You didn’t think all you could do on your Nintendo DS Lite
was to play Yoshi’s Island
and Mario Kart
all day long, did you? Or are you more of a Dr. Kawashima
kind of DS game player? Whatever the case, get with the program; you can cook up a storm with Personal Trainer: Cooking on your trusty DS. It’s so wonderful because the DS is small and will fit on your counter while you cook and remind you about what you need to do to prepare some of the most tastiest dishes on earth. Check it out.
First things first: select a recipe. With 245+ to choose from, Personal Trainer: Cooking makes it easy to find what you’re looking for by helping you browse by country, ingredients, difficulty, cooking time, cooking technique or even calorie count.
Once you’ve found something that looks yummy, take a look at the ingredients. Out of butter or need to buy some cumin? Just tap them with the stylus to automatically add the ingredients to your Shopping List. Making several dishes tonight? Just keep tapping ingredients – your Shopping List keeps it all in one place for you. Now that you’ve got your ingredients, it’s time to start cooking. The DS Chef is there with you, talking you through every step along the way. Don’t know how to fillet a trout? Watch the demonstration video when you get to that step. Didn’t quite catch the last step? Just say “Repeat,” and the Chef will explain it again. You can pause the recipe at any time to consult the Cooking A-Z guide, and prompts will appear within recipes for specific terms you might need more information about.

Shop early for gifts! Yes, right now. You’ll thank me later.
“This slicer is an inexpensive alternative to a professional stainless-steel mandoline, this device makes it possible to quickly, uniformly, and safely slice and julienne vegetables and fruits. It also shreds cabbage and neatly dices potatoes, tomatoes, and onions. For safety, a holder firmly grips food with stainless-steel prongs so fingers are protected from the German surgical-steel blades, and the three inserts accompanying the device lock in position. The inserts act as a guide for slicing against the V-frame’s knife that reverses to create slices either 1/4-inch or 1/16-inch thick and two julienne inserts for creating 1/8-inch or 3/8-inch strips. For storage, the V-frame, all three inserts, and the safety holder fit into a caddy that can stand upright on the counter, lie flat in a drawer, or hang on the wall. Made of rugged plastic, the device measures 15 inches long and 6 inches wide when assembled for storage.” –Fred Brack

You might have already heard about Kindle, the electronic reader. (also called a Wireless Reading Device). It has become one of the most popular electronic devices lately, particular after Ms. Oprah gave a big thumbs up. But it’s expensive, isn’t it? Yes, but what you might consider is that you will not be accumulating piles of books, and you will not be encouraging the use of print, which is catastrophic to the environment in so many evil ways.
Like Oprah, I think the Kindle will make a wonderful gift for bookworms. No, it doesn’t mean they have to give up real books entirely, but it will give them a choice PLUS it’ll be easy to transport several books for example to take on vacation without the weight! I can relate to that perk.
If you buy your Kindle before November 1, 2008, you can receive $50 off the total price when you purchase!! Hurry because November 1st is right around the corner. Happy Reading, everyone!

Although many of us do not want to admit it, the U.S. has become a weak link in the global economy due to governmental mismanagement by obvious players. The 5 largest American investment banks don’t even exist anymore! Why? Whose fault is it? Does BUSH ring a bell? How ’bout the American government? Anyway, while the U.S. is withering away in power on various levels (and has practically become a “Banana Republic” no thanks to Dubya), China has suddenly gained an enormous financial and social level, never before experienced in history. Their power sort of crept up on us, didn’t it? Pretty amazing, huh?
I find it very unpleasant that this has happened and I am fairly bitter that China produces practically everything on earth and the quality is crap, and sometimes they decide to put toxic chemicals in foods and baby toys, furniture etc., but whatever. The world allowed this and so must assume its actions. What’s to do now?
Adjust to it, whether reluctant or not. China is here to stay and if we can’t accept that, we’ll have to move to another planet. For businesses, I’d think something like language learning would be in order. Billions of people on earth speak Chinese, and to grow your business internationally, you would be remiss to avoid China. That being said, they have a reputation of working unethically and dishonestly. That happens everywhere, so if you do your homework, you should be able to locate the best people to work with you and your company. While English is a language of business, many Chinese people do not speak it and so if you’d like to do business with them, you will have to take the initiative and learn Chinese. A few courses can do wonders.
Who has time to learn a language? I know, it takes time but if you get excellent language learning DVDs, you can work with your own schedule and Learn Chinese at your own pace

Yes, Rolex watches are a bit more expensive than your average watch but it will last forever, and that is something to remember when making this purchase. So many things are meant to be thrown away these days, even washing machines don’t last as long as they used to. That is because the world has adopted the notion of “planned obsolescence,” which means that the things you buy will not last very long because they were made that way. Why? So you buy another one. And another one. And another one. Forever. I hate this idea because it’s bad for the environment and you really end up spending so much more over time.
Why do that? Why waste money and contribute more trash that goes into landfills, which then creates physical waste pollution and later on, air pollution?
Quality items are rare these days, which is why I’m recommending a watch that will last forever.
