Am I a fan of Tinker Bell? Quite frankly, no. But I respect good animated movies. And if you put together the animation technology available these days with a decent Blue Ray player, you are in for a treat with the latest from the Disney Studios.

It took us a few years to get a Wii. When my son's sixth birthday came around his grandma got him one, so we're now getting exposed to the Wii experience.
I am amazed at how this game can get you off the couch (a much needed thing these days) and into action. Having only played Wii Sports so far, I find myself breaking more than a sweat after a few rounds of Boxing.
I cannot say enough good things about the Wii. Between the console and the Wii Fit Balance Board, we are looking at a brand new way to exercise and have a lot of fun at the same time.

She resists the temptation to jump into offering short-term tips, asking the reader to consider ways to build strength and health into your organization, by focusing on the essentials, those things that are bound to help you deal with crises (she is very emphatic about the fact that you cannot AVOID crises, but you… Read more

I mostly sampled music from artists that I was familiar with, but discovered a couple of new acts that I was very happy with.
I couldn't find a few albums that I wanted to include in the list: Sigur Ros, Fleet Foxes, TV On the Radio, Death Cab for Cutie, Portishead, French Kicks. Here is my REAL&hellip Read more
The Diabetes Hands Foundation is a California-based nonprofit created to help connect people touched by diabetes and raise diabetes awareness. I am constantly looking for new ways to further our mission and learning from other nonprofits and how they do it.
