Audiobook Recommendation: The Windup Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi
It’s been a while since I’ve done an audiobook recommendation. I recently purchased The Windup Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi, which was released last month.

My First Pump Espresso Machine: Krups XP 4050
I’ve been drooling over the delight of making my own espresso for more than 8 months. Today I gave in. This buy, thought seemingly impulse, was well calculated. Am I making sense? Must be the caffeine. P.S. Lori — I found my beans. Unless I can get more of that Benguet coffee, I’ve stuck with…

Dive Gear Review: UWATEC Aladin TEC 2G Computer
Perhaps the only “bad” thing I can say about this dive computer is it’s apparent awkwardness if worn casually. But that’s the price of P20,000.00 for an Aladin Tec 2G, acquired several weeks ago.

DiscOVIries Week 1 Winner: Nina Fuentes!
The only criteria I had for choosing the winner for the first round was that the workstation should have stood out amongst the others. So in a way, it was like grading on a bell curve because choosing the winner heavily relied on what everyone else would submit. Amidst the geeky workstation submissions, Nina’s stood…
