Crestor

Once while surfing the internet, I came across an article that elaborates well a certain wonder drug. I browsed some more and learned that the drug in focus was Crestor. It is a medicine that works wonders and treat high cholesterol and prevent cardiovascular diseases. It is for people with high LDL cholesterol, high total cholesterol, and triglycerides. I even thought of giving this medicine to a friend who has been suffering from having high cholesterol. However what amazed me was the innumerable of Crestor lawsuit that entails the chronic use of the drug. Few people were giving positive testimonials to the drug though but they are far outnumbered by those who weren’t at all happy with the drug and in fact, suffering from its harmful side effects.

Digital Scrapbooking Day

The digital scrapbooking world has been going crazy since last night as the Digital Scrapbooking Day is celebrated this weekend. Many stores have been offering irresistible sales, freebies and events and all of my digiscrapping friends are having a hard time controlling their shopping spree. Too bad, my laptop hasn't gotten fixed (it conked out again) yet. I can't join the fun and digiscrap away. But on the contrary, my paypal wallet is smiling because it won't endure any hard beating from any shopping madness. Perhaps, I'll just have to content myself downloading freebies and reading tutorials not about grow eyelashes but about Photoshop techniques and tricks.

And since I cannot shop, let me just pass the itch to shop to you by posting the sale announcements from some of my fave digistores.
