This year is shaping out to be a great year for family movies. Parents wanting to bond with their kids will surely be happy with the movie selection this year. Here’s a list of movies coming out (or that are already out but you can still catch) that both you and your kids can enjoy.
Evan Almighty (PG)

Evan Almighty is a blockbuster earning around $20 million on its opening night, which isn’t as big as Bruce Almighty’s earnings but is still big enough to be one of the top earners this year. The film is hilarious. With Steve Carrell and hundreds of animals as cast you’re sure to get great lots of laughs. Visit the website for a sneak peek and help the environment by buying a tree at the “Almighty Forest”.
Ratatouille (G)

Ratatouille , pronounced rat-a-too-ee, is truly a movie for everyone. Even the really young ones can see this film and enjoy the sight of a cooking rat. I have been waiting for this to come out and it’s finally opening today all over US. For more fun after the movie you might want to eat some real French ratatouille.

Transformers (PG 13)

Great movie to watch with your teens. Of course they might prefer to watch with their friends but if you grew up with Transformers, like I did, you wouldn’t let a few teenagers see this before you do. The movie opens July 4 in US but is already showing in Asia! Yipee. Transformers more than meets the eye….
This news is a little sad for me because I am a huge fan of the TV sitcom “The Office”. I’ve been following this show for the past two years and have really admired all the characters. One of my personal favorites was Daryl, the Dunder Mifflin warehouseman whom Michael (the boss) always always try [...]

As you spot and adapt to change, you should not only prepare [...]
What is your carbon footprint? Hmm… ok, let’s start over… What is a carbon footprint?
A carbon footprint is a “measure of the impact human activities have on the environment in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases produced, measured in units of carbon dioxide“.
Here’s a nifty tool from ivillage.com, an online calculator to measure carbon footprints. I think this is [...]
Well loved queen of pop Madonna has spent 50 revolutions around the sun! That’s an awesome feat for someone who’s energized the world with good music… first-class entertainer. Madonna Louise Ciccone Ritchie (born August 16, 1958) is from Bay City, Michigan. Moved to New York city for a career in modern dance. After 25 years [...]
I’ve had my fair share of local and international travels. Everytime I “hit the road” I am always brought to “hit the wall” when the time comes to pack. I just couldn’t fit what I need to bring in a small suitcase. Really! My solution? Have the wife do the packing for me. I tell [...]
While summer can be the fun-filled time of the year IT CAN also be a huge debt trap. Every year, Americans splurge on summer expenses like trips, hotels, summer clothing, gears, and gadgets. Oh and all those have-nots that people just “need” to make summer extra perfect.
Every mall will hand out “special deals” to hook [...]
She is Dara Grace Torres, an Olympic record holder winning 12 medals where 5 of which was won at the 2002 Sydney Olympiad alone. The only Olympic swimmer who represented her country (the USA) 5 times: 1984, 1988, 1992, 2000 & 2008. Oh yes, she is currently is 41.
She is just one of the [...]
