make the last line:
\) -print -exec rm -f '{}' ';'
If you don't do this the script WILL DELETE any files
that match the beginning of a filename you want deleted
but that contains a space in it (since the choice was "rm -f")
e.g. if /home/Temp/Test contains two files:
"it" and "it is ok to delete me.tmp"
The first will be deleted - but not the second.
(and you can also use \; instead of ';' :-)
