PC World has put together a list of systems that were "overpriced and underpowered," had parts that failed two days after the warranty expired and well, caused you to enter PC Hell. (Their words, not mine!) I've always been a Mac girl myself, but it's always fun to reminisce about clunky hunks of junk. Here's more: Number one, we Read more

Floriane David of Make Up For Ever Academy admits Read more
Gemini isn't just one of the funnest roller coasters ever (Cedar Point for the win), but it also happens to be the third sign of the zodiac. Personality-wise, Geminis are known for their sharp wit and curious natures. And seeing that they're the sign of the twins, Geminis are therefore known for being dual-natured and complex.

I have to say, it's a good thing this show is only getting one more season, because boy are these same old stories getting tired. Season five wraps up on a low note for most of the characters (especially Serena, who is at her all-time worst), and I can't say I'm biting my nails over the big cliffhanger at the end. Read more
