This model has been in my family for many years.  It represents the procession in which the bride (in a wealthy family) is transported to the groom's family's house during the Ming Dynasty (1368 to 1644 AD).  It was my mother's when she was a child and was a gift from some friends of my grandparents who bought it on a trip to Shanghai .  Through out history, weddings ...

I'm not sure if you've seen the commercial for Proactiv and thought about getting it? Well, I did and I bought it. I don't have acne, but at the time one or two pimples was acne and I had to have it. So on the computer I went on and pulled up the website and ordered the 3-step process with the free refining mask for $39.95. When I received it I couldn't ...

    In about 2004, I purchased a nVidia GeForce video card. I have been using it ever since. It could use a little bit more memory, but it is sufficient if you play 2-3 games, depending on your RAM. The overall graphics with this card is what I would say pretty nice. It is able to run Adobe Photoshop CS on my computer with ease. Be careful that you don't use up all the memory...

    When I first got my computer for gaming back in 2004, my father bought a barebone computer for my brother and me. When he got this computer, he also received an AMD Athlon XP 2500+ 1.83 GHz processor, as compared to the 1.5 that came with it. This isn't a very speedy processor, and has 90 nm architexture, but for that time it was fairly decent. With the included fan and h...

Like many people I love taking pictures of my family, friends, and life events.  I've been using various digital cameras for close to the last decade.  As soon as I filled my first memory card and had them printed out I knew that the local drug store was not the best option due to higher prices!I knew there had to be a better option for printing my digital photos!  So I turne...

I don't work in an office. I'm a semiretired musician who does some home recording and some writing. Doing these things requires me to be conversant with a computer and because I use the Macintosh platform, I have had to rely on Microsoft Word in order to work in the PC-centric world of business. There are other word processors which will save to the .doc standard but the ubiquitous word jus...

The RP150 Processor has to be THE best procesor I have ever laid my eyes on. For one, the sound quality is great. Secondly, There are 100 pre-programmed settings! Yeah, that means you get 100 things to mess around with and get bored with, which will undoubtedly take a long while (I've had mine for 3-5 months and I am still not bored with any of the settings at all), and when you DO get bore...

Endangered Species chocolate not only tastes great but you can feel good about eating it since the cacao is ethically grown and 10% of the profits are donated to ecological causes.We had company this weekend and went out to eat, a rare treat for us these days.  Then we stopped in an organic foods store to find some chocolate for dessert.  They had a lot of choices, but as it turned ou...

Looking through the Argos book my daughter came across The Gourmet Girl cupcake maker, she asked for the cupcake maker for Christmas, looking at the picture I was pleasently surprised as it actually looked pretty good, anyway I tried to get her the cupcake maker only to find that it seemed to be out off stock, shortly after Christmas I managed to get my hands on it and needless to say my d...
