With mother's day around the corner, my daughter was asking me what present to buy for her mother (my wife in case you are wondering :) ) After thinking through and flipping through magazines for ideas, I think stackable rings are a great idea. Here are five reasons why this is so:

1) Stackable rings allows two person to have the same item on their body. I think that is pretty special especially for a mum and a daughter. There are few presents I could think of that is as meaningful as a pair of stackable rings

2) They have lots of variety and style of choose from. You can choose different materials for the ring. Ranging from white gold stackable rings to platinum stackable rings, you can have lot a bit of choices. In terms of gemstones, you also can choose from different varieties including ruby, emerald and other colored gemstones.

3) The prices of these rings are fairly cheap, ranging from USD20 to USD 40 dollars. As a mother's day gift, I think this price range is about right and is also something that my 14 year old daughter can afford from her savings.

4) You can stack more than one ring together to form different looks. Unlike other types of rings, stackable ring are meant to be stacked together to create designs that is unique. By having different ring designs and colored gemstones, you can see different patterns being formed by different people. This uniqueness is something that I think both the mother and the daughter will appreciate.

5) Finally, you can buy these rings easily from different sources, either offline or online. No need to worry about where to buy the rings from.

Yesterday, I talked about buying retractable badge holders in my previous post. Today, at my job, we are were looking into how to create more space at the office and we found something called modular storage cubes that are quite useful in helping to create that. They are storage cubes that can be stacked and arranged into rectangular or square blocks. This help to save space by taking advantage of the empty wall area in my office.

When considering what to buy, we first think about the materials that we want. There are a couple of choices from wood to steel. After considering the kind of weight we are going for and the kind of design that would fit into an office environment, we decided to go for modular steel cubes. This is because steel gives a a sense of sophistication to the theme as well as being strong enough to carry the weight of the various office items.

Besides materials, we also consider other secondary factors such as the colors of the cube. I prefer white but my other colleague is a fan of black. In the end, we took a comprise and opted for the grey version , which complements the steel material very well.

Finally, we went to measure the size of our office to get a sense of how many cubes can be fitted into the space that we currently have. We took quite some time to measure everything but was happy that we got it get everything we want by end of today.

With all these decisions that were made, we can make a good recommendation to your approval board for the purchase of these modular storage cubes.

I am at a new department at my office. We work after workplace management including the buying of office supplies. For the past few weeks, I was looking into how to buy cheap retractable badge holders for my company. I had to research online to find the best price and to look into lots of different materials and designs. It was a lot of work for buying something that hang onto your neck for identification! However, I also realise corporate supplies purchasing is actually not as easy as there was a number of processes you need to follow. This is what happens in a large company and since I am working in one, i had no choice but to follow it.

Since I went the process of purchasing these badge holders, I thought it was a waste not to share what I have learned about buying them so I might as blog about it. It is also good since I haven't updated this blog in months!

Retractable badge holders comes in many different types of materials from hard plastic, foldable plastic to heavy duty. At first, I had no idea what to choose. After consulting some research online, I find the hard plastic the best. They will not deface your card and mess up your identification. They also are quite durable although they are prone to breakage if you happen to sit on them.

I initially consider whether to get the retractable or non retractable version. In the end I decided on the later as it is more convenient as it can allow staff to simply stretch the holder to whatever they need to be placed. While the prices are slightly higher, the benefits more than outweighs the costs of buying them.

Just saw something cool in the news today. Bladeless electric fans! Can you believe it? No more cleaning of blades. No more worrying of getting cut. This is a wonderful invention and I wonder why it took so long??

Anyway, this news lead to discover other cool stuff by the same investor. There is for example a bagless vacuum cleaner?! Wow, just goes to show how many little inventions are being created everyday without us knowing.

I am now on the hunt for these strange little gadget. If you have seen any, post them my way. I will be doing some product reviews of them.

Hope you little post on (not exactly) a product review of bladeless electric fans.

Bamboo products is becoming more mainstream. Although some might not know it but bamboo is fantastic resource that can be used for things such as creating products, flooring, food, and medicine. This popularity can be traced to the fact that bamboo is a very good material. It is naturally durable and is eco-friendly as well.

Bamboo is highly sustainable plant. Typically, it can achieve up to 3-5 feet a day and can be harvested within 4 years. It also requires no chemical fertilizers. When it comes to the attention it needs, bamboo needs little rain and is resistant to drought, unlike conventional cotton which is chemical and water intensive to grow. Moreover, bamboo can be yielded much more times when compared with the likes of cotton.

One main reason why bamboo is popular is due to its eco-friendliness. It can be grown virtually anywhere including soil-eroded areas as its root structure can help to hold the soil together. Hence, it is much easier to grow renew bamboo relative to other plants. In addition, bamboo helps the ground to be regenerated into useful land, which adds to the benefits of using bamboo. Finally, bamboo also reduces the amount of CO2 in the air as it produces about 35 per cent more oxygen than normal trees and it also works as a highly effective air filter absorbing huge amounts of carbon dioxide while cooling and oxygenating the air.

Beyond the eco-friendliness, bamboo has actually very good characteristics that makes it suitable materials for producing our daily products. It has a nice and soft texture and hence can be made into the pulp and yarns that go in to bamboo are rug, bamboo outdoor shades and even things like bamboo bath mat. Moreover, bamboo fiber possess natural attributes that makes it resistant to pesticides or anti-microbial treatments. It also has a unique and naturally occurring antibacterial properties that help fight odors called "bamboo kun". These benefits explain why bamboo fiber is suitable for making bamboo pillows and bamboo bed sheets for asthmatics and allergy sufferers.

Currently, the technology to extract bamboo fibers and making them into textile has progress remarkably. In particular, it is now possible to produce the necessary quality for turning bamboo into all the household products that we have previously mentioned. The cost of doing so is also dropping, thus making bamboo products more affordable than ever before.

In conclusion, as technology improves, you can expect different types of bamboo yarns developed. These new materials will allow us to develop even more types of bamboo products. Don't be surprised if you find yourself surrounded with bamboo products in the years to come.

The Fujifilm instax mini 7S could be the smallest camera I have seen!

This camera works like the Polaroid and it able to get your pictures immediately. All you have to do is point, shoot, and you will have a photo about the size of a business-card that you can share instantly with your friends.

The photo is even small enough to keep in your billfold's credit card section. In general,  Fujifilm instax mini 7S are cool to have around.

It is a busy time for us as we are going to revamp our office and project managing this change has been quite stressful and energy consuming to say the least. The most important factor we are musing over now is what type of flooring to use. The office folks wanted something that is good for the environment and at the same time can withstand the high traffic that our office is expected to experience. So, after spending quite a bit of time researching on the various types of choices, we selected something called bamboo flooring, in particular strand woven bamboo flooring.

I have began running again because of my ever increasing wrist line. I can't remember when was the year that I stopped exercising but the effects of not doing so over the year is now abundantly clear for those who seen my stomach. My goal is to run at least once a week for the first 2 months and pick up from them.

But first, I  need a pair of solid running shoes. I have heard the new balance is not bad especially their new balance men's mr993 running shoe model. However, I have found one review, which is the one I have linked to.

I need more advice in this area. You come across any good running shoes?

As I was browsing through smoothie makers, I came across this strange new smoothie favour called acai smoothie. Apparently, it is a fruit that taste like raspberry with a hint of chocolate. That sounds interesting!. I dig around some more and find that the popularity of acai is actually started by Oprah during one of her talk shows. It seems that she is promoting it aggressively, which explains why acai smoothie is getting popular. Btw, here is the recipe for acai smoothie in case you are dying to try one.
