The Oscars (The Academy Awards ceremony)-Sunday, February 24 2013

 Congratulations Adele! We want her to win all the awards, all the time.  Naomi Watts The Impossible Best Actress nominee shimmered in silver, one-shouldered Armani Prive gown, Neil Lane jewels and Jimmy Choo sandals.  Jennifer Aniston is presenting now. What do you think of her red gown?  Could there be a better color on her? Reese works the carpet like the pro she is.  Amanda: Love it or hate it? (A shame not to see her PERFECT hair!)  Jennifer Hudson SHINES.  Kristen Stewart (who arrived on crutches--apparently she hurt her foot!). Love it or hate it?  The finished look! Jennifer Lawrence is a dream in Dior. What do you think, on a scale of 1-10?  Jessica Chastain Zero Dark Pretty is the only way we can describe the Oscar nom in va-va-voom Giorgio Armani. (She calls it her “Happy Birthday Mr. President” dress.)

HP's Vivienne Tam Edition netbook

HP's Vivienne Tam Edition netbook This 10 inch, 2 pound fashion-conscious electronic accessory features a beautiful floral design found in Ms. Vivienne Tam Spring 2009 collection, allowing you to be ever so stylish while computer ready on the go, at the same time. It’s small, so it fits in a clutch… literally, I tried it. :) But honestly I’d use it only in a regular handbag.  It weighs 2.5 pounds (1 kg), so even a weakling like myself can schlep it around. Blogging is possible. Probably the most mobile and comfortable way to blog without the every day computer. Now if internet cafes were easier to find... The keyboard is almost as big as a full size keyboard… and big enough to type comfortably. The screen is small (duh) but it’s browsable. I found the F11 key to be very useful, it hides the navigation bar in the browser. The screen also has this handy privacy feature where you can only see the screen properly if you are directly in front of it. Nosy neighbors, no thank you. I ha
