] the lifetime occurrence of substance abuse is around 40%. Social problems, such as long-term unemployment, poverty and homelessness, are common. Furthermore, the average life expectancy of people with the disorder is 10 to 12 years less than those without, due to increased physical health problems and a higher suicide rate.[8]

Thanks Severus for the info about mental/emotional disorders.  Hopefully DIB will get professional help.  Tho very unlikely.  I understand of the 6 percent of the population with these disorders, less than 20 percent seek professional help.  I always wondered the reason that DIB's father did not take DIB into the 3 family restaurant businesses.   DIB would never provide reasons.  Perhaps this is the reason.  Restaurant workers/owners have to socialize with their clientele in a personal and professional manner.  With the problems DIB demonstrates here he would not make it very long in the food and beverage business.  In fact any business.  Perhaps another reason DIB constantly bad mouths all the vacuum indies and all vacuum brands other than Sir James.  Not just stupidity here [as I mentioned with DIB's sign] but mentally/emotionally impaired and challenged.

Carmine,

Who told you of my fathers business?

My dad died last month and we celebrated his life and accomplishments at his memorial just 2 1/2 weeks ago.  The devil is using you. - I know this by your timing and the quality of your attack...  You’re the first and only person to question what my father and I had.  Sick.

I'm very sorry to hear of the passing of your father.  May his soul rest in peace with the angels and the saints.  My heartfelt sympathies to you and your family on his passing.

I learned about the restaurant businesses from your posts here.  The devil had nothing to do with it.

I appreciate that Carmine and all forgiven.  The devil use’s us all to a lesser or greater degree, although the greater majority of believers refuse except this (believers refusing to believe...  so what else is new).

As said so eloquently by St. Peter:  Be ever somber and vigilant, for the devil, like a hungry lion, is ever on the prowl for someone to devour.

We do indeed battle... hard.  It's nice to see it put down and remember those in Christ.  Thank You.
